And, BtW, while enumerating network interfaces, it skips those
interfaces which're DOWN or LOOPBACK. If you've more questions, the
quickest way is to checkout source code :) .

By me specificying use of serial console via /boot.config, you mean '-D'
option, which I specified in /boot.config, hmm...?

If yes, then this means it'll override 'console' setting I specified
in "loader.conf", hmm...? e.g. if I specified 'console=vidconsole' in
'loader.conf', but has '-D' in /boot.config, will I get output on both
serial and internal console, hmm...?

And BtW, if I specify anything at loader prompt, e.g. "set
comconsole_speed=115200", it works, i.e. I can connect to serial
console at 115200 bps. So won't values specified at loader prompt have
same priority as values specified in "loader.conf", hmm... ? Sorry I'm
bit confused regarding which gets priority, 'loader.conf' or
'boot.config'.

I asked GDM service to start at startup. So I get a GDM GUI, but I

I've all my hostname, and DNS stuff set up correctly, so there isn't
problem of any kind, as I see messages of sendmail, sshd starting on
my serial console at 9600bps. BtW, only 'dmesg' message appears on my
video console, whereas all kind of messages appear on serial console,
do I need some changes in syslog too to get all messages also on my
video console, hmm...?

Quoting from sudo.c of sudo-1.6.8p12 in "init_vars(int)" routine:

8<8<
/*
 * We avoid gethostbyname() if possible since we don't want
 * sudo to block if DNS or NIS is hosed.
 * "host" is the (possibly fully-qualified) hostname and
 * "shost" is the unqualified form of the hostname.
 */
sudo_user.host_fqdn_queried = FALSE;
nohostname = gethostname(thost, sizeof(thost));
if (nohostname)
user_host = user_shost = "localhost";
else {
user_host = estrdup(thost);
if ((p = strchr(user_host, '.'))) {
*p = '\0';
user_shost = estrdup(user_host);
*p = '.';
} else {
user_shost = user_host;
}
}
>8>8

As you can see, it uses gethostname() to return the hostname. So, your
host won't be 'localhost' unless its not able to retrieve hostname or
your hostname is set to 'localhost'.

Why they did this probably because any entry for 'localhost' is valid
for execution on all machines, ;) .

als
 like information about sector structures, e.g. plaiin sectore and directory

Also, someplace (on the disk there is a pointer to the head (or base, depending

How did you add Xorg? It looks like you are completely missing drivers. 
Did you reboot the computers after the XOrg was added.

It is complaining that the drivers are missing.
Try fresh installation and try to do installation without X and then add 
Xorg as

pkg_add -r . Reboot and then try
Xorg -configure to create the initial xorg.conf.new file

Then probe with

X -config /root/xorg.conf.new (use complete path even if you are in root 
directory)


Then if the server gets fired

cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf

As far as I see you are just missing drivers there are no other problems 
like the one with resolution or default depth


Good Luck
OKO




Both machines run FreeBSD 6.2 and X works fine.
I search wiki.x.org and freebsd list, but did not see any information

Can someone tell me what is going wrong on my installation or X

I think 7.0 is very near, but not because of the status of 6.3. When a
release is in the RC stage, it is very near full release unless
something very significant is found by user testing. There are enough
potential problems being posted that I wouldn't be surprised to see
another release candidate, but perhaps all of those will turn out to
be minor issues and the next thing that will happen is the full
release.

I have run 7.0 BETAs on several systems and encountered no problems
(except that amd64 won't boot on our stupid HP systems with brain dead
BIOSes, but i386 works fine on them, KDE and all). I have already put
7.0 on a couple of production DNS servers (well, they are intended for
production, but are still in testing). The issues being reported don't
seem to be a problem for that use, and I'd rather set up a new server
with a new major release than one that is near end of life.

