Re: A very 'trivial' question about /root
ASV: This is a very 'trivial' question but it's bugging me since quite a while now so I gotta ask. There's any reason (and should be a fairly good one) why the /root directory permissions by default are set to 755 (for sure on releases 8.0/8.1/9.0/9.1) I imagine / needs those permissions during installation but maybe they should be changed to something more desirable at post-install. What would you suggest -- maybe 555? -ayan ___ 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

I had convinced myself that I was being told that I had to use a Windows instance but then found this AMI. It launched for T1.micro, always with the note that it was available for the free-tier which is important to me. Have I been too optimistic or is it, indeed, running with the free-tier restrictions? 2. Unfortunately, after I had spent a couple of hours on installing ports, I installed pkgng. It seemed to install OK but then when I ran pkg2ng it didn't work throwing the following error message twice. /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Undefined symbol Quiet referenced from COPY relocation in /usr/sbin/pkg_info. and then ... Conversion has been successfully finished Your old packages database has been moved to: /var/db/pkg.bak There is no sign of a pkg.bak anywhere on the machine and, of course, pkg_* tools don't work. /var/db/pkg is still fully populated with what looks like the correct files. There is also no perl installed So my question is Is there any way I can recover pkg_* tools or get pkgng to function? With only a couple of hours in it, I'm tempted to just start over and use one of the RELEASE AMIs. 3. I also noted a thread where Colin Percival talked about an initial launch as c1.medium to set things up and then restarting as t1.micro. Won't this trigger a minimum bill for 1 month being added to my free-tier $0.00?

The reply I got was that this work to get FreeBSD running without the additional cost is in their to-do list but it is not of high priority. To make them increase the priority one thing that can be done is for users to mention or request it in their forums. The discussions happening in the forums adds to the priority of a task.

Re: Single boot EFI Mac install

I have Mac Pro that runs Mac OS on on disk (actually a pair in a software RAID) and FreeBSD from another pair (gmirror RAID). I suspect that I could pull the MacOS disks from the system and it would happily run as a FreeBSD only machine. I believe that I set up the disks using the mac tools and then did an install from a DVD, but it's been a while. The only particularly trick-ish part is that I had to partition the FreeBSD disks using MBR style partitions, that's (part of?) what the Mac firmware uses to decide to turn on it's PC-style BIOS emulation, which FreeBSD needs before it can get itself going. GPT partitions will not work. Every once in a while the machine hangs at boot time but I haven't seen it in a while.

The drive spins down frequently because of lack of activity, and takes quite a few seconds to spin up.

Does anybody have a suggestion about how I could go about investigating this issue? Shouldn't there be a log of the 'unrecoverable error' somewhere?

Lennart Poettering: BSD Isn't Relevant Anymore http://bsd.slashdot.org/story/11/07/16/0020243/Lennart-Poettering-BSD-Isnt-Relevant-Anymore Interestingly enough, a great deal of it is true. It might be interesting to know how others feel about it. Obviously, asking that question on this forum is like playing against a stacked deck; however, it still might prove interesting. Having come to BSD from Linux less than a month ago, I find it interesting that the very thing, which Mr. Pottering is encouraging in Linux development, is what has lead me to search for other options besides Linux. Of late Linux has been loosing the 'plays well with others award'. First they cut the .AppleDouble support from the appletalk drivers, then they refused to let the ReiserFS code into the kernel, and I suppose their lack of implementing ZFS is possibly same motivation (given that they _do_ have the man power to port the code). If they feel that they are an end-all and be-all and don't need to support legacy systems, obscure hardware, or other ways of doing things, well, I'll find another way. This thing is about Freedom, if they cut that from their development plan, then it's time to say farewell. Pottering seems to have forgotten, or perhaps he is too young to remember? Linux was a 'toy OS'. And if it's too big a burden to support 'toy OS'es then Pottering is no different from the people who worked at the big companies twenty years ago. Getting back to the message I'm replying to, I disagree with mr pottering's basis statements: If Debian was my project I'd try to focus on making (or keeping) it _professionally relevant_ -- I'll translate this as: If it ain't business and making money, drop it. ...we want to make sure Linux enters the mainstream all across the board. -- This sounds like desktop systems to me, but there is much more to the world than the shrinking market share of the desktop. UNIX was born in the research world as a pet project to have fun -- written after hours. BSD continued that journey toward freedom recoding the parts of UNIX that had been stripped out by unscrupulous business dealings. Hopefully Linux won't turn out to be an evolutionary miss-step, but... If Kerningham and Richie were focused on staying 'professionally relevant' UNIX would never have /existed/, and as its decedents, neither would have BSD or Linux. Is BSD relevant? Looks like it's /essential/ given the context of the question. Live Free.

