wdm doesn't start windowing manager.
Has anybody had this problem and fixed it? wdm runs my ~/.xsession file; but no X-applications run. It just runs past them and returns to the wdm login screen. Currently I am running xdm; but it's kind of bland and spicing it up requires a very steep learning curve. == What did you do? the man holding the flashlight asked.

wdm and xdm problems - related to HAL?
So I got Xorg working with Hal. Wahoo. If I log in from a display manager I encounter some weird stuff. If I am using xdm and I log out of the window manager and then attempt to shut down the computer - by going to tty 0 and typing # halt -p - the disk syncs and then the shutdown freezes. If I am using wdm and I log out of the window manager and want to log back in, it takes my username but does not clear the text field for me to type a password. There is only one regular user on the system. FreeBSD 7.2 release. Blackbox wm. graphics: ATI mobility radeon Xpress 200m, 64MB - 128MB.

Re: PPPoE server (high traffic in WDM network)
Hi, I've little off topic suggestion regarding network design. The solution you are implementing will mean to make hundreds of users share the same broadcast domain. As all your FTTH and other DSLAMS would be working in bridge mode. This scenerio is not safe as if anyone of your clients will start his own pppoe server you will be in strange trouble, there can be other issues too. I guess your DSLAMs must have built in pppoe support and radius client, if its there then every port of dslams can be separate broadcast domain. This will cause you extra routing management (depending upon your scsnerio) In case your DSLAMS have no pppoe feature then i would suggest you to at least put every DSLAM's uplink port in deparate VLAN and connect pppoe server using trunk port or multiple single ports. And before implementing this solution consult your DSLAM vendor cause ive observed problems in ipdslams when used in bridge/transperant mode.

PPPoE server (high traffic in WDM network)
Hello Michelle, I think you better ask about the performance you should expect out of a PPPoE server on the mpd forum. There people on the forum with real numbers. If I go with 1 U Sun Fire X4100M2 the Opteron has 4 Cores and 4 threads per core (AFAIK there is a 8 threads version too) I would ask about this as well. i386? amd64? number of cores? http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=44693 HTH, Nikos ___ 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

So, you'll have 96*200 possible PPP clients. How many concurrent PPP sessions do you care to support? And more importantly, how much aggregate bandwidth? Because the customers are permanently On-Line du to the VoIP-Telephone, we count with the full number of clients... The distance between the FTTH DSLAM and the customers can be up to 10km. The idea is now, that we do not simply connect the FTTH DSLAM's to the CISCO switches but building a redunant Ethernet Carrier Network. This mean, we can install in each village there own FTTH DSLAM even if there are 2500 hausholds and we install 26 FTTH DSLAM's there. This mean in theorie 250 GBit Customer Downstream, 26 Gbit Upstream but we count with a 10 GE which is maybe used to 30-50%. OK, if we switch to an Ethernet Carrier Network I could install one or two PPPoE Servers in each village. But if one goes down, the second has to handel 2500 client connections. I *think* the number of clients is doable. I don't know about the bandwidth. Note: This is ONLY the base installation between Kehl, Rheinau, Renchen and Oberkirch (arround 35.000 hausholds) and the whole region has 150.000 hausholds. Don't understand what you mean round-robin and loadbalancing? Read below. snip FreeBSD has a RADIUS library in base. The two notable users of libradius are ppp and net/mpd. The only choice in a ISP environment I think is the net/mpd5 port. Read the outline here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/url.cgi?ports/net/mpd5/pkg-descr It is very good and is actually used in large setups. Thankyo for the link, I will red on if I am in Office... Can't reply, but keep in mind that filling a 10GE pipe is a hard task on its own. It depends on how many customers you have and with an Internet access of 100 Mbit plus services like IPTV and VOD you can fill up a 10 GE pipe. I meant filling a 10 Gbit pipe with a general purpose computer architecture is a hard task. Packet forwarding at these rates is tricky. I *think* having more low fidelity BRASs, will serve your needs better that a few high fidelity ones. You mean, putting a bunch of small 1U Servers into a 19 42RU? Yes, you may find that having two small boxes instead of bigger one gives better results performance-wise. You also have to test if SMP helps and how much. A beast with 16 cores is more powerful from a regular computer with 2 cores, but does it help in your setup? You can try NanoBSD and TinyBSD which are FreeBSD based and I believe can fit the bill. These two run with their filesystems read-only mounted which is ideal for flash memories. Can you recomment it for an ISP setup? It's FreeBSD running from a read-only mounted medium. No more, no less. Yes, it's fine for an ISP setup. Hmmm, I am right, that NanoBSD can be bootup over network? (this would be another solution) NanoBSD is meant to run in embedded stand-alone devices. So, I *guess* that is conceptually very far from net booting.
