pppd: Could not determine remote IP address
Hello, With the helping hand of someone in freebsd-mobile list I've hacked the 'uftdi' driver to support a PCMCIA card provided by Vodafone for UMTS. The card works now as it should but the IPCP negotiating of the pppd 2.3.11 (from ports collection) ends up in: ... sent [IPCP ConfReq id=0x6 addr 10.227.149.188] rcvd [IPCP ConfReq id=0x4b] sent [IPCP ConfAck id=0x4b] rcvd [IPCP ConfAck id=0x6 addr 10.227.149.188] Could not determine remote IP address sent [IPCP TermReq id=0x7 Could not determine remote IP address] rcvd [IPCP TermAck id=0x7] I picked up another Linux driven notebook to compare it with Linux (because I've used the same PCMCIA card in Linux for some monthes) and it turned out that the IPCP negotiating is ending up the same way but the Linux pppd picks up some guessed remote IP address and just put this into the ppp0 interface and the things are fine: rcvd [IPCP ConfReq id=0x4] sent [IPCP ConfNak id=0x4 addr 0.0.0.0] rcvd [IPCP ConfNak id=0x4 addr 10.227.222.211 ms-dns1 139.7.30.125 ms-dns3 139.7.30.126] sent [IPCP ConfReq id=0x5 addr 10.227.222.211 ms-dns1 139.7.30.125 ms-dns3 139.7.30.126] rcvd [IPCP ConfAck id=0x5 addr 10.227.222.211 ms-dns1 139.7.30.125 ms-dns3 139.7.30.126] rcvd [IPCP ConfReq id=0x5] sent [IPCP ConfAck id=0x5] Could not determine remote IP address: defaulting to 10.64.64.64 local IP address 10.227.222.211 remote IP address 10.64.64.64 # ifconfig ppp0 ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:10.227.222.211 P-t-P:10.64.64.64 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:8 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:100 (100.0 b) TX bytes:139 (139.0 b) It seems that this feature does not exist in FreeBSD's pppd or I'm missing something else?

6.0-BETA5, kismet iwi ...
Hi list, I've just upgraded my laptop to 6.0-BETA5, hoping I finally would be able to have functional wireless.. things didn't go quite as I expected, tho. My wireless card is an Intel 2200BG, supported on FreeBSD by the iwi driver. I had it installed prior to upgrading by downloading from http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw/ , but removed it and added device iwi to the 6.0 kernel instead. Now it always complains about iwi0: Please load firmware. So, I went to damien's site again, only to find that the download link had been removed, and a reference to ports/net/iwi-firmware was there instead. I've tried to install the port, and it says I've already got iwi(4) support, and won't let install anything. I'm left with a iwi0 that has no firmware, an so is worthless. Is the firmware somewhere in the base 6.0 system ? The other problem is kismet. Looking at the (poor) kismet documentation, the best I could get from it was that I needed to define radiotap_bsd_x as my capture source on kismet.conf. The documentation isn't clear about what X is, so I've tried: - radiotap_bsd_x - radiotap_bsd_g - radiotap_fbsd_x - radiotap_fbsd_g Either way, it says the capture type is unknown. Then I tried with capture type ipw2200, and kismet said it wasn't built. So.. where is the iwi firmware or where can I download it (pkg_add -r iwi-firmware doesn't work btw), and how to make kismet happy about my iwi0 card ?

About SnapShot
Hi Everybody , Today I try to learn snapshot with FreeBSD 5.4 , perfect it's working very fest . I wonder something if somebody have knowledge about snapshot or have a documentation about it I will be happy. First I don't understand How system can take snapshot quickly I tried it on new installed freebsd 5.4 and when I gave a command on console snapshot file created in a second which 256MB , I wonder How fast will be on bigger partitions. Anybody know How snapshot tecnology is working ? Because it's creating an single file and it's 256 mb , it's not possible to copy /var folder to another folder in a second ... Second Why I can't create snapshot file on different directory , I tried to linking but it didn't work ! And anyway Does it possible to back from snapshot file to original portion ... I mean snapshot is creating only one file When I want to backI have to mount it to system and copy back files Im asking without copying something and mouting snapshot file can I make a restore ?

