dd, but as I am not sure how to do it correctly, I thought I'd rather
ask first.

Hi
I am looking for a supported graphics card that offers dual-head
1600x1200 with dvi, passively cooled if possible. 3D support
must be present, but it doesn't need to be the latest and fastest.
I came across the Matrox P650, but unlike models of G550 and
below, these seem not directly supported

I use the following commands to create a plain file, make a filesystem on it and mount
it:

Hi
When I create a file with a filesystem on it, then mount it with vnconfig, then
chflags schg the file, I can still write to the mounted dir. Is this meant to be like
that?
thanks

Hi
I run a daily portsnap from cron, using the following line:
/usr/sbin/portsnap cron update > /dev/null 2>&1 ;
/usr/local/sbin/portversion -vL=
Until recently, I only received a mail when there were ports to upgrade.
However, now I get this every day, even when there are no new ports:

I tried connecting my Ipod Nano 8GB via USB to my -STABLE box. No umass

Hi
I want to set up an ipsec transport connection between two freebsd
hosts, 192.168.0.1 (host A) and 192.168.0.66 (host B). It seems like
the connection is set up correctly in only one direction:
B# ping -c 1 192.168.0.1
A# setkey -lD
No SAD entries. [a couple of those]

Hi
Is it save to install WinXP after FreeBSD? My IBM recovery cd goofed
up my WinXP and I'd like to reinstall XP only and keep my existing
FreeBSD slices intact. Same goes for the MBR, of course.
And yes, I will back up my data in any case, but I'd still hate it if
I had to set up my whole system

I somehow destroyed some of my boot files, as it seems. The bootmanager
seems to work: The F1-FN selection appears and works for a different

appears is a / and the machine hangs. I fscked and successfully mounted

This used to work quite some time ago, when there still was pccardd. How
does it work these days (with 7.x)? I didn't find any documentation on this.
I get as far as

i have the following task to do:
i need to get the mac adress of my first upstream router (i.e my default

1) detection has to be as fast as possible, but 100% reliable
2) i can only use tools from /bin and /sbin, nothing from under /usr.

Hi
I'd like to add a certificate to OpenSSL. The OpenSSL HOWTO mentions
OPENSSLDIR, which is /etc/ssl on FreeBSD (for OpenSSL from base). To
have OpenSSL recognize a new certificate, it has to be put into
OPENSSLDIR/certs/, but this does not exist on FreeBSD. The
only certs/ dir I could find is /u

hi
i am looking for a color inkjet printer/scanner/copier combo.
it should be cheap, supported under 5.2.1, rather small, have separate,
cheaply available ink cartridges. it doesn't need to be fast or have any
fancy features. price comes first, then quality.
can someone recommend a model that wo
():ad0s2d.eli[READ(offset=1806532608, length=16384)]error = 5
Should I be worried? I my disk dying? I know which file causes the error
when read, and it's not an important one. Can I just delete it and go
on, or will this haunt me in the near future?
Thanks,
Tobias
