Re: Secure file transfers
I had a similar, perhaps related question. I'm making backups via tar to a SMB server, but I would rather use sftp/scp for it (the NAS supports both SMB and scp/sftp). I don't have enough disk space to make the backup to a tarchive and then scp that tarchive. Is there a way to make scp/sftp read from a pipe or stdin, rather than specific filenames?

umass stability 5.3 versus 4.10
I've written to the list several times in regards to my USB external hard drive. In summary: Under 4.10 it worked fine for 5 months and then mysteriously it quit working. The documentation I found for ehci+umass (albeit 3-year-old docs) implied that ehci was not completely stable, and its omission until 4.10 (and my own experience with it) makes me believe that. My question, though, is: Is ehci+umass considered production quality under 5.3? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - Easier than ever with enhanced search.

4.10, USB hard drive, weird problems
I have a problem with my external USB 2.0 hard drive. This drive had been working for several months, and then it quit.

Re: /usr/local/etc/rc.d vs /etc/rc.conf question
On my 4.10 box, there is a mysql-server script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d and nothing in /etc/rc.conf, yet mysql-server starts up a boot time. Why? (the following is true for 4.x) Check the /etc/defaults/rc.conf file You'll see in there that the default setting for local_startup is /usr/local/etc/rc.d /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d So (as someone else pointed out) if you don't want MySQL to start up, and its script is in one of those default directories, then you'll need to disable that script somehow.

Does anyone know of any packages, or have any scripts or other references, for doing this sort of thing? I guess the basic components would be: a network backup (scp as root?), and a script to ping the real server and change the rc.conf over to a second copy and reboot with the new one if the pings fail.

Re: Memory Question
Is there something I can do in order to optimize - which in this case paradoxically would seem to mean reduce the amount of free memory? The simple answer is: Use it! Exactly how depends on what you're running. Basically, check the docs for all the stuff your server is running and see what you can do to throw more memory at it. A lot of software has docs about performance tuning, and its memory usage (and performance) can usually be cranked up. If you're using a database server, check the DB's config file (postgresql.conf or my.cnf) and allocate a bunch of memory to buffers. If you're running Apache, you can increase the spare servers; if your Apache runs Perl CGI programs, you could consider using mod_perl. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

EHCI without UHCI?
Under 4.10, if I want USB2 but don't need USB1, can the ehci driver be used in the kernel without the uhci driver? What are uhci's dependencies? On a similar note, if I commented out some kernel option that was required by another kernel option, would the build process fail, or would it build a broken kernel? The reason I ask: I hafta run usbd with -f /dev/usb4 because my USB external harddrive insists on being detected on usb4 instead of usb0-3. The dmesg indicates that usb0-3 are uhci and usb4 is ehci, and it'd be nice to force then all ehci, since they are all USB2 ports. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - now with 250MB free storage.

4.10 USB problems
I've been using 4.10 and the EHCI driver, for an external hard drive, for several months and just recently a USB-related problem has started. When the drive is plugged in it is properly recognized by umass, etc. However, attempting to mount the drive results in /kernel: umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT being logged to dmesg, and mount: /dev/da0s1e: Device not configured Someone suggested that perhaps the problem is having both ehci and uhci in the kernel. This seemed unlikely, since they've both been there all along and it worked. But I was wondering about the need for both the UHCI driver and the EHCI driver. (see dmesg output below) On my system, the startup shows usb0 through usb3 as being uhci, and usb4 as uhci. I think it also shows usb0-3 being grabbed be EHCI, am I reading that right? Still, I have had to run usbd with -f /dev/usb4 for it to notice the hard drives when they're attached. FWIW, The usbd.conf is the standard-issue one. Is it possible that some USB ports are being grabbed by UHCI and some are being grabbed by EHCI? Would rebuilding the kernel without UHCI cause all of the ports to be EHCI? The ports and harddrives are all USB2 anyway, so USB1 compatibility is not necessary. uhci0: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-A port 0xff80-0xff9f irq 11 at device 29.0 on pci0 usb0: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-A on uhci0 usb0: USB revision 1.0 uhub0: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhci1: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-B port 0xff60-0xff7f irq 10 at device 29.1 on pci0 usb1: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-B on uhci1 usb1: USB revision 1.0 uhub1: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub1: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhci2: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-C port 0xff40-0xff5f irq 9 at device 29.2 on pci0 usb2: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-C on uhci2 usb2: USB revision 1.0 uhub2: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub2: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered uhci3: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-D port 0xff20-0xff3f irq 11 at device 29.3 on pci0 usb3: Intel 82801EB (ICH5) USB controller USB-D on uhci3 usb3: USB revision 1.0 uhub3: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub3: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered ehci0: EHCI (generic) USB 2.0 controller mem 0xffa80800-0xffa80bff irq 5 at device 29.7 on pci0 ehci_pci_attach: companion usb0 ehci_pci_attach: companion usb1 ehci_pci_attach: companion usb2 ehci_pci_attach: companion usb3 usb4: EHCI version 1.0 usb4: companion controllers, 2 ports each: usb0 usb1 usb2 usb3 usb4: EHCI (generic) USB 2.0 controller on ehci0 usb4: USB revision 2.0 uhub4: (0x8086) EHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub4: 8 ports with 8 removable, self powered __ Do you Yahoo!?

please educate me on memory usage
I was looking at my top output and was surprised to see that the bulk of my 512 MB of memory was in use, since the server really has fairly little running. It's not a problem, but I was wanting some clarification on where this memory was being used, for my own education. The original goal was that I had figured that a lot of memory would be unused since so little is running, and perhaps I could allocate some more to Postgres. Apparently nowt, but I don't quite understand all the intricacies of what *is* using my memory. 35 processes: 1 running, 34 sleeping CPU states: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.0% system, 0.0% interrupt, 100% idle Mem: 158M Active, 207M Inact, 80M Wired, 20M Cache, 60M Buf, 33M Free Swap: 2000M Total, 6848K Used, 1994M Free So, 158 MB of memory in use. Does that include anything other than process' memory, e.g. shared memory, kernel memory, some of the fs buffer? If I add up the VSZ column from 'ps aux' I get 110 MB. The server's only processes of interest are MySQL, Postgres, and Apache httpd. There are cron, sendmail, etc. but these are all 1M usage according to both top and ps. MySQL has VSZ 38 MB and RSS 4 MB. Postgres (incl stats collectors) has VSZ 25 MB and RSS 1 MB. There's also the shared memory: ipcs agrees with my postgresql.conf settings: 2 MB of shared memory buffers. Apache 1.3 has 15 processes, each using 3.6 MB VSZ and 1.5 MB RSS. I was of the impression that the bulk of this memory was shared with the parent process, no? So where's the rest of the memory going? The 80M Wired is interesting, since I don't know where it's going. I presume that PG's 2 MB of shared buffers are wired (though I saw an email today that implied otherwise), but how could I track down the rest of it? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