Re: PHP4 PHP5 on same server?

I google around but didn't find much on this topic ... :( m We have them as mod with two chrooted Apache servers on two different IPs. Thanks for the reply. From doing some more research list night, my understanding is that the php binary is the whole kit and kaboodle, so if I - build PHP4 from source and - configure it to look in a different spot for extensions, then I should be able to use PHP4 and PHP5 via fastcgi on a per-vhost basis. I just won't be able to rely on ports for updates to PHP4. m I found a way to do it where I can install both php instances from ports. In my case I am using php5-cli (command line interpreter) as well as php5-cgi (compiled for fast cgi) both installed from ports. php5-cli is installed into the normal directories under /usr/local. php5-cgi is installed into an alternate base directory /usr/local/alt. Basically, you can use the PREFIX environment variable to tell the ports system to use an alternate base directory for installation. This works with portupgrade as well. Here are some notes that I took when I was setting this up. Note that I'm using portupgrade (hence the reference to /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf)... == Install PHP5 with fastcgi support == In order to have an alternative fastcgi version of php, we need to install it to an alternate location. First this to /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf: {{{ MAKE_ARGS { 'php5-cgi*' = 'WITH_APACHE2=yes WITH_FASTCGI=yes' } }}} Assuming that we already have php5 for cli and apache installed, we can install an alternate fastcgi enabled version like this: {{{ $ su - $ mkdir /usr/local/alt $ export PREFIX=/usr/local/alt $ script /usr/local/alt/install.log $ portupgrade -pNi www/php5-cgi $ exit # (exit script) $ exit # (exit su) }}} There can be a few little problems with this process. Here is the preliminary report: Modules not loaded php5-cgi installed fine into the alternate prefix, but it didn't know about any of the extensions (modules) that the main php install had. To fix this, I pointed the new php5-cgi at the main php instance's modules. '''I believe that this will only work if both instances of php5 are the exact same version''' Here is what I did: {{{ $ cd /usr/local/alt/etc # /usr/local/etc/php is a directory that contains an 'extensions.ini' file. # The 'extensions.ini' file lists the extensions that should be loaded. $ ln -s /usr/local/etc/php php }}} - Sam Nilsson ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

USB not working in 6.0-BETA5
FreeBSD-6.0 BETA5 My USB does not work, as far as I can tell. When I was installing my USB mouse (Logitech MX300) did not work, I figured no big deal, so I used a USB-PS/2 adapter. Later I tried using my iPod, which worked okay in 5.4REL, but I later gave that up. After two other devices, a camera and a printer that had both worked in 5.4REL, did not work in this release, I am now assuming USB is not working at all, and yes, all USB devices are enabled in my kernel.

This isn't support, per se --- it's a mailing list. But, it's the primary option ;-) Are you sure Apache is running? Sorry for what may seem like a dumb question, but the error message you quote is exactly what you see, on many browsers, when httpd is not running. To check is Apache is running, try: $ps -aux | grep httpd You should see multiple lines (Maybe 4, 5, or more) that show an httpd process is listening. Another way to go about this would be to run `netstat -anf inet`, and looking for a entry mentioning port 80 and LISTEN. If you can verify that Apache is indeed running, then I might test resolution of the localhost name. But, it's much more likely that you can resolve localhost fine, but Apache isn't listening on port 80.

If such a thing has actually been done by someone here, I'll try harder. Thanks, Jason C. Wells I haven't really used 6.x at all, but I'm assuming it's pretty similar if not the same as 5.x. There is great documentation on how to set up a sound card here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html What you probably want to do is to load the snd_driver metadriver as a kernel module to see which driver works with your soundcard: # kldload snd_driver Then, to find out which driver it loaded: # cat /dev/sndstat You can either leave it as a module and load it at startup as the handbook explains, or you can compile that driver into the kernel which the soundcard setup chapter also documents well. I always do the latter but I'm sure the module would work fine too. By the way, ALSA is for Linux (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture), so those drivers won't work on FreeBSD. -Mark ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
