ipv6 portsnap servers
Hi folks, I searched google and this mailing list and could find no specific mention of ipv6 support for portsnap. I also checked for records for the three portsnap mirrors portsnap1, 2, and 4.freebsd.org, no . I have an ipv6 only install, and wondering what other means I can use to maintain ports via ipv6.

Re: Large RAID arrays, partitioning
Thanks for your opinion. For now I will stick with the large RAID volume and no slices/partitions. As you said, it makes life less complicated. I think there is no problem about future upgrades supporting large volumes. I guess there will be support for even larger volumes. The more important concern for me is what to do if the capacity needs will rise from a few TB to a few dozen or a few hundreds of TB. I gues there is only one economical solution for my project. Lustre cluster file system. Vinum... As I found a much simpler solution, I think there is no need for implementing it. My personal opinion is that there is no excuse for using software raid solutions on a production server systems (except RAID1 where money is realy tight). Most HW RAID controllers are well supported on Linux and xBSD and the advantages of hot swapable drives, battery powered write cache and high performance XOR IOPs are very important for 24*7 systems. This does not mean that I don't want to mess with vinum. I will when there will bee enough time for it. Regards, Joze Bill Moran wrote: In response to Joze Volf [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have a HP DL320s 2U server with 12 500 GB SATA drives and Smart Array P400 RAID controller. The machine will be a video streaming server for a public library. The system I am installing is 7.0-RELEASE, amd64. I made 2 RAID6 volumes, one 120GB for the system and one 4.3TB for the streaming media content. The first problem I have encountered is that during installation, the large RAID volume wasn't visible. No problem, because I could install the system to the small 120G volume. After the base system installation I decided to delete the large volume using the HP ACU and create a few smaller 1TB volumes, which will hopefully be recognized by the kernel. They were, buth when I ran the fdisk from sysinstall it always reported: WARNING: A geometry of xxx/255/32 for da1 is incorrect. Using a more likely geometry. If this geometry is incorrect... That always happens. I don't remember the last time I saw a disk where it _didn't_ complain about that. Don't know the details of what's going on there, but I've never seen it cause a problem. I was trying to do a few 1TB vinum partitions and tying them together into single concatenated volume (I already did something similar in linux using LVM and it worked great). I had no success. Well, can't help you much if you don't describe what you tried to do here. Then I searched the web and found this patch http://yogurt.org/FreeBSD/ciss_large.diff and hoped it will resolve the geometry problem. It did not, but one other thing it should do is allow kernel to get da device for an array 2TB. It did! What version of FreeBSD is this? It looks like this driver has seen significant redesign in 7-STABLE. I deleted the smaller 1TB volumes and recreated one large 4.3TB RAID volume. The kernel recognized it perfectly as /dev/da1. Great! Then I tried to create a slice using sysintall fdisk and a filesystem using sysinstall label. Nothing but trouble! Again, without any details, not much anyone can do to help. I searched the web again and found a possible solution to my problem. I used the newfs -U -O2 /dev/da1 command to create the filesystem directly on the RAID volume. It worked without a problem. Then I mounted /dev/da1 to /var/media and here is the output of df -h command: Filesystem SizeUsed Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a4.3G377M3.6G 9%/ devfs 1.0K1.0K 0B 100%/dev /dev/da0s1e7.7G 12K7.1G 0%/tmp /dev/da0s1f 36G1.6G 31G 5%/usr /dev/da0s1d 58G 25M 53G 0%/var /dev/da1 4.3T4.0K4.0T 0%/var/media Is it somehow bad to make a filesystem directly on a storage device such as disk drive or hardware raid volume? Yes and no. If you use certain type of disk utilities, such as bootable CDs that check disk health and what not, they may get confused by the fact that there is no DOS-style fdisk partition on the disk. Otherwise, it works fine. I frequently do this to make my life simpler (why install partitions when you don't need them?) It also wastes less disk space (although, who cares about a few hundred bytes on a 4T disk). Now that you've got it up and running, I'd be more concerned about making sure your next FreeBSD upgrade will continue to support that sized disk. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Migrating to gmirrored RAID1
Hi, I have a failing IDE disk which is running my 7.0-p1 server. I've been investigating the possible solutions and I've decided to go with two new IDE disks and gmirror. However, I'm not too familiar with disk internals, I know how to install the system and somehow understand the concept of slices and partitions, but that's about it. I found some examples on how to install the gmirror on a running system, but they all have in common that they just add new spare disk to the system and turn on the mirroring to it, but I need to replace the current disk which is not the same size as the new ones. Any suggestions how one would do such an operation? Should I just re- install the server to a new disk, turn on the mirroring and then restore the configuration and files from the failing disk? Or is it easier to add the disks to the running system, turn on mirroring and then somehow dump the current disk to the mirror and then re-configure it to boot from the gmirror and remove the failing disk?

