How to force a static /etc/resolv.conf?
I'm running 9.1. I run a local recursive resolver, so my /etc/resolv.conf needs to remain static. I have DHCPv4, DHCPv6 and VPN clients running which all want to modify /etc/resolv.conf. I have set in /etc/resolvconf.conf: search_domains=example.com. example.net. name_servers=2001:db8::53 But that only prepends that information. Search domains and nameservers from other sources still get included. I can set /etc/resolv.conf as immutable, but's a hack and it generates errors from resolveconf.

How to make local periodics run before base periodics?
I have some periodic scripts from ports that I need to run before periodic scripts in /etc/periodic; but I can't see how to make it so. Periodic always processes /etc/periodic before $local_periodic. If I move /etc/periodic/*/999.local file to 000.local and set: local_periodic= daily_local=/usr/local/etc/periodic/daily/* weekly_local=/usr/local/etc/periodic/weekly/* monthly_local=/usr/local/etc/periodic/monthly/* Then /usr/local/etc/periodic runs first, but it's not scalable since I moved a file that mergemaster cares about. It's also noisy because 999.local generates output for all scripts, even those that are not enabled. What is the proper way to make local periodics run before base periodics? ___ 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

Removing sendmail from an installed system
I'm removing sendmail entirely from an installed system. I had WITHOUT_SENDMAIL in /etc/src.conf when I updated to RELENG_8_3, but that left an old version of sendmail rotting away on disk. This is the list I have so far: /etc/mail/* (excluding mailer.conf) /etc/rc.d/sendmail /usr/bin/vacation /usr/libexec/mail.local /usr/libexec/sendmail /usr/libexec/smrsh /usr/sbin/editmap /usr/sbin/mailstats /usr/sbin/makemap /usr/sbin/praliases /usr/share/sendmail /var/spool/clientmqueue /var/spool/mqueue Is this list complete? I'm intentionally leaving the stuff for mailwrapper. I'm ok with leaving /etc/rc.d/sendmail behind as well, but it looks like it's not needed by anything (i.e., nothing requires mail). Even though I have WITHOUT_SENDMAIL specified and the world was built with that, mergemaster still installs /etc/mail/aliases and /etc/rc.d/sendmail.

looking for rack hosting company
Sorry if this is a bit off topic. I am looking to run a Freebsd server with a hosting company. Preferably on the cheaper side as our needs in the beginning will be somewhat limited. I would need enough ram/storage to do some trial and error with different databases. So the vmware virtual servers and limited ram are out. I recall at one time seeing a very reasonable outfit that would rent you a rack cpu for around $100/month range and after 2 years would ship it to you and give you a new one.

My problem arises when trying to install one of these which is put together quite well. pkg_add -r http://site/something.tbz, or pkg_add something.tbz doesn't work for the dependencies. So how do I tell pkg_add to fetch the first pkg from one site and the rest from the main sites? It is available in source but the system is void of pkg's at the moment and with the 1ghz processor and 512mb ram could take quite a while.

How to grow partition size on RAID volume?
Hi all- I need some help figuring out how to expand the existing partition on my RAID volume to take advantage of a new disk I just added -- without newfs'ing the volume and starting from scratch. I added a 4th 750GB disk to my existing 1.5TB 3ware RAID5 volume, in an attempt to bring my total capacity up to ~2.25TB (4x750GB RAID5). I successfully used the 3ware 'tw-cli' utility to perform Online Capacity Expansion. The controller migrated the existing data across all 4 disks, and it now reports a total volume capacity of 2095.44GB. Now, I'm not quite sure how to get FreeBSD to recognize the extra space. I know that in order to use growfs, I first have to use disklabel to increase the partition size. However, disklabel doesn't like this big RAID volume: # disklabel /dev/da0 disklabel: disks with more than 2^32-1 sectors are not supported and the existing partition doesn't seem to have a label: # disklabel /dev/da0s1 disklabel: /dev/da0s1: no valid label found I'm unsure how to proceed here. CAn anyone shed some light as to how I might proceed?

