Load at 1.00 on SMP machine

2005-11-21 Thread Axel . Gruner

Hi,

i got a Problem on my dual XEON 3.06 GhZ machine, 2GB of RAM, FreeBSD
5.4-STABLE.
I got option SMP in the kernel config and machdep.hlt_logical_cpus=1 in
/boot/loader.conf.
There are just 20 processes running (typical ones like getty and stuff) and
the load of this machine is at 1.xx. There is no bgfsck and other stuff.

So, i built a new kernel without option SMP, rebooted, and the load was
at 0.0x. But only one CPU was used (detected).

So, what could bei the Problem?
Well, the machine shows me 4 CPUs, HTT is not enabled via /boot/loader.conf
and machdep.hyperthreading_allowed. So, how to disable HTT? Maybe this is
the problem of the high load?

Thanks in advance.

Need your help: Bad file descriptor and too many files open

2005-10-20 Thread Axel . Gruner

Hi,

I get the following messages sometimes if i try to restart sshd:

#etc/rc.d/sshd restart
eval: Pipe call failed: Bad file descriptor
eval: Pipe call failed: Bad file descriptor
[...]
#/etc/rc.d/sshd restart
/etc/rc.subr: Pipe call failed: Too many open files in system

I am running 5.4-RELEASE-p6. Dual XEON 3.06GHz with 2 GB of RAM.

sysctl:
#sysctl -a kern.openfiles
kern.openfiles: 9607
#sysctl -a kern.maxfiles

A lot of users connects via ssh (x-forward). Also sometimes they can not
connect because of too many open files.

So what could be the problem? Any hints?

Thanks in advance.

Does it always die at the same place in the build?  Typically when
I've seen internal compiler error, bad hardware is the
culprit.  Especially if the build dies at different places each time.

It is always the same place where the build dies.
Also, trying to build the world, stops with a compiler error.
Ah, FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p6.

(2) portupgrade does not build
Trying to update amavisd-new or apache with portupgrade does not
work. It
just do nothing.
So, other ports are working to update, others not. So what could be
the
problem?

If you run portupgrade with -v, does it give any more detail?  Hard
to say what the problem might be without more details.  Based on your
first question, it's very likely to be a symptom of the same problem.

Uh, my fault. -v says that the port is up-to-date, but it is not.
Maybe a problem with the INDEX.
I have this problem also on a machine which builds ports and world without
any error, so i do not think it is based on the same problem.

gcc broken in my userland

2005-09-12 Thread Axel . Gruner

Hi,

i am running FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p6. If i try ro upgrade a port, i receive
a bus error from gcc.
So i installed the gcc34 from the ports, did the changes in /etc/make.conf,
and upgrading of the ports works fine.
The problem is, how to build the world if the gcc in the base system is
broken?
I get this error:

How to disable debugging in userland?

2005-09-07 Thread Axel . Gruner

Hi,

i know how to disable debugging for the kernel in 6.0, but how do i disable
debugging for the userland?
So is
ln -s 'aj' malloc.conf
the right choice (i did this with an early 5.x).

Antwort: Re: How to disable debugging in userland?

2005-09-07 Thread Axel . Gruner

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply.

 Userland programs are not installed with debugging information by
 default.  You have to specifically request that debugging *is* enabled,
 instead (by setting DEBUG_FLAGS either in your environment or in your
 /etc/make.conf file) and rebuild.

But /usr/src/UPDATING tells me that both, kernel- and userland debugging is
enabled per default.
So, maybe i misunderstood UPDATING or your answer ;-).
Ok, setting DEBUG_FLAGS looks fine, but, where can i find these? I can not
see them in man make.conf also not in make.conf example.

Strange securelevel

2005-07-22 Thread Axel . Gruner

Hi,

after playing a bit with securelevel i found a very strange one (well, i
thought there will be just -1, 0, 1, 2 and 3). But look at this:

#sysctl kern.securelevel
kern.securelevel: 2147483647

Thats the highest securelevel i found on my FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE.
So, whatr does it mean? Getting electro shocks when touching the mouse
and/or keyboard?
And, the man page ha to be rewritten, to explain the rest of the 2147483644
securelevel.

No, serious, is this a bug, or what?

I think there is a separate limit for sockets, which you may be
hitting.  Check with sysctl kern.ipc | grep socket.

