network not performing - where to start?
Hi I'm running 6.2 as a fileserver and sambaPDC on a home network, and I'm having problems with network performance. The machine is an old laptop with a pcmcia 10/100 network card but it seems that I'm not getting better than a 10Mbit connection. This number is based largely on observations copying large files to and from windows, I'm sure there's a better way to test this from BSD. I believe I've eliminated everything outside the network card by doing some tests with a crossover cable and checking the switch and cable. I believe I've eliminated problems inside the machine with various time dd if= of= tests. I think ifconfig -a is saying that the os thinks the card is 100Mbit: ed1: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.5 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 ether 00:a0:0c:40:32:a3 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active So my questions are: How do I check the network performance from within freebsd? What other tools can I use to check for network problems? How can I check the network card is configured and working correctly? Thanks for any help!

Some protocols has less overhead. Also, you may experience better performance between bsd stations, if you can try set up two bsd stations to test performance on different protocols, ftp, http, tftp, whatever. I think the best I have had on a 10Mbit/s was 1Mbyte/s - that is about 80% is actually effective payload. Another thing you can do to get more correct numbers is to use the packet filtering statistics.

Thanks in advance, olivier You normally just start writing and deal with the errors that come from full file systems when they show up. The C functions set errno accordingly. The reason is that the system lies about the remainig space. Weather there is any space left you may use, depends on the user you're running your program as. It would be kinda stupid if your program didn't work because the disk was full, even when you're running as root and are permitted to use the remaining safety space (8% by default). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rc.diskless2 on FreeBSD 6.2
Hey, I'm currently setting up a system that runs off a compact flash disk. I'd like to have memory filesystems for /var, /tmp /dev to minimise the amount of writes to the cf. I read an article[1] that recommends the use of /etc/rc.diskless2, however I don't have /etc/rc.diskless2 on 6.3 nor on 5.4, 6.1, 6.2 or 7.0. I guess it must have been removed somewhere around 5.x Is there an alternative script in newer versions of FreeBSD? I can create the mfs partitions in fstab and write a simple script that will populate them with the necessary files on boot. However this seems like more work than using something standard like rc.diskless2. Many thanks, Andrew.