Re: Even more documentation?
quoth the Edward Ruggeri: It seems like the man pages would be a good place to go, but my trouble with using them is that they're difficult to put together the information on different pages. I suppose I want something like a textbook. I dream of a KR type text that is very comprehensive and well-organized. If anyone has advice, I'd very much appreciate it! Not sure how 'KR' like it is, but I have just finished reading 'Absolute FreeBSD' by Micheal W. Lucas. At 700+ pages it is almost textbook like. It seems comprehensive, and logically organized so that very little of the text depends on knowledge not yet explained. Plus, it is witty and well written IMHO. Speaking as a moderately experienced Linux guy new to FreeBSD it has served me well. Also, There is 'The Complete FreeBSD' by Greg Lehey available from O'Reilley (and for download from the author's site) but I haven't (yet!) read it so I cannot say much about it... Also, also, I seem to recall a 'further reading' section in the back of the FreeBSD handbook which had more suggestions.

Re: nfs firewall, hard vs soft mount
quoth the Colin Brace: Hi all, I have a FreeBSD v7 box set up as gateway/mailserver/WAP. I leave my WAP unencrypted, so my neighbors can use it, and use PF to allow just a few specific services (dhcp dns, http, https). I'd like to be able to mount a couple of NFS shares from a desktop box running Fedora on a wireless client. I've opened the sunrpc and nfs ports in PF, but that doesn't seem to be enough. tcpdump indicates some high upd ports in the 40k-50k range are used in the nfs negotiation, but I can't figure out exactly what is going on. Does anyone know what additional ports need to be opened for nfs? Will I need to use PF to redirect this udf traffic to the fedora host or will it find the nfs server on its own? 'rpcinfo -p server' will show the ports/proto you need open. However, it should change some each time because rpc.mountd, rpc.statd, and lockd assign ports dynamically. You can set a few NFS options to lock these down: Eg: RPCMOUNTDOPTS=-p 4002 RPCSTATDOPTS=-p 4000 Sadly, I have only ever run an NFS server on Linux, so I do not know if there is a config to set these, or if you have to add the '-p n' to the startup scripts directly. Also, On Linux you must set the lockd port at boot time. Perhaps there is a sysctl for this on FreeBSD?

Build a single kernel module?
Hi all, I recently built a custom kernel for my new FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE system, and it is working well. Sadly, I had to purchase and swap out a nic on this machine today. The new card is a D-link DGE-530T which shall work with the 'sk' driver. My custom kernel does not have this driver. I wonder if I can build this single driver as a module to use with my already built custom kernel. The handbook mentions using MODULES_OVERRIDE: If you want to update a kernel faster or to build only custom modules, you should edit /etc/make.conf before starting to build the kernel So as I understand it, if I add MODULES_OVERRIDE = sk to make.conf then it will build only the sk module? The page [0] is light on details so I am unsure hoe to proceed with this, ie: I just do a normal 'make installkernel' or some other way? Also, I did look around, but if there are some docs that speak more clearly to this issue a pointer would be great.

Re: Changing Console Video Modes
quoth the Edward Ruggeri: I'm just reading through the manual for FreeBSD, and I am at section 3.2.6 Changing Console Video Modes. This discusses how to change the default console resolution. I would try this out, but as I can only access my FreeBSD box remotely at the moment, I am hesitant to recompile the kernel with the necessary options (I currently get an error when running #vidcontrol -i mode: getting active vty: Inappropriate ioctl for device. I assume this is because the current kernel is insufficient?). I got this error too, over a ssh connection. vidcontrol worked fine when I tried it from the physical console. This was after rebuilding the kernel however. I'm afraid my computer might need to be booted by hand, which I wouldn't be able to do. I guess I would say hold off until you have physical access, because it makes no difference unless you are sitting in front. Perhaps it works over serial? I am not sure. In any case, lacking the ability to experiment, I am curious about different video modes. Will greater resolutions allow me to fit more text on the screen in the console? Yes. Plus it just looks nicer, for lack of a better term. Of course I know (maybe less than I think) about resolution in terms of graphical environments (e.g., can see more of a high-resolution image w/ a greater resolution), but is it the same for text? Can't speak to this issue technically, but it essentially allows you to use much smaller, yet readable fonts in the console. Thanks!

