 Hello all,

 Just a question, on Linux the output of top's memory usage looks like this:

 Mem:   2075424k total,  1760848k used,   314576k free,   151872k buffers
 Swap:  4192924k total,        0k used,  4192924k free,  1214052k cached


 on FreeBSD:

 Mem: 48M Active, 945M Inact, 190M Wired, 112M Buf, 804M Free
 Swap: 4063M Total, 4063M Free


 I have looked at the respective man pages, and googled.
 Where can I find out what Active, Inactive, and Wired mean?


The differences have to do with the way memory is managed. Active
memory is currently is RAM and is being used by a currently running
process. Inactive is in RAM but is not currently being used. Wired
means that the page is locked into ram and won't be paged out.

Look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paging and
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_memory for more info

  To build Go programs for FreeBSD, you'll want to set up your
  environment properly. The following environment variables should
  be set:
 ...
  GOOS=freebsd
  GOARCH=386
  GOROOT=/usr/local/lib/go

This works because of the following sed-fu in lang/go/Makefile:

post-install:
@${CAT} ${PKGMESSAGE} | ${SED}  \
-e s|%%PREFIX%%|${PREFIX}|g   \
-e s|%%ARCH%%|${GOARCH}|g \
-e s|%%GOOBJ%%|${GOOBJ}|g

 === pkg-message for go-20100413

[ .. ]

  GOARCH=%%ARCH%%
  GOROOT=%%PREFIX%%/lib/go

It's probably preferable for lang/go to utilize SUB_FILES and
SUB_LIST instead of using ${SED} to manually expand VAR=VALUE pairs in
post-install.  For context, see:

Yes. There's a hosting company called MidPhase whose support queue (at 
mpcustomer.com) has been added (probably maliciously by some kiddie that 
thinks it's clever) to the mailing list.

They appear either not to know how to stop their ticketing system responding

Not 'single step' as such -- what you can do is run with '-x' which
prints each line as it is executed.  That's either:

   sh -x scriptname

or you can add it to the #! line in the script, or just stick 'set -x'
somewhere in the script body.

If you use the 'set -x' form, you can set it up to trace through just
the interesting parts of your code. (Somewhat counter intuitively 'set
- -x' or 'set -o xtrace' turns on trace mode; 'set +x' or 'set +o xtrace'
turns it off)

This doesn't give you a way of arbitrarily querying the value of any
variable, but you will be able to see all variable assignments as part
of the trace.

There's also a '-v' flag which adds displaying input read by the shell
as it executes.

Cheers,

Matthew

I'm not aware of a way to single step a script. But the old method of echo and 
exit is the way I use. I use echo to print the values and the line numbers 
that I want and exit to stop the execution of the script at a point I wish it

 The proper procedure for such an upgrade is as follows:
 

 If the thought of reformatting your system is scary, because you don't
 have backups or aren't sure they are comprehensive or work, then solve
 that problem, rather than trying to invent workarounds to cover for
 bad system administration. It will serve you much better in the long
 run.
 This isn't my question. I know how to currently perform the upgrade.

 My question is
 a) is it possible in theory to allow binary upgrades to be done?
 and b) if yes how much work would it take?

Sure, its possible. But my point was that it is not a good idea and
not something worth encouraging via tools like freebsd-upgrade. What
is the use case you have in mind for this where a reformat isn't an

You did not indicate what language your script is written in. There are
quite a few sites that have information for debugging a Bash script.

Upgrading from 7.1 to 7.2 is also possible via a format but we have a
tool like freebsd-update do help us instead. My question was is this
possible to add this functionality or worth it. The answer is no -
that is all that is needed.

So nobody has any comment on USB drive causing the whole system to
halt? Since the rsync was quite long and we've been having some power
failures I put the external drives in the UPS and it had no failures
over the weekend and finished fine. So the issue here is that is an
external USB drive in UFS + Journaling fails the whole system crashes.
I don't think this should be so and osmeone should look into that.

