Re: make release and sysinstall
Sysinstall has a configuration file with wich you can specify several options, see man sysinstall(8) for more details. When making a release you set the sysinstalls configuration file with the LOCAL_PATCHES option to patch it to the chroot environment release build environment. We use it to create a automatic install for a host that we know exactly how the disks will be partitioned, what packages are installed what users etc. Here is an snippet of our patch file, (please note I have changed some of the names to protect the guilty :) ) --- /dev/null Sat Jan 26 17:11:01 2008 +++ release/install.cfg Sat Jan 26 17:17:46 2008 @@ -0,0 +1,31 @@ +debug=yes + +nonInteractive=yes +hostname=a.b.c +domainname=b.c + +mediaSetCDROM + +distSetMinimum + +disk=ar0 etc, etc Hope this helps.

Nvidia 6100 MCP RAID or GEOM
Hi! I am asking for recommendation. I'd like to use two SATA disks as RAID1 - mirror. My MB uses NVidia MCP6100 with hardware RAID. Is it better to use this RAID or to build a new one using GEOM? If I accidentally replace the MB will it be easy to reconfigure GEOM (for hardware RAID I know it is not if the chipset / SATA BIOS is not the same). And one more: Is network chip Realtek RTL8201 supported on FreeBSD? I didn't find it in rl or re drivers, some article says it is supported by nve or nfe ?!?

Re: make release and sysinstall
Hi Riaan, Thanks a lot for your explanation, it's been very usefull to me, really. I've been looking about Freesbie, but it seems abandoned and on their mailing list there is no post since a couple of months. PfSense, which I use here, uses bsdInstaller but it's last new is from Aug 02 2005, so, it seems abandoned also. More of the same with the livecd port... the scripts are not up to date with current FreeBSD releases. I'll give a sigth to nanoBSD., but for the moment it seems that where I can get more support/documentation is with sysinstall and standard FreeBSD tools. Another question: Suppose I create my own install.cfg for sysinstall and then I do a make release.If my sysinstall contains a couple of freeBSD packages (bash, python, etc..) plus a custom package created by me..

Re: Recover Deleted File FreeBSD 7.0
Restore from your backups (you DO have backups, don't you?) ;) Otherwise, there's no easy way to do this. If the data you deleted is very valuable, first thing to do is umount the filesystem, preventing the data of the deleted files from being overwritten by any new filesystem writes. There might be some companies specializing in recovering your data, but it'll cost you money. Ik the files are in ascii, you might get some of the data back by using strings, grep, dd and other tools on the disk device.

You just need to know which partition to access. # ls /dev/da0* will show you which entries are present. As I mentioned before, /dev/da0s1 or /dev/da0s1c should be the correct one. You can check which partitions are on da0 with this command that just does some reading (no modification): # fdisk da0 Then you tried, as suggested: $mount -t msdosfs dev/da0s1c /mnt mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0s1c: Operation not permitted Yes, of course. You're issuing this command from a user's shell, not as root. But because of FreeBSD's security concepts, you need to do the mount operation as root (that's why I prefixed the mount command with a # sign), so use su or sudo (sudo needs to be installed). You can, of course, enable the user to have access to the USB devices by modifying /etc/devfs.conf and setting vfs.usermount=1 in /etc/sysctl.conf. $mount -t msdosfs dev/da0 /mnt mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0: Operation not permitted Same reason here. You need to be root to do this.

Which version do I have to put first on the harddisk, which second and which last? I also want to know which bootmanager to use? Thanks for your time Greeting Jack Hello Jack, I had this same setup for quite some time. You will want to start with XP, since it seems to require being the first slice on the disk. Just make sure you don't let the XP install use the whole disk. You can then choose either FreeBSD or Ubuntu to be the second slice, it's really a matter of preference. Personally, I installed FreeBSD second, then added Ubuntu to the end as an afterthought. Note: when using this install sequence, Ubuntu will install GRUB as a boot loader, which will recognize XP just fine, but will ignore FreeBSD (at least it did pre-Hardy Heron). You will have to edit the GRUB config manually to make your FreeBSD install available in the GRUB menu. It's not difficult, but it does add an extra step. Also, be sure to keep a backup of your modified GRUB config---it seems that each time Ubuntu decides it needs to perform a significant update, it replaces the GRUB config with the default, making FreeBSD once again inaccessible. There is probably a way to prevent this, but I never got around to investigating it.

