TCPmux
Good Morning, Is there a flag or a setting in the PF firewall in FreeBSD that you can set to allow TCPmux traffic to flow through it? The pass all rule doesn't seem to work, however if I disable PF completely then the TCPmux traffic flow through.

I have no problems with tcpmux and pf. Can you show your config? On my machines
tcpmux is served from inetd on default port (1).

custom iso with /etc/src.conf
Hi all, I know I can build custom iso with make release but this is my question: In order to get some custom build, e.g. for jails, I used to write some things to /etc/src.conf for not installing / compiling some software (games, daemons etc), so my jail is really thin. But now, I would REALLY love to make this jail system as default bsd system which I can install to pc from installer, which would be at iso. Well, this would not be just like jail, there would be kernel as well and so on ... From what I know, there are several stages in make release, from release(7) I see that release: Uses ``make installworld'' to install a clean system into a chroot(8) environment on the file system. Checks out the specified version of the source code and then rebuilds the entire system in the clean environment with ``make buildworld''. The detailed steps that follow are then executed to package up the different distributions, build the installation floppy disks, build release documenta- tion, and so on. I have cvs repository localy installed in /home/ncvs. But, if I compile it (/usr/src with /etc/src.conf) and than make release, it will fail because even I install it, it fails to buildworld in make release stage, because I have not make + compiler toolchain and other things in that clean system after installworld. So my question is, how to make it in that way, that I make release, full system is installed to chroot and than system suitable for my needs (/etc/src.conf options what to compile and what not) is build and isos are made.

bash instead of csh (completely)
Hi list, title says it, i would like completely remove csh and install bash instead. As far I know, csh is build in system, could I remove it manually and install bash (of course, in reverse order :D) Are there such dependencies on csh? I know that real system scripting is done via /bin/sh co absence of csh shell should not break system. Am I wrong ?

Re: bash instead of csh (completely)
Hi all, First of all, thank you for your quick answers, I really appreciate it. I dont want to start flame war about linux vs bsd but ... :) Before I start to explain what I want to do, I want you know I consider freebsd fr away better than linux in a lot of ways. (it is also a reason I want to build something upon bsd instead of linux, there are so many advantages ... ok, this post isnt about that :)) In work, we try to do some kind of linux distro, it is based on slacware. I am not a guy who lead it, but in the way we are developing it, I think it is bad idea at all. Firstly, we try to do minimal slackware installation as much it is possible, so now we are about 2.6.34 kernel, minimum kernel modules, no man or docs, files you do not need for sure are removed. We ended with quite usable system with quite neccessary utilities. It has about ~150 MB. But I think with this process, we just cut ourselves from such things like system upgrade (if slackware would have someone :D), package upgrade (we nearly all do manually, compiling from source) and so on ... Note that this distro is not something massively distributed, just for our purpose, but problems remains. While I always inclined to *bsd and not used linux more as it was a duty, I want to do it in bsd way. So set up minimal bsd without things I do not need but still stay in touch with things like package system, ports (its the same) and system upgrades / updates. I should write my own installer and so on. What I still miss is a way how to bend freebsd to my needs. In linux, it is easy as hell, remove this, change that, and it still runs. I am afraid that if I cut off some parts of system, I will not benefit from it anymore. For example, I install minimal bsd, but it contains still things I do not need (some dir like games and other stuff or some ancient groups in /etc/groups like uucp, proxy,games, dialer (??? in year 2010, who use it?) and so on. So I am afraid to be so brutal to just remove it ... FreeBSD has another philosophy than Linux, but i feel Linux is more customizable. But understand that it is advantage and disadvantage too ... I think I have to more study about /usr/src/ :) For example, I would like to know, how to install something into other dir and no to default one. Think about port. All to /usr/local/ ... and so on. But what if I want to install it in /ExtraStuff ? How do I do it in make install clean way? Change port's make file ? no way .