Confusion between the IPv6ish ::1 rather than the IPv4ish 127.0.0.1
perhaps? You can just put the hostname of your machine in the sudoers
file and sudo will query the IP addresses of its interfaces at runtime
- -- or simply don't use the host based limiting stuff at all: that syntax is
predicated on having the same sudoers file distributed over a number
of machines, which is great for a large site with dozens of servers,
but for a home user it's possibly easier to maintain an individual
sudoers file on each machine you have.

Cheers,

Matthew

I see that gmirror(8) is available on the 6.3 fixit file system, but
still not a part of the mfsroot.  Is this a crunchgen problem?

The install kernel has had boot/kernel/geom_mirror.ko since the 5x days.
so it seems only appropriate to include the binary.

I guess its a moot point since the fdisk / bsdlabel menus in sysinstall
don't recognized probed geom volumes in /dev/mirror as candidate disks
during installs or updates.

Is there progress with this in RELENG_7 or trunk?  Shall I file PR?

Now that 6.3 is official, I have to assume that 7.0 is very near?

I thought this system had been updated recently, but:

# uname -a

so for my next trick, I will at least get it up to the lastest binary patch 
level, and try again.

where they list the LAN chipset as Realtek 8111B

FreeBSD 7.0-RC1 syncache problems under high load

[s3raphi]

I am running web polygraph against a FreeBSD7.0-RC1 squid server and
experiencing problems. I have run the same test against the same hardware on
FreeBSD 6.1 without issue. This seems to be specific to FreeBSD 7. 
The problem is related to the number of client connections:
250 Clients - runs great.
500 Clients- scores well in polygraph, but does have a few errored requests
750-2000 Clients - Error rate spikes way up and performance takes a
nosedive. 

I turned on TCP debugging on the server and found lots of this: 

Jan 19 18:12:46 FlashCache kernel: TCP: [192.168.200.2]:60525 to

This looks similar to something that has already been fixed in July. I am
assuming that the July fix is included in RC1?

I am using a generic kernel, and have this problem on both ethernet cards I
have tested with(nfe and bge)

These two machines were connected by a switch, but are now directly
connected and have the same problem regardless.

trying to locate a specific port that I forget the name of

[Zane C.B.]

I originally saw it in the ports tree, IIRC, about a year ago or
around there.

What it was was a massive piece of software for connecting multiple
services allowing them all to be queried. It was capable of
connecting to IMAP, LDAP, several SQL servers, and a few other
things. The manual of the software was several hundred pages long.

Any one remember what it is?

My suggestion is to check out 'graphics/gnash'. That port works
surprisingly well for part these days.

Anything in /etc/defaults/ should not have been edited, so just accept
the new version. If you *have* edited it, you'll have to handle this
manually, and put you changes in the right place.

This is also in /etc/defaults/, it's not the normal periodic.conf, so
see above.

If we are talking about /etc/rc.conf (rather
than /etc/defaults/rc.conf) then keep the old version as this file is
empty by default.

compiling kernel with PAE

Recovering data from a newfs filesystem

[Kelly Jones]

Months ago, I got a new USB drive for my Mac OS X, did "newfs
/dev/disk1" on it, and it's been working fine.

I then foolishly did "disklabel -create /dev/disk1", which broke
it. How can I recover my data? I've tried fsck w/ alternate
superblocks to no avail.

"less -f /dev/disk1" shows me the disk label I created:


http://www.apple\
.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">


Base
131072
Size
500107730944



but also shows me my file names/content, so I'm convinced the data is
still there.

How do I recover my data? I assume newfs creates a UFS by default? Can
I "decode" /dev/disk1 the way one might decode a TAR file?

Posting here because I know Mac OS X is "FreeBSD inside".

It is also worth remembering that there are a number of packages 
(including some popular ones) that we cannot distribute for legal 
reasons, due to the restrictive licenses imposed by the authors.  These 
will never be available for download via portupgrade -P.

This is expected, since the packages are built from the ports tree. Thus 
binary packages are always late. -P is most useful when distributing your own 
centrally built packages.

Let me asume you use a _recent_ mkisofs and set up a correct timezone...

Then you found a FreeBSD kernel bug in your filesystem code.

