 List,
 
 Please ignore my previous mail  with the same subject line because there was 
 a terrible formatting  mistake.
 Please see the attached pdf  which briefs the problem in assigning the IP 
 address to the netbsd virtual machine.
 The Xen VM is running on Debian/ GNU Linux.

I am assuming you are trying to get a bridge setup working. What is the bridge 
configuration in dom0?

On a separate note, your email still is not proper. Learn to put contents in an 
email rather describing your problem in a PDF.

Thanks

 Another thing that doesn't work is rebuilding firefox from the ground up
 with portupgrade -fR firefox.

Where does it burp? Can you post, say, the last 10-15 lines of the compile?


 
 Can you post the contents of about:config and also try to launch FF from
 command line and see if there is anything interesting reported back? Also, I 
 hope you do not have any funky CFLAGS set in your make.conf?
 
 Of course firefox will not run from the command line (Error: no display
 specified), but there are no messages as firefox fails repeated to load
 twitter pages fully when firefox is launched in an xterm.

Sorry for the ambiguity, I indeed meant to launch FF from xterm (or some 
equivalent Terminal Emulator in X) and report back the error. But since you say 
there is no problem with that, guess things should be good.

 
 make.conf:
 
 QT4_OPTIONS=  CUPS
 WITH_GCC = yes
 # added by use.perl 2012-07-03 02:17:12
 PERL_VERSION=5.16.0

This looks pretty generic, so nothing to complain about.

 
 
 I hate GUIs, so my mouse-fu skills are not good enough to copy about.config,
 but here is a save as

snip

Okay, try this out. Go to preferences and disable hardware acceleration. Also 
go to about:config and search for gfx. Set the property 
gfx.direct2d.disabled to true. Bounce the browser and go to about:support. 
At the bottom of the page, GPU Accelerated Windows should read 0/1. See if 
that makes a difference.

Let us for a minute assume that there is nothing wrong with FF. How about 
installing Firebug and see in the Net tab that what precisely is happening 
when you load the Twitter main page? Is it waiting for apparently no reason at 
a particular place? Also, not strictly required, but can you also pass the 
traffic through something like LiveHTTPHeaders and post a traffic dump? As a 
third step, run a pcap session and see what is happening on the wire/air ?


 
 Adapter Description
   GLXtest process failed (exited with status 1): GLX version older /
 than the required 1.3
 
 WebGL Renderer:
   Blocked for your graphics card because of unresolved driver issues.
 
 GPU Accelerated Windows: 0. Blocked for your graphics driver version. /
   Try updating your graphics driver to version /
   Anything with EXT_texture_from_pixmap support or newer.

This probably means that none of the advanced rendering stuff work on your X 
setup.

 
 The only drivers that work with this machine (Intel G33) are intel and vesa.
 The intel driver does occasionally freeze X entirely requiring a boot, but
 this is not what happens when trying to load twitter pages.

This is a completely distinct problem but probably it would be interesting to 
try and figure out why Graphics Acceleration is not working. I have very 
limited experience with Intel Graphics chipsets. In the i915 days, there used 
to be something called AIGLX which required some explicit configuration in 
xorg.conf. Could you check on that?

Thanks

 True it must, but I have no idea why if_en would try to be loaded or even how

 you would have to have an interface that requires the en driver.  pciconf

How about a verbose boot and a list of your boot messages? Also, how about you 
create a kernel with ATM missing and see what stops working?

 No change.
 I removed /etc/X11/xorg.conf completely.
 
 Anyway, I can understand my X setup is fucked, no problem.

Okay. That is kind of odd. But I am assuming you figured out what the precise 
problem is.

 
 What worries me more is the the fact that a process ignores
 kill -9. Doesn't it indicate a problem with the OS?
 I think potentially this is a security vulnerability.

No not really. There are instances when a process can ignore SIGKILL or kill -9 
as colloquially stated. For example, when a process in in the state of an 
uninterruptible sleep, marked as D in the top output, it will ignore all 
signals. Similarly for processes which are zombies, showing up as Z in the top 
output, will ignore the SIGKILL as well.

Ideally, if you think you are hitting on a case where the process is not an 
uninterruptible state and still refuses to listen to SIGKILL, you should attach 
a strace or dtrace session to the process and see what is going on.