Is there any way around this ? Is there some way to specify an alternate login shell when I use scp or rsync ?

Xircom realport in 8.1-RELEASE - how do I determine proper cbb.start_memory ?
It appears that many PCMCIA network cards no longer work in FreeBSD - this is documented here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=115623 However there appears to be a workaround, wherein one sets their hw.cbb.start_memory value manually. Suggested values for xircom cards are: sysctl hw.cbb.start_memory=0xf480 sysctl hw.cbb.start_memory=0x3000 However, neither of these values work for me, and I continue to get this kind of error: dc1: No station address in CIS! etc. I am happy to use this workaround, I just wonder how do I determine the proper value for this sysctl ? My xl0 network interface works, and I see that its settings are: port 0xec80-0xecff mem 0xf8fffc00-0xf8fffc7f How do I compute the proper sysctl setting for my xircom realport cards ?

A new zfs filesystem worked OK too. *HOWEVER*, the moment I *do* something to the zpool like zpool scrub pool I get a vdev failure (type=vdev.bad_label) and the pool is ruined. It can't be destroyed or exported anymore. It's just a waste. I tested this behaviour on 10 different drives. Four of them brandnew. It happened everytime again. It is not the drives! Booting into OpenSolaris b134 I am perfectly able to create workable ZFS mirrors out of the drives. I can also scrub them ;-) ;-) or whatever io related thing I want to do. This leads me to the conclusion that something is definitely wrong with ZFS in FreeBSD-8.1/amd64. For the moment I created some gmirrors on a couple of drives, but man, how I'd liked to have zpools. They work zo much sweater/easier. Am I alone in these matters? Are there any known issues regarding ZFS. I know there are some in FreeBSD-9 (at least I saw some reports on vdev.bad_label messages) on nabble.com You haven't provided enough information for me to make a concrete suggestion, but this kind of thing often seems to boil down to something getting confused over slices and partitions when they both have the same extent (start-end) on disk. This used to bite me in the gmirror world until I learned to make the partition one block smaller than the slice it lived in. Are you using explicit device names to add the disks to your pool? If so you'll gain robustness by using labels, either glabels as described here: http://submesa.com/data/bsd/zfs or if you're in the gpt world then gpt labels as described in the gpart commands illustrated here: http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/Mirror g. ___ 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: jail and uname

I know the jail is running a pristine minimum install of 8.0-RELEASE. I would think issuing uname from within a jail environment should respond with the info of the jail environment. Is this not a security violation? I'm guessing your understanding of jails is a bit off. A FreeBSD jail isn't a fully virtualised system. As implemented, jails share the host system's kernel. The Handbook makes clear that a jail is essentially defined by a directory subtree, a hostname, an IP address, and a command. Well, that, and things like user accounts. So when you run uname, what's reported is kernel information as stored in various sysctl(8) MIBs (kern.ostype, kern.osrelease, kern.osrevision, kern.version, etc.). And because there's only one kernel, you'll get the same output from running uname on the host as you would get from running it inside a jail. -- George ___ 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

Something like.

short_ip=need command to strip off the 2 so short_ip contains 10.0.10.
and ip_suffix= ends up holding the 2, then add 1 to the ip_suffix.

Offhand, I don't see a mechanism for doing so. Cleverer ideas welcome. I did something similar for PXE scenarios but eventually decided I was spending more time coming up with clever ideas than I would have saved making use of any of them. The approach I took was to write a custom loader.rc (with an include for each of the possible options), but IIRC everything was presented via a rudimentary menu. For customising the existing menu, if you read through loader(8), and then have a look at what's provided in /usr/share/examples/bootforth, you should be able to figure things out without too much trouble. -- George ___ 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: upgrading squeezeboxserver

Does anyone else encountered this problem? How can I revert to the previous version of squeezeboxserver (I'm using Portmaster to upgrade my ports)? I had this problem and managed to work around it. I haven't had time to track it down enough to file a bug though. My fix was to downgrade p5-DBIx-Class to version 08120.

