Thank you PC-BSD is a good place to start; it makes installation easy. I prefer running Windows in a VM under VirtualBox to dual-booting. Switching between the two is much faster, and you can make the host file system visible to the guest with Samba. The only drawback of this is performance. Or you have a very powerful machine :-) The VM guests run pretty quick, at least if the host CPU has VT-x or AMD-V. Check the BIOS, Intel VT-x is sometimes disabled there. I have not benchmarked but would estimate it to be 80-90% equivalent CPU speed, maybe a bit less for disk I/O depending on the virtual disk type. Windows in a VM also has the benefit of being able to move the VM to a different host without having to reinstall the operating system in the VM. But overall, the best feature is that the VM host and guest run at the same time. ___ 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"

There are several methods for upgrading systems and they essentially break down into two categories - binary or source. I am fairly unfamiliar with the binary approaches as I have always used the source-based method. I believe one caveat with the binary method is it only works with the GENERIC (the original kernel from the base install) kernel, so if you desire to run custom kernels the source upgrade process may be a better way to go. The main point to be aware of is the ABI changes (and potential breakages) which occur when changing major version numbers, e.g., for example when going from 7.x version to 8.x version. When doing a source based upgrade (also known as "the make buildworld kernel installxxx..." dance) from one major version to the next you will need to rebuild all installed ports immediately after (and indeed as part of) so that they will then be linked against the new major versions' libraries. Mostly this process is driven by the need to upgrade, and there are actually compatibility shims which allow for running a previous version of an application (let's say an app limited to run only on 6.x or 7.x) on the newer operating system version. An example would be to install the /usrports/misc/compat7x port on an 8.x machine in order to support an app designed for 7.x. Although this is only an example for illustrative purposes, it also may _not_ be applicable in your situation as it provides compatibility shims for 7.3. So there are any number of available avenues open for you to choose from, and some reading on the upgrade procedures covered in the Handbook might be a good way to become more familiar in order to make a more informed decision on exactly which may be the best for your specific situation. In addition to all the other upgrade methodologies which might actually allow for you to do an actual "downgrade" successfully, you may also wish to consider starting from scratch. I would tend to proceed in this direction if I was taking over a mess someone else had created. Many times a fresh OS can be installed, the application installed, and the previous configuration files and data can simply be copied to the new install. This way you know everything about the machine you are now responsible for as opposed to never knowing for sure everything your predecessor may have screwed up. First thing I do is study the situation and not make any changes to anything until I've figured out exactly what I need to do. Backups of all data is essential; I always dump everything so I can always recover back to a known good if something goes terribly wrong. First and foremost question I have is concerning the statement: "And even why it shall be 7.2 or 7.1 and nothing newer. " We really need to understand this completely first. More details on this may be useful for potentially providing better advice. -Mike PS: I don't like any app which absolutely says it 'requires' a version of an operating system which may not receive security updates and whose End-of- Life may expire before I need to stop relying on this application. Whenever I've seen this in the past it has most often been associated with bad and defective coding by whoever wrote the app, and nursing it along only pushed off into the future actually dealing with the problem of a broken app. ___ 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"

What they are trying to do is reduce the chance that a SM will create a system where anyone in the world can upload stuff and then, without any checking of the stuff, anyone in the world can download it.Eg. They are trying to force you to at least notice the file before making it available for download. This is to reduce the incidence of evil minded creatures using your machine for their despicable plots of distributing dangerous files and software around the net. So, what you are supposed to do is make two separate directories - one for upload and one for download. Then you check each uploaded file for mal-ware before moving it to the download space with the needed permissions. You can use the same directory, but do not leave out the step of checking the file content before setting permissions to allow download. But, it is better to use separate directories so people doing a download don't have to wade through the swamp of uploaded, and not approved/checked stuff. Of course, some people will point out that FTP is on the outs now anyway and will recommend other ways of doing things. Pay attention to that. But, sometimes FTP still fills a need. jerry > > I'd be very appreciative for any help. > > Best regards > > Gabriel Dragffy > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > ___ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