I checked that:
# sysctl kern.ipc | grep socket

 When I need to clone a jail, would a cp -Rp do?

Yes and no. 
To do a exact copy of a jail, use the cpdup program (it is in the

 (and change rc.conf). Or do I have to go through
 the jail(8) steps again? (make hierarchy, install etc).

No. That would take to much time ;). Use cpdup.
Just change the IP and stuff in rc.conf. Also use a new startup script
on the host system /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ Thats it.

 By 'clone', I meant an identical jail session,
 on top of which I will install other packages,
 not necessarily same on both.

see above.
 
 Also can I hardlink a tree (outside) to inside
 the jail? assuming I don't mind it being writeable.
 Would it open a hole to the rest of the system?

You can use mount_nullfs from the host system. 
Or NFS to on the hostsystem. With that you can do a NFS mount from
/usr/ports of the hostsystem to /jail/usr/ports. I do that with my
jails. Works great.

4.8-PRE upgrade to 5.0 problems

2003-03-06 Thread Axel Gruner
Hi.

I cvsuped to FreeBSD 5.0 and i followed the instructions given in
/usr/src/UPDATING. buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel went fine. Ok,
i had to do a lot of changes in my kernelconfig to get it built and
installed, but it went without a major problem. 

So, i switched to single user mode to do a mergemaster -p and an
installworld. With installworld i got these errors:
[So that was my fault, i misunderstood UPDATING and thought that i have
only to switch from multi user to single user (i did not see the
reboot ;))]

Checking to see if your booted Kernel is fresh enough..
/usr/obj/usr/src/bin/sh/sh -c 'echo Testing installed kernel fpr new
sigaction(2) syscall' pid 60424/sh),uid0: exited on signal 12 (core
dumped) Bad system call (core dumped)
***Error code 140
Stop in /usr/src
***Error code 1
Stop in /usr/src

Well, ok, i read the first line and booted my machine, so that the new
Kernel can boot. Also if the machine will not boot correctly i will fall
to single user mode. This happend. Back in single user mode i did a
second installworld, and, surprise surprise, it worked without errors.
Ok, i rebooted the machine.

So, now on bootup i get these messages:

link_elf: symbol lminor undefined
link_elf: symbol splhigh undefined

And if i want to login, i get these:

login: $MYNAME
login:in openpam_load_module(): no pam:skey.so found
login:pam_start(): failed to load module

I cant login.
So, does this mean, some modules are missing? And how do i get the
system back running perfectly? 

And, a third error message appears on boottime:

Warning: userland calling deprecated sysctl, please rebuild world

Well, i booted the machine back in single user mode, mount all the
devices, and did a buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, mergemaster
and installworld again. The result? The same errors, plus something
other i did not recognize the first time (but was there):

When i use /usr/sbin/mergemaster -p i cant scroll the passwd down with
the arrow keys. If i open a config file with the vi, it looks a bit
strange, i cant move around in there and the config stuff is not one by
line, it looks a bit shaked. If i run /usr/sbin/mergemaster after
installworld, i get an error can't cd to /usr/src/etc. Strange. 

So, any help out there?

Thanks in advance.

The Readme tells you:

To create a snapshot of your /var filesystem, run the command:
mount -u -o snapshot /var/snapshot/snap1 /var

So, i  think you can only make a snapshot of a single filesystem. 
So, maybe your /var is not a single filesystem. 
If you want to be sure, type:
#mount
and take a look what kind of filesyste, you have.
It depends on how you installed FreeBSD. Normally you will have:
/
/usr
/tmp
(/var)

So, this _could_ be the problem, but i am not sure.

 129.x.x.35 gives me a 'host is down message' machine 2 can ping it's

 sorry if this is long, i've been messing with this all day and i think
 i'm doing it right. can you guys tell if i'm missing something

What about your /etc/resolv.conf? On both machines?
Did you insert the namserver of your ISP?

 In the jails rc.conf I have added the following line:

[...]
In most of the production environments where jail is currently in use,
one IP address is allocated to the host environment, and then a number
are allocated to jail boxes, with each jail box receiving a unique IP.
In this situation, it is sufficient to configure the networking
applications on the host to listen only on the host IP. Generally, this
consists of specifying the appropriate IP address to be used by inetd
and SSH, and disabling applications that are not capable of limiting
their address scope, such as sendmail, the port mapper, and syslogd.
Other third party applications that have been installed on the host must
also be configured in this manner, or users connecting to the jailbox
will discover the host environment service, unless the jailbox has
specifically bound a service to that port. In some situations, this can
actually be the desirable behaviour.[...]

