Putting: define(`confTO_IDENT', `0')dnl in your .mc file will stop ident getting in your hair. This is allready defined also. The third possibility is that you've got quite a few milters set up there and sendmail simply needs a bit of time to run each message through all of them.

RE: Polling For 100 mbps Connections? (Was Re: Freebsd Theme Song)
, probably twice, polling is obviously less efficient at lower bandwidth. In interrupt driven mode, to get 5000 interrupts per second you are most likely going to be having a lot of traffic coming in, whereas you could get no traffic at all with polling mode in 5000 clock ticks. So clearly, the comparison is always stacked towards polling being only a competitor at high bandwidth. Why you insist on using scenarios as examples that are low bandwidth scenarios I cannot understand because nobody in this debate so far has claimed that polling is better at low bandwidth. I am as suspicious of testimonials as the next guy and it is quite true that so far everyone promoting polling in this thread has posted no test suites that are any better than yours - you basically are blowing air at each other. But there are a lot of others on the Internet that seem to think it works great. I gave you some openings to discredit them and you haven't taken them. I myself have never tried polling, so I am certainly not going to argue against a logical, reasoned explanation of why it's no good at high bandwidth. So far, however, you have not posted anything like this. And I am still waiting for the test suites you have used for your claim that the networking in 5.4 and later is worse, and I don't see why you want to diverge into this side issue on polling when the real issue is the alleged worse networking in the newer FreeBSD versions.

(Was Re: Freebsd Theme Song) Well, if polling does no good for fxp, due to the hardware doing controlled interrupts, then why does the fxp driver even let you set it as an option? And why have many people who have enabled it on fxp seen an improvement? They haven't, freebsd accounting doesn't work properly with polling enabled, and they don't have the ability to know if they are getting better performance, because they, like you, have no clue what they're doing. How about all the idiots running MP with FreeBSD 4.x, when we know its just a waste of time? they all think they're getting worthwhile performance, because they are clueless. I would call them idiots if they are running MP under FreeBSD and assuming that they are getting better performance without actually testing for it. But if they are just running MP because they happen to be using an MP server, and they want to see if it will work or not, who cares? Maybe its tunable because they guy who wrote the driver made it a tunable? duh. I've yet to see one credible, controlled test that shows polling vs properly tuned interrupt-driven. Hm, OK I believe that. As I recall I asked you earlier to post the test setup you used for your own tests proving that polling is worse, and you haven't done so yet. Now you are saying you have never seen a credible controlled test that shows polling vs interrupt-driven. So I guess either you were blind when you ran your own tests, or your own tests are not credible, controlled polling vs properly tuned interrupt-driven. As I have been saying all along. Now your agreeing with me. The only advantage of polling is that it will drop packets instead of going into livelock. The disadvantage is that it will drop packets when you have momentary bursts that would harmlessly put the machine into livelock. Thats about it. Ah, now I think suddenly I see what the chip on your shoulder is. You would rather have your router based on FreeBSD go into livelock while packets stack up, than drop anything. You tested the polling code and found that yipes, it drops packets. What may I ask do you think that a Cisco or other router does when you shove 10Mbt of traffic into it's Ethernet interface destined for a host behind a T1 that is plugged into the other end? (and no, source-quench is not the correct answer) I think the scenario of it being better to momentary go into livelock during an overload is only applicable to one scenario, where the 2 interfaces in the router are the same capacity. As in ethernet-to-ethernet routers. Most certainly not Ethernet-to-serial routers, like what most routers are that aren't on DSL lines. If you have a different understanding then please explain. I've read those datasheets as well and the thing I don't understand is that if you are pumping 100Mbt into an Etherexpress Pro/100 then if the card will not interrupt more than this throttled rate you keep talking about, then the card's interrupt throttling is going to limit the inbound bandwidth to below 100Mbt. Wrong again, Ted. It scares me that you consider yourself knowlegable about this. You can process # interrupts X ring_size packets; not one per interrupt. You're only polling 1000x per second (or whatever you have hz set to), so why do you think that you have to interrupt for every packet to do 100Mb/s? I never said anything about interrupting for every packet, did I? Of course not since I know what your talking about. However, it is you who are throwing around the numbers - or were in your prior post - regarding the fxp driver and hardware. Why should I have to do the work digging around in the datasheets and doing the math? Since you seem to be wanting to argue this from a theory standpoint, then your only option is to do the math. Go ahead, look up the datasheet for the 82557. I'm sure it's online somewhere, and tell us what it says about throttled interrupts, and run your numbers. Do you not understand that packet processing is the same whether its done on a clock tick or a hardware interrupt? Do you not understand that a clock tick has more overhead (because of other assigned tasks)? Do you not understand that getting exactly 5000 hardware interrupts is much more efficient than having 5000 clock tick interrupts per second? What part of this don't you understand? Well, one part I don't understand is why when one of those 5000 clock ticks happens and the fxp driver finds no packets to take off the card, that it takes the same amount of time for the driver to process
RE: Polling For 100 mbps Connections? (Was Re: Freebsd Theme Song)
I also use polling on my Intel Pro/100S and I get inscrease of almoast 100% in speed. OK, My machine is Celeron 433 with 256 MB RAM and it is used as router. With iperf between DMZ and LAN with polling enabled I reach speed of 90 Mbit and without polling I can get speed only about 58 Mbit. So for me polling is good and I'll keep on using it. -- Sasa Stupar ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The two main choices for rebuilding new ports are sysutils/ portupgrade and sysutils/portmanager. portupgrade is considered the default or standard tool, and it works quite well for most things, but has problems with KDE and GNOME in particular. portmanager uses a rather different approach to handling dependencies, which can require more compiler work, but it seems to handles updating KDE and GNOME better than portupgrade does. OK. I am trying to install portupgrade (I do not use X) from the ports but after I make install I get the following error: === db43-4.3.29 is already installed You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly. If you really wish to overwrite the old port of databases/db43 without deleting it first, set the variable FORCE_PKG_REGISTER in your environment or the make install command line. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/databases/db43. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/databases/ruby-bdb. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade. - Why is it complaining about db43?

