multishell user profile
Hi: I need to create a user profile that works in different shells, particularly bash, csh and ksh. It seems that these does not read the same files and/or in the same order. So, how do I configure the shell profiles without configuring each shell separately? Also, I can't find information if they use the same syntax, or what syntax they share so I can stick to that.

RE: Kill via Cron...
kill -9 `ps ax | grep backup | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'`
And you don't have to remember grep -v grep if you remember to use ps
axc (note the c), since arguments won't show up so the arguments to
grep won't generate a false positive.
I'm actually trying to kill the following in one swep if they've taken more
than
8 hours to complete... :

DL 0:01.81 /sbin/dump -0 -auf - /usr (dump) Have tried everything suggested thus far but nothing's done it as effectively as the original command run at commandline... just trying to automate the process by having cron kill at 8am. Hmmm is that because the system needs the resources for its usual functions after 8am? Or because if it hasn't finished by that time, it is clearly hung up and never going to finish? In the first case, I'd suggest simply running the backup at very low priority by renicing it to a high value -- it will run at usual speed *unless* there is anything else that wants a CPU timeslice, when it will be made to wait. In the second case, fixing whatever is causing the hang would be a better idea. (Processes that are hung up trying to do IO may not respond to signals very promptly which could explain some of your difficulties.) Unless you've got literally terabytes of content or are trying to write to a ridiculously slow device, and assuming you start the backup process at midnight, 8h is more than enough to backup most hard drives. Is your /backup partition on the *same* disk you're backing up? Or perhaps /backup is on the slave and /usr is on the master of the same IDE bus? Either of those could cause significant IO congestion. Other things to check for are filesystem corruption -- you'll need to take the machine down to single user, unmount the partitions in question and run fsck(8) on them -- or hardware problems - -- check the system log for any reports of trouble, try installing smartd and see if it tells you anything interesting. If your disk is flaking out, then don't try and coddle it along: replace it ASAP. Once things have got to the state where errors are affecting the OS, for any modern drive that indicates complete failure is imminent. Cheers, Matthew PS.

I think you may be confusing agp driver and video driver. The agp support in the kernel is for the agp slot on the motherboard chipset. If your motherboard uses an agp slot this is where an agp video card would be inserted. You would want this kernel support if such were the case. Video drivers, on the other hand, are part of the Xorg installation. This is a third party software installed from the ports system. The all the others you mention are probably the myriad of video card drivers installed along with Xorg. For the most part, the bulk of this software is not kernel related; the exception(s) being certain kernel modules such as dri and nvidia.

PXE + sysinstall(8) install.cfg: DHCP Attribute to map install config/policy to system MAC?
All:
The install.cfg mechanism is pretty wicked.
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a really efficient way
to provide new clients (or class of clients) an install.cfg
without rebuilding an MFSROOT image.
At least with pxeboot(8), in TFTP-only-mode, using
dhcpd.conf(5) client{} entries, there isn't a way
to differentiate policies.
It's just going to go looking for /boot/loader.rc
and /boot/loader.conf from wherever DHCP told PXE
to fetch pxeboot(8) from.
From there, you need to custom compile a 5 meg
mfsroot image for each [class of] client.
With an NFS stage-2 boot, I suppose you could set:
option root-path /export/${client}Root etc.,
but then your 5 meg mfsroot is just extracted
1-per-client.
Still seems a bit ugly. It seems like we could teach
sysinstall(8) to fetch install.cfg by some standard
mechanism.
Possibly a TFTP or NFS URL passed from the DHCP server
- boot loader - kernel sysctl - sysinstall(8).
For example, the Sun SPARC4s would TFTP fetch their
stage 1 boot loader via TFTP with a filename req
of their MAC address in HEX format, so one could
just put symlinks in place.
Thoughts or other ideas?
~BAS
PS: our in-tree tftpd(8) is an unending source of sorrow and misery and
clinical despair. ports/net/freebsd-tftp is a lifesaver (it actually
has debugging)

It seems that these does not read the same files and/or in the same order. So, how do I configure the shell profiles without configuring each shell separately? You can't - at least not very easily. Of course, you can do as few shell initialisations per se if you use things like login.conf to set environment variables instead of manually setting them in the shell config. The main problem is: The shells you mentioned to use different formats for their configuration. For example, while you can use set promptchars = %# set prompt = %...@%m:%~%# for your csh, you have to use a different syntax in bash. The same goes for aliases. A chance to partially bypass this is to put as many customization as possible into script-defined commands that you place in ~/bin (and add this to $PATH). Of course, this approach doesn't solve all imaginable problems. As for reading order of configuration files, refer to the manpages: man csh man bash man ksh You will see which files are accessed, and in which order, and where you can put centrally managed profiles as well as user- specific profiles. Also, I can't find information if they use the same syntax, or what syntax they share so I can stick to that. They don't use the same syntax.

E I need to create a user profile that works in different shells,
E particularly bash, csh and ksh. It seems that these does not read the
E same files and/or in the same order. So, how do I configure the shell
E profiles without configuring each shell separately?
The two things that bite me the most often when switching shells are
environment variables and aliases. I keep most of my environment stuff
in a single file ($HOME/.envrc) with entries like this:
# Local time for RCS date information
RCSINIT -zLT
# Default file browser.
PAGER less
A small perl script converts this into sh- or csh-style commands, so I
can just source the appropriate file from .bashrc or .tcshrc or whatever:
me% cat ~/.envrc.sh
# Local time for RCS date information
RCSINIT=-zLT; export RCSINIT
# Default file browser.
PAGER=less; export PAGER
me% cat ~/.envrc.csh
# Local time for RCS date information
setenv RCSINIT -zLT
# Default file browser.
setenv PAGER less
Aliases are annoying because the syntax is inconsistent, so I only use
those for inside-the-shell stuff like job control. Small ~/bin scripts
handle things like using dir instead of ls -lF:
#!/bin/sh
#dir: long directory listing; skip colors if running script/saveon.
case $SAVEON in
) opt='--color=auto' ;;
*) opt='' ;;
esac
unset BLOCK_SIZE# throws off the results for GNU ls.
exec /usr/local/bin/ls -lF $opt ${1+$@}
exit 1
Put the invariant stuff in the system startup files. Something like
this in /etc/profile would handle a general bash/ksh/sh environment:
test -f $HOME/.envrc.sh . $HOME/.envrc.sh

acpi_tz0: _TMP value is absurd Message
I have a Compaq Presario SR2180NX, which uses a P5LP-LE motherboard. When I bought the machine second hand three years ago, I originally installed and ran FreeBSD 5.5 without the error message. I recall that it began appearing after I installed and ran 6.3, though I don't think it did under 6.2. I still receive the message now that I'm running FreeBSD 8.0. I've looked at some of the ACPI code file and didn't notice anything obvious which might be responsible for the error message. A quick solution I've used is running a file with: hw.acpi.thermal.user_override: 0 - 1 hw.acpi.thermal.polling_rate: 10 - 1800 hw.acpi.thermal.user_override: 1 - 0 shortly after logging in as root. The message still appears but not as often, though it doesn't fix the whatever causes the error. I've installed FreeBSD on two different models of IBM ThinkPad without the error, leading me to believe that the ACPI code might not be completely compatible with the P5LP-LE motherboard. My question is what to do next. Is there a permanent solution to this or do I have to keep using the quick fix? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