BTW: The first bug I found in mkisofs (this was in 1995) was a TZ bug and
mkisofs did use the wrong sign for the timezone offset. Since this has been
fixed, the only reported problems where in effect +- 24 hours from New-year.



What do you get from "mkisofs -version"?
What timezone do you have (how many hours from GMT and which location)?
What do you have in the TZ= variable?
What do you see with "TZ=GMT ls -l ToJoe"?

X Forwarding problems since upgrading to 6-Stable

[Tom Russo]

I have three BSD machines running 6-Stable, all of them only recently upgraded
from 5-STABLE.

Ever since the upgrades, I cannot get remote hosts to which I've ssh'd to 
connect to the tunneled X server.  For example:

  hostb> ssh -X hostA
  hosta> echo $DISPLAY
  localhost:10.0
  hosta> xev 
  Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
  Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
  xev:  unable to open display 'localhost:10.0'
  hosta> exit
  hostb> ssh -Y hostA
  hosta> echo $DISPLAY
  localhost:10.0
  hosta> xev 
  Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
  Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
  xev:  unable to open display 'localhost:10.0'

If hosta is not a FreeBSD machine, the *OPPOSITE* attempt works fine.  For
example, if hosta is my linux laptop:

  hosta> ssh -X hostb
  hostb> echo $$DISPLAY
  localhost:10.0
  hostb> xev
  [... xev starts up just fine and displays on the laptop...]

But if the machine from which I'm sshing is one of my 6-stable BSD machines,
it never works.  All the 6-stable machines are running the latest ports, as
I keep my ports tree csup'd and portupgrade regularly.  
 
I've googled the issue and the only thing I ever find is people answering
"you should use -Y instead of -X to enable 'trusted' forwarding."  This
clearly doesn't work for me, either.

Since I am not seeing tons of recent references to this all over the net,
I am pretty much concluding that I must have some kind of configuration 
mistake on my BSD machines' X or ssh setups, but I don't immediately see
one.  I thought I left my sshd config pretty much as it was out of the box, 
but perhaps I screwed something up.  Can anyone suggest a place to start looking
for the error?

6.2-Release to 6.3-Release and automatically merge changes

[Zbigniew Szalbot]

Hello,

Encouraged by an apparent ease of use of FreeBSD update utility to go
to 6.3 I decided to perform the update on an office machine, too. I
issued:

$ sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -r 6.3-RELEASE upgrade

and after some time there came a screen like this:

Attempting to automatically merge changes in files... done.

The following file could not be merged automatically:
/etc/defaults/periodic.conf
Press Enter to edit this file in vi and resolve the conflicts
manually...

<<< current version
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/defaults/periodic.conf,v 1.33.2.1 2006/03/08
23:01:18 brueffer Exp $
===
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/defaults/periodic.conf,v 1.33.2.3.2.1 2007/12/06
08:11:19 jhb Exp $
>>> 6.3-RELEASE

Now, I can't be 100% certain but I think I have never touched
periodic.conf and not really sure how to progress on from here.

Another example is rc.conf which of course I edited in the past adding
various services as needed.

<<< current version
===
#background_dhclient_fxp0="YES" # Start dhcp client on fxp0 in the background.
synchronous_dhclient="YES"  # Start dhclient directly on configured
# interfaces during startup.
>>> 6.3-RELEASE

Then it asked about sendmail files which I have never ever touched (I
do not use sendmail). Some others are not sendmail-related but I have
not touched them either.

/etc/mail/freebsd.cf
/etc/mail/freebsd.mc
/etc/mail/freebsd.submit.cf
/etc/mail/freebsd.submit.mc
/etc/mail/helpfile
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
/etc/mail/submit.cf
/etc/network.subr
/etc/pccard_ether
/etc/rc.d/ldconfig
/etc/rc.d/mountcritlocal
/etc/rc.d/moused
/etc/rc.d/netif
/etc/rc.d/nsswitch
/etc/rc.d/ppp
/etc/rc.d/ypxfrd
/etc/rc.initdiskless
/etc/rc.subr
/etc/snmpd.config

What would you advise me to do? I seem to remember I had a similar
trouble going from 6.1 to 6.2. In that case I must have made some
mistakes while merging changes because the machine wouldn't start. I
seem to recall that I had to copy /etc from backup to make the machine
work. I fear it may happen again and I am not really sure which part
of the files I should be editing as - frankly - I have no idea what
the changes are.