Re: network not performing - where to start?
Boldra wrote: Can you point me to a man page or something for your suggestion use packet filtering statistics ? Where do I start? If you have a firewall enabled this usually creates statistics on the packets sent and received. If not, you can create a simple filter that just passes everything. With packet filter something like pass on ed1 all should do, where ed1 is the name of you interface. It can show you just how much data is actually sent when you transfer that 100Mbyte file. I'm a bit outdated on the current situation, it's been a long time since I've had anything but FreeBSD to worry about - that is, I don't care about optimal performance for those who choose to use windows :) You will always loose something due to overhead in protocols on different levels, for example tcp send back ACK packets, using scp your system will also do encryption and decryption, etc. I recall once also experiencing performance issues when transfering data between linux and freebsd - that was more than 5 years ago, but I would always assume performance to be best between to equivalent systems. I don't know your brand of interface, but while the interface may formally support 100Mbit/s, in reality other things also affect performance, particularly cheap NICs perform bad in peak load, although they do communicate at 100Mbit. Don't ask me about details, but buffering is one of the issues AFAIK. Also, check MTU on the windows machines, that can be a killer if it forces fragmentation. I recall once that some set the MTU to 1492 or some other value. It can have significant impact on performance if MTUs differ and packets are fragmented. There is the MTU ping test: DOS ping ip.n.u.m -f -l 1492 see http://help.expedient.com/broadband/mtu_ping_test.shtml Cheers, Erik ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On Thursday 14 February 2008 00:14, Erik Osterholm wrote: IMHO, for an individual to state that Flash is not a relevant issue simply because they choose not to employ it, is similar to patient claiming that cancer research is a waste of time simply because they are not afflicted with the condition. Bad analogies are like a leaky screwdriver. All throughout this thread, there have been people mixing up issues. It's true that Flash is used on many, many websites, but one of the earliest complaints I saw regarded Flash-only sites--sites which require Flash in order to navigate. These sites seem fairly rare. It is manipulative and misleading to argue that because so many sites /make use of Flash/, then /Flash has become an integral part of the web/. I browse with Flash disabled all of the time, only enabling it specifically when I need it to use the web site. It certainly happens--but it's not a constant thing. I'm aware that Flash content exists on the pages I view, but most of the time it's supplemental, and the page degrades quite nicely without it. This is the best summary of the issues I've seen in this thread. One last time, because we're going round in circles: I don't have a problem with people putting in the effort to get Flash working: I'd be even happier if Adobe would do it themselves; but there's not much that Flash is essential for, and to claim that ``half the entire Web'' is unusable without Flash, seems somewhat overstated. There are many sites which degrade, more or less gracefully, in the absence of Flash, but, like Erik, I don't come across many that are completely unusable. I agree. My experience is that most of the advertising sites use Flash. My guess is with the sourceforge thing that what is requiring it is not Sourceforge itself, but rather some 3rd party advertising site that their page is liked to. I see this quite a lot on cnn.com and so on. Not being able to see those sites is no loss, in my opinion. I don't, however, put any credibility into the conspiracy theories that Flash has code to disable it on BSD. MacOS X runs flash just fine and MacOS X is just as BSD as FreeBSD is. The thing is that you can easily run Remote Desktop on your FreeBSD system and remote-term into a headless Windows XP system you have kicked under your desk, so I don't see that even if Flash was Windows-Only it would be a great problem. Or, you can SSH into a convenient MacOS X system and run Firefox as a client on the MacOS X system and display it's output on your FreeBSD desktop. So please explain to me how exactly FreeBSD not being able to run Flash is a huge problem? I still haven't seen any comeback on the accessibility issue: is it really the case that banks in the USA (for example) have websites that are not accessible to a section of the population, and that this isn't covered by the ADA? (I'm not trying to score points here: I'm genuinely interested). There is a court case right now that's wending it's way though the US courts that addresses this. If you google around for it you can come up with it. As I recall some blind person sued a public website because of this. My guess however is that it won't pan out. In the US the law allows for alternative access for disabled. For example, if you build a building with a big impressive staircase leading up to the front entrance for architectural asthetic reasons, you don't have to make it wheelchair accessible if you have a ramp to a door around the side that leads to the same interior entrance. The fact is in building construction, most of what disabled people want (lack of stairs, wide doors, etc.) actually reduce your liability with normal people from tripping and such, which is why with new construction it's usually stupid to not design it ADA-compliant, aside from the building code requirements which require it anyway. With websites, if an organization's only portal to the public is the web, I think they probably are going to have to make their site readable by blind people. Which means flash isn't going to be compatible. But an organization could sidestep this by publishing an 800 number going to some call center in India, and most banks have pretty extensive telephone banking whereby you call the bank's 800 number and use a touch-tone phone to key in your account number and such to do your banking. As a matter of fact I routinely use the 800 number voice response unit of my bank to check bank balances rather than logging into the website - it's faster.

lagg driver at 6.3-R ?
Hello I plan to migrate my mailhub to 6.3-R soon, the machine ( IBM X3650) has two giga-ethernet interfaces and I really would like to use the LAGG driver as the machine is connected to a Cisco 3750 switch. Is this driver OK for an email production environement ?

Then, after starting fusefs (which means loading the fuse kernel module), I tried: # mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/ad0s1 /C mount: /dev/ad0 : Operation not supported by device I got the same message for a USB drive on /dev/da0. Documentation on ntfs-3g is pretty limited. Did I miss something? I really rather not convert my new USB disk to FAT32 if I don't have to. mount only calls a couple of file systems in the old fashioned way. One of them is ntfs. What I did to be able to mount NTFS systems with mount -t (obligatory if you want to use fstab to mount), I did the following: # mv /sbin/mount_ntfs /sbin/mount_ntfs.bak # ln -s /usr/sbin/mount_ntfs-3g /sbin/mount_ntfs This is one of my /etc/fstab entries /dev/ntfs/2vault /mnt/vault ntfs rw,late,gid=5,umask=113,dmask=002 0 0 Cool!

Well, it is. Is there a needed FBSD package I'm missing (the Tools install program doesn't complain about it). A known issue, or bug, maybe? Or is VMware support not yet enabled? Help would be greatly appreciated. I just went through almost the same thing, installing FreeBSD 7 under VMware Workstation on Windows.

Fortunately, X.org ships with the vmware (video) and vmmouse (input) drivers these days. If they are not installed in your VM then you can install them by hand from ports/x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware and ports/x11-drivers/xf86-input-vmmouse respectively. Alternatively you can do something like cd /usr/ports/x11-drivers-xorg-drivers make config, select the vm drivers from the list, and then upgrade the xorg-drivers port (portupgrade -f xorg-drivers if you use portupgrade). You can install and use these drivers without ever installing the VMware tools, although the guestd and memctl components of the tools are useful.

