The box just goes unresponsive, i can get a login prompt on the console, but it's unresponsive. I have to reboot it. This has occurred twice now and i'm starting to get concerned. I've ruled out ram, i recently replaced it's ram for an unrelated reason so i don't think that's it. If your situation is similar can you let me know what you tried? This is a different situation, I think ... first, I'm running 6.2-STABLE, as of about last week, so a much newer kernel then you are running ... and in my case, at least, I can still login to the machine using ssh and force a reboot remotely ... it doesn't seem to be a 'solid hang' ... if I were to hazard a guess as to what it feels like ... it feels like the network interface buffer has filled up, but isn't being released properly ... almost like a memory leak, but on the network ... if I leave it long enough, it will eventually require a tech to power cycle it, but if I catch it early enough, I can still get in to do a reboot ... But ... that said ... when you say 'get a login prompt on the console, but it's unresponse ... do you mean that you can actually type in a userid, and possibly passwd, but after that it just hangs? I will just add that I get this on an old 4-stable router box (for years). It is on an sf interface and I _thought_ it was due to a flaky hub. I got the sendto: no buffer space avail message on the incoming/outgoing interface to the router that was doing NAT and ipfw to our internal LANs. I resorted to writing a cron job that would try to ping the router at the other end of the sf interface and do an 'ifconfig sf0 down; ifconfig sf0 up' whenever the router at the other end could not be ping'd. Something like this: if ping -c 2 remote-router /dev/null; then /usr/bin/true else /sbin/ifconfig sf0 down /bin/sleep 1 /sbin/ifconfig sf0 up fi This router is running 4.11. Without the cronjob, the network would fail every week or two. I gave up trying to figure out what the real problem was. -- DE ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

IT8212F PCI Raid Card
Hi, Does FreeBSD support an IT8212F based PCI Raid card? I've added one to a freeBSD 6.2-stable install and the card shows in dmesg as pci2: ACPI PCI bus on pcib2 atapci0: ITE IT8212F UDMA133 controller port 0xbc00-0xbc07,0xb800-0xb803,0xb400- 0xb407,0xb000- 0xb003,0xbe00-0xbe0f irq 10 at device 1.0 on pci2 ata2: ATA channel 0 on atapci0 ata3: ATA channel 1 on atapci0 as well as listed in pciconf -lv as [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1:0: class=0x010400 card=0x chip=0x82121283 rev=0x13 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Integrated Technology Express (ITE) Inc' device = 'GigaRAID ATA 133 RAID controller RAID-Controller on Gigabyte 7NNXP' class = mass storage subclass = RAID However /dev/ is void of any new drive entries. I've tried configuring the raid card as simply IDE which should (afaik) show the two drives as just normal extra IDE drives. I've also tried the card set in raid 1 mode. I've attached the full dmesg, pciconf and device listing if it's of any help. In the listing, ad0 is my boot drive attached to the motherboards built in IDE controller. Then two 7 gig drives are attached for testing to the raid controller card. Am I missing something in configuring this card? Does the GENERIC kernel support it by default? Any extra utils or modules I need to load that I'm not aware of? I spent a fair amount of time yesterday googling this card and looking for any config options I may have missed, from what I've read it appears that freeBSD _should_ support it, but I've seen a few posts from people with similar issues to the above, so I'm not 100% certain.

GELI versus GBDE?
The Handbook contains descriptions of GELI and GBDE for encrypting disk partitions; will both of these techniques remain available into the future? The fact that there are two implies (to me) that one may be on the way out, in preference of the other. In src/sys/geom/eli (RELENG_6) the oldest GELI sources are younger than the youngest GBDE stuff in src/sys/geom/bde. Is GBDE falling by the wayside in favor of GELI?
