They are backwards compatible formats, so why do you want to change? If you are concerned that the old password hash is insecure (if it's an ancient DES password, this is true), then you will need to generate a new password for each affected account. One way to do this is by using password expiry to force a change on next user login (see e.g. pw(8)).

I know this has been covered before, but the search mechanism at the mailing list archive doesn't seem to work (zero matches for the word: password). I've got a 5.3 system and a 6.2 system.

Your ISP *HAS* put the route in for your public block of IPs, but for whatever reason, that route isn't propagating through their network. Obviously I couldn't say about that. I'm thinking it's still all about routing. Problem is it's possibly more complex, since the local Telco has the DSLAM and the ISP is just "leasing" over the top.

gimp-2.2.15,2 crashes after gtk-2.10.13 upgrade
After upgrading gtk-2.10.12_2 to gtk-2.10.13, gimp keeps crashing with the following error message: The program 'gimp' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 57475 error_code 3 request_code 39 minor_code 0) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) (script-fu:80640): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read(): error This can be easily reproduced by starting gimp, creating a new window, and trying to draw something into it: immediate crash with the error message above. serial # can chage, but everything else remains the same. Nothing else except the gtk upgrade changed in-between port trees as of 2007-06-12 and 2007-06-14, including the version of gimp (gimp-2.2.15,2, gimp-app-2.2.15_1,1), which didn't change either. The only change was gtk-2.10.12_2 to gtk-2.10.13. Incidentally, the jumpy gtk savebox doesn't repeatedly grow and shrink horizontally anymore under fluxbox now: the gtk upgrade seems to have fixed this; but now gimp is borked.

Need help with GNU assembly
Hi All,
I am trying to use GNU assembly. I am trying simple thing such as ,
moving content of memory location into general purpose register (ax).
I have following code :
struct context {
unsigned long mask[8];
} CONTEXT;
int main()
{
CONTEXT sr;
sr.mask[5] = 0x8FED;
__asm ( "movw %0, %ax" : : "m" (*(unsigned
short*)sr.mask[5]) );
return 0;
}
Compiler complains with error "bad substitution directive in asm
instruction".
I tried changing the code something like this :
__asm ( "movw %0, %ax" : : "m" (*(unsigned short*)sr.mask+5) );
Still error is same, then I tried following:
Unsigned short* ptemp = &sr.mask[5];
__asm ( "movw %0, %ax" : : "m" (*(unsigned short*)ptemp) );
But still no luck, compiler reported same error as mentioned above
Any help is appreciated. Please let me know where I am mistake.
Thanks,
-- Kiran P.

(OT?) Anyone wanna address my ISP's issues? [CIDR/BGP question]
[OT Warning] Not related to FBSD, other than the use of ping(8), which is working as expected, apart from the fact that the network *isn't*. If anyone cares to give an opinion, TIA! I'm trying to get a land-based (DSL) solution to my rather remote office. Found a provider, they (supposedly) made arrangements with the local telco, sent me the DSL modem, etc. I set it up as instructed, but we're not getting TCP/IP here on it. Hours and hours of frustrating hold music on the telephone, WWW-chat sessions that get nowhere, etc. The modem "sync" is fine, but, as one tech put it, "sync but no surf". It's been this way for > 2 weeks. The DSL modem's outside (static) IP is n.n.n.70, the gw is n.n.n.69, and the mask is 255.255.255.252. From inside, I can ping .70, but not .69 (and, needless to say, nothing else, either). From the outside, it's the other way 'round. Traceroute (from outside) shows different endpoints for the two addresses (that is, the last hop before .69 is one router, and, when looking for .70, it's another router (but not the one that leads to .69)). If I did my CIDR homework correctly, the net is n.n.n.68/30. Using "BGPlay" (http://bgplay.routeviews.org/bgplay/), I get the message: "The selected data sources have no information on prefix n.n.n.68/30. Please check that this prefix is globally announced." My question: shouldn't it be 'announced', if the ISP intends to route me TCP/IP traffic? I apologize for my ignorance, but BGP isn't something I figured to need to know at this point in my life (although, it doesn't hurt to learn, usually) Thanks again, Kevin Kinsey -- Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. -- George Bernard Shaw ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