That all works nicely, I add a user to the system that needs to access ONLY two directories that are in two different places. For example: /usr/local/www/dir1 and /usr/local/www/dir2/ There are many directories in /usr/local/www/ that this person SHOULD not have access too. I also made this person a home directory: /usr/home/personX/. I then made the symlinks to the two directories they need to access. After all that setup I went into my /etc/ftpchroot file and added the following line: personX saved and I try to log on to test to see if it is locked in the home directory but has access to the two other directories they need. Does work, is there anyway to do this with the default ftpd package that comes with this? If you're attempting to restrict this FTP user to their home directory, then symlinks to directories outside of their home directory won't be accessible; this is the nature of chroot. You could create those directories in that user's home directory and create symlinks to those directories in the web directories (the opposite of what you have) and that might work how you want. If the permissions on your user's home directory are restricted you'd probably have to modify permissions so that the web user could access them. -- Darren Spruell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

It runs OK, not great, using the native xorg 7.3 driver which has no GL support. Do you (anyone?) know if it is possible to use dual-monitor support in the X.org nv driver? I don't need 3D acceleration necessarily, but I've been of the impression that TwinView is needed for usable dual-monitor capabilities. Someone (I thought) had mentioned earlier that this driver didn't support Xinerama correctly (everything stretched across two monitors). I don't have any idea what to do except wait for a new driver or xorg release that might fix this. I notice it seems to be an unpopular sentiment in the FreeBSD community, but as a user I feel it's worth mentioning it's upsetting being at the mercy of a binary blob kernel driver.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SMP i386).
Earlier today we ran into a case where we were intermittently unable
to write to files on the mounted filesystem. The following errors were
encountered when this occurred:
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 5412
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 5417
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 5422
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 5531

smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 7297
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 12
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 15
smb_iod_recvall: drop resp with mid 18

smbfs rw,-N,late 0 0
While this host was experiencing these issues a different FreeBSD host
also encountered issues with a different share on the same Windows
server. I think this points to issues of some sort on the Windows
filesystem, but I'd like to understand the smb_iod_recvall output. I
think this is the relevant code, with a check on line 361 resulting in
the error. Is there enough information to suggest what might be wrong
on the remote system to cause this?

The problem is that the search results[1] also tell me the filesystem may well be hosed and the reboot won't be clean.

Re: Blocking undesirable domains using BIND
On Dec 30, 2007 9:52 AM, Maxim Khitrov [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I was trying to do something similar. I didn't research too hard, but figured the only way to use Bind would be to make my server authoritative for all those domains, which meant a huge config file and potential overhead, as well as possibly breaking access to desirable servers in the domains. So hosts seemed easier, but apparently Bind never looks at hosts. I did find that Squid (which I already had installed and in limited use) has its own DNS resolver, and it does look at hosts first before going to the nameserver. Then I found this site: http://everythingisnt.com/hosts.html and put their list in hosts, and now client PCs get a squid error in place of ad junk. Works ok for me ;) Well... you were right about overhead. In the last two days I wrote a script that would fetch a list of domains from several different sites, and output a valid BIND configuration file that could be included in the main config. I just ran the second test and the results are extremely poor. With only 27,885 blocked domains the server is now consuming 208 MB of ram. The first time I tried reloading the full list of domains (91,137 of them) and that nearly crashed my server. Had to kill bind, remove two of the largest sources, and try a second time. Nearly 100,000 zones on that server is a fairly impressive amount. Give it credit for what you're trying to do. :) Nonetheless, crashing is unacceptable. Honestly, I can't figure out what BIND could possibly be using so much memory for. It's taking up about 7 KB for each zone. The zone file itself is not even 1 KB, and given that all the records are pointing to the exact same thing it seems to be needlessly wasting memory. In addition to that, if I comment out the blacklist config file and run rndc reload, it only frees up about 16 MB. So it doesn't even release memory when it is no longer needed. My experience, albeit with a smaller number of zones, is a bit different. First you need to account for main program memory and memory utilized by the nameserver's cache, if any. You may also be running your own authoritative zones which will add memory utilization outside of that. You can't account for all of the utilized memory in your additional blocking zones. Without my blocking zones loaded, I have 6 native zones on my nameserver and the resident memory size of named is 2.2 MB. After a fresh server startup, I expect minimum memory for cached records, so that comes out to be about 375 KB/zone, unscientifically. If I restart named (kill and start server fresh) with my blocking zones in the config, I come out with 17239 zones and a resident process memory size of 59 MB. (Unscientifically again,) this breaks down to about 3.5 KB/zone. In my configuration, each of these blocking zones points to a simple zone file 244B in size on disk: $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA ns.local. admin.local. ( 1 ; serial 1h ; refresh 30m ; retry 7d ; expiration 1h ); minimum IN NS ns.local. IN A 127.0.0.1 * IN A 127.0.0.1 So all told, I seem to notice somewhat slimmer utilization than you (roughly half the memory utilization per zone, and though I have 61% as many zones loaded my named takes only 28% of the memory yours does.) It looks like my plan of using BIND for filtering purposes will not work. Given how poorly it performed on this test I'm actually inclined to try another name server to see if something else would be more memory-efficient. You will almost certainly find most of the popular alternatives to be much more resource efficient. djbdns in particular would be my next choice if memory efficiency and stability are concerns.

