Re: pkgng problem
Matt, Another data point on this: Machines converted to pkgng a couple weeks ago can install new packages just fine despite showing the same error. And it looks like they download the new repo information: # pkg install sysrc Updating repository catalogue digests.txz 100% 997KB 997.1KB/s 997.1KB/s 00:00 packagesite.txz 100% 5530KB 1.4MB/s 1.9MB/s 00:04 pkg: Invalid manifest format: mapping values are not allowed in this contex Incremental update completed, 0 packages processed: 8292 packages updated, 1115 removed and 129 added. pkg: No digest falling back on legacy catalog format packagesite repository catalogue is up-to-date, no need to fetch fresh copy The following 1 packages will be installed: Installing sysrc: 5.2 The installation will require 39 kB more space 15 kB to be downloaded Proceed with installing packages [y/N]: y sysrc-5.2.txz 100% 16KB 15.8KB/s 15.8KB/s 00:00 Checking integrity... done [1/1] Installing sysrc-5.2... done Machines upgraded to pkgng this week, using the same script as I used a couple weeks ago, cannot install packages. # pkg install sysrc Updating repository catalogue digests.txz 100% 997KB 997.1KB/s 997.1KB/s 00:00 packagesite.txz 100% 5530KB 2.7MB/s 1.5MB/s 00:02 pkg: Invalid manifest format: mapping values are not allowed in this context Incremental update completed, 0 packages processed: 0 packages updated, 0 removed and 22568 added. pkg: No digest falling back on legacy catalog format packagesite repository catalogue is up-to-date, no need to fetch fresh copy pkg: No packages matching 'sysrc' has been found in the repositories Not sure if this supports the "bad repo" theory, but it's interesting.

Hi, Thanks for answering! Turns out my problem was that sudo caches the last time the user authenticated.

PAM confusion
Hi, I'm attempting to hook security/pam_ssh_agent_auth into sudo, and have learned that PAM doesn't work the way I thought it did. I'm running FreeBSD-9/i386, with sudo 1.7.2.6. My goal is that sudo pass all auth requests back to the users' SSH agent. Sudo should never use passwords for authentication. If the user doesn't have an SSH agent, or if the SSH agent breaks somehow, the sudo request is denied. With my current config, sudo requests are accepted without a password even if the users' environment has no $SSH_AUTH_SOCK. I'm obviously doing something wrong. Here's my pam.d/sudo. I removed password settings and required the pam_ssh_agent_auth library. --- #auth include system authrequired/usr/local/lib/pam_ssh_agent_auth.so file=~/.ssh/authorized\ _keys # account account include system # session # XXX: pam_lastlog (used in system) causes users to appear as though # they are no longer logged in in system logs. session requiredpam_permit.so # password #password include system --- Any suggestions what I'm doing wrong?

Good idea.
fetch -o /dev/null ftp://xxx/ftp/FreeBSD-9.0-CURRENT-201011-amd64-dvd1.iso
/dev/null 100% of 1027 MB 29 MBps 00m00s
Basically the same. I don't think it's disk.
There's kern/152828 claiming a performance regression with em under
8.2, but I'm not sure if that is applicable to my system. I'd upgrade
the kernel to test, but I'm not brave enough to downgrade the kernel
to 8.0 for comparison. (I've never had good luck running an old kernel
on a new userland.)

em0 NIC slow on 8.2-p1 amd64?
Hi, I'm running FreeNAS 8.0/amd64, with an 8.2-p1 kernel. When using FTP or SCP, performance maxes out around 30MB/s. This is on a gigabit network, no errors showing. It looks a lot like kern/152828, but it seems that nobody's looking at that. As per suggestions from the archives, I've tried disabling TSO. No change. Anyone else experiencing this, or have any suggestions? At the moment, the boss is complaining that his Windows Home Server is doing better than this machine, and that's a technological direction I really don't want to go in. Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.