I know that real system scripting is done via /bin/sh co absence of csh shell should not break system. Why do you feel it is necessary to completely remove csh? It is part of the base install of the OS and does not prevent you from installing and using Bash should you choose. Since these are not mutually exclusive I see no reason to remove csh. Just leave it be. Arbitrarily 'removing' stuff from the base system without relevant reason is more likely to create a problem where none existed previously. You can install Bash from ports. You should know that it is a third party userland application at this point. What you will find out some day when /usr won't mount and you're sitting in single-user mode trying to recover the box is bash will not be working. And if you made the mistake of changing root's shell to bash you will not be a happy camper. You are certainly free to use whatever shell you want as a user. Don't mess with root's shell. I saw once some highly questionable so-called 'benchmarking' where it was claimed that bash is 4 times slower than anything else. My own $.02 is the fixation on bash is more a result from people coming over to FreeBSD from Linux, and trying to drag Linux methodologies along with instead of looking at FreeBSD fresh and learning new stuff. While there is a lot of similarity and overlap, FreeBSD is *not* just another Linux distro. -Mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
cpu utilization question in FreeBSD
Hi, Im trying to put together a number of data recorders, to collect raw data from kernel or from applications. Here you can see a basic idea of SDR: http://www.systemdatarecorder.org/recording/recdesign.html http://www.systemdatarecorder.org/recording/recorders.html Im currently trying to port sysrec, http://www.systemdatarecorder.org/recording/sdr_bin/sysrec to FreeBSD. I would like to understand how CPU Utilization in FreeBSD counts, comparing to Solaris. Currently sysrec records the following metrics: # Utilisation, # CPU# usr + sys time across all CPUs # Memory # free RAM. freemem from availrmem # Disk # %busy. r+w times across all Disks # Network# throughput. r+w bytes across all NICs # # Saturation, # CPU# threads on the run queue # Memory # scan rate of the page scanner # Disk # operations on the wait queue # Network# errors due to buffer saturation # Would be fair to count CPU Util in FreeBSD similar with Solaris, User + System time ? Is there any Perl module or KSTAT functionality which exports these functionalities to userland for simple consumption ?

add own program to ports + help with port / program
hi list, I am about writing shell script which adds system account by tens (even hundreds). Info about added accounts is stored in external file which has syntax like this account-name:comment:email-addres Briefly, account-name is name of account comment field is comment which appears in /etc/passwd comment field email-address is address where info about just created account is sent (optional) eg. joe:Joe Brown:j...@something.com brown%3a...@something.com mark:Mark Red:m...@nowhere.org red%3am...@nowhere.org tim:Tim Yellow:ti...@example.com yellow%3ati...@example.com Script is checking file syntax and if syntax is bad, it exits. If it is ok, accounts is being created. You can modify a lot of infos, these are stored in config file in /usr/local/etc/pwgroup.conf, eg # output file with passwords of newly # created user accounts PASSWD_FILE=passwords # uid of first created user UID=2000 # root home dir of users HOME_DIR=/home # comment for users, appears in /etc/passwd # in comment field COMMENT= # primary group for users, if empty, # primary group will be a user name GROUP=users # comma separated list of groups # users should be a member of GROUPLIST= # shell for users SHELL=/bin/csh # use quotas QUOTAS=NO # hard quote limit QUOTA_HARD=1536 # soft quote limit QUOTA_SOFT=1024 # disk device upon which users are created DISK_DEV=/home # expiration date of accounts ACCOUNT_EXP=30-Jun-2010 # length of password PASSWORD_LENGTH=8 == as you can see, you can set quotas for users, account expiration of accounts, password length, shell and so on. Variables in config file are default, if you do not overwrite some at command line. some examples: # pwgrp -a -f users -c unix begginer -s /usr/local/bin/bash -q -qh 2048 -l 10 (adding users) # pwgrp -r -f remove_users (list of users for removing) Password are generated by apg program Quotas are set by setquotas. The main reason I write this mail is to make some feedback about program to me and even test it and comment it. I want to write this program but I do not know if I do it correct and I need some feedback about programming style or just some info what do you think about it. At this time, there is absence of manual, but if you track code, I think you understand it. Any ideas are highly appreciated. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

shell command line argument + parsing function
hi,
assuming I execute shell script like this
$ ./script -c hello world
I want to save hello world string to variable COMMENT in shell script.
code:
#!/bin/sh
parse_cmdline() {
while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
case $1 in
-c)
shift
COMMENT=$1
;;
esac
shift
done
}
parse_cmdline $*
echo $COMMENT
exit 0
but that only write out hello. I tried to change $* to $@, nothing
changed.
It is interesting, that if I dont put while loop into function
parse_cmdline,
and do echo $COMMENT, it writes hello world.
I WANT that function style. How to do it ?

