That's just the alternate package name guessing algorithm
failing to guess the correct alternate package name. All
it does is a string based match -- and pkgdb seems to think
that 'openldap-server' is a better match to 'openldap-client'
than openldap-sasl-client'.
Just tell pkgdb 'no' and then tell it the correct alternate
package name. (You can use tab completion there; very handy)
After that, things should go smoothly.
You can use the ALT_PKGNAME hash in /usr/local/etc/pkgtool.conf
to give the correct hint to pkgdb and portupgrade automatically:
ALT_PKGDEP = {
'openldap-client-2.3.*' = 'openldap-sasl-client-2.3.*',
}
The ALT_PKGDEP hash can be used to autocorrect most of the things
that pkgdb would question you about -- see the comments in the
pkgtools.conf file.

Matthew

Re: Issue with freebsd 6.2 and disk drives

I was getting the following error flooding my dmesg: ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=* so they replaced all the hardware in the box. Still, with entirely different hardware, I am getting the same error: ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (1 retry left) LBA=106848207 The hard drive in the new box is: ad4: 76319MB Seagate ST3808110AS 3.AAD at ata2-master SATA150 I recommend installing smartmontools and running the 'long' self test a few times on your drives -- as the SMART stuff is handled within the drive firmware the test results won't be confused by problems with other parts of the system. Running smartd and scheduling regular disk self-tests is something I strongly recommend as good system management practice. Before I start telling them that this new hardware is also bad, I figured I would see if there are any known problems/bugs with 6.2, or possibly a known compatibility issue with SATA (and maybe if I should ask them to switch to IDE). There's no such generic problem with SATA, either with AMD64 or I386. What you can run into are: (a) problems with particular motherboard chipsets and (b) cabling troubles. (a) For instance the chipset on this motherboard: http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/motherboard/Opteron1000/HT1000/H8SSL-i2.cfm (which uses a ServerWorks HT1000 chipset) always generates complaints that the disks are connected with 'non ATA133 cables' (of course they are -- it's a SATA II system...) and that it is limiting the speed to UDMA66. Whereas this board: http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/motherboard/Opteron1000/MCP55/H8SMi-2.cfm uses the nVidia MCP55 Pro Chipset which just works, although you'll need the nfe driver from 7.0 in order to use the on-board ethernet. You can usually pick out the motherboard and/or chipsets used on your hardware from /var/run/dmesg.boot, or failing that try installing dmidecode from ports. (b) Cabling troubles are purely down to the build quality achieved by your supplier. Generally with SATA cables what seems to work best is to use cables that are as short as possible given that the cables should have at least an inch of slack in them, and also the cables should neither be strained, sharply kinked nor twisted. Look out for the practice of gathering a large bight of excess cable into a loop and securing it with cable ties -- while not intrinsically bad, this needs to be gone with care, as simply tightening the cable ties too much can crush the SATA cables and interfere with signal propagation. Also double check that the cables are securely plugged in at each end -- SATA cables should have a positive click-into-place action.

If you do buy something else though, have a look at /usr/ports/sysutils/nut This is the network ups tools program that supports a variety of UPSes and is very configurable.

Re: samba and IPv6
Hi! You can find more about the status of Samba and IPv6 in my presentation from SambaXP (see http://www.ipv6consultancy.com/ipv6blog/?p=8). I have also provide a patch that enables IPv6 in the Samba4 server. A Howto and the Samba4 IPv6 patch can be found at http://www.ipv6consultancy.com/ipv6blog/?p=12. There is no patch for Samba3 yet. However, Samba3 can be made to serve CIFS over IPv6 using a superdaemon or a port forwarder (see my presentation for details). Let me know if you have any questions and good luck. It will be sometime before Samba3 and Samba4 have full support for IPv6. You might be interested to know that the Linux CIFS client has IPv6 support in the development tree.

