updating from 6.3 to 7, mirror problems
I have been trying to update my system remotely using freebsd-update.sh . I receive this error message; Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found. Fetching public key from update1.FreeBSD.org... failed. No mirrors remaining, giving up. I checked all the suggested solutions, my resolv.conf is pointing to my ISP's nameservers, I even tried pointing to other public name servers, but the same result.Changing "Server Name" to "update1.FreeBSD.org" did nothing either. What causes the failure to retrieve the key? Is there any other way of updating that does not involve downloading the iso files and burning to CD ? Thanks in advance.

Re: Unable to access certain sites from FreeBSD 6.2 (solved)
Hi Norberto,
It is solved but quite simply!
But through no skill of mine. Installed tcpmssd, man page said to re-configure
the kernel before diversion can be done.
So I added this to the GENERIC config file:
options IPFIREWALL
options IPDIVERT
options IPV6FIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options IPV6FIREWALL_VERBOSE
Verbose just for curiosity!!
Compiled as per handbook. Didn't even configure tcpmssd. Just thought I would
check to see if sites opened ok. They did, but don't know why. Would be great
to know. Unless they just shutdown the bodgy router for a Sunday rebuild.
Will post if situation reverts.
Your experience put me on the right track,thanks now happily I can use FreeBSD
as my main OS.
Regards,
Alasdair

Re: Unable to access certain sites from FreeBSD 6.2
Thanks Norberto,
Makes sense to do it the other way round. If I could indulge your generosity
and knowledge, one thing is puzzling me, why do I not have this problem when
I am running Win XP on the same machine (dual boot with FreeBSD) using all
the same hardware. Or when running NetBSD on my desktop machine but with
the same network. Seems strange that FreeBSD, which generally works really
well out of the box, cannot 'just deal' with this problem. I realise that
it is not FreeBSD's problem per se, but a badly configured router somewhere
'out there', just seems that it must be common enough for some part of the
OS to handle it without needing any tweaking. FreeBSD seems great, I am in
the process of migrating from NetBSD so am quite used to configuring as
necessary,
does FreeBSD 7 encounter this situation?

Alasdair

Re: Unable to access certain sites from FreeBSD 6.2
G'day,
Thanks for your reply.
I realised I am not running ipfw my firewall is run from my Netggear router.
So I imagine I would set the divert rule there? (If that is possible).
So it would look like this
Outside-> Modem -> Router (divert to ) -> tcpmssd on
Correct?

Re: Unable to access certain sites from FreeBSD 6.2
G'day Norberto,
Thanks for your reply.
How do I "run an ipfw divert rule to
>net/tcpmssd process " ? Where do I set this rule?
My technical level is probably best described as better than the average
computer user, but well below any competency you would expect for a networking
expert.

Unable to access certain sites from FreeBSD 6.2
Hi, I am having a problem accessing some sites from Freebsd 6.2 in either firefox or Opera. I looked around for some advice on this on the net, found some pages mentioning this as a problem when Freebsd was running on the machine acting as the gateway and the machines trying to access the sites were Windows or Mac. But my case is this my set up: Laptop(FreeBSD 6.2) -> netgearFVS318 router-> ADSL modem (set up as bridge) I have 2 other machines connected to the router, one running Windows XP Home and the other NetBSD 3.01 both have no problem accessing the sites that I can't access on the FreeBSD machine. resolv.conf is set up with the addresses of both my ISP's DNS servers. Below are the results of ifconfig -a and traceroute -v to one of the problem sites. Any clues? Thanks in advance, Alasdair %ifconfig -a re0: flags=8843 mtu 1500 options=1b inet6 fe80::21a:92ff:fed8:ef44%re0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.0.6 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:1a:92:d8:ef:44 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active fwe0: flags=108802 mtu 1500 options=8 ether 02:e0:18:88:76:f0 ch 1 dma -1 lo0: flags=8049 mtu 16384 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 %traceroute -v www.commbank.com.au traceroute: Warning: www.commbank.com.au has multiple addresses; using 210.10.102.196 traceroute to www.commbank.com.au (210.10.102.196), 64 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 0.791 ms 0.255 ms 0.192 ms 2 lb0.sydbras2.syd.iprimus.net.au (203.134.7.66) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 11.593 ms 12.151 ms 11.092 ms 3 vlan450.sw01.syd.iprimus.net.au (203.134.7.1) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 11.540 ms 11.639 ms 11.791 ms 4 fe00.ac04.syd.iprimus.net.au (203.134.67.131) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 11.077 ms 10.422 ms 12.072 ms 5 g2-1-0-5.bdr5.hay.connect.com.au (203.8.183.58) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 11.568 ms 11.834 ms 11.338 ms 6 gigabitethernet0-2.cor13.hay.connect.com.au (203.63.217.85) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 11.820 ms 11.940 ms 11.021 ms 7 210.8.238.1 (210.8.238.1) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 13.266 ms 13.421 ms 13.060 ms 8 * * * 9 210.10.100.2 (210.10.100.2) 36 bytes to 192.168.0.6 14.151 ms 14.017 ms 13.555 ms 10 * * * 11 * * * 12 * * * 13 * * * 14 * * * 15 * * * 16 * * * 17 * * * 18 * * * 19 * * * 20 * * * 21 * * * 22 * * * 23 * * * 24 * * * 25 * * * 26 * * * 27 * * * 28 * * * 29 * * * 30 * * * 31 * * * 32 * * * 33 * * * 34 * * * 35 * * * 36 * * * 37 * * * 38 * * * 39 * * * 40 * * * 41 * * * 42 * * * 43 * * * 44 * * * 45 * * * 46 * * * 47 * * * 48 * * * 49 * * * 50 * * * 51 * * * 52 * * * 53 * * * 54 * * * 55 * * * 56 * * * 57 * * * 58 * * * 59 * * * 60 * * * 61 * * * 62 * * * 63 * * * 64 * * * % $ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