I want to chroot user to /home/user. But, as in manual, if you are going to do that, chrooted dir must be owned by root and not writable by anyone. This is impossible to do then. In sshd_config(5), there is ChrootDirectory keyword, and there are %u (user name) and %h (home dir) which would work, but they do not. Using of ChrootDirectory /home/%u does not work (because of privileges issue). it is also an option to chmod 700 for home dirs, but is there some other way? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

close users in jail
hi all, I am going to do some research in area of creating server in educational sphere, for example for some computer course at an university. At this server, there would be a lot of users (in tens, even hundreds) and I am also going to write some kind of shell script, which all of this does automatically. (something like pw but it makes as lot of accounts as I want to). At this configuration, it is inevitable to secure some tries of hacking and security attacks on the main system. I would like to get all users into jail (jail in computer :D) I know, if server has good security policy, I shouldn't be afraid, but in the end of course, I can delete all of that stuff very easily. It is a good idea? Some pros / cons ? I would like to get into jail also essential services, apache, ftp, quotas.

A gmirror question.
Hi! I've got a question regarding the way that gmirror identifies what components (if that is the right term) are included in a mirror. I recently created a mirror over two disks, ad2 and ad4. After some bios changes (activating PATA) these devices were changed to ad6 and ad10 respectively. The magic thing (which probably isn't so magic =) ) here is that after reboot, gmirror still managed to identify the mirror, now using ad6 and ad10. If I have understood things correctly, gmirror stores all relevant information about the mirror in the last sector on the provider. So I guess one possible solution is that gmirror ,during startup, scans all disks/slices for this magic sector and then starts the mirror. But if this is the case, how does gmirror know that it should use (in my example above) ad10 and not ad4 as the additional disk in the mirror. Or does gmirror use something else than the /dev entries to address disks?? I'm just curious how gmirror does this.

Current status of SEBSD / how to build FLASK system on top of current FreeBSD?
Hello, could someone knowledgeable please give some information on the status of SEBSD? I have found the project page beneath the TrustedBSD homepage, but it seems a bit abandoned (no release since 2006, no mailing list traffic). Is SEBSD an integral part of the current standard kernel, or do I have to apply the patch as indicated on the homepage? And will the patch work with 7.0-RELENG or CURRENT? Should SEBSD be no longer actively maintained, how do I build the equivalence of an SELinux system on top of FreeBSD? I.e., which of the MAC modules should I use, so that the SELinux Reference Policy can be loaded and enforced? Thanks a lot!

Problem with atapicam on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5 causes system-freeze
Hi all, I'm using FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5, with the standard SMP kernel found in / usr/src/sys/i386/conf/SMP, when i 'kldload atapicam' i get the following error message which just makes no sense to me: WARNING - PREVENT_ALLOW taskqueue timeout - completing request directly xptioctl: put device pass0 in your kernel config file xptioctl: pass driver is not in the kernel Right after I get this error message, it starts repeating again and again, and the system is no more useable. Then I installed the normal GENERIC kernel without SMP support, and the same thing happens, same error message. Then i tried to compile device atapicam directly into the kernel, which makes the system hang at boot time, while recognizing the cdrom. The standard SMP kernel includes the GENERIC kernel in which the line device pass can be found, that means pass must be allready in the kernel. Please have a look at the output from dmesg and kldstat -v here (link) http://nopaste.info/52ef292281.html I searched the web for similar error messages, and found a message pointing this problem to hald, so i disabled hald to see if that chances anything. And it did, while 'kldload atapicam' i'm not getting the above error message anymore, but 'camcontrol devlist' doesnt show anything and cdrecord -scanbus ends up in the following errormessage: Cdrecord-Clone 2.01 (i386-unknown-freebsd6.2) Copyright (C) 1995-2004 Jÿÿrg Schilling cdrecord: Error 0.

syslog(3) as user sets errno
If a non-privilged program calls syslog(3), after the call, errno is set to 13 (permission denied). In lib/libc/gen/syslog.c connectlog(), it is first tried to connect to /var/run/logpriv. If it fails /var/run/log is tried. The first connect fails if syslog() is not called as root, it fails with errno=13 and the second connect succeeds. This is all fine, except that errno is set to 13 after calling syslog(). Is this a bug or expected behaviour? IMHO errno should be set to 0 before the second connect is called -- or is this a bad idea?