apache22 build problem: cgi disabled
Hi, I'm running a July 26 -current/amd64, both ports and userland, and it seems that the newest apache22 doesn't build a lot of modules, such as mod_cgi, mod_cache, etc. /var/db/ports/apache22/options includes (among other things): WITH_CGI=true make.conf defines only perl and sendmail.mc. The port's config.log shows: $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-layout=FreeBSD --with-perl=/usr/local/bin/perl5.8.9 --with-port=80 --with-expat=/usr/local --with-iconv=/usr/local --enable-http --with-pcre=/usr/local --with-apr=/usr/local/bin/apr-1-config --with-apr-util=/usr/local/bin/apu-1-config --disable-authn-file --disable-authn-default --disable-authz-host --disable-authz-groupfile --disable-authz-user --disable-authz-default --disable-auth-basic --disable-charset-lite --disable-include --disable-log-config --disable-env --disable-setenvif --disable-mime --disable-status --disable-autoindex --disable-asis --disable-cgid --disable-cgi --disable-negotiation --disable-dir --disable-imagemap --disable-actions --disable-userdir --disable-alias --disable-filter --disable-proxy --disable-proxy-connect --disable-proxy-ftp --disable-proxy-http --disable-proxy-ajp --disable-proxy-balancer --disable-proxy-scgi --disable-reqtimeout --enable-so --enable-mods-shared=auth_basic auth_digest authn_file authn_dbm authn_anon authn_default authn_alias authz_host authz_groupfile authz_user authz_dbm authz_owner authz_default disk_cache file_cache dav dav_fs actions alias asis autoindex cern_meta charset_lite deflate dir dumpio env expires headers imagemap include info log_config logio mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias version reqtimeout proxy_connect ssl --with-dbm=sdbm --with-ssl=/usr --disable-ipv6 --with-devrandom --with-mpm=prefork --prefix=/usr/local --mandir=/usr/local/man --infodir=/usr/local/info/ --build=amd64-portbld-freebsd9.0 There's a --disable-cgi in there, but no cgi listed after --enable-mods.

That looks like a fabulous tool, actually. I've wanted that functionality for years. But it's not quite what I want. We get orders for services via PDF. We need to keep them, and call them up months or years later. We'd need to find things like "all of the PDFs for Customer X" or "all of the PDFs for circuit ID such-and-such."

Interesting. (BTW, this is running on a GENERIC kernel, no firewall.) I did a packet capture on the OpenSolaris NFS server, and found that the kernel load and initial boot takes place over NFSv2. When the FreeBSD box tries to remount root, it sends a NFSv3 FSINFO request. The server returns NFS3ERR_STALE. It appears that that error is generated when the permissions to the mount are revoked... but we just mounted it seconds before? It turns out that there's a whole discussion thread on nfsv2 and v3 interoperability with diskless systems. See http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2008-January/022792.html for a sample message. Short answer: it seems that there are interoperability annoyances with diskless systems and assorted NFS servers. NFS mount options in /etc/fstab seem to be ignored, but you can set them in /boot/loader.conf. boot.nfsroot.options="nfsv2" made FreeBSD try a NFSv2 remout, and the system came up. Thanks for pointing out it seems to be a permissions error, I wouldn't have headed down this route without that. ==ml -- Michael W.

diskless problem: Lookup of /dev for devfs, error: 13
Hi, I'm attempting to run a diskless 8.0 i386 workstation on VMWare, using an OpenSolaris box as a file store. I get PXE, the kernel loads, but when we try to remount the filesystem I get: ... NFS ROOT: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:/storage1/vm/netflow Lookup of /dev for devfs, error 13 exec /sbin/init: error 13 exec /sbin/oinit: error 13 exec /sbin/init.bak: error 13 exec /rescue/inet: error 13 exec /stand/sysinstall: error 13 init: not found in path ... At first glance, it would appear that /dev is missing. I've never seen this happen before diskless systems, though, and I can't find any other references to this. I know that other people have PXE-booted FreeBSD on VMWare, however. Anyone have any suggestions on what to check? Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.

"disklabel: Class not found" when editing USB disk
Hi, I'm following Ceri's instructions for getting FreeBSD on a flash drive. My laptop is a Feb 1 -current, I'm installing FreeBSD 7.1, and the instructions are for 6.1, so we have all kinds of things that could be going wrong. The USB boots with the error: F1 FreeBSD F6 PXE Boot: F1 Not ufs Not ufs No /boot/loader When I investigated the flash's disklabel, I saw: 8 partitions: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 4000106 16unused0 0 c: 40001220unused0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit I newfs'd this flash drive and put data on it. The obvious thing to do is set the disklabel for partition a to 4.2BSD. Even if I have to reinstall the data, no big deal. So, run bsdlabel -e /dev/da0s1 and change the disklabel to: #size offsetfstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 4000106 164.2BSD0 0 c: 40001220unused0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit Then I get the error: bsdlabel: Class not found re-edit the label? [y]: The same error appears if I try to edit the disklabel off-disk and restore (-R). Google tells me that this error is not uncommon, but the only solutions I saw (loading geom_mbr and setting kern.geom.debugflags=16) did not help. Anyone have any suggestions? Or, can anyone tell me I'm running down the wrong path? Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.

if_lagg(4) and rc.conf
Hi, I'm trying to configure a lagg(4) interface out of rc.conf. FreeBSD doesn't want to initialize the interface at boot. I'm obviously missing some little thing. I'm successfully loading if_lagg into the kernel, so that's not the problem. I can configure the interface at the command line if I do a "ifconfig lagg0 create" and then enter the configuration, but there doesn't seem to be a rc.conf flag to tell the system to create an interface? Here's my rc.conf for these interfaces: ifconfig_em3="up" ifconfig_em7="up" ifconfig_lagg0="laggproto lacp laggport em3 laggport em7 10.184.1.19 netmask 0x" Any suggestions?

