sed -e 18q
that is, quit after processing line 18.

The manual page explains sed in a very good way. For sure, better
than I could describe it here. You'd better read it.

Yes.
 -i extension
 Edit files in-place, saving backups with the specified extension.
 If a zero-length extension is given, no backup will be saved.  It
 is not recommended to give a zero-length extension when in-place
 editing files, as you risk corruption or partial content in situ-
 ations where disk space is exhausted, etc.

No, it's the same. Some sed operation are trivial to read/write,
others aren't.

Ok, that change the problem, but I think tcpdump is still usefull, only if the 
the problem is caused when a user copy one huge file in one time, this 
because I assume 1 socket is created for each file copied (I am not an expert 
in NFS)

In computer B run this command (piped) as root

tcpdump -c 100 -nq dst port nfs and dst host serverB
nawk 'BEGIN {FS="[ .]"}{print $8}'
nawk '{packets[$1]++} END{for (ip in packets){print packets[ip], ip}}'
sort -rn

In the last line will appear socket number that generate more packets, 
something like this:

59891

To know who has that socket, run

# sockstat -4c | grep ":59891"
USER COMMANDPID   FD PROTO  LOCAL ADDRESS FOREIGN ADDRESS
martin   kdeinit1173  9  tcp4   192.168.45.25:59891   192.168.45.43:2049

The first column is the user, lets see what is doing

# ps -wxU martin

You mean windows (for the easy), NN.

If the problem is caused, because the user is copying a folder

cp  ~/MySmallFiles/*  /serverB/dest/

maybe, each file will create a different socket, because of that, you will 
need to translate each socket to a user before counting the packets, I think 
that is a job for perl, phyton or something like that.

Bart and Chris,

  The problem might be that the 3ware driver uses a 32 bit "int" to
represent
a file size.  In FreeBSD, stat() ftruncate() lseek() and
friends which are based on "strut stat" had this limitation under FreeBSD
4.xx.

  Note line# 821 of twe_freebsd.c the driver:

sc->twed_disk->d_maxsize = (TWE_MAX_SGL_LENGTH - 1) * PAGE_SIZE;
sc->twed_disk->d_sectorsize = TWE_BLOCK_SIZE;
sc->twed_disk->d_mediasize = TWE_BLOCK_SIZE *
(off_t)sc->twed_drive->td_size;
sc->twed_disk->d_fwsectors = sc->twed_drive->td_sectors;

that off_t also appears elsewhere.

  I'm not a driver programmer but I'd bet the driver hasn't been updated
for 64 bit FreeBSD.

No, because most of these files are between 40 and 50 lines.  I
only care about the first 30 or 40; everything below has to be
deleted.  By hand, using vi, I might type :31,$d  that fixes 
that one file.   Of course, I could simply edit in "19" for
"10" above.  It would be more savvy to understand the sed syntax.

I use the attach a CD Rom method on many servers I have built and it

Sometimes you can load FreeBSD 7 on an HD on another box successfully,

There are several options.

No, you need this one .. or at least, it's what worked for me.  From my

# without, 'noretry' was ENABLED (so no redial!)
set bundle disable noretry

Hmm, well 'set bundle disable noretry' is what worked for me here.  Are
you sure you restarted mpd afresh after changing that?  I recall having
found something in update/changelog notes regarding the default value
having changed for this, and after showing numerous values via console.

HP BL460c Blades - Anyone using these with FreeBSD in production?

2007-09-24 Thread Nikolai Schupbach

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone is using the HP BL460c Blades in production  
and if you have encountered any problems? We are looking at using  
them with the integrated HP Smart Array E200i controller with 2.5"  
onboard SAS drives.


Are there any problems with this controller? Is the performance good?  
I believe the only way to monitor the array is to watch kernel  
messages, is this correct?


Any information about the experience you have had with these blades  
would be much appreciated.


Sincerely,
Nikolai Schupbach

If you use gcc 4.2.2 to buildworld, it does a two stage build. It starts
by building the base gcc (4.2.1) withe the default compiler and then
builds it again using the just built compiler. You should be fine if you
define CC as gcc422. It will only be used to build the gcc4.2.1
compiler. Once that is done, the make system will use only the newly
built version.

