What's the bridged option in ipfw's man page ?

Problem with adding more swap !
Hi, all The documents on freebsd's website suggest that, as a system grows, it's recommended for adding more swap paritition to system. My questions are: Does it mean adding another swap to disk or to slice ? The disk structure: ad0s1 -- ad0s1a / (boot from here) -- ad0s1b swap -- ad0s1e /var -- ad0s1f /tmp -- ad0s1g /usr ad0s2 -- ad0s2e /usr1 (data) Do I need to add another swap partition as ad0s2b ?

Re: Problem with adding more swap !
Hi, I've heard if there are many disks on one machine it's good (in respect of performance) for adding swap parition on multiple drive, what does this mean (if that's true) ?

Hmmm. I am not quite sure why you would have made two separate slices on the one disk for FreeBSD instead of having another partition on slice-1, but... Anyway, what do you mean 'as a system grows'? Unless you have some very memory hungry applications or large numbers of processes that hang around but don't really need a lot of processor time, generally you figure swap size needs by memory size. You want at least more than your physical memory and 2X to 2-1/2X physical memory is the typical rule of thumb. If you already meet that, don't worry about, unless you have some other indication that you are running out of combined memory/swap (page) space. NOTE that the virtual memory system uses swap space for its paging. Typically, not much actual swapping really happens, though it can if there are a lot of processes not doing anything. You can make a file pretty much anywhere there is room and set things up to swap to it, but that should be considered only a temporary solution. The better thing is to make either a larger s1b or make an s2b partition for swap (or add a disk - ad1s1b, + whatever) as you say. In either case (enlarging s1b or making an s2b), unless you have space left in one of those slices that you did not already use up in the existing partitions, it means redoing the filesystems already on the slice. That means backing up everything on the slice, repartitioning, newfsing and restoring everything. So, given this, it would probably be a good time to rethink your whole disk layout and go from there. Maybe it would also be a good time to go to an additional or larger disk as well. jerry TIA, pjn Want to chat instantly with your online friends? Get the FREE Yahoo!

Re: why can't I get FreeBSD-RELEASE-p14 with this cvsup file ?
You're specifying a date string right down to the precise second that the patches were applied to the tree, which I think is confusing cvsup, and getting you the state of things just before the update. All you need to do is specify a date *after* the patches went into the tree, but before the next set of patches. Try: date=3D2004.02.05.12.00.00 The next commits to RELENG_4_8 were as a result of FreeBSD-SA-04:04.tcp.asc, which went into the tree at 2004-03- 02 17:27:47 UTC so you're no danger of overshooting and getting 4.8-RELEASE-p16.

Kris attach3 Hi list, Thanks for your reply. This box is currently in production environment so I can't reboot it now. But if nothing terrible I will leave it for the next booting. Hope it's no harmful with my box :-) Best regards, pjn ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Ask for your recommended system network monitoring system.
Hi all I'm currently run FreeBSD 4.11 on my box for a year and very impress its performance. Now I'd like to monitor disk space, system and network status of some servers at work via web-based. Any monitor tool you are using or recommended ?

why must boot in single mode.
Hi all I'm using FreeBSD 4.[89] for a few years. So far I upgraded my release to security branch by following the instructions in /usr/src/Makefile and after finished, my box is running fine. Only one thing that I ignored - rebooting in single mode but because I am not at the box's console. Could anyone clarify me why we have to (according to comment in /usr/src/Makefile) reboot in single mode ? Is it necessary ?

Able to mount samba but it's empty
Hi all, I'm using 4.8-RELEASE-p15 and Samba-2.2.8a for mounting shared directory on Windows2000 (NTFS). So far the disk on Windows2000 is only 120 GB and mounting is successful. But after I changed a disk to 200GB, I can sucessfully mount both 120GB and 200GB (I mean no any error message are displayed) but I can't see any file in the mount point of 200GB disk. I googled for a while but no any answer useful. Is there any problem with 200 GB disk on Samba-2.2.8 OR it's time to upgraded the Samba's version OR I missed something ?
