stay up to date with ports and packages, problem
Hi folks, i ran into problems keeping my ports-collection up to date. Although i did a portsnap fet and install i think there are obsolete an old ports still on the disk. I tried to compile a programm and it complained about an older version of a depending package. I deleted the whole ports-dir, did the fetch and extract again, problem persists still. Yes, i searched all the forums and read a lot about managing ports and packages. Right now i am stuck. So, how do i delete really *all* ports and *all* packages at once? Is it possible with doing a fectch and extract having the latest ports? I was recommended to use only portmaster and not to use sysinstall after a finished installation. Well, i dont know. -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/stay-up-to-date-with-ports-and-packages-problem-tp570.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: stay up to date with ports and packages, problem
Ok, many thanks for your replies. I forgot to tell that i recently upgraded from 8.1 to 9.0-RELEASE. That excplains maybe why i had obsolete/old packages/ports on my disk. The problem i had was that gdm, gnome didnt start after the upgrade. So i tried to build the gnome and gdm thing again via pkg_add(didnt work) and make install clean in ports(either). Right now i deleted all ports in /usr, deleted packages in /var and portsnaped me the all stuff again. After that i pkg_add -r gnome2 again and now it looks better. Before i had problems that package-1.2.3 is needed to build an only package-1.2.2 is installed. Sorry i cant paste logs, bsd is running on another machine. so long -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/stay-up-to-date-with-ports-and-packages-problem-tp570p5710066.html Sent from the freebsd-questions mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Perhaps if you change from: mra.co.id. v=spf1 mx to mra.co.id. v=spf1 mx -all That means that SPF compliant mail servers should refuse to accept messages (ie. a hard fail) from any machine other than the MXes for mra.co.id See http://www.openspf.org/SPF_Record_Syntax for the full story on SPF records. It's not a 100% solution and it will take the spammers some time to realise that forging your address in their e-mails is much less effective. On the positive side, it will mean that many mailservers reject the incoming spam during the SMTP dialog so you'll get fewer bounce messages. This problem exposes an architectural flaw in many e-mail server setups. Either all of the MXes for a domain have to be able to verify addresses on incoming e-mails and reject any non-existent destinations during the SMTP dialog, or (like Bill does above) once a message has been accepted by any of the mail servers for your domain, it should never be bounced back to the (probably forged) mail address in the headers because the recipient doesn't exist. Bouncing for other reasons, (like eg. mailbox over quota) does not generally add to the overall spam load. Normally a very simple site with just one server will get that right, but a more complex site with several MXes and various SMTP routers etc. internally will frequently not.

Iozone looks to be in the ports so I see some of my weekend disappearing looking at it :-) It runs on over two dozen operating systems, including windows. Their are two primary reasons I can get such high transfer rates from simple SATA drives. The first one was the selection of the mainboard that had a PCI-X slots, I built this system before PCI-Express mainboards and controllers hit the market. The PCI bus is severely restricted and obsolete, I'm simply going to post the theoretical maximum throughput in MB/s for the various bus standards: f(x,y) = x-bits * y-MHz / 8 = maximum theoretical throughput in MB/s PCI: 32 bits * 33 Mhz / 8 = 132 MB/s (standard PCI bus found on every pc) PCI: (32bits, 66MHz) = 264MB/s (Cards are commonplace, mainboards aren't) PCI-X: (64, 33) = 264MB/s (obsolete, won't find it on new boards.) PCI-X: (64, 66) = 528MB/s (Commonplace.) PCI-X: (64, 100) = 800 PCI-X: (64, 133) = 1064 (Commonplace.) PCI-X: (64, 266) = 2128 PCI-X: (64, 533) = 4264 (very hard to find, even on high-end equipment.) PCI-X version 1 (66MHz - 133MHz) and PCI-X version 2 (266MHz - 533MHz). PCI-X is backwards compatible with PCI and slower versions of PCI-X, for example you can put a standard PCI card in a PCI-X 533MHz slot and it will simply run at (32, 33) similarly a 66 MHz PCI card will run at (32, 66) and so on and so forth. PCI-X is also forwards compatible in the fact that you can run a 133MHz PCI-X card in a standard (32, 33) PCI slot. Because of the backwards and an forwards compatibly I feel that PCI-X is superior to PCI-Express, *BUT* PCI-Express moving forwards is far far superior to PCI PCI-X because it does not have 13 years of legacy to remain compatible with, it's cheaper to produce, and it's already in lower-end desktop systems as a replacement for AGP thanks to all the gamers. A few years from now PCI will end up where ISA / EISA are. I'm veering way off topic so I will not go into anymore details about PCI, PCI-X, and PCI-Express. Google around for the shortcomings of PCI / PCI-X and why PCI-Express is the future. PCI-Express: PCIe is not compatible with PCI or PCI-X (except for PCIe to PCI bridging) and it's just, well, totally different from the PCI spec and I'm already way off topic so again just google the details. It's theoretical maximums are expressed in Gigabits per second but I will convert them to MB/s for comparison with PCI and PCI-X. x1: 2.5Gbps = 312.5MB/s x2: 625MB/s x4: 1250MB/s x8: 2500MB/s x12: 3750MB/s x16: 5000MB/s x32: 1MB/s Anyways back on topic, what was the topic? Oh yes, why you won't see 200MB/s - 350MB/s if your using a standard PCI slot. If you look back up all the way at the top you will see that the standard PCI bus is a crap shoot and that it's limited to a theoretical maximum of 132 MB/s. What this means is that your RAID controller and the disks attached to it and the cache buffers attached to the disks are all capped at that theoretical maximum of 132MB/s. Then you have to take into account that the PCI bus is shared with other devices such as the network card, video card, USB, etc. Your RAID controller has to fight will all these devices and a 1Gbit NIC card can eat up 125MB/s (12.5MB/s for a 100Mbit NIC). The next reason for those high gains is because I picked drives with 16MB cache buffers and that I'm insane enough to run a production server with the write-back cache policy enabled on the array controller and enabling the write cache on the disks.

