Re: single SATA disk and yet identified as 'ad4'

2009-05-11 Thread Stefan Lambrev

You may want to become familiar with:

#
# The following options are valid on the ATA driver:
#
# ATA_STATIC_ID:controller numbering is static ie depends on  
location
#   else the device numbers are dynamically  
allocated.


options ATA_STATIC_ID

Long time ago FreeBSD people decided that it's very annoying when you  
plug ata CD or another HDD
and then your ad1 (which is ad4) becomes ad2, and makes your OS un- 
bootable without manual intervention.


Today we have geom labels, but still ATA_STATIC_ID is something I  
really miss on every linux ..


P.S. -current removed.

Hi all:

The system has just one SATA disk and yet bootloader process
identified it as 'ad4'. Ideally, it should be ad1.

Hi list,

I have server running postfix + courier-imap, and I'm looking for 
someway to add possibility to exchange calendars/contacts/meeting 
invitations/etc between mail clients.


Can someone recommend calendar, that is compatible with windows clients 
and can be run under FreeBSD?



% cat /usr/ports/deskutils/sunbird/pkg-descr
The Sunbird Project is a redesign of the Mozilla Calendar component. The goal
is to produce a cross platform standalone calendar application based on
Mozilla's XUL user interface language.

WWW:http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird.html

I like it :) 
But I'm not sure if you can exchange your inputs with other clients.


  
I think you can exchange mozilla's (sunbird/lightning) calendar using MS 
exchange, zimbra and few other apps, but all that I found are not 
working under freebsd.
And this is what I'm looking for - server that support iCal and will 
allow mail clients (outlook, evolution & sunbird/lighnting) to exchange 
their calendars.

Re: i am facing these issues after my FreeBSD 6.2 installation.

2007-03-13 Thread Stefan Lambrev

Hi,

This mail have to be in  questions not hackers, but anyway ..

Hi,

I've recently installed FreeBSD release 6.2 successfully except that the
following things that i need importantly dont work. How should i do 
these?


1. I am using PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE). I am running FreeBSD on 
Vmware and

i set the network connection as "Bridged" on Vmware. I configured my
Ethernet device with the correct IP, Gateway, Netmask, DNS but i dont 
know
how to start my internet on FreeBSD. All i do to connect to the 
internet on
Windows is give my username and password. I also read the PPPoE 
chapter on

the FreeBSD manual but of no use. How should i start PPoE on FreeBSD?

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/pppoe.html, but better look for "mpd"


2. I need Vim. I dont want to use Vi. I searched in my CD-1 and CD-2. 
But i
could not find the package "vim" inside it. Since i am not able to 
connect

to the internet is there any other way to install Vim ?
well if you do not have the source or the packages .. you have to find a 
way to download it :)


3. How should i configure FreeBSD to start in X mode directly. 
Currently i

have to do startx to start X on my machine.

take a look at xdm, kdm and gdm :)


4. I want to make "bash" as the default shell instead of "csh". Where is
that configured?

man vipw


5. Where are the kernel sources located? I need it because i want to do
kernel network programming? Is having kernel sources sufficient or 
there are

other dependencies also?
src/sys are kernel sources. Where depends on your installation (normally 
/usr/src/sys/)


6. How do developers usually keep their kernel sources in sync with 
the main

Central Kernel source? Do we use CVS or Subversion for this?
if you are using freebsd 6.2 - man csup  


But best place to start is reading http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/
and once you are familiar with FreeBSD you can read "developers handbook".


Thanks & Regards,
Ajay.