I configured my Ethernet device with the correct IP, Gateway, Netmask, DNS but i dont know how to start my internet on FreeBSD.

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.

plextor PX-760SA problem
Hello! I'm having some trouble trying to burn dvd:s using my PX-760SA under FreeBSD. As far as I know, the DVD-burning software that is available for FBSD uses the SCSI subsystem and therefore requires atapicam. My problem is the following: After Compiling the kernel with the following options device atapicam device ata device scbus device cd device pass The system almost hangs at startup. With almost I mean that when it tries to recognize the cd0 device it hangs for about 5-10 minutes and then produces the output: cd0 at ata2 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 cd0: PLEXTOR DVDR PX-760A 1.03 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd0: 3.300MB/s transfers cd0: @ after that it hangs again. I've also tried loading the atapicam module with kldload which generates almost the same behavior. After kldload I can use the system until I try kldstat or ls /dev then it hangs for about 5-10 minutes. produces the output cd0 at ata2 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 cd0: PLEXTOR DVDR PX-760A 1.03 Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device cd0: 3.300MB/s transfers cd0: @ and then hangs again for another couple of minutes, responds to my commands for a couple of minutes and hangs again and so on. I tried upgrading the firmware of the PK-760SA to 1.06. Still the same problem There is no problem using the PX-760SA without atapicam. dmesg attached.

Problem with ICH4 fxp driver and FreeBSD 6
Hi all, I am encountering a strange problem compiling a kernel for a MS-6557 mainboard (a Hermes 845GV) with Intel845GV Chipset. Everything is OK with the GENERIC 6.0 Kernel; but as soon as I install a self compiled kernel (6.0 or 6.1), I get fxp driver timeouts. On loading the if_fxp.ko module (+miibus.ko) the driver is recognised and the interface is configured correctly, but as soon as network traffic is generated, I get the fxp driver timeout message (and hence bo network connectivity ;-( No other error messages apear and every other bit of hardware seems to be recognised and ok. I suspect resource problems (like IRQ), but I am vague about PCI and IRQ settings. I have tried a kernel with all unneccessary hardware deactivated (usb, firewire) but to no avail. Can anyone give me some hints, about how to get about? I am glad to give detailed information about kernel and system configuration.

If not, why does portsnap even suggest them? The ports tree has no branches (like RELENG_5 or RELENG_6). Portsnap get's you the current state of the ports tree into /usr/ports. You can install them from that source on a supported FreeBSD release (like 6.0-pX == RELENG_6_0), using the usual ways to build ports (cd / usr/ports/xxx/yyy; make install or portinstall). When a release is built, the binary packages that go onto the CDs are built from the then-current ports tree. The FTP servers carry what got included in the CDs, so those packages will never change. The stable packages on the FTP servers are regularly built with the current ports tree. Since they are built on a stable release (FreeBSD-6-stable == RELENG_6), they might work on an early release, but that is not guaranteed. If you want to use these packages, you should have a fairly recent stable release. To sum it up: you can install/upgrade the ports, but you cannot install the stable packages on a security release.