If you have removed /usr/obj/*, you can speed the build with -DNO_CLEAN.
(There is nothing to clean, but make will still try.) Since there is
nothing to clean, making cleandir and cleanworld looks unnecessary,
too. 

Unless you have a 6 core system, -j7 is probably excessive. Both my own
tests and those of others show that having one more build thread than
there are processors seems to be the sweet spot. (I don't recall if
anyone has tested at over 6 cores, though.)

I think I understand the build system, but I am far from a make(1) guru,
so. if I misunderstand any of it, hopefully those who are will chime in
with the right information.

Here's an update on my odd problem.  Thanks to Don B for some hints

System is a Tyan Thunder K8SE motherboard with dual Opteron 250  
2.4GHz CPUs and a 3Ware 9550SX-4LP PCI Express four port RAID

Latest BIOS and firmware on mobo and RAID controller.

We've narrowed the problem down to files that are > 4GB.  Anytime we  
have a file that's > 4GB, we get inconsistent checksums, can't  
uncompress it, etc.  Files < 4GB are fine.


So is this a RAID controller issue?  A filesystem problem?  All hints  
appreciated.


How are you getting the files on the system?  Network transfer? Direct 
copy from a disc?


What filesystem is it you're using?

3ware is well supported under Linux, from what I can tell and what I've 
experienced, and can't imagine that a manufacturer with a good track 
record of driver support for Linux for so long would not support FreeBSD 
as well.

problem upgrading

2007-09-24 Thread Keith Seyffarth

When trying to re-install ruby on my system, I receive this error:

On FreeBSD before 6.2 ports system unfortunately can not set default
X11BASE by itself so please help it a bit by setting
X11BASE=${LOCALBASE} in make.conf.
On the other hand, if you do wish to use non-default X11BASE, please
set variable USE_NONDEFAULT_X11BASE.

However, even if I edit /etc/make.conf and add either
X11BASE=${LOCALBASE} or X11BASE=/usr/X11R6, I still get this
error.

Any suggestions or recommendations on how to get ruby installed?

Probably because you were forced.

I was never forced to admin sendmail and I have a lot of fun
with it, frankly.  I even ran UUCP with it for a few years.

What I find the most "unfun" part of administering a mailserver,
to be perfectly frank, is the subsidiary programs.  For example,
can anyone explain why clamav has suddenly decided to consume 70% of CPU
at about 15 seconds to scan a simple 4K message on a server I have
with a 3Ghz dual-core CPU?  I find programs like clamav, spamassassin,
dspam, mailscanner, etc. etc. to be big black boxes, with ugly
configuration files and senseless internals, but that are nevertheless
critical to handling mail on a large scale today.  Far more critical,
I might add, than the MTA and local delivery agents.

sed question...

2007-09-24 Thread Gary Kline
My earlier post about deleting the first N lines was answered by
this one-liner site {below}.   I wasn't including any
redirection; doing so finally resolved the problem.  Now I need
to delete every line from the 19th or so to the last line.
Question one, can anybody explain the following syntax?  What do
"P", "D" "ba" represent, in other words?


 # delete the last 10 lines of a file
 sed -e :a -e '$d;N;2,10ba' -e 'P;D'   # method 1
 sed -n -e :a -e '1,10!{P;N;D;};N;ba'  # method 2


Question two, can sed do its thing inline?

thanks in advance,

gary

USB 2.0 PCI card for FreeBSD 5.4?

2007-09-24 Thread Roger B.A. Klorese
Does anyone know one or two PCI USB cards that are compatible with 
FreeBSD 5.4?


(Please let's hold off on the "upgrade, you fool" messages -- the cycle is:
- install USB 2.0 card
- back up to USB drive
- upgrade
...and backing up 75GB at 1MB/sec isn't gonna fly.)

Hello,

I installed that.

And it did the trick.

I just don't want to take the risk now.

I did these steps

rm -r /usr/obj/*
cd /usr/src
make cleandir
make cleanworld
make -j7 buildworld

I'm too worried, I may get broken world now.

Shall I recopy libgcc_* from /obj again and rebuild the world again?
since current libgcc_* is made by the gcc42 latest port.

Any hints?

