Re: Fresh installation 9.1
Hi All, after using freebsd for 10 to 20 mins, Key board is getting locked. Before this problem , i have enabled ftpd and provided root login for ftp server access. after that I am facing this problem . but i revert back this root access. and i stopped the ftpd service. mouse is working properly. but key board is not responding properly. Please help me on this.

Sorry I am asking so many thinks. I am looking for a another help. What is static route for a IPV6 router? A static route is something I use for our IPv6 VPN clients in our net. All packets destined to the VPN clients are routed to the inside interface of the VPN router, the VPN router takes care of everything else, including wrapping the packets in the encryption layer and sending the resulting datagrams to the real clients somewhere out there in the world, back through the main router. How do i need to configure static route on FreeBSD router indicating another router's link local address as next HOP? Now I have a another router which is connected in same network with FreeBSD router. If clients on the far end of each of the two routers needs to communicate with one another, then the appropriate default gateway settings on each host and router should suffice. If three or more routers are connected somehow, then they each need to know about the prefixes on the other routers, and where to send the packets, i.e. the next hop, and let the next hop decide each packet's fate as the packets traverse each router link. This is where routing protocols such as RIP, OSPF, IS-IS, BGP, etc, come into play. I haven't looked into route6d(8), RIP6 routing protocol, but I'm sure it can be tamed to act as you please. Maybe you should look into Quagga and/or GNU Zebra. My network is simple enough, and I only need directly connected and static routes to make things happen. On the outside, towards our ISP, things are much more complicated. -- +---++ | Vennlig hilsen, | Best regards, | | Trond Endrestøl, | Trond Endrestøl, | | IT-ansvarlig, | System administrator, | | Fagskolen Innlandet, | Gjøvik Technical College, Norway, | | tlf. mob. 952 62 567, | Cellular...: +47 952 62 567, | | sentralbord 61 14 54 00. | Switchboard: +47 61 14 54 00. | +---++ ___ 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

Before this problem , i have enabled ftpd and provided root login for ftp server access. That is something you should _not_ do, especially not within a network you don't trust (see also: The Internet). Usually FTP access can't be trusted (too much plaintext), and especially for root this is a threat to security. Better use scp (SSH) for transfering files in an FTP-like way. after that I am facing this problem . but i revert back this root access. and i stopped the ftpd service. That is a good step regarding security. Still make sure your system hasn't been compromized. Also be sure to change your root password, because you _never_ know. :-) mouse is working properly. but key board is not responding properly. When this happens inside X, it sounds a bit familiar. Does the keyboard start working again when you move the mouse? I'm not sure if _this_ is still an issue: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/aei.html Make sure the keyboard is working as expected, for example by testing it in a non-X session (text mode terminal). -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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

Apart from Polytopon's good questions observations, such as Is that inside X? I'd also add 1 more question: Is that A) a PS2 [or older] direct keyboard ? eg on 8.1 dmesg: kbd1 at kbdmux0 atkbdc0: Keyboard controller (i8042) port 0x60,0x64 irq 1 on acpi0 atkbd0: AT Keyboard irq 1 on atkbdc0 eg on 9.1 dmesg kbd: new array size 4 kbd1 at kbdmux0 atkbdc0: Keyboard controller (i8042) port 0x60,0x64 irq 1 on acpi0 atkbd0: AT Keyboard irq 1 on atkbdc0 atkbd: the current kbd controller command byte 0067 atkbd: keyboard ID 0x41ab (2) kbd0 at atkbd0 kbd0: atkbd0, AT 101/102 (2), config:0x0, flags:0x3d eg on 9.1 devinfo atkbdc0 atkbd0 Or B) a PS2 keyboard on a USB converter ? eg on 9.1 dmesg ugen1.2: Semi Tech at usbus1 ukbd0: HID Keyboard on usbus1 kbd2 at ukbd0 kbd2: ukbd0, generic (0), config:0x0, flags:0x3d eg on 9.1 devinfo uhci1 usbus1 uhub1 ukbd0 Just yesterday I had a case (B) lock up on me on 8.2-Release it needed a reboot (or power off unplug) to reset it. It might or not even be a FreeBSD problem has an easy hardware solution, Hrkesh Sahu you dont say how many keyboards you tried, or on how many if any other op systems, You know keyboards use wildly different amounts of mA ? Could be your's is greedy near the limit ? (ive had some PCs dont like some keyboards) was room was hotter than normal (I had 2/3 pieces of hardware dies in hot spell here lately) Might be software or harsdware, we dont know. Hrkesh Sahu all others asking free advice should realise: The more you tell readers on a self help list, the more we readers can deduce, but we can't, don't not interested to mind read ;-) The less people tell us, the less likley readers are to bother to guess or ask questions to deduce answers. We're not paid support, we require people to work to help us help them. eg telling us what interesting bits of dmesg might show, which kernel you ran, if modified or generic, what /var/log/messages shows etc (which you can see via ssh to host from another PC, or after reboot, so you dont need keyboard to see why keyboard has failed, no Catch 22 ;-) What extras you might have installed later ? eg on an 8.2 I installed in /boot/loader.conf vboxdrv_load=YES /etc/rc.conf vboxnet_enable=YES that laptop worked just fine from remote, again just yesterday I neededto use acual keyboard (in X) noted respons was abysmal, maybe 5 or 10 seconds to echo. Theres so much you havent told us, we really dont know what youve done that may have been the problem. Even a beginner should ask what commands should I do to produce more diagnostics to help you help me ? Those that don't try hard to help us don't tend to get so much help.