Re: SATA Raid (stress test..)
Your performance sucks because, to quote the manual, Input data is read and written in 512-byte blocks. Try a sensible blocksize. 16k would mimic a standard file system block, but even that is likely to underestimate. If you were, say, copying the disk to another you could easily use 1Mb. Some examples: dd if=/dev/ad10s1a of=/dev/null ^C794830+0 records in 794830+0 records out 406952960 bytes transferred in 164.049297 secs (2480675 bytes/sec) dd if=/dev/ad10s1a of=/dev/null bs=16k ^C53745+0 records in 53745+0 records out 880558080 bytes transferred in 21.092098 secs (41748245 bytes/sec) So from 2Mb/s to 41Mb/s! dd if=/dev/ad10s1a of=/dev/null bs=1m ^C933+0 records in 933+0 records out 978321408 bytes transferred in 13.836165 secs (70707556 bytes/sec) And up to 70Mb/s though nothing real world is likely to achieve that. There are a whole slew of ports (/usr/ports/benchmarks) some of which do disk tests. I've used unixbench in the past, which is a bit of a faff and does more than disks, but it works. If you run windows on the box and want graphical benchtests, then there are free apps out there that will do tests on disks, like Sandra. --Alex second tools is diskinfo, but i'm not quite happy with the result. #diskinfo -t /dev/amrd0s1d /dev/amrd0s1d 512 # sectorsize 96609024# mediasize in bytes (931G) 1953118377 # mediasize in sectors 121575 # Cylinders according to firmware. 255 # Heads according to firmware. 63 # Sectors according to firmware.

Some examples: dd if=/dev/ad10s1a of=/dev/null ^C794830+0 records in 794830+0 records out 406952960 bytes transferred in 164.049297 secs (2480675 bytes/sec) dd if=/dev/ad10s1a of=/dev/null bs=16k ^C53745+0 records in 53745+0 records out 880558080 bytes transferred in 21.092098 secs (41748245 bytes/sec) So from 2Mb/s to 41Mb/s! dd if=/dev/ad10s1a of=/dev/null bs=1m ^C933+0 records in 933+0 records out 978321408 bytes transferred in 13.836165 secs (70707556 bytes/sec) And up to 70Mb/s though nothing real world is likely to achieve that. There are a whole slew of ports (/usr/ports/benchmarks) some of which do disk tests. I've used unixbench in the past, which is a bit of a faff and does more than disks, but it works. If you run windows on the box and want graphical benchtests, then there are free apps out there that will do tests on disks, like Sandra. --Alex second tools is diskinfo, but i'm not quite happy with the result. #diskinfo -t /dev/amrd0s1d /dev/amrd0s1d 512 # sectorsize 96609024# mediasize in bytes (931G) 1953118377 # mediasize in sectors 121575 # Cylinders according to firmware. 255 # Heads according to firmware. 63 # Sectors according to firmware.

ipwcontrol load firmware on boot
Dear lists; I tried to do network auto configuration by DHCP with integrated Intel Pro Wireless 2100 wlan device (ipw2100). I have trouble when load firmware with ipwcontrol on boot. Initialitation script (/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ipw.sh) always execute after network init (specify in rc.conf). Is there any way to make ipwcontrol -i ipw0 -f /usr/local/share/ipw-firmware/ipw.fw command execute before network init. ?