USB key device nodes
Hi, This strikes me as odd. I have a 1GB USB pocketknife that doesn't give me the right device nodes until after I try to mount it. The mount attempt seems to create the proper device nodes. The USB drive shows up on insertion like so: Apr 14 19:09:41 stretchlimo kernel: umass0: on uhub4 Apr 14 19:09:41 stretchlimo root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x1370 product 0x2168 bus uhub4 Apr 14 19:09:41 stretchlimo kernel: da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 Apr 14 19:09:41 stretchlimo kernel: da1: Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device Apr 14 19:09:41 stretchlimo kernel: da1: 40.000MB/s transfers Apr 14 19:09:41 stretchlimo kernel: da1: Attempt to query device size failed: UNIT ATTENTION, Not ready to ready change, Disklabel tells me that it has a single DOS partition on it: # fdisk /dev/da1 *** Working on device /dev/da1 *** parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=998 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=998 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 6 (0x06),(Primary 'big' DOS (>= 32MB)) start 32, size 2043871 (997 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 996/ head 63/ sector 32 The data for partition 2 is: The data for partition 3 is: The data for partition 4 is: But the only device node I get upon insertion is: # ls /dev/da* /dev/da1 # I try to mount it, and immediately check the device nodes: # mount_msdosfs /dev/da1 /media mount_msdosfs: /dev/da1: : Invalid argument # ls /dev/da* /dev/da1/dev/da1s1 # Of course, at this point I can mount_msdosfs /dev/da1s1. Is this behavior normal? I'm trying to configure devd to automount a USB device, but the lack of a proper device node appearing the first time around kiboshes that. This is a 7.x i386 system.

xorg resolution on new laptop
Hi folks,
I've scoured Google seeking wisdom, and found nothing except hordes of
Linux users whining about this same problem. FreeBSD users don't seem
to have this issue, except for me. Finally I have no choice but to
throw myself on your tender mercies.
I've been going nuts trying to get 1440x900 resolution on my new
Toshiba P105. Any help anyone could offer would be greatly
appreciated. Xorg assures me that the 945GM video card is supported
by the i810 driver, provided I use the 915resolution program to set
the resolution before starting X. I run:
/usr/local/bin/915resolution 3c 1440 900
to add the resolution 1440x900 to the video BIOS. 915resolution -l
now shows me:
...
Mode 3c : 1440x900, 8 bits/pixel
...
Mode 4d : 1440x900, 16 bits/pixel
...
Mode 5c : 1440x900, 32 bits/pixel
..
So, in theory 1440x900 should be available to the card.
startx fails without a config file, so I let it create one and tweaked
in based on gossip, rumour, and innuendo I've uncovered in three days
of Web searching. I get something that looks *about* like 1200x768,
but it's a far cry from 1440x900.
pciconf -lv tells me:
...

pfspamd greylisting stuttering at everything
Hi,
I hear greylisting is wonderful, and yet it's being unkind to me. Any
help would be appreciated.
According to spamd(8), addresses that are not in the spamd table
should not be stuttered at when spamd(8) is running in greylisting
mode; rather they should just get a 451 and watch for more incoming
connections.
I'm set up just like the man page, but every incoming connection is
being stuttered at. This plays havoc with incoming legit mail, of
course, and I've been forced to fall back on older antispam tools.
spamd is running as:
spamd -v -G7:4:864 -r451
My pf.conf is just:
---
int="vr0"
my_address="198.22.63.8"
table persist
table persist
table persist file "/usr/local/etc/spamd/whitelist"
no rdr on {lo0} from any to any
rdr pass inet proto tcp from to $my_address port smtp ->
$my_address port smtp
rdr pass inet proto tcp from to any port smtp -> 127.0.0.1 port 8025
rdr pass inet proto tcp from ! to any port smtp -> 127.0.0.1 port
8025
pass in on $int proto tcp from any to $int port 22 flags S/SA keep state
---
(OK, the last rule should not be necessary, but I'm being careful.)
My spamd.conf is very textbook:
--

I'm missing something obvious, I'm sure... something so obvious that
everyone else has caught it. Any suggestions?

mimedefang, perl, and amd64 trouble
Hi, (copying wes@, the mimedefang maintainer, just because it might possibly be his headache.) I have a brand-new, freshly-cvsupped 7.0 amd64 box as a mail server. Perl seems to be having troubles; when I fire up mimedefang, it can't load some dependencies.