It looks like the port is lagging back from mainstream. You could also write to

 portsnap needs roughly one file per port plus one for each

 In FreeBSD 9 the fragment size increased, halving the default number of
 inodes. With only 32k inodes it's possible to run out with portsnap
 alone. You can probably get away with the old default of 64k (-i
 8192), or perhaps 128k (-i 4096). Check how many files you have outside
 of portsnap and do the arithmetic.
 
 
 Or, move the portsnap tree to somewhere other than /var
 (see /etc/portsnap.conf for that  such).
 I think that a file-backed md* mounted only when portsnap
 was in use would save on inodes, yeah?

Actually I think that is a very good idea. That is how I have set up my system 
as well with one difference. I have tons of memory and use a memory based 
filesystem to store all the in-compile objects.

You seem to be new to FreeBSD. In that case , I would recommend you to read the 
Handbook. It is very very good documentation.

Yes, FreeBSD can run off a single filesystem.

 
 and second question is my mysql is in /var slice if /var is not mout can I
 access mysql being root and chek all databases also can read log file on
 /var

If /var is on  separate filesystem, then there is no way you can access 
anything inside /var without mounting /var first.

 
 third question is can I mount any unmount slice by using just fsck  :)

fsck is a utility which is used to check filesystem for consistency. For 
mounting a filesystem you should be using /sbin/mount and for unmounting you 
should use /sbin/unmount.

Re: Best RAID setup

 I'm getting ready to setup a new FreeBSD 8.1 64 bit server and wanted to

If you need to select between software and hardware RAID, then by all means go 
for hardware RAID. RAID 10 is always faster than RAID5 and the difference 
really stands out when writing data.

 I currently have a 3Ware card in one of my servers
 and it works great, but I haven't really been keeping up on what the latest
 RAID support is.


All RAID cards (that I have come across) support both RAID 10 and RAID5. So 
there is a fair chance that your card will not disappoint you.
 How is the ZFS support these days? Is it production ready?

ZFS is fine. I use it on my prod boxes and so far there have been no issues.

 What about hardware RAID, is there a compatibility list somewhere with what
 hardware (or pseudo hardware) RAID controllers are supported? 

Didn't get this question though.

 
 
 
 I'm just looking for the most stable, and production ready RAID that can
 handle at least 1 TB disks and create volumes in the 3-4 TB range. Any
 thoughts, feedback, caveats, etc. are welcomed.

You need to RTFM.

 if you haven't activated the 'toor' account (another UID 0 account besides
 root), you'll have to boot from fixit media (or another live cd / system) and
 go from there.

I think that would be an overkill. From the su(1) manpage, 

 -m  Leave the environment unmodified.  The invoked shell is your
 login shell, and no directory changes are made.  As a security
 precaution, if the target user's shell is a non-standard shell
 (as defined by getusershell(3)) and the caller's real uid is non-
 zero, su will fail.


So, you could use su -m to switch to root and remain in the same shell as your 
user calling su. Once there, AFAIK, you could use vipw(8) or chsh(1) to change 
the root shell back to csh.

Re: FreeBSD support for HP DL180/G5

2008-10-09 Thread Subhro
HP produces pretty good boxes and historically I have been able to get them
working without any troubles. However I would say DL180 is a pretty non
customizable box. The hardware works perfectly with FreeBSD 7.0. I didnt try
it with 6.3, so cant comment on that.

However I would say DL380 is a better off. The main advantage of DL3xx boxes
are there is a lot of room to play with add-on cards. Also not all the
latest and greatest processors are available with DL1xx family of servers.

Also make sure that you go for an external RAID controller like 3ware or
Areca. I prefer Areca more :-D. The HP RAID controller cant take the beating
I give to it.

Re: Network, routers, DHCP and PXE

2008-07-28 Thread Subhro
Just to add to that suggestion, if you have a separate DHCP server,
make sure your router works as a DHCP client for the internal network
as well. You should be able to do that by telnetting into the
management port. You may use a serial cable as well.

This is required in order to get the NAT working properly.

 Hi, list!


 I have a private home network, on an ADSL2+ connection to the
 internet. The home network is behind NAT, all automatically set up
 by the router/dhcp server/wlan access point/adsl modem that I got
 from my ISP. It's a Thomson SpeedTouch 585 router.