The > FreeBSD handbook says it doesn't recommend allowing anon users to d/load > files uploaded anonymously, however I would still like to implement this. The idea here is to stop your FTP server being used as a warez site. So the script kiddies cannot upload their cracked software and dubious copies of this that and the other and then send all their little friends along to download that stuff from you. Leave a mis-configured FTP server on the net and it will be discovered and used for this purpose within a week or so. The best approaches are these: i) Don't use FTP at all. FTP is an archaic protocol, hard to firewall correctly and that sends passwords across the net in plain text. The secure version 'FTPS' is not supported by the ftpd in the base system. Instead consider such things as SFTP (which is an SSH client which behaves like FTP), WebDAV over HTTPS (HTTP PUT) or a form based upload CGI script (HTTP POST), rsync over SSH. etc. ii) If you have to use FTP, then create individual user FTP accounts so you have some accountability as to who is doing what. Run the FTP service in a chroot or jail and make sure the FTP password file is distinct from the normal password file. iii) If you have to provide incoming anonymous FTP then don't automatically make any uploaded files available for download. Task a person with reviewing what was uploaded and then moving it into an appropriate place in your filesystem where it can be downloaded from. Again, be sure to run FTP chroot'ed or jailed.

For eg: $ some_process & $ disown And if you are using zsh there it is much easier: $ some_process &! And when you exit, the processes will not be killed.

Everything runs ok and it seems like the module is installed. There is only one problem, in the httpd.conf there is a LoadModule php5_module refering to libexec/apache/libphp5.so. The library libphp5.so is not made by the install and so my appache will not start with the php5 enabled. What is wrong and what can i do to let the install make the libphp5.so. php5-session is a "sub-port" if you will; it's supposed to be an extension to /usr/ports/lang/php5. IIRC, this was "split out" from PHP5 quite some time ago. So, you should *probably* install /usr/ports/lang/php5 first, and then install the php5-session port; or, even better, install lang/php5 and then lang/php5-extensions, and you can get sessions and all other kinds of 'neat stuff', too.

ISP -- modem -- rl0 -- fbsd -- sis0 -- LAN The kernal obviously has the drivers up and running (else the output of ifconfig wouldn't have shown the interfaces) For _some_ reason, rl0 is showing a status of "no carrier." This tells me one of two things... 1. The cable between rl0 and the modem is not connected. 2. The cable is faulty. If the NIC has lights on it, you should be able to tell by the status light on the NIC. > > god# more /etc/rc.conf > > gateway_enable="YES" > hostname="god.mshome.net" > inetd_enable="YES" > sendmail_enable="NO" > sshd_enable="YES" > ifconfig_sis0="inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" > sendmail_enable="YES" > nfs_server_enable="NO" > sshd_enable="YES" > ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0" > defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" > linux_enable="YES" > sendmail_enable="NONE" > nis_server_enable="YES" > nis_client_enable="NO" > rpcbind_enable="YES" > ifconfig_sis0="DHCP" > hostname="god.mshome.net" > Lots of repeats/changes, but let's see... You have DHCP set up on sis0, but you do not have DHCP set up on rl0. Is there a reason for this? I always ran DHCP and let the ISP cough up all the info the server needs to connect (such as default router). What it _looks_ like you've done is specify local IP addresses to both network cards, and then tried to get the server to try to connect to the ISP through the internal NIC. I _think_ what you want to do in this case is as follows: 1. Change the line that says: ifconfig_sis0="DHCP" so that is says: ifconfig_rl0="DHCP" This way, your internal network will be able to communicate with the server again, and dhclient will attempt to get the info from your ISP. 2. Go through the rc.conf file and remove repeated and/or changed lines. Make sure that you don't delete the lines you want -- only the ones that are unnecessary. For example, if the following three lines are in rc.conf, then _only_ the last is applicable. sendmail_enable="YES" sendmail_enable="NO" sendmail_enable="NONE" I know it may sound picky, but if you cleaned the file up a bit, you'll probably see what's going on with more clarity. 3. Remove the line that says: defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" That should take care of rc.conf > god# more /etc/hosts > > ::1 localhost.mshome.net localhost > > 127.0.0.1 localhost.mshome.net localhost > 192.168.1.2 god.mshome.net god > 192.168.1.2 god.mshome.net. > no problems there... > > dmesg -a gives a load of stuff... do you really want me > to post all that? Actually, not in this case... I just wanted to make sure that your system was picking up on the NICs, and your output from ifconfig shows that it had no problem with it. Let me know how it goes.