Re: install 6.1-release through serial terminal?
Am 27.07.2006 um 09:17 schrieb Tyler Spivey: Hello. I'm a blind user, and was wondering how to get 6.1-release to install over serial. I've tried everything - hitting option 6, space, boot -h cr, but nothing happens. unplugging the keyboard, nothing happens. hitting space and typing boot -h - nothing. This is using a cdrom disc1. Any help would be appreciated. When the boot menu appears, exit out of it by typing 6. At the loader prompt, enter set console=comconsole The console should switch to COM1; then you should be able to boot using the boot command. You can change the speed of the serial port by setting comconsole_speed to the desired baud rate. The loader man page has more info on these two variables: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ man.cgi?query=loaderapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+6.1- RELEASEformat=html After having finished the install, you can use the same method to temporarily switch to the comconsole on first boot. Then, you probably want to a a file /boot.config with a single line -Dh to enable dual console (video+serial). Also useful: if you decide to install FreeBSD's master boot record (boot0) in sector 0 of your disk (that gives you the opportunity to select which of the foour primary partitions to boot from by pressing F1 to F4), there's also a variant that works over the serial console. You can put this on using FreeBSD boot0cfg(8): http://www.freebsd.org/ cgi/man.cgi?query=boot0cfgapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+6.1- RELEASEformat=html HTH, Stefan -- Stefan Bethke [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fon +49 170 346 0140 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

daily security output usr/src should be gid = 9 = man
Hi, is this the right behaviour that /usr/src should be labeled with gid 9 which is the group man? When I label /usr/src with the group wheel I get a daily security output like this: Checking special files and directories. Output format is: filename: criteria (shouldbe, reallyis) usr/src: gid (9, 0) When I label it with gid 9 which is the group man I don't get a security hint. But why would or should I label /usr/src with group- privilegies man? Is this the default behaviour? I'm running FreeBSD RELENG_6_0 Best regards, Stefan PGP.sig Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: daily security output usr/src should be gid = 9 = man
When you say 'label' do you mean using chown or chgrp? I mean: chgrp wheel /usr/src Your daily security output may just be telling you that it changed to something from the GID of 9 that it was the last time it checked.I don't know of any other reason it would point that out. Damn your right ;-) I did a second run and everything went fine. Now I know what went wrong. Everytime I saw this message I changed the group and that was the reason why I became every day this message. Thanks for your quick response.

IPv6 and a local network behind a gateway
Hi all, I saw some time ago a similiar question on the mailinglist but the relevant config files were on a temporarly server, so I can't reconstruct the situation. So I hope someone could say the things a second time ;-) Here is my setup: I'm running a FreeBSD server behind a DSL-Box (NAT) with one network interface. This server is connected with two other workstation through a switch. I register by sixxs (a IPv6 service provider). After some installation I got my IPv6 connection between the sixxs provider and my FreeBSD server running! I can ping www.kame.net and when I go to ww.kame.net with lynx I can see the dancing kame. So the setup should be fine. I setup rtadvd for the workstations and it seems to be ok. The workstations get their IPv6 addresses but I can't ping anything outside my LAN. Summary: Connecting to the IPv6-world from the FreeBSD-server is OK but I don't get any connection from the clients. Here are the configs: /etc/rc.conf ipv6_enable=YES ipv6_defaultrouter=2001:6f8:900:612::1%em0 ipv6_default_interface=gif0 gif_interfaces=gif0 gifconfig_gif0=192.168.130.2 212.224.0.189 ipv6_ifconfig_gif0=2001:6f8:900:612::2 2001:6f8:900:612::1 prefixlen 128 ipv6_gateway_enable=YES ipv6_ifconfig_em0=2001:6f8:900:612::3 prefixlen 64 rtadvd_enable=YES rtadvd_interfaces=em0 /etc/rtadvd.conf em0:\ :addrs#1:addr=2001:6f8:900:612:::prefixlen#64:tc=ether: Hardware (FreeBSD server): one network interface card: em0 Software (FreeBSD server): default installation with the latest updates tcpdump from the FreeBSD server when I try to ping6 www.kame.net from a client # tcpdump -ni gif0 icmp6 00:59:36.917672 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 0, length 16 00:59:37.922935 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 1, length 16 00:59:38.930710 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 2, length 16 00:59:39.933212 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 3, length 16 00:59:40.938355 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 4, length 16 00:59:41.943378 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 5, length 16 00:59:42.948514 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 6, length 16 00:59:43.953657 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 7, length 16 00:59:44.958794 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 8, length 16 00:59:45.963937 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 9, length 16 00:59:46.969333 IP6 2001:6f8:900:612:211:24ff:fee1:776c 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085: ICMP6, echo request, seq 10, length 16 I don't have an more ideas!