Working ccache configuration for buildworld on amd64?
This is an old problem, but so far I haven't been able to find a solution. When ccache is used to build world on amd64, the process fails when /usr/src/lib/csu/i386-elf/crt1.c is compiled. If WITHOUT_LIB32 is added to src.conf, this problem does not happen. Likewise, building without ccache works fine. Has anyone out there been able to find a ccache configuration that would work in this situation? I tried disabling ccache for some of the directories under /usr/src and /usr/obj, but it only caused problems in other stages of the build process. Here are the default ccache settings from make.conf: .if exists(/usr/local/libexec/ccache) !defined(NOCCACHE) \ (!empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/src*) || !empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/obj*)) CC= /usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-cc CXX= /usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-c++ .endif And here is what I tried using to isolate the problem, albeit with no success: .if exists(/usr/local/libexec/ccache) !defined(NOCCACHE) \ (!empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/src*) || !empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/obj*)) \ empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/src/lib/csu*) \ empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/obj/usr/src/lib/csu*) \ empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/obj/lib32/usr/src/lib/csu*) CC= /usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-cc CXX= /usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-c++ .endif Please let me know if you have a working solution. - Max ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Everbody knows and supports sendmail, but it's annoying to configure. Postfix is great, easy to configure, and now with milter support can do almost anything that Sendmail can. Smail and Exim users swear by their products, and I'm sure they're great (though I've never used either). Zmailer scales beautifully, though if you actually have enough traffic to take advantage of its scaling, you should buy another five mail servers. As for the best log analysis tool ... it's not free, but I absolutely adore Sawmill (http://www.sawmill.net/). It will support any and all log formats -- I currently use it with both Sendmail and Postfix logs. Highly recommended. And not very expensive. is our main requirement is to have a way to view the logs on a web based interface that will allow our system administrators when a customer complains they didn't receive an email to be able to go into the logs and search by date/time and view the activity for that period to determine if the mail went through our system or if it was blocked and if so why. Grep is your friend. Innovative use of grep, even. And if you use sendmail, here's a tool I wrote many many years ago that's had regular use over the years: http://www.it.ca/~paul/mailqgrep I haven't yet adapted it to Postfix logs. Trickier to parse. I've heard of and read about a few different programs like SMA and Anteater and pflogstats, but I don't know if these will have the functionality I need to allow admins to search logs for a specific date/time and/or specific phrase/address on a web based interface. Yup. The most detailed view of your log data is a direct one that you can get using grep. I don't know those other packages, but I do love Sawmill's web UI. (Hear that, Greg?

Re: question -updating package + ignore depend
actually I only installed ff2 cuz it was easier at the time - since i only ran into this while trying to update other parts of my system (thru pkg_add) and had other things to worry about. since ff3 runs flash ok, that's enough for me, and seems everything else is improving from what mike mentionsl so i still would like to figure out what you are trying to explain. I mean i only limit myself to *make install clean* when it comes to ports and hope for the best. i brushed thru the porter's handbook when i got stuck with ff2 to see how to ignore it (which didn't work anyway) and have a basic idea of what you are saying, but it is still a bit chinese to me. long story short, i had to scrap that system and start from scratch since then, so i will still have to go thru this and figure it out shortly, not just for the sake of ff right now but any future issues with ports; so i don't know if you want to follow up, try this out, or see what happens my end. while i'm at it, and for the record, after ff i ran into something else much more annoying and a bit comical to some extent. i was trying to install azureus, which needs jdk and the java files manually downloaded, which is not a small package. i went out and let it run, only to come back a few hours later and find it still building - and had to wait another long time for it to finish. meanwhile i noticed the word mozilla rushing by and was wondering *what the heck* since both firefox2+3 were up to date. when it finished i realized it was plain old mozilla, which isn't small, ran it, only to find this has known vulnerabilities and security issues, please install firefox and thunder $#$^$#$% ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
$ORIGIN problem in freebsd 6.2

Now, the issue is why, when i try to run my executable, the shared libraries cannot be found although all needed libraries are in the same path to the executable?The same thing result and after running 'ldd myexecutable' command, none library is find... I realize that the $ORIGIN variable is ignored or unknown after I change the rpath with the entire path to the shared libraries and then everything goes properly.

transcode doesn't build....
Hi Y'all:-) About the only thing that fails to portupgrade is multimedia/transcode [v 1.0.6]. I've poked around, but only superficially. Is there a bug report on this? Should I have checked online further? Please excuse if so. This is the first time that things have hung up and that I have not been able to resolve. thanks in advance, gary -- Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://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]