Yes, of course, we have data backup and can restore after reinstalling everything, but I was looking for a complete system restore option. I'll look into these docs, thanks. There is no tape system, so I guess the only hope is if it can be dumped and restored from an NFS drive. From looking at the docs, it does appear this is possible, as long as the data in on a fs mounted by fstab? Can be data on a mounted fs or an umounted filesystem altogether: 'files-to-dump' is either a mountpoint of a filesystem or a list of files and directories on a single filesystem to be backed up as a subset of the filesystem. In the former case, either the path to a mounted filesystem or the device of an unmounted filesystem can be used.

My 17000+ zones are loaded from the DNS-BH project and increase the startup time of named to about 10 seconds and bump the resident memory size up to about 55M. (AMD Duron 750MHz). There's no real performance hit per se by DNS blackholing, other than the resource utilization increase needed for handling additional zones; your name server would normally be handling these DNS lookups anyway.You're just overriding the response locally rather than recursing for it. The zones themselves typically end up being very small, like a single wildcard record pointing to 127.0.0.1 or a honeypot or whatever.

Re: Small Unix install

Mutt, Fluxbox and a minimal browser would make me happy. I don't have the time or inclination to roll my own again. PCBSD can't finish the install due to only having 96mb of memory.

Yes, there's plenty of options for very small Unix installs. Those you've tried have been the modern desktop-oriented distributions of FreeBSD and they of course don't shoot for the older class of systems.

Fits in 22 MB: # df -h Filesystem SizeUsed Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0a 236M 22.1M202M10%/ Granted your desktop build will be plenty larger, but 300 MB is certainly achievable.

Re: Blocking undesirable domains using BIND
On Dec 27, 2007 1:46 PM, Maxim Khitrov [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I'm currently setting up a new firewall for my home network using FreeBSD 7. The firewall will also act as our local name server (authoritative for the local domain, and caching for everything else). One of the things I'd like to do with it is use BIND to block various undesirable domains (ad servers, malicious sites, etc.). The plan is to have a separate BIND config file which is included in the main one. In that file I map all the blocked domains to either the empty zone or perhaps my local web server that's just serving a blank page for any request. Haven't decided which way is better yet. This file is updated periodically (once a week maybe) and BIND is then told to reload the config. That's the plan as it stands now, eventually I hope to add a web interface to the system for adding and removing blocked domains. My question for you guys is if know any _reliable_ sources for getting that list of domains in the first place? I currently use the hosts file on all my machines, which is about 2MB in size and hasn't been updated in several years. I'll definitely import all of those entries myself, but it would be good if I could periodically pull an updated list from somewhere else. The following site has a pretty decent collection of ad servers, though it's a bit short compared to what I already have: http://pgl.yoyo.org/adservers/. It even provides the list in a BIND format, meaning that I don't need to do any additional processing with it. Just fetch the page and reload BIND. This, however, is not one of my requirements. I'm perfectly happy getting just a list of the domains (in any format), and then processing them into a BIND config file myself. Just need good sources. What are your recommendations? Look into the Blackhole-DNS project, formerly one of the BleedingThreats projects hosted at http://www.bleedingsnort.com/blackhole-dns/. This project tracks many hostile domains and produces BIND format files for this very purpose. It's not a great resource for ad blocking, as it focuses mainly on security threats (spyware, other malware, etc.) Since there has been some shuffling and reorganization happening around the BleedingThreats project, it's in a state of flux right now.

I understand this is necessary if you want the daemon to run at boot time but why is this necessary if you want to run it manually once the box is on ? /etc/rc.d/named is the rc script to control (start, stop etc.) named, and this script is inactive unless you've specified that named is to be enabled using the named_enable variable. You can get around the need to activate the variable by prefixing your commands with the 'force' keyword (e.g. /etc/rc.d/named forcestart, etc.) Use sockstat(1) to figure out if the control port (953/tcp) is listening. 'sockstat -4l' should show a listener on 127.0.0.1:953. Also, 'start' is not a valid command to rndc. You would have a chicken and egg problem; if named has not been started, then there is no service to handle the start command to rndc.