syslog.conf questions..
Hello all, I am trying to have different cisco routers log to a different log file. The log file is located on a 6.2 box running the stock syslogd. For what it is worth I have nine of these, only three are shown syslogd is running with -n -vv -d at the moment.. I did not have to specify -a 10.20.250.54:* to allow it to log.. (is that part of the problem..?) But the question is.. I do get logs from the respective hosts in the log files that I have specified, but I do not understand why syslogd is also catching them in the original local7.* /var/log/router/3620.log when as far as I can tell they are setup correctly. below is the relevant portions of the syslog.conf.

I don't know if this will help you or not, but just this morning, I had a 5.4-PRERELEASE box that was giving me major issues (#1 being I could not compile anything), so I did the binary upgrade from a 6.2 CD. It only did base the first time, and subsequently did not boot. I then booted off of the 6.2 CD, mounted the hard disk into /, then proceeded with install. Instead of selecting 'Minimal' for distributions, I went in and manually added the base, and the GENERIC kernel, after that, I was up and running.

Thanks for the link to anholt's journal. This doesn't affect the 945G,
though, right?
Truth is best determined by examination of reality. If your 945G is
working then I would say it is unaffected.

Installing 6.2 from a 5.3 mini install CD...
Good Afternoon, Does anyone have any knowledge, good or bad, about installing 6.2-RELEASE from a 5.3-RELEASE mini install CD? The story is that I have a 5.3-RELEASE CD in my colo server in London (which I have BIOS serial support w/ terminal server), and I know in the installer you can specify the release name. I've tried to do this in VMware, I did a custom install, set the release name to 6.2-RELEASE, installed only base. However as FreeBSD has enabled an option for a SMP kernel, it didn't install a kernel and thus failed to boot. I was contimplating if I could install the kernel as a package or a non named distribution. Is there anything I can do, or do I have to send a CD down and hope my provider doesn't charge me to much? This'll teach me for not buying a CD-RW when I buy a new server... "What will I need one of them for, it's a colo server.".

Also, if you are running FreeBSD/amd64 and running a 32-bit binary under freebsd32 emulation, then it has 4GB of VA space rather than 3GB, so you can give it more MAXDSIZ. It's really up to the user to only use a maxdsiz that works. You can also adjust the hard limit before exec'ing a process that needs a smaller dsize and leave MAXDSIZ larger for other processes. Since it is dependent on things the compiler can't know about at the build time of the kernel, we just let the user set it to whatever and if they set it too high things break until they lower it. You can even set this at boot time via 'kern.maxdsiz' tunable in the loader w/o needing to recompile. -- John Baldwin ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Memory mannagment
At 01:15 AM 6/14/2007, cadastrosonline cadastrosonline wrote: First of all, "Each process has its own private address space. The address space is initially divided into three logical segments: text, data, and stack. " You would be wise to read up on Processors and assembly language programming. The concept of segments is part of assembly language programming and often is built into CPU's. In the case of the intel 80x86 line this is very true. To answer the questions: text is usually program code, and should not be modifiable stack is temporary storage of program values and variables data is data for the program, this defines variable used in a program But if the address is just something like 343556 then how does it really work? The memory is divided into segments is that what it means? Segments are kept separated by the CPU, and some treatment of segments can be enforced with some CPU's. Text being non-modifiable is possible using some CPU's. Some data segments can be read only as well. To address memory locations vary by CPU and even by the mode the CPU is running in. Some are linear address, but not necessarily. "The data segment contains the initialized and uninitialized data portions of a program" In the case of a modifiable data segment, it will contain initialized data, and non initialized data. initialized data looks like: int i=5; versus uninitalized data: int j; Is it talking about multithreading? I COULDNT FIND anything talking about how freebsd deals with multithreading, just found out it does it by man pthread. Threading is a separate topic. Segments and how they work predates multi-threading. Tell me anything else interesting to know about memory mannagment, does it use any algorithm to substitute a page when out of pages in memory? such as "second chance" "fifo" "lru" (last recently used) "nfu" (not frequently used) and so on? I am studying freebsd but sometimes I am out of ways to find out, yes I am reading the handbook about memory mannagment as you can see my quotes but sometimes I don't understand. Memory management varies by CPU and operating system. You would need to research each implementation to understand how it is handled in each case. Memory management should be transparent to application programers, and usually is only required for those programing device drivers and other hardware level devices. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