Proper startup of ng_fec?
Hi, I'm looking at using ng_fec to implement "adapter teaming" -- it appears that Cisco switches swallow it more easily than ng_one2many. Is there a proper way to configure a Netgraph interface at boot? A search for ngctl in /etc/rc.d/* only leads to the Bluetooth startup. It appears that I need to write a custom rc.d script to have a ng_one2many interface appear and start early in the boot sequence. Anyone have a better way? Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.

We have no firewall on this machine; it's buried behind three layers of firewall. I've tried running syslogd in debug mode, but not found anything particularly useful yet. Syslogd is now set to restart every 15 minutes, and run in debug mode, so hopefully the next time this happens I'll have the debugging output. The problem happens even within fifteen minutes, but because of my timeouts nobody notices. I'm attaching the output of netstat -na and netstat -s for general informative purposes; if anyone has any further suggestions, I'm all ears. Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.

filling up UDP socket buffers like mad
Hi, Running FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE as a DNS, dhcp, and syslog server. I'm having trouble with DNS, DHCP, and syslogd locking up, and I think I've found what they all share in common. During the lockups, the box starts dropping UDP due to full socket buffers. I have a dumb little script to capture the rate of drops over 5 seconds, and it's about 45 a second. 168725 dropped due to full socket buffers 168958 dropped due to full socket buffers Right now, named and syslogd are in cron to restart every 15 minutes. Once they restart, everything works fine. Immediately after the reload, the UDP drops cease. The script reveals no change in the number of drops... for a few minutes. I've turned kern.ipc.maxsockbuf to increase the number of UDP buffers, which Google tells me is correct. Mind you, I'd previously tuned it to 8388608. I've now doubled that again, to 16777216. I really don't want to just keep doubling this resource when something happens. The best thing to do here is to identify what's using all these sockets, but I'm stumped on how to do that. My bowels tell me it's syslogd, because that's the program that is most resistant to restarting, but that's a pretty crappy reason. Any thoughts? Thanks, ==ml -- Michael W.

That is the requirement: they send me the final PDFs with the page layouts all done, and their comments in the margins. I go through and make my comments direct in the document, and then they have someone go through and rearrange according to my comments on their comments, strip out everyone's comments, and send it to the printer. Scary? Yes. Terrifying, actually. But more and more web presses speak PDF. It could be worse; they *could* speak only MS .doc...

I'd rate pdftops and flpsed as 95% of the way there for this audience. Some small things don't work, particularly "layered" elements. Some parts of the manuscript I was given were highlighted, for example. In the original the highlighting is transparent, while the pdftops/flpsed combination the highlighting obliterates the underlying text. There are other, very minor variations. That last 5% might not be critical for most people; I would certainly use it for preparing personal documents, or even documents within my company. But OpenOffice's PDF export is far easier for preparing PDFs in general. for this application, pdftops/flpsed is not acceptable. When you dump a PDF directly to a web press and produce a book from it, tiny variations in page placement or layout will result in a really useless print run. But from the various tools people have suggested and that I've tried last night and this morning, it's as good as we have.

Hi, This tickles something in the back of my memory. You aren't by chance talking about remote uptime detection, Netcraft-style, are you? IIRC, that rolls over to 0 at 497 days. But actual system uptime is unaffected. ==ml On Mon, Jun 28, 2004 at 12:39:30PM +0900, Rob wrote: > > Hi, > > By accident I happen to come across this remarkable limit of > uptime registration for FreeBSD systems.

play a music CD backwards?
No, I'm not looking for satanic messages. :-) I have a music CD that was pressed from a master tape run backwards (Throbbing Gristle's "2nd Annual Report", if anyone cares). It would be nice to hear it forwards. Can someone suggest a way to hear a CD backwards? Sadly, none of the standard CD players have this option. I'd happily rip this to MP3 if I could find a MP3 player with a "play backwards" option. ==ml -- Michael Lucas [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Today's chance of throwing it all away to start a goat farm: 44.3% http://www.BlackHelicopters.org/~mwlucas/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