If this is indeed the case then this might explain things such as why your server say it's invalid. Where in the diagram is 80.229.247.29? 2nd: The default router is the address where you send your traffic to hosts that are not directly on your network. If you set this to yourself then all traffic you send to the Internet newer leave your box. On your BSD box default router should be the ip of your ISP. This is normally set automatically by dhclient, or provided by your ISP to type in. Just jo eliminate any confusion, since your network config has been changed by running 'dhclient rl0', provide output from the following commands: # ifconfig -a # route -v get default # ping # arp -a should be shown by the route command. ping will try to ping the router, alternatively you can try 'arping ' which will work even if ping is blocked (if you have arping installed). and also, # grep dhclient /var/log/messages (you may remove redundant information, but besure to include the last entries). Check that dhclient is running. Stop it and run 'dhclient rl0' again and see if things are any different. If so, send the changes also.

You don't need a router. I've had a setup very similar to
yours in the past (now, I'm on broadband and use OpenBSD
for my router/firewall/filter)... Any rate, I FreeBSD will
make an excellent router/more for you. It just takes a
learning process.
Provide the outputs from the "uname -a", "dmesg -a",
"ifconfig -a", "cat /etc/rc.conf", cat "/etc/hosts"
commands. If you have compiled and installed a custom
kernel, then also provide the kernel ("cat
"/sys/i386/conf/KERN.NAME.GOES.HERE").
There are many possibilities for the server not talking to
the modem, and it's impossible for anyone on this list to
narrow those possibilities down unless you provide a
reasonable amount of information.

Do you have your A-DSL line up with that modem? Means, can you ping your providers nameserver e. g. from the FreeBSD box?

Re: Hello List
Thing is, it should be so straightforward, but I've stumped loads of people with it. I have a small home network, atm an XP PC, a XP laptop, and the FreeBSD 5.1 machine. I am connected to the internet with an unknown modem from my ISP. I've bought a D-Link 300 and attched it to the FreeBSD Box. I want to use that to connect to my ADSL, and have the rest of the network share the connction. Part of the network is wireless, the rest standard Cat5 with a 4 port Netgear hub. I can't get it to work. Obviously that ain't enough details, what else do I need to post?

It probably means that you have connected both RL0 and RL1 to the same network. On RL1 you have selected an IP address in the 192.168.10.X range, so FreeBSD expects packets in the 192.168.10.x-range to arrive at RL1.

Basically you add a line into your kernel configuration file, in the case of your sound card device pcm and recompile the kernel. That simple, just make sure you read the handbook section. With reguards to your video problems, you really need to provide more information. usually - what you see - paste the contents of /etc/X11/XF86Config - paste the contents of /var/log/XFree86.0.log and this should help in you getting a answer.

Start by reading the Porter's Handbook -- http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/index.html This will tell you how to create the port directory with it's Makefile, pkg-descr and pkg-plist (and possibly other) files. Once you've developed a port skeleton that works correctly and that portlint(1) is happy with, you can submit it via send-pr(1) -- see section 2.6 of the Porter's Handbook for details. It's a good thing to volunteer to be the port's Maintainer as well as just submitting it. If you're thinking of working on ports, try subscribing to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] and maybe [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing lists for a bit to get an idea of what's involved.

I can't seem to find it. It's supposed to be the base/ directory. Can you please file a PR showing the location of the incorrect documentation? Kris msg16214/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

You can during installation say that you want to use the FreeBSD
bootmanager. If you reset the computer you will be given the choice
on what to boot.

The closest thing there is to that is the CGI interface to the CVS repository at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/#dirlist That's not really feasible for downloading quantities of source code. Instead, use cvsup to pull the appropriate sources out of one of the many copies of the FreeBSd CVS repository. Here's how to use cvsup: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html which has a list of hand cvsup mirror sites. Unfortunately there seems to be no FreeBSD cvsup mirror in India but I'm sure you can find one relatively near by in network terms. To obtain the sources for 4.3-RELEASE, use a supfile like this: *default host=cvsup.jp.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_3_0_RELEASE *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress src-all This is based on the 'stable-supfile' in /usr/share/examples/cvsup --- you may find some interest in the other supfiles in there.