It looks to me like you don't have working dri/drm. You have to have
direct rendering working before you can get beryl working. AFAIK, drm
support for your chipset is not available in 6.1-RELEASE, and the drm
module is what provides the agpgart device.
sys/dev/drm/drm_pciids.h on 6-STABLE from about February shows this:
#define i915_PCI_IDS \
{0x8086, 0x3577, 0, "Intel i830M GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2562, 0, "Intel i845G GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x3582, 0, "Intel i852GM/i855GM GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2572, 0, "Intel i865G GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2582, 0, "Intel i915G"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2592, 0, "Intel i915GM"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2772, 0, "Intel i945G"}, \
{0x8086, 0x27A2, 0, "Intel i945GM"}, \
{0, 0, 0, NULL}
So you have to have the i915 module loaded to use this chipset. Though
the i915 driver was ported for 6.1-RELEASE there was no Makefile
included, and it never really worked until after 6.2-RELEASE.
Personally, I'm tracking 6-STABLE and I've had drm working with an i845G
since February of this year when anholt MFC'd a load of i915 drm
changes. See this log for more info:
http://anholt.livejournal.com/34566.html
in an email on may 19th anholt indicated that there is no working
support for the 965G
Thanks for the link to anholt's journal. This doesn't affect the 945G,
though, right?

Sorry, that should read 'samba_enable="yes"'
No, I do not want samba running all the time. Only in certain
situations. Apparently, the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba
{start,stop,restart} script does not start samba. I do not know why.
If I start smbd directly, it starts up and I can browse/connect using
smbclient. So, I think that the problem is fixed, for the most part.
I'm still wondering why the system didn't start when using the samba
script in the local rc.d directory.
Oh, my user problem was due to the fact that the user I was trying to
add to samba didn't exist on the server yet. I had to do "pw useradd
..." first. That's what I get for working on so many machines that I
can't keep track.
Thanks,
Andy
Don't forget to cc: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org
The rc script at /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba follows the FreeBSD rcng
scheme, if the rcvar 'samba_enable' is not set to 'yes', then the script
will not start or stop the samba process.
Run the script without any commands to see usage. To check the status of
rcvars that control the script's behavior, run the script with the
'rcvar' argument; e.g.
~/> /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba rcvar
# samba
$samba_enable=YES
# nmbd
$nmbd_enable=YES
# smbd
$smbd_enable=YES
# winbindd
$winbindd_enable=NO
Note that nothign is stopping you from running smbd and nmbd manually,
the rc control script simply automates the control of the daemon for you.

Free BSD font
HI guys I currently run a Free BSD server using plesk 8.1 - not that this has anything to do with my question! But i'm putting together a corporate ID for a charity, and have been looking for a rounded font. So far i've tried the usual suspects (VAG, arial & helvetica rounded) but not found anything that really works. Can you let me know what font you've used for the main Free BSD logo - I think it's really very nice and perfectly understated.

Linux and solaris are better supported and that's a pity. The nv driver works better than the vesa driver IMO -- it provides much better 2D support than the vesa driver. Absolutely. But nVidia beats the hell out of the nv driver. Since you're not willing to do the research, I'll give you the reader's digest version. nVidia's waiting on FreeBSD to implement key features in the kernel in order to properly support the amd64 and i386 + PAE platforms, because memory mapping and access isn't there yet in the FreeBSD kernel.

