Re: Mbuf Clusters on 4.8
John Bdckstrand wrote: Ive been googling quite a bit now for problems with running out of mbuf clusters. Im basically sending a 30k datachunk down 1000-4000 connections, but 1000 is more than enough to quickly fill upp 8192 mbuf clusters. I also tried setting maximum amount of mbuf clusters to 65536, but that only made the box hard-wire 86MB of 96MB RAM, making it just as unsuable as a dead machine. It isn't the amount data you are sending but the overhead required for each network connection. I would recommend adding more RAM. Bump it up to 256MB. With mbuf set at 65536 and using 86MB, you should still have plenty left for your application. If that doesn't solve your problem or you can't add more memory, then you'll want to look at controling the number of simultaneous connections to a number that your box can handle. Of course, when the machine runs out of mbuf clusters, it dies. I also found this with google: Finally, the fact that FreeBSD 3.x panics when it runs out of mbuf clusters is a well-known problem. The solution is to not let it run out of mbuf clusters by configuring a sufficient number for them. From this it sounds as it is a problem that should be fixed, but it obviously isnt in 4.8. Is this behaviour now considered acceptable? And if so, doesnt this make FreeBSD extremely easy to kill using a simple DOS-attack? Is this fixed in any way on 5.1? Yup, that is what DoS attack is... exhaustion of one or more resources of the victim. P2P software is an easy way to exhaust mbuf buffers on a box. P2P software(e.g. edonkey) can be a useful network stress tool; opens lots of connections and pushes a lot of data. My experience with mbuf exhaustion on a 4-stable boxes has been the box basically loses network connectivty until it can recover some buffers. The box is still responsive from the console and killing the offending application from the console will free up the mbufs and restore network connectivity. good luck, greg ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: FreeBSD 5.0 will not boot
Jd wrote: Hi everyone, I released turned to FreeBSD simply because I am discouraged with windows and there security scheme (did you guys see the document microsoft wrote about how to stop windows from sending out info about your computer onto the net? it's freaking 250 pages, and that doesn't cover all the xtra exploits that can come in your computer). Anyways, I recently tried 4.8 rc2, and it worked like a charm. So I wanted to try 5.0...that was a problem. Unfortunately, 5.0 won't boot for me. I go through the installation procedure without a glitch. But then, when comes first boot, after the initial message (when you have a 10 second delay and you push enter) all I get is hex being dumped to my screen, and alot of it. Now I think I read somewhere that FreeBSD5.0 now comes with a splash screen when it boots. I have a geforce ti4200. To make X work (under 4.8) I needed to get the nvidia drivers, would this affect anything? If so, how do I get to install those drivers before I can get a first boot? (I tried booting from the cd, and getting a shell, but I can't even 'ls' from that shell) If it hurts when you do that, don't do that. :) Just run 4.8, 5.0 is still beta code. If you're still interested in trying 5.0... first see if you can get it run without X windows. Instead of pressing the enter key, press the any key to get a boot prompt and then type 'boot -s' to boot into single user mode. If you can boot into single user mode, then you know the OS can boot. And problem is most likely with getting X to run. Don't know how to really explain how to trouble-shoot X windows problems. But you might want to try using the stock nvidia driver or the stock vga driver that comes with X before attempting to using the drivers provided by nvidia(not sure those work with 5.0 anyways). Comment out the line in /etc/ttys that contains xdm -nodaemon to keep freebsd from starting X windows at boot-up. Make sure at least ttyv0 is uncommented, so you'll get a console prompt. But since you're new to freebsd, I suggest sticking with 4.8 and getting a feel for it. This will give you a stable platform to learn with and an idea of how to trouble-shoot problems.

What i am looking into is to setup pipes for each dial-in user (for QoS/shaping). And I was kind of hoping this was something i could control in ppp without having to reinsert new rules every time a user logged in. Anyone ever used this feature or know anything about it? Awww, dial-up is such low bandwidth why bother further limiting the user's available bandwidth? ;) You could do general shaping for specific services(e.g. http) by using pipes on the lan attached nic. Something like: ipfw add 1000 pipe 80 tcp from ppp network to any 80 out via lan nic For individual ppp users/connections the options are probably(I haven't done any of this): 1) assign general traffic shaping pipe to ppp interfaces by specifying the interface with the firewall rule (e.g. ipfw add 1000 pipe 100 ip from any to any via ppp0) 2) assign static addresses to the users and adjust rules as needed 3) dynamically addremove rules... I'll guess as part of ppplogin script I'm not sure there is much value in applying traffic shaping rules/pipes to individual ppp interfaces. The total available bandwidth for each ppp connection is pretty low and it is already dedicated to just that one user anyways.

Re: Freebsd 4.6 stable
Kevin Miller posted a possible solution for this type of problem earlier. From his email ~~~ if you hit a key (other than Enter) at the bootloader prompt during CD boot, and type: set hw.ata.atapi_dma=1 it should let you it install. ~~~ Doug Barton also posted a similar email. He suggested the following... hw.ata.ata_dma=1 hw.ata.atapi_dma=1 So, it looks like set hw.ata.atapi_dma to 1 and if that doesn't work set both hw.ata.ata_dma hw.ata.atapi_dma to 1 and retry. So far, it looks like AOpen CD-Rom drives need hw.ata.atapi_dma set to 1 for things to jive right. Then after fbsd 4.6 is installed you'll need to add the set line to your /boot/loader.conf.