I'm not at all familiar with Ubuntu or any other Linux distro for that matter. I admit, I did try out Debian/amd64 7.0.0 a couple of weeks ago, but I have far more experience with FreeBSD than anything else in the *nix world. Truth to be told, I regard most Linux distros as inferior compared to the *BSDs, due to the Linux distros forcing you to install a whole lot of bloat. It probably boils down to what level you are on, be it Joe Public or someone with more experience when it comes to computers and operating systems. Maybe I'm just misinformed and there exists a Linux distro or two letting the user/administrator chose what to install rather well.

You probably should create a ULA prefix or two, and assign these to your router interfaces. http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/ula/ might help you.

Could you please tell me Laptop1 ipv6 configuration details? as laptop auto configuration will generate the LL address for a auto ipv6 configuration. For Interface rl0 ipv6 address ifconfig_rl0_ipv6=inet6 fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::101 prefixlen 64 , what will be laptop ipv6 address? It depends solely on the operating system and whether IPv6 privacy is in effect. Normally, the client will perform stateless automatic address configuration (SLAAC). It goes pretty much like this: The router announces the 64 bit prefix, usually every 200 seconds, but the client may request a new announcement at any time. The client generates a 64 bit interface identifier based on its 48 bit MAC address. The client then concatenates the supplied prefix with the generated interface identifier. The client then performs duplicate address detection (DAD), and if everythings checks out, the client got its IPv6 address. Given this prefix fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::/64, and this MAC address 50:e5:49:41:4d:70. The client would then generated this interface id: 52e5:49ff:fe41:4d70. The Universal/Local bit of the MAC address is inverted, and FF:FE is placed at center. (It really ought to be FF:FF, but way back in time someone misread the IEEE standards regarding conversion from 48 bit MAC addresses to EUI64 format. This oversight doesn't really matter.) The same client would then aqcuire this IPv6 address: fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100:52e5:49ff:fe41:4d70, and perform DAD. The client gets its IPv6 default route/gateway from the router announcement. Of course, you may configure the IPv6 address and gateway manually on the client, say fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::1337/64 (client's address) and fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::101 (gateway's address).

Right now your system is running with link-local IPv6 addresses. You may view LL addresses as VLAN local. Packets to such addresses will never ever be forwarded by a router. Instead set up either official IPv6 addresses/subnets or create your own Unique Local Addresses (ULA) as I wrote previously about. Augment your /etc/rc.conf file with, say: ifconfig_rl0_ipv6=inet6 fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::101 prefixlen 64 You may assign the IPv6 address manually to avoid restarting the networking subsystem or the whole machine: ifconfig rl0 inet6 fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100::101 prefixlen 64 Next, create /etc/rtadvd.conf with the following contents: rl0:\ :addr=fd8f:d6d0:e6e7:100:::prefixlen#64: If you want IPv6 routing on the re0 interface, you need, say this, in /etc/rc.conf: ifconfig_re0_ipv6=inet6 fd44:13de:a366:200::1 prefixlen 64 Assign the IPv6 address manually using: ifconfig re0 inet6 fd44:13de:a366:200::1 prefixlen 64 And add this to /etc/rtadvd.conf: re0:\ :addr=fd44:13de:a366:200:::prefixlen#64: You'll need to restart rtadvd by issuing

Hi All, IPv4 Routing - I disabled the DHCP from rc.conf for both the interface. but still I am not able to route trafic from one interface to another. rc.conf --- hostname=idc-freebsd keymap=hy.armscii-8.kbd #ifconfig_re0=DHCP #ifconfig_rl0=DHCP dumpdev=NO ifconfig_rl0=inet 192.168.100.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 ifconfig_re0=inet 192.168.200.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 ipv6_activate_all_interfaces=YES gateway_enable=YES default_router=192.168.200.1 I am using FreeBSD - 9.1 Release version I need to communicate between two different subnets. Am i missing anything to enable freebsd as router? Do i need to add a route entry? If possible could you please share rc.conf file with IPv4 routing?