Static pages do show the actual file size, checking here, but of course
any dynamic content (php or whatever) makes size indeterminate. Bob,
check the size shown as served for your ordinary "/" page requests?

If not too much modified, a 'diff apache.conf.installed apache.conf'
might be less wieldy and easier to grok ..
You do and will regularly see all sorts of tricks tried, aimed at
various vulnerabilities, mostly on M$ systems, and life's too short to
get too bothered by the 'background radiation' .. trust the security
teams (both apache and freebsd) to post about and deal with new vulns.

Yeah. Anything invoking a 40[0-9] response, among other things, makes
it to the error log, but even errors usually send some sort of response,
and if in doubt (eg on would-be proxy requests) apache will serve "/"

I learned quite a bit on the "Sig > 11" links given earlier. This is drifting well past getting FreeBSD to behave under load on it, but I googled "AMD K6 wait states" and got heaps of hits, including the above. Basically, wait states delay the processor long enough to read or write to comparatively slow memory devices; better to wait than burn. You mentioned later trying some 100MHz memory, but you'll either need a slower bus speed than 100MHz (or more / some wait states) for that, and would be better off finding more PC133 RAM.

The verdict is in! The problem was heat. Before swapping out memory, I turned on the system to see what the fan was doing. Nothing was the answer. It wasn't spinning at all. I went digging through my old hardware and found a fan of the right type and dimensions that fit nicely, and more importantly worked. So, before swapping out memory I tried it. The build of cvsup-without-gui still failed, but not due to a hang or sig11 problems. It died for something else, and since I'm just going to use csup, I'm not going to worry about it. After updating my ports and source trees with csup, I successfully completed a compile of vim (to include gvim which required X to be compiled and installed). And then I successfully completed a "make buildworld" of the sources. Tonight, I'm going to rebuild the kernel and do the installs. I can eliminate some of the confusion everyone was having when I said it was a K6 700mHz CPU. It wasn't a K6 at all. When I pulled off the heat sink, I saw that the chip was stamped "Duron." I had seen 700mHz on either the BIOS or the dmesg output during boot, and because the case had a K6 sticker on it, assumed that was the CPU type. At any rate, I want to thank everyone for the great suggestions especially that link to the sig 11 stuff for gcc compiling. That was very informative. Looks like everything is working ok now.

apache deining robots.txt 404
I just moved FBSD 6.2 / apache-1.3.37.1 into production. In the httpd-access,log I see all the search engines requests for robots.txt getting a 404 code. The previous production world was FBSD 6.0 /apache-1.3.33_2 and all the search engines requests for robots.txt got a 200 code. I use the same httpd-conf in both. So the only thing changed is the version of FBSD and apache. Has anybody else noticed this? How can I allow robots.txt to be handled like before?? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: beryl/agpgart/i810/Intel 950 GMA
Written by Eduardo Viruena Silva on 06/13/07 21:07>>
Hello Guys,
I have an Intel 950 GMA video card,
built-in in my computer's motherboard.
My motherboard is D945NT.
I installed FreeBSD-6.2-RELEASE, and cvsupdated
it to FreeBSD-6.2-RELEASE-p5.
Installed my ports and cvsupdated them.
I found "beryl" in /usr/ports/x11-wm, it
seemed to depend on Xorg-7.2
I successfully upgrade Xorg-6.9 to Xorg-7.2.
I also compiled beryl, everything seems to be ok.
..and I have tried to make it work, I give up.
The problem seems to be that X is
trying to find /dev/agpgart, according
to my /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

available
for allocation. Using pre-allocated memory only.
(--) I810(0): Pre-allocated VideoRAM: 7932 kByte
I have seen beryl working on Gentoo Linux,
/dev/agpgart is present in an identical system,
and it seems to me that it is not a problem
of memory allocation.
so...
What do I have to do to create /dev/agpgart?
My kernel has
device agp
present.
Thank you in advance.
Eduardo.