Any advice? Many thanks in advance!

http://www.spamhaus.org/query/bl?ip=123.20.89.67


Just one comment, in my installation of SpamAssassin, it reports in
syslog as spamd, not at rblsmtpd. This looks like logs from the
rblsmtpd program that is not SpamAssasin.

As some one mentionned, one way to prevent false positive and too
agressive black lists is to use them through SpamAssassin only, where
the black list score is only part of the spaminess. The draw back is
that it puts more load the server and SpamAssassin that has to
scrutinize every email, while dropping at the SMTP level is fast and
uses very low resources.



Ah... I see. Yes, you are correct. It is rblsmtpd that is doing the 
filtering.


One of my goals with this mail server set up (primarily pf, qmail, 
spamassassin, maildrop, courier) was to minimize processing, since my 
last set up got totally bogged down handling my, and my client's 
email, frequently running with a load of 8 or more with several spam 
per second. A real drag.


This set up runs at a much lower load, and seems to do a better job 
filtering spam.
Since you're already using PF, why not use OpenBSD spamd (not 
spamassassin) as well? You don't need rblsmtpd then, and OpenBSD spamd 
operates together with PF. Maybe rblsmtpd does as well, I don't know - I 
never tried it. Also in combination with relaydb to create your own 
blacklists it can be pretty interesting. Check out 
http://www.openbsd.org/spamd/ for additional info.


Anyway, to go a little more on the background about blacklists; we were 
troubled by a lot of "false positive" entries in the blacklists (we use 
uatraps and nixspam, and spamassassin checks on blacklists like spamhaus 
since they only allow DNS queries if you don't want to pay). We had big 
ISPs blacklisted, and seeing at the amount of mailservers they have you 
don't want to check all of that by hand. And I'm sure somebody else 
noticed Gmail's awkward way of handling outgoing e-mail. They apparently 
have one global mail queue or something and try another mail server (of 
the hundereds they have) when the delivery fails once - a horrible 
situation for greylisting.


So what we did is create a Perl script that checks every blacklisted 
entry for a PTR record and tried to give an SMTP HELO command. We filter 
the PTR record on several keywords (like dsl, dynamic, cable, ip 
address, stuff like that). If a valid PTR record or a valid SMTP HELO 
reply has been recieved we remove that entry automatically from the 
blacklist. So you still blacklist the zillions of DSL connection and 
filter out the big ISPs or other customers. Naturally you will filter 
some spammers out using this method, but we still have SpamAssassin as a 
second layer doing a fine job.(And FYI: it picks a random IP address and 
has a 1 second delay on everything it checks - we don't want to cause a 
fuss at ISPs with a lot of blacklisted entries). There's more stuff in 
this script but the point of this e-mail is not a lecture of that :P


Anyway, ever since we put this script into place we got zero complains 
about blacklists, while still effectively trapping spammers into OpenBSD 
spamd and keeping them busy.


Quite a story - I hope someone might find this info useful one way or 
another. As always, YMMV.

localhost in sudoers

[Chris Whitehouse]

Hi,

If I put my computers ip address in sudoers a command runs successfully. 
 If I put localhost I am prompted for a password.


Check I can't run it normally:
%/root/testsudo
/root/testsudo: Permission denied.

Entry in sudoers:
chrisw  192.168.1.71=NOPASSWD:/root/testsudo

%sudo /root/testsudo
hello

Entry in sudoers:
chrisw  localhost=NOPASSWD:/root/testsudo

%sudo /root/testsudo
Password:
chrisw is not allowed to run sudo on eco.  This incident will be reported.
%ping localhost
PING localhost (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.034 ms
64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.021 ms
^C

/var/log/messages says 'user NOT authorized on host'

The problem is this machine gets its ip address by dhcp so I shouldn't 
enter an ip in sudoers. Is there a neat way round this?


