Someone else will hopefully respond about the ftp stuff -
but, there should be no problem getting the http stuff to work
through the proxy server. You just have to change your browser
to use whatever port the proxy server requires and make sure the
manager of the proxy sets the proxy server to allow your machine
to talk to it the same as they allow the windows clients (browsers)
and it should work. Of course, you will be blocked from the same
porno sites as everyone else. I haven't taken any survey of all
browser clients, but any that I have used allow the port to be
set. They have things explicitly allowing you to configure them
to run through a proxy.
As for ftp, does the proxy server proxy ftp as well as http?
Ours do not so I haven't had to look at that. There is also
stuff in the list archive and maybe even FAQs about getting ftp
through NATs and firewalls that may apply. Look for Passive FTP
and such things.

As your school owns a /26 network (which gives you 62 usable host
addresses, plust the network and broadcast addresses) you can just
assign one of the unused static addresses to the FTP server. It's as
simple as that. As this machine is going to be visible on the
Internet, you should contact whoever runs the DNS for your network and
get the machine's hostname and IP number properly registered (ie. both
forward (A) and inverse (PTR) records).
You should setup the FTP server's static address by inserting the
correct data into /etc/rc.conf, rather than attempting to use
DHCP. You can probably extract the correct settings by running
ipconfig in a DOS shell on your Win2000 machine. As a helpful hint:
the netmask for a /26 is 255.255.255.192 or 0xffffffc0, and the
broadcast address will end with either .63, .127, .191 or .255.
Getting a DHCP service out of the external side of your Windows
gateway machine should not be possible, for proper security.
Don't worry about the Hub being a performance bottleneck -- you'll
hardly notice it against the limitations of T1 bandwidth. However, do
realise that your FTP server will be exposed to the Internet and some
care will need to be taken to make sure that it is properly secured.
(Running FreeBSD is a very good start in that direction).
Cheers,
Matthew

You might want to check out the MySQL installation manual:

I have a relatively standard 4.0.16 installation running under
4.9-STABLE and haven't run into any problems with it.

The Toshiba would have an Intel type CPU of the I386 type.
So, install I386 FreeBSD Version 4.9. If you have an internet
connection with decent speed, just download the mini-iso and then
do the rest of the install over the net via ftp. It will do
everything for you.

Hi, I'm an italian user.
Yesterday I've tried to install FreeBSD in an old and empty 486.
I've downloaded the floppies and I've made the images
kern.flp e mfsroot.flp .
I've switched-on the pc with kern.flp floppy inside....
at a point the computer has asked to insert mfsroot.....
After a few minutes I've seen on the screen:
>> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 0:fd(0,a)/boot/loader
boot:
e poi
>> FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 0:fd(0,a)/kernel
boot:
No kernel
What I have to do to continue?
I've an HD and a floppy....no a CD-Rom reader....
BOOT see the units as
disk0 --> floppy
disk1 --> hard disk
I've read that the relationship between BIOS and FreeBSD about the units is
different.
I need to know how I can continue the installation and what is the function
of the image
boot.flp of 2,8 Mb and finally, what I need apart the floppies
kern
mfsroot

Yes, with that kind of setup your FTP server is likely to be much
better accessible than with the previous one :-)
Assuming, of course, that the external interface of Windows 2000 server
is Ethernet and there are no tricks like PPPoE involved.

Well, then you just need to ask your school's admin to give you one of
those static (I assume you mean public?) addresses and assign it to
your FreeBSD machine manually.

You just need to assign an address which is different from that of the
public interface of the Windows server :-) Otherwise the Windows admin
*will* come for your head :-)

Greetings,
I have a 4.4-stable box that is a firewall/router/nat box for my Lan.
I keep getting the following message:
/kernel arplookup 10.2.2.2 failed. Host is not on local network.
My external Nic is configured with a real IP, and a netmask of
255.255.255.0. This is static and configured per the ISP's
instruction.
My internal nic is statically configured to use the 192.168.1.4
ip address with the netmask of 255.255.255.0.
netstat -rn shows nothing odd or out of the ordinary.
How can I supress these messages as they fill my log and
console.
thanks in advance,
Darryl.
BTW, I think these messages are generated prior to IPFilter ever

No expert here, but I've received
similar errors, and trashing that
floppy in favor of another (new)
one usually helped. YMMV, of course...

Hello All,
I have a strange problem with my FreeBSD 4.5 server. The server daily turns
off automatically every night. I checked my power sockets and power cables
and everything is good. i wonder why the server is shutting down daily at
night times. I could not get much useful information through log files. I
am having this problem from past 2 weeks and I did not make any changes to
the server when it was working fine. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Surely you don't intend to install *every*
program under /usr/ports/sysutils?
There is a good chance that at any given
time, one of them is borken, or marked
as such; it's even possible that that is
what happened here.
Not to mention, you'll likely get version
conflicts....