Yeah, agree with you and Chad.   I bought a T600E in 2003;
*total* cost for my 400Mz, 12GB-drive was $366, including maxing 
out the memory to 288K and adding a 10/100 NIC.   And shipping.
Runs fine, good remote sever, and I'll buy a 1.0-1.5+ ThinkPad
next summer.  This is one thing that IBM got right.

2007-09-24 Thread Jerry
Hi All,

I am wondering if there is already written (in the ports) some utility 
that would either periodically and/or on boot up, take note of if the
machine is connected to the net and if so, send some information to a
configured address giving some basic information such as date/time
and the network address where it is connected.   

The intent would be to put this in laptops/notebooks belonging to an
organization/business to track where they were, especially if they
were stolen.   I know, if they got in to the hands of professional
theft ring, the first thing they would do is wipe them, but it could
help track them otherwise.

If there is an existing port, I have no idea what to look for or which
category to look in, so some clue would be appreciated.

Thanks,

jerry

sed commands like 'd' take a pair of 'addresses'.

I don't know what $1,155 means, but if you mean delete the first 155
lines, then this should be easy:

sed -e '1,155d'

The second part (deleting the last 25 lines) may be slightly trickier,
as you don't know that you are going to hit end-of-file until you
actually hit it, so some sort of bufferring is required :-/

There are patches to stop that.  Look at the mail/qmail-spamcontrol port.
It will install a patched version of qmail that can refuse to accept mail
to non-existing addresses instead of bouncing them as qmail normally does.

Update on data corruption with Tyan/3Ware

2007-09-24 Thread Chris Boyd
Here's an update on my odd problem.  Thanks to Don B for some hints  
that helped us start looking in a better directions.


System is a Tyan Thunder K8SE motherboard with dual Opteron 250  
2.4GHz CPUs and a 3Ware 9550SX-4LP PCI Express four port RAID  
controller running in RAID 5.  Disks are 4x Seagate 500GB SATA.  4GB  
Memory.


Latest BIOS and firmware on mobo and RAID controller.

FreeBSD 6.2 AMD64 with all patches as of 9-21-2007

We've narrowed the problem down to files that are > 4GB.  Anytime we  
have a file that's > 4GB, we get inconsistent checksums, can't  
uncompress it, etc.  Files < 4GB are fine.


So is this a RAID controller issue?  A filesystem problem?  All hints  
appreciated.

Try disabling USB options in the BIOS of the computer and see what
happens. Usually by pressing the Del, F2 or F10 key on your PC after the
post beep, see the Dell manual for instructions on how to enter the
BIOS. If install works after disabling, you can try re-enabling after
you've installed the system and/or done updates.

man ipfw  and search for MAC

Note that you need to set a sysctl for layer 2 - which is also

And I just DID find some talking about MAC address filtering in the IPFW docs.

snapshots

2007-09-24 Thread Robert Fitzpatrick
I was looking into snapshots using the doc below to try and see if delta
copies with rsync matched data better if I take a snapshot of a file
system, mount it and rsync transfer the data. Right now, dumps don't
seem to match much data due to changes in the sequences and a very
active mail cache pgsql db.

http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/snapshot/

I created the snapshot and got it mounted, took a minute or so for each
to do this on my /usr ufs file system on FreeBSD 6.2 with 2GB RAM, dual

drives. In the midst of doing this, the currently running pgsql db,
remember I said it was very active amavisd-maia supporting two mail

these messages and things stopped responding well...

Sep 24 16:59:02 mx1 kernel: aac0: COMMAND 0xc6530fc0 TIMEOUT AFTER 38 SECONDS

Did a reboot, it tooks several minutes to start reboot after the
command. I even got some of these kernel messages after the reboot, not
until I rm -f the snapshot file did it stop. I am wondering how I need
to handle snapshots when trying this, especially if included in a
routine backup script? I haven't made it to the solution part of the
above doc yet, wanted to check here before I try anything again.

Also, haven't tested my rsync until tonight to see if the file system
transfer will make a difference in my ability to match data better. But
I'd still like use the snapshot as a backup solution.

Generally no, since IP FW works on IP level, not ethernet. That said, I just 
read about this:
http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/tagging.html#ethernet

I don't see a brconfig on FreeBSD though and don't know if there's something 
similar ported.