If the new drives have the same size as the old one, you could do it gradually: - Mirror the old drive to new drive #1 - Replace the old drive with new drive #2, mirror it from new drive #1 If the sizes are different, this won't work and the best would be to install a fresh system on a new drive and transfer the configuration from the old one. Booting will always happen from a single drive. Since up to the point file systems are mounted all relevant drive access is read-only, the BIOS will happily boot one of the mirrored pair, then the kernel will pick up and activate mirroring before file systems are mounted. This is why all instructions start with one drive and later add a new drive to hold the mirror; it's easy to set up a single drive and then simply mirror it. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

That's OK. I'm not upset. I'm not complaining. I just want to know what to expect from USB drives in FreeBSD. That sounds familiar, but I guess most USB storage devices are very similar, so maybe start looking at the USB controller.

it is the usb chip that does not work ok... or works only with windows timings Please use an usb storage brand: Kingston... for externals usb drivers, I recomend seagate... format them with a UFS2 file system using sysinstall, place a Freebsd partition on it and format it this way you can use all the freebsd features, and your system will never hang... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Auto Mount USB
All, Not sure how to word all of this. I am trying to auto mount my USB tumb drive in FreeBSD (The version that comes with PFSense) I believe most of my troubles are related to lack of knowledge. I can mount the drive just fine with the mount command. I also was able to add it to the fstab and have it mount at boot. However if the drive is removed it has to be mounted again. How do you get it to mount back up with out having to run the mount command again? Also I noticed while playing with it that the device assignment keeps changing each time it is plugged back into the system. Started with /dev/da0s1, then da1s1, then da2s1, da3s1 and so on. Which means I have to change my mount comand every time. Any suggestions on reading meterial would be appreciated. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: FreeBSD-7 reboots hourly
There could be memory issues. I had a system which used to periodically reboot. Eventually found out that after some time, when a part of memory is accessed, due to the faulty memory chip, the system crashes and reboots. Try swapping the memory banks and boot the system. If the faulty chip falls in the memory range where the system is booting up, then you will be able to see that the booting fails ! OR Try to replace the memory cards and try to run the system.

Re: Migrating to gmirrored RAID1
On Monday 18 August 2008 05:39:10 am Henry Karpatskij wrote: Hi, I have a failing IDE disk which is running my 7.0-p1 server. I've been investigating the possible solutions and I've decided to go with two new IDE disks and gmirror. However, I'm not too familiar with disk internals, I know how to install the system and somehow understand the concept of slices and partitions, but that's about it. I found some examples on how to install the gmirror on a running system, but they all have in common that they just add new spare disk to the system and turn on the mirroring to it, but I need to replace the current disk which is not the same size as the new ones. Any suggestions how one would do such an operation? Should I just re- install the server to a new disk, turn on the mirroring and then restore the configuration and files from the failing disk? Or is it easier to add the disks to the running system, turn on mirroring and then somehow dump the current disk to the mirror and then re-configure it to boot from the gmirror and remove the failing disk? I think the latter approach is easier and makes the most sense for your situation. Install the disks, set up the mirror(s) that you want, transfer data and then do a boot test. Something along these lines should work. Substitue device and volume names to match your hardware and tastes. #set up a single mirror to use the whole disk (versus mirroring individual slices/partitions) gmirror label myraid1 /dev/ad4 /dev/ad6 #install a partition table and the boot0 code fdisk -BI /dev/mirror/myraid1 #install a default label and the main boot code bsdlabel -wB /dev/mirror/myraid1s1 #create BSD partitions by hand. remember to set EDITOR if you don't like vi bsdlabel -e /dev/mirror/myraid1s1 #This is the tricky part. Create the partitions you want on the mirror. Use the output of bsdlabel /dev/ad0s1 as a guide. Remember that a should be root, b is traditionally swap, c is the raw partition and should not be changed, and d - h are other partitions. I find a spreadsheet to be handy for figuring out the correct values, though a calculator is adequate (I've used dc more than once..). The units you are dealing with are 512-byte sectors. Best practice (which sysinstall doesn't follow but bsdlabel -w does) is to leave 16 sectors at the start of the slice for the boot code (but both swap and UFS will avoid clobbering it even if you don't do this). If you follow the best practice and do the partitions in order, then the offset for a is 16, and the offset for any other partition is the offset of the previous one plus the size of the previous one. Assuming your last filesystem wants to use the remainder of the slice, figure its offset as above then subtract it from the total (the size of c) for the size. For filesystem partitions the fstype should be 4.2BSD, and use 2048 16384 0 for the last three columns unless you have reason to do otherwise. (The bps is recalculated when you create a filesystem so it won't be 0 later. That's expected.) The fstype for swap space is swap and the last three columns are omitted. Save and exit the editor when finished.) #Create filesystems newfs /dev/mirror/myraid1s1a #(repeat for other filesystems, changing the partition letter as appropriate) #Make temp mountpoints mkdir /newroot #(again repeat as needed) #Mount new filesystems mount /dev/mirror/myraid1s1a /newroot #(repeat as needed) #Dump/restore filesystems cd /newroot dump -0 -L -C32 -f - / | restore -r -f - rm restoresymtable #(repeat as needed, changing the filesystem argument to dump and the cwd for your new filesystems. one or two messages from restore about getting a different inode than expected is normal.) #edit /newroot/etc/fstab.