 Now, on this network, most of the computers get their IP by means of
 DHCP. Except our home audio server, which have a hard coded ip
 address in rc.conf, set to something within the range of the dhcp
 server (10.0.0.2-10.0.0.253). The server seems to pick this up, and
 don't give that address away to someone else.


 You may also want to ensure that the router will never allocate your static
 IP address to someone else.
 Look at the DHCP router settings either for DHCP scope (set it to narrower
 values, and use a static IP outside the range) or for something like
 exceptions / exclusion where you can mark a specific IP that DHCP will never
 assign.

 I've tried using other addresses outside this range, like 10.0.1.1,
 but that doesn't work. All network access is lost when I do that.


 10.0.1.1 is a different network (I assume your netmask is 255.255.255.0, but
 check your router or your clients)

 Now, on my local network I'd like to put a diskless machine. As I
 understand it, my DHCP server needs to tell the client about the
 filename and a next-server to use. I don't think I can setup the
 Thomson router to do this. All the instruction I can find online
 advises me to install a DHCP server on the same machine that serves
 the pxe boot image. But if I do that, I'll get two DHCP servers on
 my local network. Is that ok? Will there be a race condition, when a
 client asks for an IP address?


 You will have to shutdown the router's DHCP. Probably disable it permanently
 and assign this function to a machine.
 The DHCP of the router also sends you the following information (besides IP
 address):

 - DNS Server(s): Either the ones used by your ISP (consult its website) or
 its own address (i.e. 10.0.0.1). Most routers send their own address as a
 DNS server and perform the resolution by sending your request to ISP
 servers.
 - Gateway address: This is always the router's local IP address (i.e.
 10.0.0.1)

 If you setup your own DHCP server, make sure it is set to send this info as
 well. (These are commonly known as DHCP options)

 Hello,

 I am facing a strange problem on my systems. I am running
 FreeBSD-6.2-RELEASE-p12. My network interface uses the em driver. I am
 facing a lot of issues where the NFS connections are dying randomly.
 Is there any known bug with the em driver? I am using the SCHED_ULE
 scheduler.

 Thanks

Release Build

2008-04-10 Thread Subhro
Hello everyone,

I am trying to create a customized release build. The idea is to have
a NFS export which can be used during installation over the network.
My build box is running the same version of BSD(6.2) as the NFS export
I intend to create. So instead of mirroring the cvs repository
(bandwidth woes :-S) I am using /usr/src.

I have built the release using


make release CHROOTDIR=/tmp/release BUILDNAME=FreeBSD-custom-6.2
EXTSRCDIR=/usr/src EXTPORTSDIR=/usr/ports WORLD_FLAGS='-j16
-march=prescott' KERNEL_FLAGS='-j16 -march=prescott' -DNOPORTS -DNODOC
RELEASETAG=RELENG_6_2

This had completed successfully with my newly built release in
/tmp/release/R/. The next thing I did was to export the disc1 folder
inside cdrom over NFS and try to boot over the network. I have checked
that my netboot works using a CDROM as a NFS export. This time it
locks up with Extracting packages.

Any clues about where I should start looking??

Thanks
Subhro

Re: Local package mirror

2008-04-05 Thread Subhro
Hello Lowell,

Thank you so much for the reply. I am trying to do the build once and
use prebuilt packages for the target boxes. However the problem I am
facing is a bit crude.

Lets assume I am trying to build pkgA which has dependencies of pkgB
and pkgC. The process I am following is

cd /usr/ports/xxx/pkgA ; make package. This makes the prebuilt package
in /usr/ports/ packages. However it does not case about pkgB which is
a dependency.

On a target system when I am trying to pkg_add it, it is rightly
complaining about a missing dependency and also saying that it cant
find the package in the local repository and aborting.

How can this be taken care of?

Thanks
Subhro

 There are a number of ways to do this general sort of thing.  For the
 base system approach, with pkg_add(1), setting PACKAGEROOT (or
 possibly PACKAGESITE depending on exactly how you configure the server
 for network fetch, or PKG_PATH if the clients have the NFS directory
 mounted) should be good enough.

 On the other hand, the way I do it is to have a master server, where I
 build everything (or fetch everything, if I don't want to build it
 myself).  Then the other machines mount /usr/ports from the master
 server.  I use portupgrade to do the installs from the clients, which
 knows how to use packages when available locally and only fetch them
 if they aren't.

 I hope this helps.