We will be using our datacenter's backup (Datavault) for our FreeBSD
machines. I do have the Linux emu. installed, but before testing this out I
wanted to see if anyone else has done this before. The agent we will be
using is for Linux (no versions for FreeBSD per the datacenter).
The agent docs show the following shared libraries as needed. If anyone sees
a potential problem then please let me know!
libstc++-libc6.1-1.so.2
libcrypt.so.1
libpthread.so.0
libdl.so.2
libm.so.6
libc.so.6

if you do ctrl-v, the next keystroke will be input in literally. so, do
sed 's/ /<ctrl-v><enter>/'
When I do that, it types in a "^M". That method also works well for
using sed to insert tabs.

Hi John,
I had the same problem on this Puny Pentium2 == IBM model 300PL
with on-board IBM Crystal Sound[tm] ;) . It will be detected
during kernel init, then show the same channel timeout line
later on when you want to play something thru it.
For a quick test, assuming your kernel has acpi removed
or are using the GENERIC kernel: try the beastie menu option
that prevents acpi from loading.
Next, try disabling ACPI in your BIOS if possible. I think
the smart FBSD boot loader will detect that you don't have a
working ACPI and then will not load the related .ko modules.
In my case, it was a PC model that FBSD's ACPI support does
not like. Bein' how IBM themselves have dropped support for
this model, I'm positive they won't fix the BIOS. :(
(Why do I have it? State govmts are supposedly cutting
budgets, and I got what was left for this project in the
garage/warehouse before they surplus'd them ;) .
So, I turned off all ACPI functions in the BIOS, but kept
the APM stuff enabled, and also enabled the apm knobs so I
can still use poweroff/reboot shutdown commands etc.
After I discovered ACPI being the root of my problem, to
make it a permament 'fix', I took out the acpi stuff my
custom kernel, too, and added this to /boot/device.hints:
# let's disable this to see if Crystal Sound works:
hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"
# YES THAT WORKS - KEEP THIS LINE UNTIL THEY FIX ACPI Trigger/Edge Irq
problems!
I sent my last ACPI dmesg logs to the acpi mailing list
(hidden, I don't know where it is documented) to see if
they'd be willing to troubleshoot it. Still no response.
But I'm okay with just using APM.
FWIW the Crystal Sound feature was the only thing not working
with ACPI enabled. With it enabled, this PC seemed a bit faster.
I see a lot of committed updates for ACPI were done recently and
might give it another go, but not right now. ;)
Hope this helps.

Hi there,
I'm having tremendous difficulty obtaining anything other than a
system beep from my Crystal CS423B under FreeBSD 5.2.1.
In fact, I had problems with it under 5.1 as well!
The machine (for detailled information see
http://www.osegroup.com/support/insight/insight/en/products/desktops/ls500/l
s500.htm)
is a Mitsubishi Apricot LS500 with
Lightning BX motherboard, 350Mhz Pentium 2 & Crystal CS423B-KQ
chip (I'm looking at the mobo right now, it's also got marking
of ATAFX39820 underneath the sound chip name).
The card seems to be detected: a cat /dev/sndstat reveals the
following:
FreeBSD Audio Drivers (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0: <CS423x> at io 0x534 irq 5 drq 1:0 bufsz 4096 (1p/1r/4v
channels duplex default)
The relevant parts of /var/log/messages would most likely be:
zev kernel: pnpbios: Bad PnP BIOS data checksum
zen kernel: pcm0:<CS423x> at port 0x220-0x22f,0x388-0x38n,0x534-0
The appropriate additions to the kernel have been made
(currently:
device pcm
device csa
, though also tried have been
device pcm
device sba
, and
device pcm
to no discernible difference)
Attempting to test the soundsystem with something like MadPlay
by saying
madplay -o /dev/dsp0.1 01.mp3
or
madplay -o /dev/dspW0.1 01.mp3
results in the error message
pcm:0:virtual:0: Play interrupt timeout, channel dead
being sent to /var/log/messages and printed to console 1.
Subsequent attempts to use sound results in "invalid argument".
If it's any consolation, the sound does not appear to work under
Linux - at least, not Movix (http://movix.sourceforge.net) -
either. Win2k (when I used to use it.. Eurgh) needed drivers not
included in the OS.
Any help really would be appreciated! The only thing I've found
so far on the mailling lists are unresolved issues!
John