RE: Auto Mount USB
Thanks for the feedback Keep in mind the original post I indicated that I was running a version installed by the pfsense firewall installation ISO(www.pfsense.org) Looks like it is drastically trimmed down version of BSD 6.2 many commands are missing. Man, amd, camcontrol, etc. Also the I can't get the pkg_add to install packages. I think because pfSense is using it for it's own package store. Yes you are correct; I was just pulling out the drive with out dismounting. Not a big deal. I will be sure to just mount and dismount the USB drives manually. They are just there to store a config and log backup on the firewall. I am doing this so that if I have a failure or attack or some other type of crash. I will be able to check out the latest config and logs.

it would help if you said what are you doing , and what isn't happening,

Just to try to make it a useful reply, you do have java support working
on your ffox, right?
Yes, I installed the required java suite;
and it is shown in about:plugins ?
for example, mine shows :
about:plugins
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_03-p4-b00
File name: libjavaplugin_oji.so
Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_03
[table follows showing all supported types ]
Yes, the File name is exactly what I had installed. It may have been
1.5 rather than 1.6 that you have. At any rate, after re-initialized
ff, there was this two menu-bar long (or perhaps only one, but in loud
colors [IMO]) and one option was Speech. There was nothing I could do
to get any audio whatsoever.
I wound up writing the author who asked if I had the right plugin, and
more. The short version was that eventually I just dropped it. This
time I thought I'd check with the best and brightest list.
If you got firefox to echo any words, please tell me how!
I pulled down the speech deal,
I still don't know what is this speech deal you mention.
Somewhere in the ff headers is a list of the newest applets. I think
there are/[were] two that gave speech capability. AH! Found it:
The URL : https://addons.mozilla.org and type in speech and yes, it's
AccessiBar. That was the only one that seemed most likely.
While my main desktop [tao] portupgrades, I'm on my ubuntu server. I'll
see if something happens this time. Here and on my 7.0 FreeBSD server.

RE: Auto Mount USB
I you are correct and the thought had crossed my mind. In the event of a system failure it would be nice to have one hanging there in the system. I might add that these systems are in locked server rooms. I had planned on doing over the wire backups 1 per day over our wide area back to our main office and wanted to minimize bandwidth usage. My thoughts were to back up the config and logs once daily over the wire and to the USB drive every 3 hours or so.

The only things I do compile is wirld, kernel, and mplayer. For everything else, pkg_add -r is very welcome. By the way, compiling lasts much longer in FreeBSD 7. I think this is due to more optimization, but from 1 to 9 hours... what's wrong here?! Examples, please? ball-park [estimates] for times are okay. The worst ting for me is re-compiling OO Of course, xdm won't give you the functionality that kdm offers. A nice replacement for xdm, by the way, is wdm, which you can use together with Windowmaker, but without it, too. Especially if you want to use different window managers, wdm allows a simple means to switch them at login time. Ah, you may be the perfect man to ask about this multi-wm launch daemon. I saw it once a long, long time ago. I would really like to try different window managers. I used ctwm for Years, but that sseemed to limit my use of certain apps. Mostly in the Gnome/KDE world.

What are your top w managers? To the LIST: I found my missing .xinitrc. but now my .xsession file is gone. This is my ~/.xsession: It allows sourcing of the settings from ~/.cshrc (because the C shell is my usual dialog shell) and then executes ~/.xinitrc: #!/bin/csh source ~/.cshrc exec ~/.xinitrc So you can keep all your settings in ~/.xinitrc, for example: #!/bin/sh xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc xsetroot -solid rgb:3b/4c/7a xset b 100 1000 15 xset r rate 250 30 xset s off xset -dpms exec wmaker Both files are +x attributes. o I'll try your startup config, thanks.