FreeBSD superkaramba
Are there any superkaramba themes designed for FreeBSD? I've tried a few, but they all seem to be designed for Linux (hda eth0 etc). Also, any pointers to where their configuration files are stored under the fbsd file hierarchy would be gratefully received. I've seen some under ~/.superkaramba, but they only seem to allow size and position settings. -- Thanks, John. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: UFS(2, 3 ?) vs ZFS.
It could be done. At the present time ZFS is not really suitable on systems without a lot of memory (I'd recommend at least 1GB). It is also very hard to tune it to perform well on i386 because of VM and address space issues. It might be possible to address these over time. 1GB for disk and filesystem? nice joke :) even worse than windows. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Building amd64
Hello I would like to build a computer using a Intel Duo 2 Core processor, my first attempted at finding a compatible motherboard failed. I do not remember having the same difficulties six years ago when I built my last computer. Does any one have any advice. I have looked at the hardware notes for 6.2 Release http://www.freebsd.org/releases/6.2R/hardware-amd64.html#PROC and also the list of mother boards that were tested, kinda tested by other users . I am think of building two, maybe computers, one which will replace my two PIII as a intranet toy (web server, groupware?, wireless AP, gateway/firewall), multimedia center (Mythtv, Mp3 player). The second will be a desktop that will hopefully be run multiple virtual OS using win4bsd until Xen is available. I would perfer a microATX, I live in a small apartment. Is there a manufacturer anyone would recommend? A chipset that is support better than any other? Does it come down to trial and error? Intel does have some board which support Linux, at the very worst I can use that until I can get Freebsd working. My first failed attempt was an Abit Fatal1ty F-190HD with a ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 it does not boot any open source system, Freebsd x86/amd64, kunbuntu x64, or opensolaris. I am going to borrow a copy of Windows Vista to verify it is a driver not faulty hardware.

Here's a less analytical way that may work if you have marginal signal strength: 1) Connect wirelessly 2) Start pinging a site near you (to mimimize delay effects over the larger internet) 3) Move the antenna around to see where ping delays minimize across Similarly, you can do the same thing with traceroute which is even better because it shows delay at each step of the route. This is a quick-and-dirty scheme that may not always provide best results, but it's easy and a good way to get started For the use of others: By using a graphical meter on a Windows box, I tested different orientations of my Access Point. Empirically I have found: you get this when the Access Point is off: Comms quality/signal/noise:[ 0 0 1 ] dBm Coms Quality:[ 0 -100 -99 ] this is when the signal is poor: Comms quality/signal/noise:[ 14 27 1 ] dBm Coms Quality:[ 7 -91 -99 ] and this when signal is better: Comms quality/signal/noise:[ 52 83 1 ] dBm Coms Quality:[ 26 -73 -99 ] So, in the absence of anything better information, I'd recommend you maximise each of the numbers shown in the above categories shown by the command: wicontrol wi0 Doug points out that these numbers only appear with some drivers - mine is an INTERSIL HFA384x using the wi driver on FreeBSD 6.1 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I believe it is because the processor is overheated, but I'm not sure. Is there a way to check this from software? I would like to install a hardware monitor program that can log out processor temperature in every minute. The mainboard is ASUS P5LD2, if that matters. Is there a software out there that can do this for me? Of course I could buy a new processor fan (or a water cooling system) but I do not want to spend money before I make sure that is the root of the problem. Thanks, Laszlo Believe it or not, my computer had the same behavoir because it was very dirty. It took 3 cans of compressed air to clean it. Once clean, it worked perfectly. compressed air? nonsense, I prefer the cleaned-out-reverse-shopvac method ;) I use my 60 gallon shop air compressor and about 100 psi on a blowgun. Making sure to use the non-oiled air feed, of course.

Regular Freezes
Yo; My FreeBSD 6.1 gateway box keeps freezing totally. It seems to happen when there's a large burst of network traffic on my internal interface (i.e. download, flash movie, I-radio). I've already done a memtest, and it came out clean. Any ideas as to what logs might help me trouble shoot?

you can always use ktrace

I'm afraid my background in this area is too thin to go that far...
ktrace is similar to strace, but part of BSD.

removing references to alternative keyboard mappings has worked for me. - can
you paste here your xorg.conf and your xkbd conf?

Xorg build problem - font-misc-misc
Hi, I've _almost_ successfully upgraded to 7.2 xorg. For some reason, I'm getting a failure when building font-misc-misc and this stops other crucial ports getting built. At present, if I try to run 'X' I get the dreaded cannot find font fixed' error. I sync'd my ports tree again this morning but the problem remained. Here's the output from the build error I get: /usr/local/bin/bdftopcf -t nil2.bdf | gzip nil2.pcf.gz 4x6.bdf /usr/local/lib/X11/fonts/util/map-ISO8859-1 ISO8859-1 4x6.bdf:No such file or directory *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11-fonts/font-misc-misc/work/font-misc-misc-1.0.0. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/x11-fonts/font-misc-misc.