Set perms on attach of USB umass disk
I've been trying (and failing) to figure out how to adjust ownership
or permissions of a USB memory stick on device attach.
umass0: SanDisk Corporation Cruzer Mini, rev 2.00/0.20, addr 5
da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: SanDisk Cruzer Mini 0.4 Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device
da0: 1.000MB/s transfers
da0: 977MB (2001888 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 977C)
$ usbdevs -v
Controller /dev/usb0:

Intel(0x), rev 1.00
port 1 addr 2: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, Dell USB Keyboard
Hub(0x1004), Dell(0x413c), rev 48.01
port 1 addr 3: low speed, power 90 mA, config 1, Dell USB Keyboard
Hub(0x2006), Dell(0x413c), rev 48.00
port 2 addr 5: full speed, power 100 mA, config 1, Cruzer
Mini(0x5150), SanDisk Corporation(0x0781), rev 0.20
I've tried altering devfs.conf but this appears to only work for
devices that are attached at startup of devfs. I've tried configuring
devd(8):
attach 100 {
device-name da[0-9]+s1;
action /bin/chmod 0660 $device-name;
};
attach 100 {
device-name da[0-9]+;
action /bin/chmod 0660 $device-name;
};
Neither of these seem to result in the permission change I'm after
(making device writable by my user which is in the operator group):
$ ls -l /dev/da0*
crw-r- 1 root operator0, 165 Oct 21 13:08 /dev/da0
crw-r- 1 root operator0, 166 Oct 21 13:08 /dev/da0s1
What's the right way to handle this?

Re: Set perms on attach of USB umass disk
I've tried altering devfs.conf but this appears to only work for devices that are attached at startup of devfs. [snip] As a matter of fact, this is documented in the devfs.conf manual page. This will also tell you where to look; Yep: It does not work for devices plugged in and out after the system is up and running, e.g. USB devices. See devfs.rules(5) for setting ownership and permissions for all device nodes, and usbd.conf(5) for actions to be taken when USB devices are attached or detached. I overlooked that for some reason. :( create a new file /etc/devfs.rules with contents [system=10] add path 'da*' mode 660 group operator Then in /etc/rc.conf add devfs_system_ruleset=system and restart devfs (/etc/rc.d/devfs restart) Works great, thanks. -- Darren Spruell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: nvidia-driver rebooting machine on X startup
On 9/18/07, Eric Ekong [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
Seems there is a new driver in ports as of yesterday for nvidia.
Anyone tried it as of yet?
The update alone hasn't done anything for me, but I'm thinking I'm
suffering from an issue not directly related to the driver itself;
stale libraries like Mel suggested, or something.
I just completed an update to xorg-7.3_1 following the procedure in
UPDATING 20070519. Now running FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p7 and
nvidia-driver-100.14.11 and the reboot still occurs when starting X.
Something else I noticed is that my xorg.conf gets truncated to 0
bytes when I 'startx' and hit a reboot. I can't figure what would
cause this, and it's intermittent (post reboot I'll sometimes see the
file whole whole, sometimes truncated). Must be connected somehow to
the reboot?
On the off chance it had anything to do with stale libraries, how
would I determine which those were and how to right what is wrong? I
don't see anything notable in the output of ldconfig -r, but I'm not
certain I know what to look for. I'll include the ldconfig* related
configurations from rc.conf and ldconfig -r output below. Any other
ideas?

Re: Strange port 80 access problem
On 9/12/07, Reid Linnemann [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Written by Beech Rintoul on 09/12/07 11:14 It's very possible that your ISP is blocking port 80. It seems more and more of them are doing that with home subscribers. I know someone who has service with one of the large telcos and they not only block port 80, but mail and ftp as well. They told him if he wanted to run servers he would have to subscribe to business service at 5X the cost of residential. I've had a similar experience with COX Communications in the US midwest. They block http, https, alternate http ports like 8000 and 8080, smtp, and I think pop and imap/imaps. I'm sure part of the reason for this paranoid behavior is to protect their networks from saturation from bots and whatnot, but part of me thinks they just want to stick it to their customers whom they view as pesky annoyances rather than valuable consumers. I circumvent these hassles by boring ssh tunnels to the services I need access to on my home machines. This is a stopgap until I get time to fiddle with openvpn. It might depend where you are on their network, but there's some inconsistencies with the blocking. Port 80 is blocked, but port 443 is allowed. Port 25 is blocked, but 587 is allowed. 135, 137, 139, and 445 are blocked. 8080, 8081, and 1 get through to my network. Most other ports are allowed by default. Like it or hate it, it's a control designed to support their subscriber AUP, which states pretty plainly that customers are forbidden to host servers on the home user accounts (http://www.cox.com/policy/ #6). Business lines have such restrictions listed and allow hosting services by policy, and puts the burden of security on the customer rather than attempting to enforce by technical means.