With this setup I'm not getting the ATI driver to work.  I want 1680x1050,

build of the world, recent portupgrade -af) and I'm using Xorg -configure for 
my xorg.conf.  I did the "mystical journal" to Xorg 7.2 on a previous rebuild 
and followed /usr/ports/UPDATING and there doesn't seem to be anything 
relevant in there which is more recent.


The symptoms are that when I try to startx the monitor goes into power saving 
mode and the keyboard becomes non-responsive (ctrl-alt-bs, ctrl-alt-f-keys, 
alt-f-keys, ctrl-alt-del no longer respond).  The power button on the front 
of the machines does to a successful ACPI power down so the machine isn't 
completely locked up, just the console.


You don't have a 1680x1050 mode declared in the 24-bit Screen section. 
Before you try that, though, rename your xorg.conf to something else and 
try starting X with no xorg.conf at all.  Some things are new to 7.3, 
and it wouldn't surprise me that -configure hasn't kept up with them.

Silly IPFW question.

Hi all,

I am sorry if this is a no-brainer 

Is there anyway to make a rule in IPFW that will match MAC addresses instead 
of IP or port numnbers (and no, I didnt see anything in the docs :-))

Probably the safest way:
pkg_add -r gcc-4.2.2_20070905.tbz

Then set CC and CXX in /etc/make.conf to point to the installed gcc 
in /usr/local. This should get you through the build-tools stage. If it 
creates issues later on, you should have a libgcc_* in /usr/obj. In fact, I 
highly recommend pressing ctrl-c after gcc has been built and copy the 
missing library from /usr/obj to /usr/lib then unset CC and CXX 
in /etc/make.conf and re-run buildworld.

I just looked on freebsd ftp servers, there's a package for amd64 arch and

I'm a huge fan of Thinkpads.  You can go wrong with them, though, if
you're unlucky.  Choose your model well.

In general, you'll want to stick to laptops with Intel graphics adapters
to get 3D acceleration support from among those choices.  Some newer
Thinkpads such as the T61 also offer nVidia adapters as an option, which
should also be reasonably well supported by FreeBSD.  Avoid Radeons
unless you don't care about 3D acceleration or like betting on the idea
that the r300 drivers will make it into FreeBSD's X.Org soon.

sed question[s]

2007-09-24 Thread Gary Kline
Hi,

I could probably do at least part of this with an ed shell
script, but sed is probaly more standard.  (I may have asked this
before, years back: FWIW. Anyhow, don't see it in my
~/Mail/freebsd files.)

How can I automagically delete from $1,155d  AND from the 
25th line from the bottom to the last line with sed?  I spent
hours last night, by-hand saving web files; now I want to get rid
of the cruft from them.  

Again, (I think) something like % sed -e 1,$155d < filefoo 
[[yes?]], but then the last part stumps me.


tthanks, y'all,

gary

I was the single monitor issue, on the single monitor it does not
reboot unless you set probe_all_gpu's *BUT* it does fail to reconize
all nVidia cards (so does nv)... as far I can tell neither drive
understands 64bit io space and PCI/AGP... the clue is the addr
conflicts that everyone seems to get... btw I think it might of fried
my 8k but at least gives me vesa with no weird video probs on the 5200
GT I have now (1024x768 ;-()).

portsclean should never touch anything out of /usr/local/and base gcc
should not depend on anything i

I forgot, but was there one person in the thread that has only 1 monitor 
attached to 1 card? Cause you're the 3rd I see with multiple monitor issues.
Ironically, we have one system with CRT + TV-OUT through one card, with no 
issues whatsoever (500GB HDD, DVDRW, rock on!). However I turned off Xinerama 
support from the get go and use TwinView.

With all the Xorg 7.3 issues, I have not gone that road nor plan to anytime 
soon.

I also think we've had all the different cards by now, a quatro, GeForce 5k, 
7k, 6k...

Maybe someone can build a WITNESS/DDB kernel, since dumping seems to be 
failing?

checking in from my HP NC6000, all hardware operational, no issues to speak 
of.  (p4 1.8, intel 2200 wireless, broadcom ethernet, intel sound).  also, 
the pushbutton to enable/disable the wireless works, but the hardware volume

If you mean: is it hanging on a read ... dunno.  Since the fsck's

I forced portsclean -L but why on the earth it did remove the gcc lib
since it's not installed by the ports?