 Hi ;
 
 A general question pls excuse me
 
 can any body suggest a backup mechanism for a server machine , which has
 a web portal , email server ,PgSQL database 4GB size , DNS server,
 Mailman , and a mediawiki applications running in a single machine .
 
 Can you suggest good solutions , for the server Backup mechanismso
 that I can restore all the data just before the crashing moment .
 
 pls share your expertise , it will help me lot  to secure my data in the
 server machine ..

If you wish to have 0 downtime then the only option is a separate
failover server. However much you try, if you do not have a separate box
 to failover to, it is not possible to do a 0 downtime switchover.

Regarding the backup solution, you can either buy an external Hard Disk
and back up to it. Alternatively you can back up to tape drives or to
NFS mounted volumes.

Thanks

You can try to create a Mirror using RAID. You can either create a

 Hi , subhro,
 
 i agree with you ,  I need a clarification
 
 The backup should be the uptodate one , so in case of a disk crash
 (permanent crash) I need the backup upto the last moment , so is ther
 any cheap tools , to do it , so i can save the backups to another
 desktop pc  synchronously (I mean any mechanism for backup through
 online ie ; ssh  OR VPN or like that )  (not manual backing up at each
 moment) can you tell the exact solution .
 
 If  I am using rsync , I can only do it by a crontab , even though at a
 specfic time only the cron run , if crash occurs after this time then
 the data after the cron will lose  , so which is the right  cheaper
 solution ?

Flash Plugin not working

2006-10-15 Thread Subhro

Hello,

I am running FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE on i386 hardware. I have installed
linux-firefox and linux-flashplugin from the ports collection. The
same is iterated by pkg_info.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pkg_info | grep flash
linux-flashplugin-7.0r68 Adobe Flash Player NPAPI Plugin
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ linux-firefox
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ pkg_info | grep firefox
firefox-1.5.0.7,1   Web browser based on the browser portion of Mozilla
linux-firefox-1.5.0.7 Web browser based on the browser portion of Mozilla

However when I am trying to open any sites from linux-firefox, the
embedded flash applications are not displayed. Also the browser
complains about missing plugin.

I have checked the installed plugins by typing about:plugins. But
there is no flash plugin displayed there either.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks and Best Regards

load balancing nat

2006-09-04 Thread Subhro

Hello folks,

I have a strange problem on hand. I have got two internal LANs and one
ISP link. I am trying to share the link between the two internal LANs
and do a load balancing between the two. The rules I am using are:

nat on $ext_if from { $int1_if:network, $int2_if:network } to any -
$ext_if round-robin

where $int1_if, $int2_if are two internal interfaces and $ext_if is
the external interface.

However my observation is systems using $int_2 as gateway loose
connectivity randomly. Also the TTL values for the pings to the
gateway change to 150 from 64 as soon as the system looses
connectivity.

The systems in the LAN are all windows xp boxes.

Could anyone please tell me where I am going wrong?

Thanks and Best Regards
Subhro

As shown above, int1_if = 192.168.0.0/24 and int2_if = 10.0.0.0/24

Re: Newbie questions

2006-08-22 Thread Subhro

Hello,

Welcome to the world of FreeBSD. First of all, why are you trying to
install binaries? I would say it is wiser to use the port system
yourself. However remember to cvsup your ports tree before you start
using it to get the required software. Refer to the handbook for
understanding how ports work.

Thanks and Best Regards

 I am not entirely sure how fix this and any assistance is apreciated.

Boot over network

2006-08-21 Thread Subhro

Hello Folks,

I was just wondering if this can be done.

I would like to have a FreeBSD server which would supply a few 
workstations connected over the network a boot image. The catch is the 
boot image has to be a Ubuntu Linux image. I have a fresh installed 
FreeBSD box as well as a working Ubuntu box which boots locally. All the 
systems in question has network boot enabled NICs. Can the above setup 
be done? Any pointers would be welcome.

Re: What FreeBSD users really want

2006-07-22 Thread Subhro

Hello Sammy,

It is really nice that you have told us yourt insight on the matter. I
would also like to express my ideas. Please read my replies inline.

On 7/22/06, sammy sumer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:


Every Linux Distributor in the world is hard at work reinventing the
interface and making the Linux as user friendly as possible but we're still
dogged by turn of the century hassle with our FreeBSD.