After doing alot of testing and trying this is some more new information: It actually DO crash on i386 FreeBSD 6.0-RC1 aswell, but very seldom (around once every 4-5th hour, this time we get a Signal 10 instead, see below). The errors are reproducable for MySQL 4.1.15 and MySQL 5.0.15 so the problem still exists on 5.0.15. Of course we have tried on different machines aswell to make sure it's not hardware related. On a FreeBSD 5.3 machine Mysql 4.1.15 works fine. mysqld got signal 10; This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built, or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware. We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, something is definitely wrong and this may fail. key_buffer_size=1048576 read_buffer_size=131072 max_used_connections=99 max_connections=400 threads_connected=44 It is possible that mysqld could use up to key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_connections = 461820 K bytes of memory Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

installing 5.4 on RAID1 using Promise TX2200
I just got an Promise TX2200 RAID Controller and 2x250GB SATA Drives for my new webserver. As soon as I define a raid of some sort, the installation cd just reboots the system. I think that happens at the stage where the kernel should be loaded. I've used the TX2000 with IDE drives before. There I had similar problems. I learned that the BIOS on the controller should not be used to define the array. What I did back then: - do not define the array with the Controller BIOS - boot from the install cd, start the live-filesystem - use atacontrol to define the array - install freebsd to the new ar0 device (I'm not sure anymore if that device just turned up or I had to reboot first) - everything works fine This doesn't seem to work with the TX2200 anymore. I can define the mirror from the live-filesystem, but the ar0 device does not turn up. Once I try boot from the installation cd again, I end up in the endless reboot cycle. The default FreeBSD kernel can handle the controller though. If install freebsd on a seperate harddisk, there are no problems utilizing the mirrored disks with atacontrol. The system boots normally. I can format and mount the filesystem, recover from removing one of the disks etc. Does the installation CD use a different kernel than a default system? I tried installing using /stand/systinstall (after booting the other installation on the seperate hd). But I could not get it to install correctly. It would just overwrite the existing installation...

There I had similar problems. I learned that the BIOS on the controller should not be used to define the array. What I did back then: - do not define the array with the Controller BIOS - boot from the install cd, start the live-filesystem - use atacontrol to define the array - install freebsd to the new ar0 device (I'm not sure anymore if that device just turned up or I had to reboot first) - everything works fine This doesn't seem to work with the TX2200 anymore. I can define the mirror from the live-filesystem, but the ar0 device does not turn up. Once I try boot from the installation cd again, I end up in the endless reboot cycle. The default FreeBSD kernel can handle the controller though. If install freebsd on a seperate harddisk, there are no problems utilizing the mirrored disks with atacontrol. The system boots normally. I can format and mount the filesystem, recover from removing one of the disks etc. Does the installation CD use a different kernel than a default system? I tried installing using /stand/systinstall (after booting the other installation on the seperate hd). But I could not get it to install correctly. It would just overwrite the existing installation...

dot.logout
Hi. FreeBSD provides a bunch of helpful configuration files under /usr/share/skel. But in my opinion one important file isn't there (dot.logout). NetBSD for example has such a dot.logout file. I know that there is a system-wide logout file under /etc but it would be nice to have one for each user by default. Is it possible to add a default /usr/share/skel/dot.logout file to FreeBSD? -Stefan -- GPG-encrypted mail welcome! -- ID:E970FCBE ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
dot.logout
I have several files and directories added to the skel location that are propagated to new user creations. You shouldn't have any trouble at all as long as it doesn't have the same name as one of the standard system files, since these will be overwritten in the 'make installworld' process. Yes that's a way to work around. But it would be nice to have this file by default. -Stefan -- GPG-encrypted mail welcome! -- ID:E970FCBE ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: File corruption on uploaded files occuring (even under light load)
Sorry, should have added that it's in FreeBSD 5.3. Does anyone know if there is any way to stress-test the PCI bus (preferably without external cards)? Regards, Stefan Haglund I have an IWILL KK266-R (VIA KT133A/686B) board with an 1.4GHz processor running as a FreeBSD file web server. The NIC is an Intel EtherExpress PRO/100 (I think it's called, fxp anyway). This board has an AMI RAID controller (CMD 649) onboard, which I use for all four drives (although not in RAID). My problem: Files uploaded to this server are sometimes corrupted. It doesn't have to be under high load, like directly uploading from a computer. It can also occur when I'm downloading from the internet on a computer, and save the file to the server. Another thing that is wierd, is that when the computer is fresh from a boot, there is always a few netstat Oerrs (5-30 I've seen this far) errors occuring when downloading or uploading, and never again. I have run mprime stresstest for a good while, with no complaints. I have also tried another NIC, and also moving the NIC to other PCI slots. I've tried with kernels without APIC, tried disabling ACPI, and I've also disabled throttling. My friend is running a similar setup on his server, although a KT266A chipset, and no RAID controller (southbridge IDE), and it is solid as a rock. Anyone have any ideas what might be causing these corruptions? Chipset? NIC? RAID controller?