Support for Asus P4S800D-E
Hi, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 6.3 on a system with a Asus P4S800D-E motherboard. I believe it uses the SiS 955TX chipset to control the hard disks. When I enter the sysinstall utility to do a Standard Install, sysinstall does not recognise my hard disk. This is because the SATA hard drive runs off its SATA controller and is not normally seen by OS's unless 3rd party software/drivers is loaded. There is no FreeBSD support on the SiS website, however I found another thread: http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/questions/2004-06/2737.html in which the guy clearly states he got the same motherboard working in FreeBSD. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'll appreciate any help, thanks. PS: I'm using MS outlook to write this message, and tried to format everything as plain text.

not)...

char *bp, *tok;
char *delim= , s1[256]=abc def ghi jkl mno.;

}
}
Ooops ... wasn't paying attention. While the printed output is the

it this way is destructive to the original s1 string - which may matter
(or not)...
So, to protect the original string, you do have to copy the original
string to a new buffer:
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
main()
{
char *bp, *tok, buf[256];
const char *delim= , s1[256]=abc def ghi jkl mno.;
bp = strcpy(buf, s1);
while ((tok = strtok(bp, delim)) != NULL)
{
bp = NULL;
printf(tok = [%s]\n, tok);
}
}
So, at least we eliminated the first strcpy in your code:
char *bp, buf[512], *tok, tstr[512];
static char *delim= , s1[256]=abc def ghi jkl mno.;
bp = strcpy(buf, tstr);
This accomplishes nothing and may not even be safe - strcpy() copies
until it hits \0. I do not recall if the declaration of tstr[512]
intializes it to \0. If not, then the strcpy() is going to keep
running until it finds one, overwriting the end of buf[] and probably
causing core dumps or other evil...

Building Xorg as 32 Bit binaries on 64 Bit system?
Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 7 on an Athlon64 based machine with a 64 bit kernel. The machine is supposed to be a server (at home) so there's basically no Xorg involved. Now I want to monitor what the system is doing and I decided to install sysutils/conky from ports. The problem is that conky crashes with a BadDrawable error. I searched the net for some time and found evidence that conky might not work in 64 bit mode. I tried to recompile it - the entire Xorg packages - but every time I end up having 64 bit binaries. I have CPUTYPE and CFLAGS commented out in /etc/make.conf, but the problem seems to arise from the configure scripts used by Xorg. For example during make install clean on xproto configure states: checking build system type... amd64-portbld-freebsd7.0 checking host system type... amd64-portbld-freebsd7.0 checking for style of include used by make... GNU checking for amd64-portbld-freebsd7.0-gcc... cc I wonder if it's possible to somehow override the build system type information?

Configuring mod_jk for Apache and Tomcat

I have setup inclusions in the httpd.conf file to use similar settings to other modules, etc. Therefore my worker.properties and mod_jk.conf is under /extras.