This is not correct. The only distros which are working hard to get
the interface more friendly are thoes which has some kind of earning.
Just for example, if you check slackware, they still have a barebones
interface. Secondly FreeBSD community only looks after the base tree.
And as per my knowledge, the interface is something external.



 Here is what I would fix:

1.Reinvent the installer and interface.



This is not a bad idea. But again is that really worth the trouble.
The existing interface works perfectly. So why fix something which is
not broken. BTW, by reinventing if you mean to say that make the
installer go graphical, then there is a small problem. You are making
the installer more heavy which really has no value.



 2.Integrate a PHP shell into the core of the system.



This would be a very good idea if you have something call
FreeBSD-Web_Edition which is not the case. FreeBSD hosts all kinds of
services. Therefore the more things u put in stock OS, there would be
more points of failure. BTW why do you feel that the existing port
system is not adequate?


 PHP is by far the most popular computing language in the world. Why not
have a shell called PHP shell. So lots of web developers out there can
easily create shell scripts in PHP syntax to automate and run programs on
FreeBSD.


Perl is no less popular. Specially Perl had been around far longer
than PHP. But FBSD does not have perl in stock installations either.
Primarrily for the idea of Keep It Simple.



Who wants to learn bash or sh scripting? They are by far the least popular
and ugly programming language in the world.


It may be ugly, but its a really fast way to implement small
operations. And FYI, we system admins swear by shell scripts.



It is astounding that FreeBSD developers have not clued in to the fact that
millions of backend webmasters could easily migrate and adopt FreeBSD as
their O.S of their choice because of PHP.


Do you have this documented?



3.Content Management Website

Your current website looks very ordinary and doesn't make any impression for
anyone visiting your site for the first time.



Well we recently got the website look changed. Did you like the
earlier view? Would you please tell us what you mean by ordinary and
what kind of website would be more acceptable to people in generaly.
Please consider the fact that sometimes all you have is a text based
browser to refer to the handbook when you are stuck up in the middle
of an installation. So please provide your comments considering the
same.



Don't get me wrong, I love FreeBSD and I always remain loyal to it. I love
the unique port collection concept for third party application installation.



Of course not. The biggest asset of FreeBSD is its users. So as a user
you have full rights to express your insight.

Thanks and Best Regards
Subhro

show us a copy of dmesg and your kernel config file (if you are not

Hello, 

 


I have recently been thinking about adding content filtering to
my FreeBSD fire wall at home as the kids are starting to use the internet
more and they are getting older too ;-) 

 

 


I'm running FreeBSD 4.11 RELEASE using IPFW as my firewall. The system its
running on is an old alpha machine. I was wondering if anyone knew of a port
that I could use to filter some web content from my children. I do have the
X86 option as well Just have to reload the OS and start from scratch on
another system. 

 

Thanks

I'd look at squid+squidguard.  Both are opensource and available in ports.

  
How about dansguardian. Also set up a transparent proxy set up so that 
the kids cant get past the proxy settings :-D

No.  If you had it, I would recommend removing it before trying again.



Initially did not have epm. Even tried to compile *with* epm

Why is it that some applications like x11, ratpoison, and firefox come up
instantly while applications like xmms, emacs and thunderbird take about
five minutes to load? I've tried several things to try and fix this.


  - I've deinstalled packages to see if ports was any better and vice
  versa.
  - I've cleaned out /tmp, /var/tmp, and /var/lock and checked free
  space.
  - getting the vanilla sources from the origional FTP site and
  compiling them


Does the hostname for your system resolve? If not, either set it up or 
put proper entries in /etc/hosts

Re: Sluggish system

You can do a pkg_delete -a.
This will delete all the packages.

After that pkgdb -fF
This will rebuild the package database. However I dont think this is necessary.

then reinstall everything as required.

so forth.  So that's really the only part of the OS that actually needs some
serious work.

I also can't re-install the Base OS remotely...   Yes, I can make world to

Bluetooth not working

Re: The question that wont die: What size partitions should I make?

2005-12-04 Thread Subhro

wrangled sat at his 'puter and typed on 12/5/2005 0:10:


I have dual-boot laptop, 30GB Fat32 Win2000 and 70GB FreeBSD 6.0-R. I 
plan to use this for normal home desktop use (not as a server). I have 
512MB RAM.