Re: Samba problems
First of all, make sure those mounts are accessible for normal users, if you haven't. It's under the options for the mount in /etc/fstab, I think. You can always do a 'man fstab' if unsure. Does the username/password (check out 'smbpasswd') you are using to connect to samba exist in the samba user database? If not, samba won't know who you are, and will use the default guest user to access files (usually very restricted). That might be why you can access the mounts when you log in to the server, but not through server. If you go with the first, ALL users will have access. If you want to restrict it to, say, a certain group, you have to go with the second solution I think (and add users in the samba user database). Hope I got the issue correctly, else I dunno :-). Regards, Stefan Haglund Hello, I am using FreeBSD 5.3 with Samba 3.0.7,1. I can read all files from a Windows 2000 Pro.

Re: Samba problems
Could you output the /etc/fstab? As far as I know, the major difference is that writing to NTFS isn't fully supported in Linux (last I checked). Maybe there is something Samba tries to do, that conflicts with that. Other than that I don't know, sorry. :-) Regards, Stefan Haglund On Sat, 26 Mar 2005 16:59:11 +0100 Stefan Haglund [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: First of all, make sure those mounts are accessible for normal users, if you haven't.

I tried to map the guest account to the user ale that I use (and I can access '/mnt/w2k'), but nothing happened. This only happens in a NTFS mount point. The files and directories show as truncated, and I can not see (determine size, copy, determine if it is a file or directory, etc.) them until I do an operation over them with any normal user in the server, then I can see the files/dirs affected by the operation I did (ls, etc.).

where is autoconf
hi there, I'm quite new to freebsd, so please forgive my ignorance. I'v just installed freebsd on a free partition, and I try to get familiar with the system. Ultimately I'd like to try to port applications I develop on linux to freebsd. The first issue I run into is that I'm unable to find an 'autoconf' executable. I'v found different versions as ports and packages, but they all only seem to contain autoconfversion, where version is one of [213, 253, 259]. What am I doing wrong ?

Re: where is autoconf
Hi Thomas, Did you install any of these ports of autoconf? yes, autoconf-2.59_2 is currently installed. Remember the ports tree is a skeleton of potential applications you can install, they are not the actual installed apps themselves.. be sure and read the Ports/Packages section of the handbook : http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html A pkg-plist file. This is a list of all the files that will be installed by the port. It also tells the ports system what files to remove upon deinstallation. Well, I was looking for 'autoconf' in these files but didn't find it. And indeed, even though I have 'autoconf-2.59_2' installed, all I have is 'autoconf259', but not 'autoconf'. What are you attempting to install that requires autoconf? I'm trying to compile my own code, and my build system has a toplevel 'autogen.sh' file that runs 'autoconf' in a number of places.

This is necessary because the autoconf developers don't understand why backwards compatibility is important for their tools (new versions like 2.59 cannot be used to build old applications that were written for e.g. 2.13, nor can multiple versions of autoconf be easily installed concurrently). I'm aware of these (very unfortunate) incompatibilities, though I had expected the problem to be dealt with differently (for example by setting a symbolic link to the currently active version). You can use the gnu-autoconf and related ports, which installs into /usr/local/gnu-autotools so they do not poison the build environment of other ports. YOu might have to play games with PATH or other variables to get your application to find them. Ok, thanks for the explanation.