Re: is there an easier way?
On 2008-02-18 15:03, Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
To my fellow C nerds,
It's been a great manny years since I wrote this appended
snippet. Now I can't remember why (of if ) I need all the
strcpy() calls. Is there a simpler, more logical way of
printing a bunch of string by snipping off the left-most?
In short,, can anyone 'splain why strtok needs all this?
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
main()
{
char *bp, buf[512], *tok, tstr[512];
static char *delim= , s1[256]=abc def ghi jkl mno.;
bp = strcpy(buf, tstr);
strcpy(bp, s1); /* bp filled with writable mem works like this, too */
while ((tok = strtok(bp, delim)) != NULL)
{
bp = NULL;
printf(tok = [%s]\n, tok);
}
}
I don't know about `simpler', but the hardcoded `magic' numbers above,
like 256 and 512, make me nervous.
Another point which is worth noting is that you don't need to copy the
string at all, for one thing.
If you have a string defined like this:
const char *s = hello world;
Then you can use a second pointer to point somewhere within that string
and print from that point:
const char *point = s + 7;
printf(%s\n, point);
So if you want to strip the first 'word' from a C string, you can do
this in the following steps:
[0] Get the initial string in your s1[] buffer, i.e.:
const char s1[] = abc def ghi jkl mno.;
Note that if you use `s1[]' to define the string, the
compiler is smart enough to grab enough space for it. This
way you don't need all the `magic' numbers, like 256 and
512 in the original code.
[1] Find the first whitespace character in the string, using
strcspn() to match everything *except* a whitespace:
const char *p;
size_t num_chars;
num_chars = strcspn(s1, \t);
p = s1 + num_chars;
[2] If the character pointed at by the new value of `p' is the
terminating '\0' character of the original string, you are
done; the original string contains a single word, so you
can skip it entirely.
if (*p == '\0') {
printf(\n);
return;
}
[3] Now you can use strspn(), which is the *inverse* operation,
to skip the whitespace characters you just found:
num_chars = strspn(p, \t);
p += num_chars;
[4] If the character pointed at by the new value of `p' is the
terminating '\0' character of the original string, then you
hit the end of the string again, so there is no `second'
word; you can move on again:
if (*p == '\0') {
printf(\n);
return;
}
[5] If you are still around, then `p' now points right at the
beginning of the second word.
printf(%s\n, p);
return;
A sample function which returns a pointer to the second word of the
string you pass to it, could be something like this:
#include stdlib.h
#include string.h
#define SPACECHARS \t
char *
secondword(char *s)
{
size_t num_chars;
char *p;
if (s == NULL)
return NULL;
/*
* Skip any non-whitespace chars first.
*/
num_chars = strcspn(s, SPACECHARS);
p = s + num_chars;
if (*p == '\0')
return p;
/*
* Then skip whitespace, until we hit the end of the
* string, or we find the second word.
*/
num_chars = strspn(p, SPACECHARS);
p += num_chars;
/*
* Even if we just hit '\0' or a non-space, we can
* simply return whatever our next match character is.
* It's either going to end up being the start of an
* empty string, or the second word we wanted to find.
*/
return p;
}

I don't think you need the copies. This works just as well:

}
}
I'll try this and compare it to what Joe sent. Also looking at publib.0.39
that LIW started years back. Ideally, I think it's better to malloc space
because given my intended use, the strings could be relatively few ... or run
into the thousands.
Parenthetically, I'm trying to get use to kmail, and evolution, both of which
are hard to save the attachment-of. mutt is so much easier.

libc5 on freebsd 6.3
after several years of relatively trouble free system ( 5 6.3 ) and port upgrades, I started having some issues with timesieved daemon of cyrus imap. nothing in the software configuration has changed, but the cyrus port was recently upgraded ( around the same time that the system was upgraded from 6.2 to 6.3 ) the only thing that looks suspicious is the fact that most ( or all ) cyrus binaries are linked to both libc5 and libc6. in fact, after some digging around, I discovered that many other binaries on the system seem be linked to both libraries. I suspect that libc5 is the remnant of 5x installation. What's the safest thing to do ? remove libc5 and link libc5 to libc6 ? rebuild affected software ? ( couldn't find a relevant make.conf option, so what might a flag like that look like ?

Baiscally if I try and ping it from a windows box, I get this: ping bytecart Ping request could not find host bytecart. Please check the name and try again.

A jar is an archive which contains multiple Java class files. So you will need to extract the class files first (e.g. jar -xf foo.jar). Once you have a class file or files you can use java/jad to decompile the byte code back to .java source code.

As usual, I'm having trouble (which is why I haven't bothered before, and given Tomcat apps a wide berth). Can someone let me know where I'm going wrong? I have setup inclusions in the httpd.conf file to use similar settings to other modules, etc. Therefore my worker.properties and mod_jk.conf is under /extras. I know something works because they are reflected when I navigate to /webapps on the Apache server. mod_jk.conf: # Replace jsp-hostname with the hostname of your JSP server, as # specified in workers.properties. # IfModule mod_jk.c JkWorkersFile etc/apache22/extra/workers.properties Is this line right?

