Re: process always running
Hi Gian Paolo Buono [Thu, Nov 27, 2008 at 02:05:44PM +0100]: there is a method in freebsd for restart process whenever it terminates ? I use in linux respawn in inittab... One possibility that comes to mind is using daemontools [0]. Should be in ports but there are probably easier ways to achieve this.

Re: Upgrading firmware/bios/boot on Areca ARC-1210
Hi Bob Bob Willcox [Fri, Aug 22, 2008 at 07:41:52AM -0500]: I posted this same question on freebsd-scsi a few days ago but got no response there so I thought I try here. Can't really answer your question but I've found the Areca support to be very responsive and helpful. Just fill out the form on http://www.areca.com.tw/support/ask_a_question.htm. They usually answer within a few hours. hope to help, Dominik -- Dominik Meister My public GnuPG key is available at http://www.meisternet.ch/gpg.txt pgpfXEp27IDaM.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: FreeBSD, Ubuntu and Win XP on one system
Jason W. Morgan [Mon, Aug 11, 2008 at 12:49:15PM -0400]: GRUB menu. It's not difficult, but it does add an extra step. Also, be sure to keep a backup of your modified GRUB config---it seems that each time Ubuntu decides it needs to perform a significant update, it replaces the GRUB config with the default, making FreeBSD once again inaccessible. There is probably a way to prevent this, but I never got around to investigating it. Just for the records: The way to prevent this is very simple. Just add custom entries to menu.lst outside of the section marked by the following lines: ### BEGIN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST ## lines between the AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST markers will be modified ## by the debian update-grub script except for the default options below ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST (never mind the mentionning of Debian, this has been copied from a Ubuntu machine) br, Dominik -- Dominik Meister My public GnuPG key is available at http://www.meisternet.ch/gpg.txt pgpM1JVNvaOhw.pgp Description: PGP signature
BTX halted on boot
Hi We are experiencing a problem with one of our FreBSD 6.2 machines. The machine has been running fine for months until we had to reboot it. Now it doesn't boot anymore. After the boot loader we get what looks like a register dump: FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)heap boot: /boot/kernel/kernel\ int=000e err=0002 efl=00010086 eip=c042426a eax=c06da7a8 ebx=c06da7a0 ecx= edx=f000ff53 esi= edi=c06da57f ebp=c08f6d4c esp=c08f6d40 cs=0008 ds=0010 es=0010fs=0010 gs=0010 ss=0010 cs:eip=89 42 0c eb 07 90 8d 43-08 89 46 14 89 5e 10 8d 46 10 89 43 0c 8b 47 0c-89 43 10 85 c0 74 0b 8b ss:esp=7f a5 6d c0 00 00 8f 00-00 e0 8f 00 64 6d 8f c0 75 3b 42 c0 a0 a7 6d c0-7f a5 6d c0 20 a5 6d c0 BTX halted and the machine reboots. Any suggestions what might be the problem? All I can find about BTX halted references to problems when installing a fresh system and not out of a sudden on machine which has been running fine before. Any hints are highly appreciated. Thanks, Dominik -- Dominik Meister My public GnuPG key is available at http://www.meisternet.ch/gpg.txt pgphDIBbMvRwY.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: ssh - connect to directory outside of /user/home - permission denied
Turner Litigation Services [Fri, May 30, 2008 at 06:28:26PM -0700]: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/data/pub/ gives permission denied errors. According to the unison manual the syntax in the configuration would be: root = ssh://[EMAIL PROTECTED]//path/to/file If you just want to copy some files, you could also use scp: scp [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/path/to/file .