can't access FreeBSD boot CD data (but can boot just fine) using IP KVM fake drives
Most modern IP KVMs allow you to specify a ISO image, and they will feed it to the computer via USB and allow you to boot arbitrary cds. However, I notice problems in both standard FreeBSD install discs and FreeBSD-based live CDs, wherein the CD will boot and run just fine, but when it comes time to read data off of the CD, the running system cannot access it. So, for instance, I boot with my KVM attached and I see this in dmesg: ums0: Startech.com server remote control device_attach: ums0 attach returned 6 and the system continues booting, but then: [*] Extracting filesystems /dist/mountcd: Can't open /dist/mountcd: No such file or directory [*] Error Extracting Filesystems (this was with ROFreeSBIE) With the plain old FreeBSD disc 1, I can go all the way through the install, but I cannot choose CD/DVD as install media, I have to ue the FTP option ... somehow I can boot up and use the install CD, but I cannot read any data on it. ... so my question is: What flags/options/whatever can I feed the booting CD, in the loader, to tell it just keep using that same old USB CD ?

dumping a raid member with 'dd' for insurance...
A 3ware raid5 array I had died. It looks like the data is intact, and there are two good recovery methods: 1) a toolchain from 3ware that, if it doesn't work, will destroy the data. This method is free, and I can do it myself. 2) professional forensic services. Costs a lot. I'm going to start with #1, but before I do I want to image the individual drive members so that I can go to method #2 if necessary. I am planning on attaching each individual member of the raid5 array to a test FreeBSD system, and run: dd if=/dev/ad1 of=/data/disk/image.file Two questions: - is that a complete 'dd' command, or do I need to specify bs=xxx and count=xxx ? - is there any chance that simply booting with this drive attached to the system, and running a 'dd' like this, will somehow alter the contents or touch the array member in any way ? What I have described above appears to be a completely read-only process, but I'd like to make sure there aren't ANY bits that FreeBSD will write to this disk ...

I was hoping to either boot them over a network or using a CF card or something with a small footprint as well. WYSE. Do a search on eBay for either network terminal or thin client and and you'll probably find the same model you saw in the library. I went checking out Soekris but couldn't really see if they offer a GUI, the models I looked at didn't have a VGA port though. I was hoping for something about 9 inches square and three inches thick, or smaller. The lack of video on Soekris boxes is deliberate, and is considered a feature. Sounds to me like you probably want either a Mac Mini or a mini-ITX system.

After adding the alias, logging out and then back in, I get an error

I'm sure someone more knowledgable about csh (I rely on bash) can help
you debug what exactly happens and why, but quoting your alias command
in .cshrc is all that's required.
I thought that perhaps the file wasn't being read upon login, so I
appended a new alias underneath:
Easier to check your aliases by typing 'alias', no?
alias srm find . -name *~ | xargs rm
alias sll ls -lA
...which works fine when called after re-login.
I even went as far as to prefix the find/xargs command with full paths,
to no avail.
Is this a problem with the pipe in the alias directive? The command
works on the CLI, as I literally copy/pasted it into the .cshrc file.
Again, quoting what's being aliased will suffice. Why that's not
necessary during interactive use, I don't know, but I'd get into the
habit of quoting such things regardless.

Re: PF binat rule issue - feature or bug?

Using 7.2-RELEASE-p4 i386 with GENERIC kernel, I've found (the hard way)
that if I have a pf.conf rule like
nat on $ext_if proto { tcp udp icmp } from $my_subnet \

then pfctl will perform the expected expansion of the listed protocols
into three separate NAT rules.
However, if I have a rule like
binat on $ext_if proto { tcp udp icmp } from $server_dmz_ip \
to any - $server_public_ip
then I will /only/ get one NAT rule, for TCP.
Then things like NTP, DNS and ping will fail, but the filtering rules
that permit such traffic will increment their byte, packet and state
counters like PF is working just fine (and I suppose in some sense that
the filtering part is). But only if I explicitly declare in pf.conf a
separate binat rule for each desired protocol, instead of listing them,
will things work as needed.
Feature or bug? If the former, it is not well documented that I could
see. I expected that a list of protocols for a binat rule would just
work, and pfctl certainly didn't mark it as bad syntax. If a bug, is
this a FreeBSD bug or OpenBSD?
The BNF grammar in pfconf(5) suggests that binat rules don't take a
list. Summarised:
nat-rule = ... proto ( proto-name | proto-number | { proto-list } )
binat-rule = ... proto ( proto-name | proto-number )

Re: Mount dump0 as ISO9660 filesystem?

