The FreeBSD Handbook includes a section on configuring ftpd. There's also a manual for ftpd itself (see http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ftpd). Is that what you're looking for? Normally, an FTP client can use any directory (folder) on the server if it's logging in as a normal user, or any directory under the home directory if it's logging in as an anonymous user. These details are covered in the ftpd manual page. You shouldn't have any trouble creating such a directory with no spaces in its name.

Quoth d...@safeport.com on Wednesday, 13 October 2010: It appears (hopefully) that support for this may appear in FreeBSD 9. I infer that some kernel support for DRM involves kernel support (http://wiki.freebsd.org/DriDrivers) if so I think thats really too bad as all the ~400 pieces of Xorg which develop at their own pace makes this a hard (or at least delicate) process for the kernel team to support Xorg. Anyway this chip is sorta supported by the vesa driver with apparently the only resolutions supported being 1024x768 and 800x600. That really too bad (for me) as the video I have supports 1600x900, 1440x900, 1366x768, 1360x768, 1280x800, 1280x768, and 1280x720.

b. f. wrote: #How can I mount this disc ? Does udf.ko support this format ? I don't often use memory disks, so I'm not quite sure what is going wrong here. You could try configuring it and mounting it as read-only, to see if that helps. But you should be aware that FreeBSD does not support _all_ UDF filesystems, only some of them, and there were some shortcomings with the earlier implementation of udf.ko that you are using. For more information, see for example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Disk_Format So your disk image, if it really has an intact and valid UDF filesystem, may still be unmountable even if you are doing everything properly. I would suggest that you install the sysutils/udfclient port or package, and use it to try to read the disk image. It supports a slightly wider range of UDF filesystems than the kernel module, and you don't have to go to the trouble of mounting the disk image to read it. Of course, if you need to mount it, you could try dumping it to a different filesystem and then mounting it as a memory disk or otherwise. If that doesn't work, then it may be easiest to use the native tools in some other OS (e.g., NetBSD, Vista ... ) b. I'm disappointed that FreeBSD mount_udf doesn't support this disc. to those trying: the solution is to use udfclient and browse that way. Alternatively there is a refuse package that makes UDFclient into a FS to mount. Do not be deterred by the complicated first-level directory : 97505d80MS UDFBridge:UDF Volume:GRC1CULXFRER_EN_DVD:GRC1CULXFRER_EN_#503F Yes, there are spaces in it, you'll want to quote it to access it properly. ___ 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

Re: Support for Stallion Serial Controllers in FreeBSD 7
From some reading I have been doing including here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/console-server/setting-up-server.html ...I have been given to understand that FreeBSD supports Stallion multiport serial cards, provided that I enable it in the kernel. However, the link in the document above to stl comes up with nothing, I can find no other references doing a site search and doing: grep -r -i stallion * We still have an old FreeBSD 4.11-RELEASE-p26 machine lying around only because it's using those Stallion multiport serial cards. It's working, but it's quite annoying to keep such an old FreeBSD version online. We had to isolate this machine into it's own network DMZ since version 4.11 isn't covered by the FreeBSD Security team. To get around this problem, we recently built another console server with a Digi Digiboard PCI PC/Xem card on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p12. It's working great, so we're going to ditch the old Stallion cards. Unless of course someone ports the stl(4) driver to FreeBSD 7.x If you'd like to read the documentation on how I've setup the console server with both the Digi board and the Stallion cards, check http://wiki.zerocatastrophe.com/wiki/UNIX/FreeBSD/ConsoleServer HTH, David -- David Robillard UNIX systems administrator Oracle DBA CISSP, RHCE Sun Certified Security Administrator Montreal: +1 514 966 0122 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No, P4 and Celeron are not 80386 processors. They are descended from the 80386 and belong to the i386 *family* of processors, which is a slightly different thing. What has been removed from 6.0 is the ability to run on an *actual* 80386 CPU. They were state of the art in the late 80's, but that is a while ago. If your computer has a clock frequency of 50 MHz or more, it is almost certainly not using a real 80386. (If I remember correctly they were only available in speeds ranging from 16 MHz to 40 MHz.) FreeBSD 6.0 should run fine on any Intel CPU from the original Pentium and onwards. (Also on an 80486, if it has an hardware FPU - either built in or external.) -- Insert your favourite quote here.

