Re: Repost: Drive jumpers - was: Boot Timeout?
At 1:52 PM on Tuesday 16 September 2003, Charles Howse wrote: I currently have a HDD as the primary master, a CDROM as the secondary master and a HDD as the secondary slave on my FBSD box. FBSD detects them as ad0, acd0 and ad3, respectively. If I change the drive jumpers to make the HDD the secondary master and the CDROM the secondary slave, is it correct to assume that FBSD will detect them as ad1 and acd0? ad2, rather. Assuming that you use the ATA_STATIC_ID kernel option, ATA drives will be numbered like this: ad0 primary master ad1 primary slave ad2 secondary master ad3 secondary slave ... This configuration will break /etc/fstab, as well as anything else that references the HDD on the secondary IDE channel. Other than /etc/fstab and personal files, what should I edit to reflect the hardware changes? When I've made those sorts of changes, I've only ever had to change fstab and my scripts that run dump(8). -- David Siebörger [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: SSH login banner: IP address instead of DNS name

You can do so by adding this line to /etc/rc.conf: sshd_flags=-u 15 You can alter sshd's banner at the directive named Banner in the file c/sshd/sshd_config.

Re: Burning audio cd with burncd command
At 12:03 AM on Friday 27 June 2003, David wrote: Hello, I'm using freebsd 5.0 Jan 2003 series I read the freebsd handbook on mp3 and making audio cd's. First I use the mpg123 command to convert the mp3's to wavs in 16 bit 44.1k stereo, then I use the sox utility to remove the headers that produces the pop click sound at the begining of each track. Then I burn the cd using burncd. I still get the pop click sound when I play the audio cd. Is there a switch missing in the command syntax I'm using? mpg123 -w - anysong.mp3 newsong.wav sox -t wav -r 44100 -s -w -c 2 newsong.wav new-song.wav The example in the handbook reads: % sox -t wav -r 44100 -s -w -c 2 track.wav track.raw Note that the output file has a .raw extension. burncd -f /dev/acd1c -s 8 audio *.wav fixate You should be writing the headerless .raw files to the disc, rather than the .wav files.

I doubt that's what you intended. The operating system will create one route to the 128.128.0.0/16 network and will send packets through that route. I would suggest you change the netmasks to 255.255.255.0. Or read up on IP subnetting and rethink your network topology. -- David Siebörger [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