Is there away to recover it now?

Sometimes, after a reboot, the video is bright and the resolution
small--large type.   Usually, the system clock seems normal.
Are there any tools to run to test the processor speed?  Any
other tests?  It's a new drive, somewhere around 160GB.  I never
ran any drive tests.  ...Yet!

What arguments did you give to portsclean? Specifically, did you tell it
to clean libraries (_L or --libclean)? Sounds like you yanked a library
out from under gcc. I tend to stick to -DC to avoid the possibility of
foot shooting. (I manage to do that too often, in any case.)

nvidia-driver rebooting machine on X startup

2007-09-24 Thread falz
I came across this thread on freebsd-questions after some searching on
google. I have the exact same issue as others here- if xorg is started
with 'nvidia' as the driver, instant reboot. However, my machine is a
100% fresh install with things compiled from source this weekend.
However, I did have to install some binary vncserver packages, but
they have since been removed.

I did the 'xorg' meta port which got me the current xorg-7.3_1. The
machine I did the install on was running Debian Unstable for about a
year without issue with the same hardware (two cards for 3 monitors):

Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia0:  mem
0xdd00-0xddff,0xb000-0xbfff,0xde00-0xdeff irq
16 at device 0.0 on pci1
Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia1:  mem
0xdb00-0xdbff,0xc000-0xcfff irq 18 at device 2.0 on
pci3
Sep 24 13:41:24 falz kernel: nvidia1: [GIANT-LOCKED]

I went through many of the steps people spoke of earlier in this
thread, which were some AGP workarounds that are mentioned in Chapter
9:

/usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver/work/NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86-100.14.11/doc/README

No matter what is done, always an instant reboot if I use the "nvidia"
driver in the xorg.conf. Out of curiosity, is anyone actively using
xorg-7.3_1 with nvidia-driver-100.14.11 and having it work?

I too am not quite sure what to look for in the output of 'ldconfig
-r', but I can see that there is nothing linked against any pre-xorg
7.x stuff there:

# ldconfig -R | grep X11 | wc -l
   0

Also, the person who had things linked that were stale appears to have
been having a different problem that does NOT cause a reboot:

So then it's between the Matrox and the G400-32MB.  Thanks.

You will need to obtain another copy of this library.  Either you could
download a 7.0 snapshot and extract it from that, or maybe just
reinstall if that is more trouble than you want to deal with.

Sorry Kris, I meant portsclean, and it deleted stuff it shouldn't for
the native GCC environment.


That sounds pretty odd, are you sure you hadn't made changes to your 
/lib (e.g. symlinking libgcc_s to a port version)?  It should not be 
touching anything under /lib at all.

The alternative is to put PXE ahead of the HD in the boot order, and 
call back to the deployment host at the end of installation (prior to 
reboot) to signal a DHCP reconfiguration.


It adds a PXE timeout to each boot; the upside is that replacing a 
wedging or otherwise broken install is just a matter of reconfiguring a 
DHCP server.


You could instead load pxegrub and have it boot from the disk instead
of waiting for the PXE timeout.  Or, if you're willing to accept a
network-booted loader, how about just having it load and boot the kernel
from the disk?


Someone suggested this approach, but it gets complicated when I add more 
benchmarking clients to the mix later in the project. I know I can add 
host-specific setup to dhcpd.conf, and it's possible to do similar 
things with NFS (I'm installing over NFS) to put the main server in 
charge of controlling the clients, but it gets complicated if they 
aren't rebooting synchronously. I'd rather have the clients be in charge 
of when they reinstall (e.g. when the distribution-building machine has 
completed the next set of install files).


I like Jan Grants idea, but it'll only work if FreeBSD crashes and 
reboots, not if it hangs, drops to debugger etc. Still, better than 
nothing! But until I have more time to play around, I'll let the clients 
commit their post-benchmarking suicide.