I took my dump in the following fashion: dump -0Lan -C 16 -f - /usr | gzip -2 | ssh-to-some-remote-location So, I have a file named dump0-var.gz. Your dump is just a regular file sitting on a hard drive with a file system that's already mounted. If you created an on-disk ISO image of that file, you'd have to mount the file system of that ISO image to read the file. If you burned the ISO image to a CD, you'd mount the CD's file system to read it. Either way, the file remains just a file, and is read using restore(8). I'll offer a guess that you're confusing things with tar(1) (which is often used for backups) and the recent changes. From the manpage: This implementation can extract from tar, pax, cpio, zip, jar, ar, and ISO 9660 cdrom images and can create tar, pax, cpio, ar, and shar archives. The above means you can now do nifty things like 'tar xvf mybackup.iso', and if you've configured a pre-processor for less(1), even niftier things like: less backup.tar.gz less backup.zip less backup.iso It's also possible you might be thinking of file system snapshots (which can be mounted).

I was wondering what controls this, meaning if I get an IP or a hostname, and why it's being truncated. If 'touch ~/.hushlogin' isn't what you're after, consider modifying sshd_flags in /etc/rc.conf. From sshd(8): -u len This option is used to specify the size of the field in the utmp structure that holds the remote host name. If the resolved host name is longer than len, the dotted decimal value will be used instead. This allows hosts with very long host names that over- flow this field to still be uniquely identified. Specifying -u0 indicates that only dotted decimal addresses should be put into the utmp file. -u0 may also be used to prevent sshd from making DNS requests unless the authentication mechanism or configuration requires it. Authentication mechanisms that may require DNS include RhostsRSAAuthentication, HostbasedAuthentication, and using a from=pattern-list option in a key file. Configuration options that require DNS include using a u...@host pattern in AllowUsers or DenyUsers. I count 'daffy.nerius.co' as 15. -- George ___ 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

What exactly do I need to do to upgrade them to 8.0? (I'm not asking for an upgrade procedure, I'm familiar with that, but rather, how this change impacts the upgrade.) I think that the suggestion that the disks need to be reformatted is extreme and I hope something less extreme will suffice. Just to point out the obvious, you shouldn't use dangerous and production in the same sentence. :) Fun with ambiguities aside, I think it's fair and reasonable to interpret dedicated as dedicated to FreeBSD, and dangerous as may not work with common third-party disk tools or an older BIOS. It's similarly fair to interpret any caveat, implicit or otherwise, against using dangerously dedicated mode as a general recommendation aimed at new users (typically in dual or multi-boot environments), and not a statement that dangerously dedicated mode is unsuitable for production environments. It certainly doesn't state or suggest that it's a convenient but deprecated feature that might be removed without notice or warning in the future. Which is what's happened. In that light, the statement in the release notes merits a fuller description as well as an explanation for the change. Also, just to be clear, does this statement refer to boot disks, data disks, or both? It doesn't make sense to me that dangerously dedicated could have an impact on UFS filesystems specifically. A partition table is just a partition table, regardless of what filesystems might be written on disks, yes? Am I misunderstanding something here? I don't know why it would have an affect, but they say it does. Did you see all the mailing list chatter about new installations failing due to sysinstall not being able to newfs device names that didn't exist? This is related. Also, a partition table isn't just a partition table. It's a little more complex than that. It has *nothing* to do with the filesystems inside. It has everything to do with the way that FreeBSD looks at the drive to figure out what's on it. See man pages for geom/gpart. There are others that have given a better explanation than I can provide (marcus, juli). Search the archives. FreeBSD is known for, among other things, the consistent quality of its documentation. As it stands, the statement dangerously dedicated mode for the UFS file system is no longer supported in the release notes stands in direct contradiction to the official Handbook (updated to include 8.0-RELEASE) Section 18.3.2.2 which states you may use the dedicated mode. A suggestion to search the (multiple) archives for chatter suggests that authoritative information can now be found on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying Beware of the Leopard. Perhaps you could provide something more specific, or a direct link to the chatter? Trust me, I didn't remove DD support from sysinstall just to make life more complicated for everyone. I did this because as it stands right now, it doesn't work. Regrettably, the end result is the same. That's not to say we wouldn't grumble and then happily settle for something less. Provided that something amounted to more than no longer supported because it doesn't work. -- George ___ 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