 How can I prevent the other error messages! like the bind
 to port error of the sshd?

Well, the ssh on your Hostsystem binds on port 22. Also the sshd on your
jail wants to bind on Port 22. Well, ok, different IP numbers, but i
think sshd binds port 22 to all known IP addresses on the system. So,
when you hostsyste is up, it binds the host sshd also the the jail IP.
The result...

Just use another port for one the the sshd. 
Just put in the rc.conf:
sshd_flags=-p portnumber

Jail setup with FreeBSD 5.0

2002-12-23 Thread Axel Gruner
Hi.

I am trying to setup a jail in FreeBSD 5.0 RC2. 
I found out to use mount -t devfs / $D/dev instead of cd %D/dev; sh
MAKEDEV jail. So, i configured my jail a bit, and wanted to start it
with the command:jail /jail/ssh testhome 192.168.0.201 /bin/sh /etc/rc
But the jail is not starting, here the output:

hw.bus.devctl_disable: 1 - 1

So after that i mounted also procfs (like it is told in jail manpage).
Same result.

So, how different is it to setup up a jail in FreeBSD 5 compared to
FreeBSD 4.x? Or, where is my mistake?

Thanks in advance.

cdboot, boot.flp question

2002-11-29 Thread Axel Gruner
Hi.

I have seen that the bootloader on the FreeBSD 5.0-Current changed. 
I tried to install FreeBSD 4.6 and FreeBSD 5.0 DP1 on my Laptop, but no
chance at all. It stopped booting from CD with the output cant find
kernel (or similar).

Now i have booted FreeBSD-Current 5.0 snapshot (mid november), and, it
worked. 

So, what is the difference between the old cd boot loader and the new
one? The old one was boot.flp and the new one is cdboot? 

Thanks in advance.

It is a problem with the FreeBSD BTX Loader, imho. With the old one
loading scheme, a lot BIOSes getting in trouble and will yhow you the
message you have seen. I had that problem with an Acer Travelmate 512T.
The only way to install FreeBSD on this Laptop was via Floppy (you can
find them on the FTP Server). With FreeBSD-Current snapshot and
FreeBSD-DP2 you can also boot from the CD, the loader changed. Try them
out, or use the two installation floppies if you want ro run FreeBSD 
DP2.

Ever tried the tools watch?

Install rinetd from the ports.
In the rinetd.conf you will type:
your_IP 80 your_IP 8280
or
0.0.0.0 80 your_IP_in_a_jail 8280

postfix problem in jail

2002-10-18 Thread Axel Gruner
Hi.

So, i have a running jail and installed postfix from the ports in there.
My problem is, that postfix wont start in the jail. /var/log/maillog
shows:

ct 18 09:20:08 briefzentrum postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix
mail system Oct 18 09:20:08 briefzentrum postfix/master[481]: fatal:
parameter inet_interfaces: no local interface found for 127.0.0.1

So, what is the problem with that? 
How to setup a local interface for 127.0.0.1 in a jail, so that postfix
should start at boottime? 

Thanks in advance.

 jail. So, postfix trys to receive mail from the given pop account on
 my provider. It ends up with an error message, as i remember, i dont
 sit in front of the box right now, it cant find a smtp. So, postfix is
 not running in the jail like i thought. I configured postfix in the
 jail the same way as on the host system (just changed the domain
 name), and on the host system postfix is working perfectly. I stopped
 postfix on the host system and reboot my Box, but postfix is not
 starting in the jail(and also not on the host system). 
 
 So, where are the traps to get a working postifx and qpopper in a
 jail?

Yes, i know. But postfix is not starting in the jail, that is my main
problem. And, i used the same configuration as on the host system (where
postfix worked). So, i stopped postfix on the host system, but on the
jail it wont work... 
 1) fetchmail uses POP3 to speak to a POP3 server
 2) it gets the mail and then uses SMTP to an SMTP server to deliver
 the mail

Ok.
 
 Now, the SMTP server by default is localhost. You can configure
 fetchmail to talk to another host if that's your fancy.

Well, it should be localhost, but on on the localhost, the jail,
postifix does not start. Well, fetchmail is running, but without postfix
i cant use it ;).
