Slow down bud, your doing to many things at the same time and missing
critical steps.
Lets start from the top. Your sup file should look like this:
*default host=cvsup5.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_11
*default delete use-rel-suffix

Normally you have at least two sup files, one for the system and the
other(s) for everything else.
After you re-cvsup you need to buildworld, not the kernel. here are
the general steps:
1. build world.
2. build kernel, use the generic kernel!!
3. install kernel.
4. reboot.
5. do a basic test of the system. if basic things such as; ls, cd,
more, and grep work then...
6. drop into single user mode ('shutdown now')
7. install world.
8. run mergemaster.
9. reboot.
10. Test out new system.
11. make and install your custom kernel, don't use your old custom
config file, make a new one based on the, new, generic kernel config
file!!
12. cvsup ports src.
13. update / install new ports.

CARP VLAN MTU question
Hi, When setting CARP over VLAN configured interfaces, the MTU value of the CARP interface reflects that of the physical interface, not the VLAN interface. Should it not be indicative of the MTU available on the VLAN interface (4 less than the physical interface) since it is to the CARP interface that the data is ultimately directed? System: FreeBSD 5.4-p8 with CARP device compiled in. Interface vxn1 is the physical interface on which two vlans (vlan0 and vlan1) are configured. Two CARP interfaces (carp0 and carp1) are added, one for each vlan. As seen below, the MTU for the physical interface is 1500, and the VLAN interfaces 1496, but the CARP interfaces are showing 1500. vxn0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f42%vxn0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 10.1.1.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.1.1.255 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:42 vxn1: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f4c%vxn1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:4c lo0: flags=8049UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST mtu 16384 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 vlan0: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1496 inet 10.10.10.11 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.10.10.255 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f42%vlan0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:4c vlan: 10 parent interface: vxn1 vlan1: flags=8943UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1496 inet 10.10.20.11 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.10.20.255 inet6 fe80::20c:29ff:fef1:9f42%vlan1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7 ether 00:0c:29:f1:9f:4c vlan: 20 parent interface: vxn1 carp0: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 10.10.10.10 netmask 0xff00 carp: MASTER vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 0 carp1: flags=41UP,RUNNING mtu 1500 inet 10.10.20.10 netmask 0xff00 carp: MASTER vhid 1 advbase 1 advskew 0 Andrew ** The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential.

RE: I could not dial with modem on FreeBSD?
Internal modems are manufactured for two target markets, MS/Windows and every thing else. Winmodems are cheep because the hardware controller function is handled by the software you have to install into windows. This hardware controller function is contained in a chip on the modem circuit board. Winmodems are missing this chip and have a replacement chip that directs the modem to use driver software running in the windows system to perform the controller function. The most common replacement chip is manufactured by Lucent. There are many versions of this Lucent chip each version needing a different software driver version. Up until version 4.4, FBSD did not have any solution to using Winmodems, but with the release of 4.4 the ports collection contains the Linux Winmodem 'ltmdm' driver which was ported to FBSD. This port is very poorly documented, only works with a limited number of Lucent chip version, and is unreliable. Your whole internet connection is managed by your modem and trying to shoe horn a modem specially manufactured for the MS/Windows operating system into FBSD is not the way to achieve a satisfactory dialup connection. To summarize. For best results you should use an external serial modem for connecting your FBSD box to the internet. This method works using the default generic kernel, creates no irq conflicts with the motherboard bios, and will work right out of the box so to say. All serial modems use the PC's serial ports' controller built into the motherboard. This has been the standard since PCs first came out If you want to use a internal modem in FBSD, you have to get one that has an onboard controller, preferable one that uses the PCI bus and has onboard jumpers to select irq number and com port setting. Even under Windows it's better to use a modem that has a hardware controller. These cost around $100.00. I recommend the Zoom model 3049L external modem, works right out of the box. How to determine if FBSD found my modem at boot time? The Boot log /var/run/boot.log is where you find out if FBSD found your modem. If you are using a external serial modem, then in the boot log you would see some messages about sio0 and sio1 having there irq number assigned, these are your PCs com port 1 and 2. For ISA and PCI modems, If you see PCI device unknown, this means FBSD found your modem during the probe process but could not match it to known devices in it's device table. This generally means your modem is a winmodem. If FBSD knows your modem it will replace the (unknown) keyword with the description of your modem. This does not mean you will have a working modem, it just means FBSD found it during the probe and has it listed in it's internal table. This is where you have to check out the irq number assigned by the PCs bios. During the PC hardware boot process the Bios summary screen should be displayed. You have to check this display to verify that your modem is not sharing it's bios assigned irq number with another device. Some times turning off the bio's plug-n-play option will allow you to assign irq numbers to devices. Setup bios have different options depending on the motherboard manufacture. Best advice is to play a round with bio setting until the summary screen shows the Nic and modem cards are not sharing irq's with other devices. They have to have exclusive use of the assigned irq number. The final test is to use the tip program to talk directly to the modem. Enter tip com1 or com2 to connect to the external serial modem, or tip com3 or com4 to connect to internal ISA or PCI modems. If the tip command responds with the connected message then your modem is functioning correctly. Try entering the Hayes at command, the modem should answer with ok. Use ~ followed by ctrl + d keys at same time to exit tip command. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Yavuz Maslak Sent: Wednesday, December 21, 2005 11:04 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: I could not dial with modem on FreeBSD?