IANAE, so please hang on in case someone (who likely isn't sitting at their desk on a Sunday afternoon) knowledgeable comes along; however, I see no mention of i915 either in the manpage for fxp(4), nor can I grep Alviso or i915 in any files under /src/sys/pci or /src/sys/net. Google doesn't turn up much, either. The thing is pretty new, so I'd wonder if it's supported. You can definitely take a look at the HCL at the website. I'll hope for your sake it is --- like I said, IANAE. But, I do wonder...

RE: Support for PERC4e/Di and 4e/Si
Martin and all,
Thanks for your help. I found a patch in the freebsd-stable mailing
list archive that adds the PCI-IDs to amr_pci.c. For some reason the
patch would not apply correctly to my 4.10-stable-20040818-jpsnap

have you tried booting from the first CD. I think the floppy based
kernel is cut down a little to save space, so it may not have the
required driver on it.
If you can't boot from the CD (like bios won't support it), you'll have
to build you own floppy images with the perc 4e driver in that kernel.
See the hnadbook for how to do this..

About a year ago I bought a set of two Escalades and placed them in NetBSD machines. I believe the driver is a port from the FreeBSD version. It has worked like a charm, starting I installed proper cabling. Until that time, I received various array errors, but nothing that damaged data. Switching to the ATA cables 3ware offers, the problem went away. From several people (mainly on the NetBSD lists), I heard similar reports that the Escalade 6xxx and 7xxx are sensitive to the ATA cables you use. Apart from that, the Escalades are worth the expense. My main issue here was lacking a budget for them.

RE: Support for affordable S-ATA RAID controllers (xs4)
The 3ware cards are quite expensive, according to the pricing lists I've seen so far. I wonder if the 8506-card mentioned in another post also works in 32bit PCI slots. Otherwise, I'd need a Xeon board. But that's another post in the thread. 3Ware cards are expensive, but you get what you pay for. Whatever code they have to optimize the disk use works wonders. I also believe the price is reasonable given its hardware RAID5. BE AWARE however (found this out the hard way), their performance optimizing code only works on the FIRST volume. Shouldn't be an issue with a 4-6 port card, but when you use 200gb+ drives on a 12 port card, you end up over the 2TB volume limit and the second volume is slow as molassas...

Is there anyone with experience with the Adaptec 1210 or Promise S150 cards or are they unsupported. If unsupported, is there anyone with advice of affordable alternative S-ATA RAID controllers?

Hi there Jon, Previous correspondence from jon (14:22 4-1-2004 -0800): On Sun, 2004-01-04 at 14:09, Rogier Krieger wrote: controller and a Promise S150 TX2Plus RAID which 2003 atapci0: Promise PDC20319 SATA150 controller thanks for checking. One thing I still wonder about, though: do you have the RAID enabled version for your Promise controller? If so, I guess it's a match (and I'm glad it works well).

Re: Support for affordable S-ATA RAID controllers (xs4)
Previous correspondence from Subhro (01:06 5-1-2004 +0530): What is the amount of money you would like to shell out for the card? As I mentioned, it's supposed to be relatively cheap. Say 50 to 100 EUR. (US$ 65 - 125 as present rates). I should've given the figure in my first message. Sorry for that. do you have any good reason for going for SATA and not SCSI (if you need speed) and ATA (i.e. P-ATA [...] I intend to use two WD Raptor S-ATA discs for the machine. From what we've seen so far, their performance is quite remarkable. The 3ware cards are quite expensive, according to the pricing lists I've seen so far. I wonder if the 8506-card mentioned in another post also works in 32bit PCI slots. Otherwise, I'd need a Xeon board. But that's another post in the thread.

Re: Support for 3ware Escalade 8500 Series
I've not played with the 8000 series yet, but I have had great success with the 6000/7000 series. What kind of problem are you having?
