CUPS - Does not function anymore
The story so far: I had cups-1.2.2 and couldn't get KDE to use it with my HP PSC 1400 and hplip. I read somewhere that KDE was only reliable with cups 1.1, so I downgraded CUPS to the last version before it was switched to 1.2.0. That ended up breaking hpiod; so much for that. I had no choice but to upgraded cups back to 1.2.2. I also replaced /usr/local/lib/kde3/cupsdconf.so with a symlink to /usr/local/lib/libkdeinit_cupsdconf.so Now? Pretty much everything to do with printing is broken. If I go to localhost:631, I get the CUPS welcome screen, but all the links load for a long time then just stop. I used to at least print with LPD, now that's gone: A print error occurred. Error message received from system: /usr/local/bin/lpr -P 'PSC_1400' '-#1' '/tmp/kde-sgm/kdeprint_zivvNqlK' : execution failed with message: /usr/local/bin/lpr: Unsupported format 'application/postscript'! I could also print with CUPS out of non-KDE apps like Firefox. Now they just do nothing. The printer is connected fine, because I can get its status and scan with it from hp-setup. It pretty much looks like CUPS is screwed up, and I can't figure out how to fix it. Could someone please help? __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

How to remotely check an Adaptec 2100S RAID array status under FreeBSD 5.2.1?
Hi all, I hope someone can answer the following question for me (which may be trivial). In my fall-back server I use an Adaptec 2100S SCSI RAID controller, with two (identical) drives attached to it. This morning I recieved the dreaded phonecall (from the server farm) that that machine is emitting a loud beep,which I remember to be the RAID controller's alarm in case a drive has failed. Now, the above is clear and all, and I will replace the broken drive asap, so no question there. However, I am about to go on a 3 week holiday to South America, and as I'll then be on an entirely different continent, I was wondering if there are any ways to remotely check the status of hardware RAID arrays. :D In this case I tried dmesg (and checking the /var/log/messages file) and I couldn't find a single error message from the RAID controller (which can be deemed 'desirable' behaviour, as one of the two drives still works fine). Are there any software tools for FreeBSD that can be used to check this remotely from an SSH terminal (no X), or better yet, is there support in FreeBSD itself for checking the status of hardware RAID arrays? Tnx in advance, and cheers! Olafo PS: I am wondering about the same question for the 3ware 9600 SATA RAID controller too.

BSDstats v3.0 - The Security Rewrite
Over the past few days, I've been working with Paul Schmehl and Matthew Seaman to come up with a more security sensitive version of BSDstats ... one that reduces the amount of sensitive information stored in the database down to ... zero. No IPs, no hostnames ... This new version also reduces the number of 'network fetches' down to 4 for the first run, and 3 for subsequent runs, so it runs a bit faster, and talks across the network less. And, finally, this one has its own domain for check in server ... None of the pre-v3.x clients can talk to the v3.x server, since the DB format has totally changed, so everyone needs to grab the latest version and run it so that we can re-sync the database properly ... From now forward, the stats will be viewable from: http://www.bsdstats.org Marc G. Fournier Hub.Org Networking Services (http://www.hub.org) Email . [EMAIL PROTECTED] MSN .

Remember you can do things like % jexec NUM /bin/ps from the master to do a ps command inside jail NUM you can get the jail number from the % jls command inside the master.

6.1-Stable + named ndis + nfsd == System crash ?
About a week ago I rebuilded world and updated from 5.4-STABLE to 6.1-STABLE and I'm using a Netgear WG311v3 with ndiswrapper as WLAN card. My computer acts as a gateway for my LAN and WLAN. Saturdaynight I found out my server crashed while copying data from my server to my laptop through WLAN ( using ndis0 ), when I looked in the logfiles I couldn't find anything strange ( or at leat at the places I looked ) and decided to let it be. But today I had the same problem; I have a couple directories mounted using NFS ( Server: the 6.1-STABLE computer ; host : My laptop ), when I tried to copy data from one of those directies to my local drive suddenly my server crash again. The only strange thing I found were these messages in /var/log/messages from the time my server crashed: Aug 14 15:52:22 FStaals named[541]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Aug 14 15:52:22 FStaals named[541]: creating IPv4 interface ndis0 failed; interface ignored Aug 14 16:52:22 FStaals named[541]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Aug 14 16:52:22 FStaals named[541]: creating IPv4 interface ndis0 failed; interface ignored Aug 14 17:52:22 FStaals named[541]: could not listen on UDP socket: permission denied Aug 14 17:52:22 FStaals named[541]: creating IPv4 interface ndis0 failed; interface ignored I'm not sure if it has anything to do with my system crash. Or what else I should look at to find out what is causing my system to crash ? I looked in /var/log/messages and my dmesg, but nothing realy weird turns up. How can I find out what went wrong and fix it ? Also what's up with my named ? I don't notice anything wrong with trafficing etc on my wlan.