That collision isn't going to happen for several reasons, but it's
missing the point I made earlier, that the build is failing on a cache
miss. If the kind of situation you're describing is happening, then it's
happening earlier, and the observed error is just a side-effect.
Nothing is wrong with ccache; it works just fine.
What's happening is that the build system is passing compiler options in
the CC variable when invoking make for lib32, and the recommended
make.conf config for ccache is blowing those away.
Here's how the lib32 build is invoked with ccache enabled:
cd /usr/src; MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj/lib32
_SHLIBDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj/usr/src/lib32 MACHINE=i386 MACHINE_ARCH=i386
INSTALL=sh /usr/src/tools/install.sh
PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/games:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/games:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

SHLIBDIR=/usr/lib32 make -DNO_CPU_CFLAGS -DCOMPAT_32BIT -DWITHOUT_BIND
-DWITHOUT_MAN -DWITHOUT_NLS -DWITHOUT_INFO -DWITHOUT_HTML
DESTDIR=/usr/obj/usr/src/lib32 -f Makefile.inc1 libraries
cd /usr/src; make -f Makefile.inc1 _prereq_libs; make -f Makefile.inc1
_startup_libs; make -f Makefile.inc1 _prebuild_libs; make -f
Makefile.inc1 _generic_libs;
Here's how the compiler gets called from the 2nd level make with the
recommended settings:
/usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-cc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/include -I/usr/src/lib/libc/../../include
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/i386 -D__DBINTERFACE_PRIVATE
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/../../contrib/gdtoa -DINET6
-I/usr/obj/lib32/usr/src/lib/libc -I/usr/src/lib/libc/resolv
-DPOSIX_MISTAKE -I/usr/src/lib/libc/locale -DBROKEN_DES -DPORTMAP
-DDES_BUILTIN -I/usr/src/lib/libc/rpc -DYP -DNS_CACHING
-DSYMBOL_VERSIONING -Wsystem-headers -Wall -Wno-format-y2k
-Wno-uninitialized -Wno-pointer-sign -c
Here's what's supposed to be happening (without ccache):
cc -m32 -march=k8 -mfancy-math-387 -DCOMPAT_32BIT -iprefix
/usr/obj/usr/src/lib32/usr/ -L/usr/obj/usr/src/lib32/usr/lib32
-B/usr/obj/usr/src/lib32/usr/lib32 -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/include -I/usr/src/lib/libc/../../include
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/i386 -D__DBINTERFACE_PRIVATE
-I/usr/src/lib/libc/../../contrib/gdtoa -DINET6
-I/usr/obj/lib32/usr/src/lib/libc -I/usr/src/lib/libc/resolv
-DPOSIX_MISTAKE -I/usr/src/lib/libc/locale -DBROKEN_DES -DPORTMAP
-DDES_BUILTIN -I/usr/src/lib/libc/rpc -DYP -DNS_CACHING
-DSYMBOL_VERSIONING -Wsystem-headers -Wall -Wno-format-y2k
-Wno-uninitialized -Wno-pointer-sign -c
/usr/src/lib/libc/i386/gen/_ctx_start.S
Notice the difference?
Try this instead:
# Special ccache for buildworld
.if exists(/usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-cc) !defined(NOCCACHE) \
(!empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/src*) || !empty(.CURDIR:M/usr/obj*))
CC := ${CC:C,^cc,/usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-cc,1}
CXX := ${CXX:C,^c\+\+,/usr/local/libexec/ccache/world-c++,1}
.endif
Instead of hard-configuring CC/CXX, it selectively modifies it only on
the first invocation of make.
Subsequent invocations are allowed to modify CC as needed using the
original (modified) values as a seed.

I was asking for other peoples experiences. If the USB support in FreeBSD was spotty according to other people, as has been reported, then I plan to not even try to work on it more until I install 7.1. Just for the record: - crashes the system on attachment - crashes the system on detachment - the system hangs on attachment but resumes responding if you pull the drive - installing the drive results in the little blue light coming on with dmesg reporting attachment, but attempts to mount fail with device not configured or somesuch - dataloss on the device that chkdisk in DOS couldn't save Dien dobre Jason, I have one system (7.0) which becomes extremely unstable if I have a USB drive connected. I usually get a system crash in 10 to 30 minutes after mounting the USB drive. It has never crashed without the USB drive attached, and it has never gone for more than three days with it attached. Usually the failure is much sooner. This was with 7.0- RELEASE. I haven't checked since I've moved to 7-STABLE. I have another system (identical software, different hardware) which is solid as a rock with the identical USB drive attached. Unfortunately, the crashing system is a small form machine and there is no way to put in a different USB controller. The USB drive was for backups, which I now do over the network to the machine that is working just fine.

Don't know why I didn't think of that.