We've got MySQL running on several FreeBSD servers here, some doing 100 qps+, and have had no problems what so ever. We've been using MySQL 3 and 4 on FreeBSD since FreeBSD 4.5 upwards. Here is an example status output from one of our servers: # /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p status Enter password: Uptime: 1271242 Threads: 8 Questions: 76203621 Slow queries: 370 Opens: 2461857 Flush tables: 2 Open tables: 511 Queries per second avg: 59.944 You haven't mentioned the source of your MySQL installs. Are you using MySQL from ports, packages, or a binary or source distribution from the MySQL website? We compile MySQL from source using the following: setenv CFLAGS "-O3 -mpentiumpro" setenv CXX gcc setenv CXXFLAGS "-O3 -mpentiumpro -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -DEAPI" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/var --with-unix-socket-path=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock --with-client-ldflags=-all-static --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static --enable-assembler You also haven't mentioned specifically what happens when there is a problem.. You say the machine becomes unresponsive.. what happens if the queries die down, does the box become responsive again? The only thing I can think of causing this is if queries start to come in faster than the box can process - they will build up and up until the machine, as you say, becomes unresponsive. This would indicate some form of bottleneck somewhere. Monitoring the output of "systat -vmstat" might give some clues as to whats going on. I would certainly investigate the cause of this before abandoning FreeBSD. Any threads on google relating to FreeBSD and MySQL not working together are vastly inaccurate or out of date. There are some performance issues with MySQL on FreeBSD 4 with regards to threading. Try using MySQL linked against LinuxThreads, which should give a performance boost. You can specify -DWITH_LINUXTHREADS when installing from ports. We have a test box running FreeBSD 5.2.1 with MySQL 4, linked against the new kse threading library, which should in theory provide performance comparable/superior to MySQL on a linux box. This box has been completely stable - no MySQL or FreeBSD lockups or crashes. Given that 5.3 and -STABLE are due out soon, it might be worth waiting for those, rather than switching to Linux. However we, and many many other people, run high load MySQL installations on FreeBSD without problem, so I would say your problems are specific to your setup, and not something that is a widespread issue. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Vinum Raid5 Recovery Problem
Hello, I have a problem recovering a Vinum raid5 stripeset, and it was recommended that I post the problem here. Basically, I created a Raid5 Stripeset: drive ibm120ad2 device /dev/ad2s1e drive ibm120ad5 device /dev/ad5s1e drive ibm120ad7 device /dev/ad7s1e volume raid5 plex org raid5 512k sd length 0s drive ibm120ad2 sd length 0s drive ibm120ad5 sd length 0s drive ibm120ad7 I ran saveconfig, to save the configuration to disk. I then proceeded to move quite a lot of data onto the raid5 volume. Then some time later, I reinstalled FreeBSD. To restore the raid5 volume, I ran: read disk /dev/ad2s1e /dev/ad5s1e /dev/ad7s1e Upon doing a list, it gives: vinum -> list 3 drives: D ibm120ad2 State: up Device /dev/ad2s1es1a Avail: 117796/117796 MB (100%) D ibm120ad5 State: up Device /dev/ad5s1es1a Avail: 0/117796 MB (0%) D ibm120ad7 State: up Device /dev/ad7s1es1a Avail: 117796/117796 MB (100%) D *invalid* State: referenced Device Avail: 0/0 MB 1 volumes: V raid5 State: up Plexes: 1 Size:230 GB 1 plexes: P raid5.p0 R5 State: corrupt Subdisks: 3 Size:230 GB 3 subdisks: S raid5.p0.s0 State: up PO:0 B Size:115 GB S raid5.p0.s1 State: stalePO: 512 kB Size:115 GB S raid5.p0.s2 State: stalePO: 1024 kB Size:115 GB Subdisk s0 shows as present: vinum -> list -V raid5.p0.s0 Subdisk raid5.p0.s0: Size: 123518582784 bytes (117796 MB) State: up Plex raid5.p0 at offset 0 (0 B) Drive ibm120ad5 (/dev/ad5s1es1a) at offset 135680 (132 kB) However subdisks s1 and s2 show as missing: vinum -> list -V raid5.p0.s1 Subdisk raid5.p0.s1: Size: 123518582784 bytes (117796 MB) State: stale Plex raid5.p0 at offset 524288 (512 kB) Drive *invalid* (*missing*) at offset 135680 (132 kB) vinum -> list -V raid5.p0.s2 Subdisk raid5.p0.s2: Size: 123518582784 bytes (117796 MB) State: stale Plex raid5.p0 at offset 1048576 (1024 kB) Drive *invalid* (*missing*) at offset 135680 (132 kB) They seem to have lost their drivename, so don't know which drive represents them. I have tried doing various things, such as changing the read disk options, ie "read disk /dev/ad2" etc, but all had pretty much the same result. I am at a loss for what to do next. Initially I did attempt to mount the raid5 volume, doing an ls on the mount point showed the correct directories, however when I attempted to cd and then ls into them, the kernel paniced. I since haven't been able to mount the raid5 volume, I get "mount: /dev/vinum/raid5 on /raid5: incorrect super block". I am concerned that I have somehow damaged the stripeset. Unfortunately backup media for backing up 240Gb's worth of data is rather expensive compared to how cheap disks are at the moment, and as such I only have backups of the critical data, so any help will be greatly appreciated! Many thanks.