According to this page:

  
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-steps.html 



I should use:

  / = 100MB
  /swap = 1GB
  /var = 50MB
 /usr = rest (68GB)

On past FreeBSD installs, I would occasionaly do things as root, and 
ran out of space in /root.  Since then, on desktop machines (with 
250GB drives), I would make / be 4GB.  On my lapatop, I wouldn't want 
to give up 4 of my 70 gigs if I didn't have to.  So I am looking for a 
realistic number that wont cramp me, and wont waste too much space.  I 
am planning on 1GB, so it will be big enough to hold the contents of a 
700MB CD ISO.
That is a VERY VERY BAD idea. It is not recommended to do ANYTHING as 
root which can be done as some other non privileged user.


I have no idea how much of /var I need, other than I like to install 
various packages to try them out, and I would not want to limit 
something like a webserver or email server if I chose to run one for 
limited use.  A friend took the default install suggestions for a 
machine he planned to do some web development on, and said his /var 
was way too small (they were new to FreeBSD also).  I am guessing 5GB 
for /var would allow me to run a mail-server (for personal use) and 
Apache+extensions for limited website developement
Generally the maximum space is eaten up by the logs and the databases 
(if any) hosted on the system.


A swap of 1GB is fine, I'm not sure I've ever actually used any swap 
on my machines that had more than 128MB.


Depends solely on the applications you are trying to run on the box.


I want /usr to be as big as possible (obviously), so my primary user 
account will have as much space as possible in /use/home/account.


Should I use:

  / = 1GB
  /swap = 1GB
  /var = 5GB
 /usr = rest (63GB)


This is my personal scheme for my desktop which hosts my personal 
website and a very very small database which is basically my phone 
directory and appointment schedules.


/ = 128M
swap=2G
/var = 2G
/var/tmp = 128M
/usr = rest.

/tmp is symlinked to /var/tmp.

Now my system specs:

Athlon 64Fx-55
1G DDR 400M RAM
3*160G SATA150 Western Digital in RAID 5
ASUS K8N-SLI DX motherboard.

Again, nothing is absolute. Your requirement would dictate your labeling 
scheme.


Thanks
S.

Hello Anirban,
What exactly do you want? You want a shell script to take tar backups of 
all the user directories or that of a particular user? I also do not 
understand why you are providing login information to your system. 
Thirdly that IP is a non routable IP address and is not accessible from 
outside. So that is of no use.


Thanks
S.

Re: Can't compile kernel

2005-11-22 Thread Subhro

Jose Borquez sat at his 'puter and typed on 11/23/2005 12:50:

 I made a standard install of FreeBSD 5.4  with Kern-Developer  Full binaries 
and doc, kernel source  only.  I attempted to compile a custom kernel running:
  make buildkernel KERNCONF=CUSTOM  Then I get the following error: make: don't 
know how to make buildkernel. Stop
  I run it from the /usr/src/ directory.  The /usr/src/ directory is  empty.  
Does that mean the source files were not installed?
  


Exactly. The kernel sources had not been installed. Read the chapter on
building a custom kernel in the handbook. make sure you cvsup properly
before you attempt to go for the compile.

Re: Low volume

2005-11-07 Thread Subhro

manish jain sat at his 'puter and typed on 11/8/2005 12:28:

Hi,
 
I am using FreeBSD 5.4 with an Intel 810 chipset which has an onboard soundcard. While everything else works fine, the sound volume is inexplicably low. I have set snd_ich_load to YES in loader.conf, which is probably all I am required to do. Even when I use Volume Control to set the PCM to maximum volume (with the 800 W speakers too set to maximum volume), sound is barely audible in multimedia applications like xmms and xine. What could possibly be wrong ?
 
Thanks for any help.

Re: Compile Kernel Question

2005-10-31 Thread Subhro

Lonnie Cumberland sat at his 'puter and typed on 11/1/2005 3:05:

Greetings All,

I am new to FreeBSD but have a lot of Linux experience so I think that 
the migration should not be too difficult.


The reason that I am investigating FreeBSD is because I hear that it 
performs GREAT under heavy loads and many larger ISP are using it 
without fail. In my experience, Linux, although a great OS, seems to 
bog down under heavy loading. I could be wrong though and it could 
have just been to misconfiguration on my part.