FBSD 5.4 and old PC
Hi! I have an old Compaq Deskpro 2000 (P166) with 64M RAM and HDD 1.5G. I was thinking to make it as router with FBSD 5.4. Did anyone had any kind of problems with setup on that kind of machine? Regards, Sasa pgpyxZSX8QkjH.pgp Description: PGP signature
Speed question
Hi! I have on my LAN a server FBSD 5.4 on DMZ. The router is made of linux (yes I'll change it to FBSD ASAP) with 3 NIC: eth0 (inet), eth1 (LAN), eth2 (DMZ). Strange thing is that when server is on DMZ and I access it from the LAN with ftp client my transfer speed is 30 Mbit/s. The network itself is 100 Mbit. BUT if I move server from LAN to DMZ I have the max speed arround 100 Mbit/s. BTW: server in DMZ is connected directly to the NIC on router and on the LAN side I have all users connected on one switch which is connected to the router. Is this normall for all kinds of routers (linux, bsd, etc.) with setup like mine to behave like this or is it just my router setup? Regards, Sasa pgpvEkuFy7waX.pgp Description: PGP signature

No server can match the speed of a Cisco, and no Cisco can match the speed of a cheap unmanaged switch. If you mean that ftp client and ftp server are connected to different NICs on the router in both cases (30Mbit and 100Mbit transfers), it is explainable, because traffic from DMZ to LAN usually gets a closer look than that from LAN to LAN.

Can't get Mailman to work
Hi! I have installed Mailman 2.1.6 from the ports collection on FBSD 5.4. Now I have configured apache to have web access and it is working. I have even created a list and that worked too.

Try adding this group to your system, or re-run configure, providing an existing group name with the command line option --with-mail-gid. -- I have sendmail configured and running just fine. And the group mailnull DOES exist on my system. I have even tried to ciompile Mailman with different mail_gid but I get allways the same error.

I think you might be getting the BASE sendmail mixed up with the PORT sendmail. For max flexibility, there are TWO separate versions of sendmail available. Unless you know you need the version provided in the ports you should stick with the one provided in the base. Your sendmail-related make.conf syntax looks correct but what you need to do is rebuild the BASE sendmail with sasl support under /usr/src NOT /usr/ports. I suggest you remove/deinstall the sendmail version found under /usr/ports and do a full `make world` as recommended in the handbook. Others may be able to give you specific directions on rebuilding ONLY the base sendmail if a full make world is undesirable. cheers, G --- Reply --- But I have nothing under /usr/src.

Migration from FC4 to FreeBSD
Hi! Currently I have a running mail/web server under FC4. I have sendmail+cyrus2 configured. The question is: can I migrate easily to FreeBSD with only a backup of all mailboxes under /var/imap and /var/spool/imap and also the backup of /etc/shadow for all users?

Thank you all for the answers. Now I am going to play with a test machine. Regards, Sasa pgppUFjCP3DXe.pgp Description: PGP signature