'X -configure' runs fine and produces a configuration without issue, but the reboot occcurs when launching X. Nothing is output to screen (it flickers as if starting X), and nothing is written to /var/log/Xorg.0.log. I do get the same behavior if running 'xorgcfg'. Did you reinstall/upgrade X after having installed nvidia-driver? X actually overwrites libraries that nvidia-driver installs so you have to reinstall nvidia-driver every time you upgrade X. I remember having had some bad crashes some time ago because X overwrote nvidia GLX libraries. Best regards, Jona Nope - driver was the most recent thing installed. I'm looking into AGP options as suggested earlier... didn't realize that this _needed_ AGP support to function. -- Darren Spruell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
syslogd, exec and alarms
I have a syslog.conf line that has a selector pointing to action that is a perl script. The script takes action based on the content of the line passed to it. Simple stuff. Works fine. Wanting to be resource sensitive, I would like the script to terminate after so many idle seconds - its likely to get occasional bursts of input with quiet periods here and there. No problem, set an alarm with a maximum idle time and shutdown if it fires. This works fine if I execute the script from the command line. Doesn't work at all if spawned by syslogd. I assume syslogd or the sh being fired to spawn the command are grabbing the alarm signal for themselves. I am missing something obvious. Is there any way to make this work? As it is I can keep the program going all the time or I can have syslogd respawn it every time a line is sent. Neither option is appealing. This problem seems to be relatively resistant to google searches for me thus far. -Darren ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Net/Force install
Hello, The co-host that i use to host my email, web and DNS doesn't offer the option of using FreeBSD. This isn't really a problem per-se, but i would *really* rather use FreeBSD as it is what i am accustomed to and most comfortable using. So, off to my question. They offer a rescuemode where i can boot into and have full access to the disks. Do you think it would be possible to maybe create an image of an existing BSD install with the same disk makeup, etc. and dd it to the remote disk? Have any of you ever attempted this before? The procedure that i was planning to use involved using dd to pipe the image over a netcat connection.

Xorg/Gnome 2.16 stops responding to mouse clicks
hey all- I've got an issue where Xorg/Gnome 2.16 stops responding to mouse clicks - I can click, say, 3 or 4 times once Xorg first launches, but then it's hit and miss. Some interface elements are clickable, most are not. I have no problem moving the mouse around. Sometimes, intermittently, the ability to click will be restored. I was eager to blame my wireless logitech mouse, but if connectivity were an issue then I would also have issues moving the pointer around. I can't tell you when the problem started or for how long it's been going on, I haven't been running Xorg for many months now, so it's all new to me. PRior to this issue, my entire nautils desktop background vanished, and I reinstalled Gnome to fix it. Corruption somewhere? Driver issue? Any thoughts?