Well, I have a base installation of FreeBSD 4.11 which is needed for a 
particular project but now need to compile the kernel to support QUOTA's.


My question is how do I install the sources over the web so that I can 
compile the kernel to support quotas?


The FreeBSD docs tell a little, but mostly assume that you have the 
sources already on the system to compile which I do not have and need 
to download them.


If some one could please give me a little guidance then I would 
greatly appreciate it.


Thanks in advance,
Lonnie

You need to read the handbook. Read through the chapter describing the 
different trees of development. If you want to run the OS on a 
production box I would recommend stable. Current is only for developers. 
BTW, your mail client indents the replies incorrectly. I can see that 
you are using Microsoft Outlook 6.0. I would recommend get Thunderbird. 
It's a much better client alltogether.

Hello folks,

I am facing a problem in using the nvidia driver with Xorg. I have

the nvidia driver, it complains that no GPU was found and subsequently
it says that no usable Screens found. I am attaching the Xorg log

Help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Best Regards

Sounds like the card isn't being detected from what you're saying. Can 
you give us relevant X outputs (+/-5 lines from the issue, ie warning 
or error) where it states these problems?
Also, the device section for your card and the screen and layout 
sections from your xorg.conf file would be very helpful.

Thanks,

Re: Downgrading from amd64 to i386

2005-09-17 Thread Subhro

Andrew P. sat at his 'puter and typed on 9/18/2005 1:49:


Hello!

I use FreeBSD/amd64 6.0 as the only OS on my desktop
PC. Having carefully thought over pros and cons, I decided
to downgrade to i386 for the time being.
 

What on earth does this mean? This is simply not possible. amd64 is a 
completely different platform. i386 is a 32 bit platform and amd64 is a 
64 bit one. You can upgrade or downgrade from one version to other 
provided the platform remains constant. But upgrading from one patform 
to other involves buying and assembling physically different hardware 
holding different copies of OS.


Thanks

Hi,
 


Hello :-),


  I am trying to migrate my mail servers from Fedora
core 3 to FreeBSD 5.4, due to performance issue. 


Cool! Go for it :-)


1)Which is the suitable filesystem ie UFS2, Ext2
etc...
for mailing server. I used raiserfs in linux.  Which
File System's are supported in FreeBSD 5.4 and which
is stable for mailing system.  How do i enable them in
kernel.
 


The native filesystem for FreeBSD 5.x and above is UFS2 which performs
exceptionally well IMHO. Reiserfs also has support in FBSD although
readonly only. Just something off topic, did you have any reasons for
using ReiserFS in Linux and not use EXT2/3?


2)How to i find memory, cpu information in freebsd,
apart from TOP. In linux we have free and
/pro/cpuinfo.  I dont see any files under /proc
 


what information do you need that top does not provide? You can try
sysctl -a | more and analyse all the kernel runtime variables.


3) Is SMP support enabled in FreeBSD 5.4, or should I
recompile the kernel for the support(what kernel
arguments should I use).
 


No SMP by default is not there in the stock kernel. However you can boot
up your SMP box with the stock kernel and cimpile SMP support in it.
Refer to the handbook for the kernel parameters.
Also have a look at /usr/src/sys/arch/conf/GENERIC and
/usr/src/sys/arch/conf/NOTES for examples where arch is your
architecture (i386,amd64,etc)

Welcome to the world of FreeBSD.

Hey Subhro thanx for the info.  I used Reiserfs in
linux, bcos its reads and writes smaller files faster
like file size of 1-5 Mb, basically for mailing
solution.  I dont know where iam wrong.  


I have read regarding XFS, in freebsd any info ?.
So ok FreeBSD supports UFS1/2, dos, fat, fat32, ext2
reiserfs read only, ok cool...