Thanks

Chris

Wrong times written by mkisofs?

[Bob Johnson]

I recently built a CD of images to give to a friend. I noticed the timestamps 
displayed when I list the CD contents are five hours earlier than they should 
be. Five hours matches my GMT offset. This is a dual-boot system with Win XP, 
so the hardware clock is set to local time.

E.g. a file on my hard drive has a correct timestamp
-rw---  1 bobo  bobo  2246671 Jan 19 12:22 IMG_0660_080115_2348.JPG

while the same file on the resulting CD looks like
-rw---  1 bobo  bobo  2246671 Jan 19 07:22 IMG_0660_080115_2348.JPG

The "date" command returns the correct local time.

Did I do something incorrectly, or is this a bug in mkisofs? It appears to me 
that mkisofs decided to correct for GMT offset when it shouldn't have.

The sequence of operations I followed is below.

its still top, it just doesnt display the same way it does in linux.  look for 
a column C:

the C column tells you what processor the thread is using.

I reverted, then added the ALTQ lines.

Compile time was about an hour on a 1.6Ghz Pentium IV, so that wasn't
so bad. Rebooted OK.

upgraded from 62-p10 to 6.3-RELEASE

[Jonathan Horne]

... and something i never expected to happen... happened.

my backup app (veritas netbackup) relies on compat4x and compat5x to operate.  
ive never had any previous issues getting netbackup to run, but after the 6.3 
upgrade, suddenly the compat 4x and 5x ports were uninstalled?  i reinstalled 
them again, but this didnt help.  i have no idea where to go with this issue 
now, except to start a new system from scratch and see where that leads me.

stranger still... i have several 7.0 systems, and they all work without a 
hitch.  btw, the netbackup agent specifies that is compatible with FreeBSD 
4.5, but with the compat4x and 5x packages, the agent has never had any 
trouble operating.

did something change in 6.3 that would affect how applications operate with 
the compat libraries?

at a loss,

Re: going from 6.2 to 6.3 and custom kernel

[Wojciech Puchar]

WARNING: This system is running a "szalbot" kernel, which is not a
kernel configuration distributed as part of FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE.
This kernel will not be updated: you MUST update the kernel manually

How do I update the kernel manually then?

According to the commit message on the eclipse port, this would apply
to FreeBSD 7.x and higher.

It will not update your kernel, but if you do freebsd-update install you
will get an updated GENERIC kernel in /boot/GENERIC.

This is what I did:

freebsd-update -r 6.3-RELEASE upgrade

(got the warning you mentioned)

freebsd-update install

Got a message about installing kernel updates. Got a new generic kernel
in /boot/GENERIC (check to see this exists!)

Depending on whether you have console access to the machine or not:

1. If you don't have console access (you are doing this remotely), mv
/boot/kernel /boot/mykernel.old and mv /boot/GENERIC /boot/kernel and
reboot. This is because you can't (normally) interrupt the loader
remotely - unless someone does it for you. Continue from step 3.

2. If you are in front of the machine, reboot. Stop the boot sequence
when the boot loader comes up, and escape to loader prompt. Type:

unload
load /boot/GENERIC/kernel
boot

3. You are now running a 6.3-RELEASE kernel, albeit a GENERIC one. Run
freebsd-update install again to install the rest of the system.

4. Recompile your custom kernel the usual way, i.e.



I do have to fetch the latest sources before building a custom kernel, don't I?

  

make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
reboot

5. You are done!



Thanks!

Zbigniew Szalbot

  
Assuming you had the sources for 6.2 installed (how else could  you had 
compiled a custom kernel anyway?), freebsd-update will also update your 
sources (look at freebsd-update.conf and you will realize it 
immediately). Just go ahead and compile your new custom kernel!