Any ideas why I shouldn't be seeing the index.jsp found in the Tomcat directories? I also tried navigating directly using port 8009 with no result either (And yes, Tomcat has been started- I checked the port using nmap). The two things I always screw up: permissions and DNS. If your /etc/hosts isn't set up properly, and/or hosts.conf's URL entries aren't correct, weird weird errors can happen. If something is set to 444 instead of 755 (as appropriate), other weirdnesses occur. Are you using a www user? Make sure they're added as appropriate for the file. I know *none* of this may be helpful, but I always check those and I've usually screwed one up. Otherwise, is there anything in /var/log/httpd-error? You could be right with that, but I think its in my setup somewhere. What shows up if I navigate to /webapps is it recognises Apache-Tomcat but gives me a 404. I can't navigate directly to Tomcat, but I'm not sure I've got it right. 8009 seems to be just for the connector, and 8443 does nothing. It appears to me that I haven't got a directory on Tomcat setup but I haven't a clue where to set it. Web.xml seems right, but then I'm not sure... OK. Tomcat is working- I managed to find out how to get direct access to it (had to uncomment a line in server.xml, web.xml). Still no Apache / Tomcat connector though. If I navigate to /webapps it says 404 - although this says the error comes from Apache Tomcat6. Is it the connector config I need to play with or the Tomcat? In either case, what do I need to change? I found through a search that older versions of Tomcat need to have a listener line in the server.xml. Is this true for Tomcat6? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I don't think you need the copies. This works just as well:
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
main()
{
char *bp, *tok;
char *delim= , s1[256]=abc def ghi jkl mno.;
bp = s1; /* Now both point to the literal string to be tokenized */
while ((tok = strtok(bp, delim)) != NULL)
{
bp = NULL;
printf(tok = [%s]\n, tok);
}
}

Your Assistance
Dear Friend, It is out of desperation I am sending you this email. I would like to remain anonymous for now till I am able to trust your confidentiality in this matter. My husband and I need your help to front for us as owners of funds that are his which might come under investigation if the funds ownership is not changed soonest as my husband's finances are increasingly becoming the source of investigation by our Detractors. The source of this fund, which my husbands earnings would not validate, will further sink him into the cesspool dug by our enemies. It is because of the dire situation we find ourselves that we resolve to reach you and ask for your assistance in this matter. It is only customary in Africa when one occupies a high position like my husband did, to enjoy the privilege of being presented with gratifications sometimes through the award of contracts especially by companies that came into operation during his tenure. But due to the recent plot by our detractors towards my husband, hence we immediately wish to move some funds away that his income cannot account for and which came in form of gratification while he was in office. We are averse to letting those we know here in my country into this transaction because we are no longer sure who our friends are. You will be handsomely rewarded if you choose to help us in partnership in this deal. I will be expecting to hear from you as soon as possible, and will disclose further details to you upon your response. Do well not to disclose the content of this mail to anyone please.

thankee, thankee!
Giorgos, Joe, Paul , and Tim, Thanks for your insights today, gentlemen. I began on what may be a very worthwhile [ and reasonably small, *thankfully*] program that may benefit everybody who reads text online. Or off, for that matter. I was using a shareware version that kept annoying me to shovel $$$ their way when I finally got PO'd enough to do my own version. The algorithm comes first, naturally. Then the data structs|classes|whatever. ---I do prelim coding while I'm planning; helps me figure things out. GUI: yes, I will need help with eventually; for now, going back and forth from that tts app, KTTSmgr(?) and the other shareware, I kept improving the dickens out of my thesis.S see what happens. No offense to those of us who have hacked out man pages or other docs, but I'm pretty sure that using these tools will inddeed help improve the online documentation _considerably_. gary -- Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.thought.org Public Service Unix http://jottings.thought.org http://transfinite.thought.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Still looking for a calendar server...
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Da Rock Sent: Monday, February 18, 2008 4:16 PM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Still looking for a calendar server... I'm currently looking into bedework now- it seems ideal, but getting tomcat to work with apache is becoming a challenge. I'm using mod_jk but it doesn't appear to be cooperating yet. What is your experience in building apache modules? The problem is mainly in the mod_dav_acl module which needs xattr.h. I'm wondering if we can borrow the headers from another source. You can borrow whatever headers you need to get the code to compile. You may find that it would work a lot better though if you change the xattr.h include to: include sys/extattr.h The problem will be in the link stage. If the libraries that you have linked in do not contain the functions that are defined in xattr.h then you will get link failures. However I don't really understand why your having problems. The SF page for this, here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/moddavacl claims: Operating System: All POSIX (Linux/BSD/UNIX-like OSes) This would indicate a configure script that understands FreeBSD is present. It sounds to me like you are not following the instructions included with the mod_dav_acl module to build it properly. What exactly are you doing? Could you post the steps your going through to build this? I had thought Mirosoft deprecated all the webdav stuff in future IIS servers - maybe there is a lack of interest in the industry now?