So how do i enable Reiserfs in kernel, and do the
partion at install time...

http://people.freebsd.org/~rodrigc/xfs/index.html
 

XFS is supported in FBSD. For infomration regarding enabling various 
stuff in the kernel have a look at /usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES. BTW, your 
mail client incorrectly marks the replies. Why dont u use thunderbird? 
Its a really cool client IMHO. Also send a cc to

Re: Partial web page loading

Hey, I have the same problem over here, except that I can recreate the problem 
well easily and predictably.  I don't know a whole lot about computers but this 
is very weird.  Here's what happened:

I have a website that I'm working on in PHP.  I have a few pages that have text 
and image content and when I go to them, they either load completely or 
partially.  If it's only partially loaded, I can refresh the page a few times 
and then it will show the whole contents of the PHP file it's displaying.  At 
first I thought it had something to do with server caching, but then I found 
that when the web browser displays the whole page, I can refresh it a few times 
and it will display only a portion of the page; it cuts off right in the middle 
of some text.  Weird!  And I've looked at the HTML very carefully - everything 
is as it should be.  The browser cuts off at a seemingly arbitrary place in the 
HTML and does not even include the footer.inc file I included.  Very very 
strange.  Let me know if you get any kind of insight about the problem.  Thanks

Yeh Webmin is a tool. But you need lots of things to work right (for

On 6/21/2005 5:58, Lawrence Petrykanyn wrote:


Hi!
 


Hello :-),


   First, I tried to install OpenOffice using the ports collection.
The first attempt proceeded successfully for quite a while, but then failed
because it was unable to fetch certain files (no file found, access denied),
then subsequent attempts failed because it said that a lower version was
already installed.  

Before trying a second time, did you clean up the installation folders 
using 'make clean'?



So I did a pkg_delete which did not work because:
pkg_delete couldn't entirely delete package (perhaps the packing list is
incorrectly specified?).  


Didn't get you. What did you try to pkg_delete?


So I looked in /var/db/pkg but didn't see an
OpenOffice folder.
 

Entirely expected. OpenOffice installation was not registered as it was 
never completed.



   Knowing when to quit, I decided to install the package so I
downloaded OOo_1.1.3_FreeBSD410Intel410_install.tgz and did pkg_add -r
openoffice.

It is always a good idea to use prebuilt binaries compared to home made 
ones for two reasons. First of all if you dont have a very powerful 
system, it would be a hard time compiling something like KDE or 
OpenOffice which can very well take days before it finishes off. 
Secondly, it saves lot of bandwidth. That matters if you are not very 
rich and bandwidth is costly like it is for me. But the pros of using 
home made binaries are, you can use optimizations and make the binary 
hardware specific. This would give a BIG performance gain. Secondly 
there are a few features which needs to be enabled at compile time. In 
most of the cases this calls for using the ports.



 The attempt failed but I did manage to copy the output.  It was
over ten-thousand lines long, so I just excerpted it:


sympatico# pkg_add -r openoffice
Fetching, etc...

Did you have softupdates enabled on your system? Soft updates sometimes 
defer the release of file descriptors. And if you start using file 
descriptors too fast then you may run out of available descriptors thus 
getting this error in spite of the face that there is space on the platters.



   When I saw the filesystem is full message, I did a df:

sympatico#  df
Filesystem  1K-blocksUsedAvail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad1s1a253678  119824   11356051%
/devfs1   10   100%/dev
/dev/ad1s1e253678  16   233368 0%/tmp
/dev/ad1s1f  36221772 3195004 3012902810%/usr
/dev/ad1s1d253678  1597007368468%/var
/dev/ad0s19950544 7666112  228443277%/mnt
 

It really looks to me as if the soft updates is the culprit. May we have 
a look at 'mount' without the 's?


Thanks

Hi,

For some reason my machine keeps crashing almost every night at around
3:00am with the following test in the messages log file:

Jun 14 03:02:28 taco kernel: pid 7174 (sh), uid 0: exited on signal 11
(core dumped)

I tracked it down to cvsup. I run it every night at 3:00am, the
following is the log file that I make it create:

===update-os started by root on  at Mon Jun 13 03:01:00 2005===

TreeList failed: Error in

File is truncated.  Delete it and try again.

The following is the 'update-os' script I made:

echo ===update-os started by $USER on $HOST at `date +%c`=== 
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/log/update-os.log
#!/bin/sh
echo Updating OS sources with cvsup...
/usr/local/bin/cvsup /usr/local/etc/cvsup/supfile.os 
/usr/local/etc/cvsup/log/update-os.log

The supfile.os:

*default host=cvsup.ca.freebsd.org compress
*default release=cvs
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default prefix=/usr
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default tag=RELENG_5_3
src-all

I decided to rm the file
'/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/checkouts.cvs:RELENG_5_3' just to
see if that fixed it. And it did, but why was it crashing the entire
box?

I strongly feel that you need to check for BAD RAM modules.