FreeBSD 6.1 installer doesn't recognize ICH5R RAID1
hi all- doing a clean install to 6.1, and i've decided to set up my system drives as RAID 1 now that I see that 6.1 has support for the ICH5R raid controller. My BIOS recognizes the SATA RAID 1 array correctly, but the FreeBSD installer still sees 'ad4' and 'ad6' as two separate drives. The installer has no problem with my 3ware 9500-based RAID5 array. FWIW, ad4 and ad6 both have old installs of freebsd 5.4 on them, including bootloaders, not sure if that's causing some of the confusion here. any thoughts? thanks, darren david ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Need help switching between two FreeBSD boot drives
hi all- i've got one i've been tearing my hair out over here, and even after finding some information out there, i'm still totally lost. this may take a while to explain, so please bear with me. I've got 2 80GB SATA drives in my FreeBSD machine, which are mapped as /dev/ad4 and /dev/ad6. I've got 5_STABLE installed on 1 drive, and my plan is to get a working install of 6_STABLE on the other drive, so i can take my time to work out the kinks with the upgrade on the 2nd drive (it hasn't been straighforward) and be able to switch back to my working 5_STABLE machine as needed. That's the plan, anyway. So I followed the general instructions here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/book.html#NEW-HUGE-DISK to clone drive 1 over to drive 2. very cool, no problems, i can pick either drive in the bootloader and boot up there. so all is well and good until i boot into drive 2 and start the upgrade process. I realize the /dev/ad4 and /dev/ad6 are not exactly fixed. It seems almost arbitrary which drive ends up mapped as /dev/ad6 and /dev/ad4, and this caused me to nearly munge all of the data on the working 5_STABLE install before i caught myself. If i boot into drive 1 at boot time, everything ends up being mounted at /dev/ad6. If i mount into drive 2 at boot time, the same thing happens. Mind you, i /did/ check /etc/fstab to ensure that all was well, but i ended up with a weird situation where, say, / would be /dev/ad4s1a and all of the other mountpoints were at /dev/ad6*. ugh. confusing! I found this page, which explains the problem /somewhat/: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html but to be completely honest, the concept didn't stick. What i need help with, since these drives are exactly the same size and make, is how i can do the following: 1) determine the relationship between Drive 1/Drive 2 and ad4/ad6 2) determine exactly which physical drive i am working on at any given time, since the /dev node mappings seem to be malleable 3) enable an environment where i can safely and surely boot into either drive and know for a fact that the right partitions are mounted ( all of the data on all of the partitions aside from / is mirrored, so it's practically impossible to tell which drive is which ) 4) (bonus points) My bootloader shows the following on boot: F1: FreeBSD F2: FreeBSD F5: Drive 1 a) I've only got 1 FreeBSD install on this drive, so what is F2? It just beeps at me when i try it b) I assume that F5: Drive 1 means that the drive i'm staring at the options for is Drive 2, adn that selecting F5 will toggle to Drive 1?

HP-UX NFS client
synopsis: freebsd NFS server, HP-UX NFS client. Client succeeds if it uses automount to mount the volumes but fails if a manual mount is used despite options. question: anyone have experience in a similar enviroment that can point me toward a solution? We use HP's Data Protector as an enterprise backup solution (formerly known as omniback). It only supports NFS backups of FreeBSD systems. I'm having an issue manually mounting volumes from a FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE (using source from 12/7) system on an HP-UX 11i (11.11) system. If I automount the volumes everything works fine and the HP system is able to hook up as expected and it can access the desired files. However, if I try to manually mount the volumes I get: nfs mount: getaddr_nfs: monhegan: NFS service not responding(retry delay=5s) nfs mount: retry: retrying(1) for: /monhegan after 5 seconds nfs mount: retry: giving up on: /monhegan I've tried forcing the version to 2 (as well as 1) - still returns the same thing, no apparent change in behavior. I've made sure the HP box's nsswitch.conf is pointing to files for everything - still returns the same thing. Numerous other combinations of options have been tried with no luck - I can not duplicate automounts success. So... automount (not autofs) on the HP box works differently then a manual mount in some undefined way or at least uses a set of options for the mount that I've not attempted. nfsstat -m on an HP-UX system, with a manually mounted NFS filesystem will display the options and flags used to do the mount. It displays nothing for automounted filesystems. I'm not aware of anything on the FreeBSD system that would tell me what options an NFS client used to connect. Watching with tcpdump on the freebsd system I see that both the manual and automount attempts make connections to the box, but they do look different: manual mount: PORTMAP V2 GETPORT in PORTMAP V2 GETPORT Reply out MOUNT V3 NULL Call in MOUNT V3 NULL Reply out MOUNT V3 MNT Call in MOUNT V3 MNT Reply : : auto mount: NFS V2 NULL Call in NFS V2 NULL Reply out PORTMAP V2 GETPORT Call in PORTMAP V2 GETPORT Reply out TCP port 712 in TCP port 712 out MOUNT V1 EXPORT Call in MOUNT V1 EXPORT Reply out : : Unfortunately, we've had little luck using automounted volumes with Data Protector so we wish to manually mount the volumes in the pre-backup script an then umount them in the post-backup script.

Replying to my own post for the archive. It turned out that for whatever reason rpcinfo was not reporting out nfs. I suspect I probably caused rpcbind to restart at some point without restarting nfsd. After rebooting the box rpcinfo did report out. The reason the automount on the client machine worked was that it didn't care about rpc issue.