Should I report a bug? Is there enough information to actually post a

Some icons broken in Gnome after libpng upgrade

2010-05-31 Thread Alejandro Imass
Hi,

I updated libpng and Gnome (gdm) refused to start because it was
looking for libpng.so.5 and I had upgraded to libpng.so.6 .  I create
a softlink to trick Gnome but some icons broke and no longer show up,
particularly those in the taskbars, but those on the Desktop are fine.
This Gnome is installed via binary package so if I re-install it will
probably rewrite my current libpng and break other stuff. The other
option is to compile libpng from source and place only the specific .5
file in the libr directory.

Has anyone else had this problem? I did some searches and nothing
obvious. What do you recommend I do?

HELP: cups - can not login on localhost to cups server

2010-05-31 Thread Hartmann, O.

Hello,
my problem sounds trivial, but isn't. I can not login to my cups server 
on localhost via http://localhost:631, which worked for me several 
months ago. Well I installed a new host using FreeBSD 9.0-CUR and need 
to add printers. Regarding to this problem I found a lot of stuff in the 
net and mailing lists, but none of the hints and tipps worked for me. 
First I will describe what I've already did.


1) ensured local BSD lpd is not running
2) on a prior installed system where cups is up and running printing is 
possible but no administration (see subject), so  the problem seems to 
be common.
3) followed some hints adding a user root with proper password via 
lppasswd

4) deleted password.md5 and performed step 3) again
5) deleted all ports cups-* and /usr/local/cups folder and reinstalled 
cups, ensured having nothing left in /usr/local/etc


The problem occured out of the blue to me, I possibly missed some 
changes within the last row of updates.


Can anyone help?

Please eMail me since I'm not subscriber of the question list.

Thanks in advance,

 Vim is much smaller than Emacs but it still a few MB's here:

Yeah, but EMACS is (currently) reputed to stand for Eighty Megabytes And

I can't get at my FBSD box right now to check vim itself, but on another box,
'nvi' (which is described as a bug-for-bug compatible replacement for the 
original Fourth Berkeley Software Distribution (4BSD) vi, has an executable
that is under 256k in size.

 Subject: tcpdump filter maximum number?

 Hi,

 Is there any limit on writing filters on tcpdump? Or is there any? I
 use FreeBSD as the operating system. Maybe this limit is not on
 tcpdump but on bpf on FreeBSD that is why I have stated FreeBSD

There are _always_ limits to anything.  grin

If nothing else, your filters are going to be limited by the number of
open file descriptors.

Not terribly helpful, I know, but if you explain more/better what you're
trying to do, something more helpful may emerge.

Yes, it does: help files; syntax highlighting rules; manpages; around 14

/usr/local/share.

 I don't think the size of the installation tarball is necessarily
 representative of the final size.

For modern editors like Vim and Emacs the binary is pretty much a basic
'scripting engine' that loads plugins, scripts and other data files to
present an editing user interface to the user.  The last Emacs binary I
compiled is 13 MB:

  keram...@kobe:/opt/emacs/bin$ ls -ld emacs-*
  -rwxr-xr-t  2 root  wheel  - 13395130 31 Μαϊ 20:13 emacs-24.0.50

The full Emacs installation in /opt/emacs is more than 110 MB:

  keram...@kobe:/opt/emacs$ du -sk .
  113298  .

The binary itself is a small part of the installation; almost 1/10 of
the full size of GNU Emacs.

That's an old joke, but it's not particularly good anymore.

The smallest laptop-size 2.5 SATA disk I have at home can hold
more than 80 GB of data.  The size of a program is now a limiting
factor only if you are working with embedded applications.

Normal, every-day computers have enough disk space to hold tens
of thousands of full Emacs installations even without any sort of

Squid not starting from rc in Jail, however works when run from root as command??

2010-05-31 Thread Kaya Saman

Hi guys,

I've just built a new BSD server running on a Mini-ITX NAS chassis and 
it's working beautifully :-)


I also took the time to learn how to build jails too as this is only my 
second BSD build so am still really new to it although not to UNIX as I 
use Solaris and Linux frequently.