(ie. snapshotting only makes sense on a mounted read-write filesystem). Actually, the above isn't correct. A device special is fine. From the dump(8) manpage: The file system to be dumped is specified by the argument filesystem as either its device-special file or its mount point (if that is in a standard entry in /etc/fstab). The criteria unique to live dumps is that /dev/ad0s2d must be already mounted, and there must be a .snap directory in its root. You've since changed your command, so I won't address what the problem might have been. Also, if you're dumping a snapshotted FS to a local file, then bump up the cachesize to improve performance a lot. Add '-C 32' to your command-line. Ok. I've tested this dump -1 -a -u -L -C 64 -h 0 -f /usr/home/bernt/disk2/dump.backup.home.2 /usr/home Was the change from 'dump -0' to 'dump -1' intentional?

The error is mksnap_ffs: Cannot create /usr/home/.snap/dump_snapshot: Invalid argument dump: Cannot create /usr/home/.snap/dump_snapshot: No such file or directory You've now specified what's likely a directory (/usr/home), not a device-special or mount point.

On a typical install those two columns might be: Filesystem Mounted on /dev/ad0s1a / devfs /dev # ignore this line /dev/ad0s1e /tmp /dev/ad0s1f /usr /dev/ad0s1d /var Pick one. I prefer device names. FWIW, if you're going to be using dump regularly (i.e. multiple dump levels and/or multiple hosts) and dumping to files, I'd suggest a naming convention of hostname-20090405-usr-0 to save you the grief of date fragility, and give you a meaningful display in 'ls -l' when restoring.

How can I rescue my passwd file after corrupting it (and why does it still work) ?
I do some automated account creation on a FreeBSD 6.x system ... and unbeknownst to me, the '/' filesystem was completely full when I did my last account creation, resulting in: /: write failed, filesystem is full pwd_mkdb: /etc/pwd.db to /etc/pwd.db.tmp: No space left on device pw: passwd file update: No space left on device pwd_mkdb: corrupted entry pwd_mkdb: at line #187 pwd_mkdb: /mnt/etc/master.passwd: Inappropriate file type or format My situation is now as follows: passwd and master.passwd have a lot of lines missing, and one or two mangled lines toward the end. So a LOT of user accounts are gone. BUT, all of those missing accounts still work. So ... 1) why do all of the accounts that are missing from both passwd and master.passwd continue to work properly (they can authenticate and log in over SSH and so on) ? 2) how can I get back to healthy ?

But with this config file, XFCE4 launch is OK (or seems OK). That may be possible, as well as correct. I have learned - many many years ago, so it may already have changed - that .xinitrc is a SHELL SCRIPT that is executed on X startup. So all the rules for shell scripts do apply, such as declaring the interpreter with the #! special comment. Furthermore, .xinitrc serves as a kind of init process, so that the exec statement is needed to replace the .xinitrc process by the window manager. That's always been my understanding, but if you examine the startx script, you'll see otherwise. From xinit(1): If no specific client program is given on the command line, xinit will look for a file in the user's home directory called .xinitrc to run as a shell script to start up client programs ... ^ The interpretation being that .xinitrc can be an ordinary file, but should be written to follow certain syntax rules (not unlike /etc/rc.conf). An example to illustrate: $ echo 'var=Hello World; echo $var' filename $ sh filename Hello World Put simply, .xinitrc does not need a shebang line, and does not need to be executable.

How do I replace the built-in OpenSSL with a source tarball ?
I would like to: - upgrade the built-in OpenSSL that comes with FreeBSD (in my case, 6.4-RELEASE) - replace it with OpenSSL that I build myself from the source tarball If I do this with a plain old: ./config ; make ; make install OpenSSL does indeed build and install, but it installs in an alternate location and does not overwrite the FreeBSD built-in. Ok, should be easy to fix - I will simply use an: --prefix config directive and point it to /usr: --prefix=/usr However, that does not work - running: /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl version shows me that this binary has not changed. Ok, no problem, I will simply use: --prefix=/usr/local instead ... but that also does not work. No matter what I do, I cannot get the OpenSSL source tarball to overwrite my built-in OpenSSL in FreeBSD - I always end up having two binaries in two different locations.