I guess the answer is no for CPU usage, but is there a way maybe to get the RAM usage of the processes of each jail? You can monitor the numbers from the ps(1) output per jail, see the other answers in this thread. However, you should be aware of the fact that processes share memory, even when running in different jails. For example, most processes are linked against the standard C library (libc), and its size is included in the size of every process, as reported by ps(1) -- but the code of the library is only loaded once into memory, i.e. it is shared between processes, independent of jails.

moused not working
Hello, I installed FreeBSD 6.1 on a wmware virtual computer. Result: moused works fine with moused -t auto -p /dev/psm0 If I boot another wmware computer with pxeboot, then moused starts, but I cannot see the cursor. If I start sysinstall and start configuring the mouse, then the cursor does appear! Then it asks me if I can see the cursor moving. I say 'YES'. As a result, the cursor disappears immediately. I tried the same with a real computer and I had the same results. If I start moused -t auto -p /dev/psm0 on the command line then I get no error message but I cannot see the cursor. Maybe it is related, maybe not, but if I start Xorg -configure then I only get a big black screen and I have to reset the computer. Even Ctrl+Alt+Del not working. It is the same on the virtual and the real machine too. The same command is working if I boot from the hard disk. Any ideas?

RE: ICH8 Support
To follow up on a previous thread regarding ICH8 support, what parts of a P965 chipset based motherboard will work with existing 6-STABLE? I'm close to buying a Conroe-ready motherboard, but I'd rather spend $150 on a P965 board with DDR2-800 support than a more expensive 975-based board. I'm willing to wait for auxiliary support for things like hardware monitors, etc. As long as FreeBSD will boot from the SATA controller and the on-board GigE Intel NIC will work (I believe it will, looking at the if_em cvs logs), then I'll likely go theP965 route. How about USB? Are there any developers working on ICH8 at this time? If so, I would be willing to contribue testing at the very least. Just curious what kind of time frame we can expect the P965-based motherboards to be at least minimally supported. Thanks!

ICH7 SATA Issues?
Running 6.1-R I have a new dell dimension 5150 workstation with an Intel ICH7 sata chipset onboard. I've currently got a pair of WDC WD3000JD disks installed running a gmirror set. The problem is that the second disk on a fairly regular basis drops off the bus. I'm convinced that it's not the disks or cables as I've swapped out the disk and cabling already. I was able to find a number of reports from other people suffering simmilar issues using ICH7 controllers but no real solution. This is starting to feel like a driver problem. Yeah for SATA hotswap and being able to reinit the controllers but that's already gotten old. (The drive will not show up with a reinit until it has been powered off/on.) Does anyone have any idea what might be going on here? If there is any other information I should provide, please let me know. Currently: ATA channel 2: Master: ad4 WDC WD3000JD-00KLB0/08.05J08 Serial ATA v1.0 Slave: no device present When the second disk is present it shows up as ad5, the slave on ATA channel 2.

new 6.1 install will not boot
I've just installed FreeBSD 6.1 on a Dell Pentium III, and I must have done something wrong -- or missed a step -- somewhere along the way. When trying to boot, I do not get even as far as the situation described in sec. 4.2.5 of the installation instructions. The system hangs, with a completely blank screen and the curson on (I think) the second line, immediately after the BIOS loads the boot record from the FreeBSD partition. Keyboard input is ignored except for CtrlAltDel, which reboots and hangs again the same way. Booting a Windows 98 CD and running fdisk confirms that the FreeBSD partition is active. I'm not even getting anywhere trying to read the documentation: I can still boot from the FreeBSD CD, but if I try to view the HTML docs from the Doc menu it says this can only be done after the system is installed. (The system *has* been installed, it just won't boot!) Is there any way to recover from this? Even if I were to start completely over I would have no clue what to do differently. If it were a Linux installation I would try booting from floppy, but I did not see any chance during the FreeBSD installation to create a boot floppy. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Do you get the FreeBSD boot menu ?

Re: FreeBSD STREAMS
Well, we're trying to implement a custom kernel-level ssl... Is there any mechanism in FreeBSD to facilitate this?

Horizontal Streaking on Monitor
My Video card is an old origional Geforce 256 SDR. I am experiencing horizontal streaking in graphics and text mode. But after fouling around in X11 it's very noticable. I thought it might be the scan rate but text mode doesn't have a high scan rate by default. The monitor is fine. And why I am using a KVM I get the same results connecting the monitor directly to the video card. I'm thinking it's the video card in conjunction with the mothboard because I never had any trouble with that card before. Any ideas?

Perhaps we can find something that fits the bill and is already part of the base-system? Well, we're trying to implement a custom kernel-level ssl... Is there any mechanism in FreeBSD to facilitate this? That's the reply I was sort of expecting, and the reason I asked. If this is meant to be used for network sockets, then a mechanism in FreeBSD that is similar to streams: it is called NETGRAPH. There are various 'node types' in FreeBSD already, which support various sorts of packet processing, filtering, rewriting, etc. The manpages of all the ng_(4) nodes are quite informational, and you can find a few good references for Netgraph in Julian Elischer's personal web space at FreeBSD.org: http://people.freebsd.org/~julian/ There are currently more than 50 different Netgraph node types in FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT, providig packet functions such diverse as Berkeley packet filtering, a generic tunneling interface, packet firewalling, NAT functions, kernel mbuf tagging, or VLAN tagging, and so on. See all the ng_ manpages with: % man -k ng_ and the webpage of Julian mentioned above. Hopefully, you can find something that can help you get started. If an existing Netgraph node doesn't match 100% the functionality you want to do, you can always copy an existing node sources and modify them to create a node type of your own :-) HTH, Giorgos ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: CUPS - Does not function anymore