KDE application menu blank
Hello, I'm running FreeBSD 6.0, and I'm having a problem with kde 3.4. The application menu is blank. The applications are installed, it's just that KDE doesn't seem to know that they're there. I've tried googling for an answer to this, and searching bug reports but haven't found anything relevant. I imagine that the solution is something like run command X to rebuild the menus, but I don't know what X is. Any pointers would be much appreciated.

Group membership above 15 of them
Hi, I would like to have users with more than 15 groups. The default kern.ngroups: is 16 by default and readonly, and not even /etc/sysctl.conf allows to modify it after reboot, although securelevel is -1. I read somewhere that I need the modify the source and rebuild world for this. If I put myself into more than 15 groups I cannot login anymore and only sshd[52178]: initgroups(username,100): Invalid argument message in the syslog warns me about this - I think more warnings needed at some other point since you can easily lock out yourself from a remote system.

I get this from 'man 2 recv' :

Where 'struct msghdr' is described in sys/socket.h like:
struct msghdr {
caddr_t msg_name; /* optional address */
u_int msg_namelen;/* size of address */
struct iovec *msg_iov; /* scatter/gather array */
u_int msg_iovlen; /* # elements in msg_iov */
caddr_t msg_control;/* ancillary data, see below */
u_int msg_controllen; /* ancillary data buffer len */
int msg_flags; /* flags on received message */
};
And where 'caddr_t msg_control' is also described in sys/socket.h like:
struct cmsghdr {
u_int cmsg_len; /* data byte count, including hdr */
int cmsg_level; /* originating protocol */
int cmsg_type; /* protocol-specific type */
/* followed by
u_char cmsg_data[]; */
};
I'm obviously missing something, but how can i get the actual data
coming from socket
using this function if 'u_char cmsg_data[]' is commented out in 'struct
cmsghdr' declaration (possibly containing incoming data?)

linuxpluginwrapper problems (again!)
I decided to try mozilla which built with no problems. In the process I upgraded linuxpluginwrapper and now none of the linux plugins work and both mozilla and firefox start with the following errors: LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/local/lib/acroread/usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so [/usr/local/lib/acroread/usr/local/Adobe/Acrobat7.0/Browser/intellinux/nppdf.so: Undefined symbol XmQmotif] LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin7/libflashplayer.so [/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-flashplugin7/libflashplayer.so: Undefined symbol ah_arctan] LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library /usr/X11R6/lib/linux-mozilla/plugins/nphelix.so [/usr/X11R6/lib/linux-mozilla/plugins/nphelix.so: Undefined symbol stderr] I tried uninstalling pluginwrapper and all of the plugins and rebuilding.

I have installed BSD numerous times on various desktops, but this is my first attempt on a laptop. When I boot off the CD, before the boot menu comes up, an error message comes up: elf32_lookup_symbol: corrupt symbol table. Then the normal boot menu comes up, at which point selecting option 1 (normal) or option 2 (without ACPI) causes the BTX loader to halt after displaying some hex errors. I even tried hitting option 6, unsettng acpi_load, then booting, but the same error comes up. I tried 6.0 AMD-64 and didn't get as far. Before the boot menu could come up, it continually spews what appears to be the same/similar hex errors and didn't even respond to Cntrl-Alt-Delete. Trying 5.4, I don't get the elf32 error before the boot menu, but if I select option 1 it has trouble loading ACPI and then shuts down. Selecting option 2 (with the 5.4 cd) does not bring up an error, the system just shuts down. Out of curiousity, I tried a Knoppix 4.0 CD and was able to fully boot and get a functioning system up (albeit running off the CD). My bios has painfully few options, such as boot order and disabling the onboard wireless nic, nothing else. Is there something else I should try, or do I have to wait for the time being?