It looks to me like you don't have working dri/drm. You have to have
direct rendering working before you can get beryl working. AFAIK, drm
support for your chipset is not available in 6.1-RELEASE, and the drm
module is what provides the agpgart device.
sys/dev/drm/drm_pciids.h on 6-STABLE from about February shows this:
#define i915_PCI_IDS \
{0x8086, 0x3577, 0, "Intel i830M GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2562, 0, "Intel i845G GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x3582, 0, "Intel i852GM/i855GM GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2572, 0, "Intel i865G GMCH"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2582, 0, "Intel i915G"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2592, 0, "Intel i915GM"}, \
{0x8086, 0x2772, 0, "Intel i945G"}, \
{0x8086, 0x27A2, 0, "Intel i945GM"}, \
{0, 0, 0, NULL}
So you have to have the i915 module loaded to use this chipset. Though
the i915 driver was ported for 6.1-RELEASE there was no Makefile
included, and it never really worked until after 6.2-RELEASE.
Personally, I'm tracking 6-STABLE and I've had drm working with an i845G
since February of this year when anholt MFC'd a load of i915 drm
changes. See this log for more info:

Blame nVidia.. Can you tell me why there's no 64bits nVidia driver for FreeBSD? I know there is a 32bits one. I used it on fbsd too. It used to need special settings (agp). Use of nvidia driver comes first hand, so what kind of research do you mean? If I upgrade my solaris box it starts 64bits on AMD or 32bits on a 32b machine. Including Xorg-7.2; including the nVidia driver (all 64bits). You can download it on the nVidia site. But not for FreeBSD. And that's what I 'hate' (like I wrote). What's the fault in that reasoning? Linux and solaris are better supported and that's a pity. > The nv driver works better than the vesa driver IMO -- it provides > much better 2D support than the vesa driver. Absolutely.

Can freebsd-update update kernels with option IPFIREWALL_FORWARD
Greetings, Several weeks ago I tried to change the way my FreeBSD servers are updated. Instead of the lengthy procedure of building FreeBSD from sources, I tried to use freebsd-update. On two of the servers, I ran into a problem. Obviously GENERIC kernel with ipfw module loaded couldn't provide the functionality of a kernel, compiled with IPFIREWALL_FORWARD option. So I've returned to my old ways of updating, but I forgot the crontab entry which invoked freebsd-update. To my surprise, yesterday I received a message, that said that updates are downloaded for my kernel (currently FreeBSD 6.2p3 - yeah, I'm lazy ...). Does this mean that freebsd-update team builds kernels with IPFIREWALL_FORWARD now? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Amarok works just fine when using the OSS ouput plugin, for example. So there's no need to use arts at all.

Eg, my setup is like this: 172.30.0.0/16 Public IP Peer IP LAN switch/AP --- FreeBSD Router--- DSL ST Peer Effectively, the speedtouch just hands everything off to the bsd router, which in turn knows nothing about ADSL or PPP, and just uses the standard em(4) network driver.

Tell me anything else interesting to know about memory mannagment, does it use any algorithm to substitute a page when out of pages in memory? such as "second chance" "fifo" "lru" (last recently used) "nfu" (not frequently used) and so on? I am studying freebsd but sometimes I am out of ways to find out, yes I am reading the handbook about memory mannagment as you can see my quotes but sometimes I don't understand. Thanks in advance. This question is better suited for the hackers@ list, and before doing that I suggest buying/checking out a copy of the book The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System. Many of your questions can be possibly answered better by taking a computer architecture and/or operating systems course, as many of the questions and ideas you have most likely apply to real-time operating systems, including Linux, OSX, Solaris and even (gasp) Windows, not just FreeBSD. Some of my 2 cents: Threading is known as LWP (Light-weight processes). Some differences are present, but the basic semantics of what one deems as non-threaded programs (processes), also applies to threads. Sharing, scheduling, and overall applied load are the overall big differences present in a threaded system, when compared to a procedural only system.