The freebsd laptop page is a nice resource, but it's a bit heavy on

Thanks,

Since it hasn't been mentioned, and it's sorta related, my vote goes  
toward the Apple Mac line of notebook computers.  While they're not  
running straight FreeBSD, it's pretty darn close.  I haven't been  
restricted in what I can do, and all the ACPI/power management stuff  
is pretty much guaranteed to work.  I find I've got more time to work  
and play, rather than tweaking my laptop so that it runs right, all  
the time.


Biggest down side is they're expensive compared to other laptops.

Mpd (3.x) & mpd4 config and differeces in reconnect/dial behaviour ?

Hi everyone!

Since upgrade from 3.x to 4.x I have to manually (re) open the bundle PPPoE
but I can't afford this system to be offline/needing manual intervention
from now on. When the connection times out mpd4 just won't reconnect..

For future ref: locate uses a cache, built weekly using periodic(8). Find 
searches the disk live, so locate is faster but can be over a week old, if 
your machine is off during weekly periodic (by default Saturday night at

Yes.

Now I've found libstdc++.so.6 in /usr/local/lib/gcc-4.2.2, I made a 
symlink to /usr/lib. After that it complained about a missing 
libgcc_s.so.1. When I symlinked this file also in /usr/lib OO starts up.

Now it only complaines about not having a en_US locale but that is a minor 
issue.

Thanks a lot for the help!

As for me, I have never had problems with running FreeBSD on Sony VAIO laptops. 
I use Sony PCG-TR3/B and all except motion eye (didn't tested) is working here. 
I had experience trying to get working FreeBSD at Amilo Pa2510, but had 
troubles with Radeon x1200 video-card. So you should look at laptops with intel 
videocards or ndidia.

Audio card is not configured properly.  Skype has noting to do with it 
as it would work out of box if the hardware is configured properly.  
Check your recording device, mixer level and similar. You also have to 
give permission permissions by editing /etc/devfs.conf


perm   /dev/dsp* 0666 (dsp stands for synthetic sound)
and probably the next one would not hurt
perm   /dev/pci* 0666


It would help if you tell us your set up (which audio card you use, 
which driver and so on before somebody can say something more).

Probably. I think you are talking about SMP performance. A few  years
ago FreeBSD had good performance on single CPUs, but didn't scale very
well onto machines with multiple CPUs, unlike Linux and Solaris. The
kernel wasn't really designed to work this way and a lot of the code was
protected by a single "Giant Lock". Companies like Yahoo and Hotmail
(pre-Microsoft) tended to use FreeBSD where the load could be shared
between many low-end machines.

The FreeBSD response was to make the kernel more SMP friendly with
finer-grained locking, and to bring-in the ULE scheduler. Dragonfly BSD
was a fork off 4.x by people who thought a more radical kernel rewrite
was needed. Their kernel avoids a lot of the locking problems by using
message queues.

As I understand it the locking problems were addressed in 5/6-current.
There are still problems with the ULE scheduler in 6.x, but they have
been fixed in 7-current, and things scale roughly as they should with
multiple cores/cpus.

You could instead load pxegrub and have it boot from the disk instead
of waiting for the PXE timeout.  Or, if you're willing to accept a
network-booted loader, how about just having it load and boot the kernel
from the disk?

what's the output of:
ls /var/db/pkg|grep gcc

and:
find /usr/local -name 'libstdc++*'

Btw, I assume you're running -stable, since on -current your libstdc++.so.6

But libstdc++.so.6 isn't under /usr/local, it's under

Ah, it uses GCC 4.2, which has libstdc++ v6. -stable has v5. Did gcc 4.2 get

hardware is tough, but they all keep improving.

Without a specific problem referencing a specific version, it's just
idle chatter and useless for anything other than exercising your jaw
between beers.

If you have a specific performance problem, I highly recommend you
file a PR with plenty of details.  This is what happened with both
MySQL and PostgreSQL and the result is that FreeBSD 7's ability to
run those applications has improved dramatically.

I doubt you're hallucinating, but without specifics, it's difficult
to say what you're hearing.  Lots of people think they can do
benchmarking, but few (in my experience) are capable of legitimately
doing a non-biased comparison that can really be trusted.

I don't know where to point you for reading materials other than the
code itself, and that's not something that's easily digested.  As I
said, writing high-quality schedulers is black magic, and the code
reads that way.