Additional dual boot issues
Ok, I was following my post in usenet (didn't know that messages posted here were propogated there, cool). Someone responded to another chap who was having a similar problem as mine that the issue was probably that they hadn't loaded the FreeBSD bootloader on to the second drive. So, I did this: # as root dd if=/dev/ad0 of=mbr.ad0 bs=512 count=1 boot0cfg -B ad0 In my system, the IDE drive (with windows) is ad0 and the SATA drive with FreeBSD is ad4. Now, when I'm presented with F1 - FreeBSD F5 - Drive1 I press F5 and am presented with F1 - DOS F5 - Drive0 This differs in that when I was presented with F5 on the first menu I'd press it and FreeBSD would boot. Now, it appears to try to boot Windows but all that happens is I get a blank screen for a few seconds then the machine does a soft reboot and I'm back to the bootloader prompts after the BIOS does its thing. What could be the issue now? Andy P.S. What does 'ad' mean in ad0, ad1 ... adN? Also, remember that I'm not a member of this list. Please respond to me directly when you respond to the list as well. Someone who responded last time mentioned a gmail account, or something, if that is some sort of work-around for folks like me with limited space for e-mail, I'd like to know more. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The proper way to connect depends on what what your ISP is set up for. Mine uses a straight ethernet-to-ATM bridge, so I just ifconfig and I'm off. I hear a lot of ISPs use PPP over ethernet, and other stuff as well. Best would be to find out what your ISP uses. If it's PPP over ethernet, search the web site (and/or archives) for that phrase, or for PPPoE. I thought FreeBSD would have something similar and I was just not finding it. Not quite so automated here. There is dhclient, the DHCP client, which allows your machine to get a dynamic IP from your ISP. I've never used it but I know it exists.

The ISP has to do so also. If they are going to different ISP's then you cannot do it with any operating system or device save BGP - the idea is completely -stupid- to put it simply. If you think different, then explain why and I'll shoot every networking scenario you present so full of holes you will think it's swiss cheese. And if you think your going to run BGP I'll shoot that full of holes also. I strongly disagree. There are many reasons for this. Two of which are increased throughoutput and redundancy. If you have read this thread you will have already seen that you cannot get increased throughput this way. As I asked before, explain how a DSL line to SpiritOne running at 1MBit/sec and a Comcast cable connection running at 1MBit/sec will allow you to download the FreeBSD release iso file at 2MBit/sec. This will be interesting. If you can't do it, which I will tell you that you can't, you have not increased throughput. And as for redundancy, I already explained that while this setup increases redundancy, the redundancy must be manually done - monitored by a human, and switched over when needed - or it will not react to the most common redundancy problems. The primary problem is that you need to make sure outgoing data for a connection is using the same line as the incoming connection. No, not at all. The primary problem is that the incoming data that is in response to the outgoing connection will come in on the same line that the outgoing connection used. If the majority to all connections are outgoing and both lines use NAT and have unique IP addresses, it's simpler to setup. If you have incoming connections as well, either only one of the two lines will be used or you'll need BGP Explain how to run BGP with a DSL line to Spirit One and a cable line to Comcast. or some kind of static route setup by the two ISPs. Rubbish. Explain how this would work. It won't. I have done this with a Linux router and using Comcast Cable and SpiritOne DSL. We had all incoming connections use DSL and outgoing connections use either line. You used the dual-NAT package that was detailed earlier which is the only one that can do that - is specific to Linux - and as I explained before, also will not permit you to take a 1MB DSL line from one provider and a 1MB cable line from the cable company and download a freebsd iso at 2MB. Thus it is not load-balancing because it does not actually use both lines for a connection. We balanced them by internal IP addresses, You did not balance them, you had some of the inside IP numbers use one line, and others use the other line. This isn't load balancing. but there might be more sophisticated methods. I do not know what support FreeBSD has for this kind of routing though. At the very minimum, you could get redundancy for outgoing connections by switching the route to use the other line when the first one fails. Which is not redundant. Considering the OP asked for specifics on how to do this and your response as been a bunch of theoretical gobbdleygook that is flat out wrong network theory, you haven't done anything to help the poor bastard.

Regards, Open /etc/ttys with your favourite editor and search for this line: ttyv8 /usr/X11R6/bin/xdm -nodaemon xterm off secure Change this into: ttyv8 /usr/X11R6/bin/kdm xterm on secure And voila, KDM will start at boot. Best regards, Jorn OK. KDE is starting on boot but it won't let me to log in as root nor I can't su after I have logged in as normal user. And another thing: I have configure X with xorgcfg -textmode and I have specified my card, monitor, resolution. Hence, after the log into my account I have 640*480 only resolution. I have tried to change in preferencesperipheraldisplay but I have only one choose 640*480.