Anyhow I'm trying to migrate config which was on an old SPARC server 
running Solaris 9 with a version of Squid got from the Blastwave repos 
and currently I'm having major issues with it.


Basically I think I've worked through to figure out that running as user 
Squid or Proxy doesn't give me access to ports 1024, basically the 
'well known' ports.


Here is the error message I get from Squid when trying to start it using 
the rc.d file:


May 31 17:47:11 proxy squid[4360]: Cannot open HTTP Port
May 31 17:47:11 proxy squid[4358]: Squid Parent: child process 4360

May 31 17:47:18 proxy squid[4358]: Squid Parent: child process 4367 started
May 31 17:47:18 proxy squid[4367]: Cannot open HTTP Port
May 31 17:47:18 proxy squid[4358]: Squid Parent: child process 4367

May 31 17:47:21 proxy squid[4358]: Squid Parent: child process 4370

If however I start Squid using /usr/local/sbin/squid -NCd1 as root I get 
this and Squid works:

Postfix bad command startup??

2010-05-31 Thread Kaya Saman

Hi,

similar like I wrote before, to do with my migration from Solaris 9 to 
FreeBSD 8.0 x64 RELEASE.


Postfix is being run in a BSD Jail and so far I have disabled as much as 
I could of sendmail which I did this to rc.conf within the jail:


postfix_enable=YES
sendmail_enable=NONE
sendmail_submit_enable=NO
sendmail_outbound_enable=NO
sendmail_msp_queue_enable=NO


However upon startup Postfix gives me this problem:

Kaya,


You may need to edit the following
  alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
  alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases

and run BOTH   'newaliases' and 'postalias /etc/aliases' depending on
your setup.

restart postfix for good measure


if you telnet to your postfix IP and get the 220 banner, postfix is
happy with the config and should work as config'd.

if after establishing a telnet session, you don't get any banner,
postfix is still having problems with something.  start looking at
logs again.

Network sort of stops working with the em (intel) driver under load.

2010-05-31 Thread mark rowlands
Newly built and cvsupped system,with GENERIC kernel,  when copying
large amounts of data over a gigabit link via scp  the network  will
hang after a couple of gig.  I can then no longer login via ssh. If I
leave it be, after about 12-24 hours I can then login again. (A reboot
of course fixes the issue immediately...) .

The system is very vanilla, only accf_http in loader.conf. No sysctl
tuning done, no firewall hankypanky.

 Yes, it does: help files; syntax highlighting rules; manpages; around 14
 binaries in /usr/local/bin; including more than a thousand files in
 /usr/local/share.

After some off-list discussion, it has come to my attention that of the
14 binaries that are installed, one of them is the vim binary itself,
two of them are vimtutor binaries, one is a hex dumper, and the other ten
are links (hard or soft) to the vim binary itself (and thus not actually
separate binaries).  It seems kind of silly to include a tutor and a
hexdumper in the size of the editor just because the port for that
editor installs them, too.  Furthermore, documentation like manpages and
help files should not count against an application's size in my opinion,
since more documentation is a *good* thing, and counting it toward the
size of the application is marking it in the *bad* column.

The grand total size of that hex dumper and two tutor binaries is about
15KB, by the way -- so even if you include them with the editor for
determining its size, they're still pretty negligible.

Considering I could just delete all the syntax highlighting files and it
wouldn't even affect the way I use Vim (I tend to prefer monochrome, even
when editing code), I don't realy think I'd count those against the size
of Vim either.

Vim looks pretty small to me, compared with other editors of similar
power (emacs, GUI IDEs, et cetera).


 
  I don't think the size of the installation tarball is necessarily
  representative of the final size.
 
 For modern editors like Vim and Emacs the binary is pretty much a basic
 'scripting engine' that loads plugins, scripts and other data files to
 present an editing user interface to the user.  The last Emacs binary I
 compiled is 13 MB:

That's not what I see from the list of binaries in /usr/local/bin.  Those
appear to basically just be links to Vim, for the most part, rather than
separate programs with the vim binary acting as glue code.

If memory serves, I think there may have been some traffic about something 
like this on the -CURRENT list. You might look/search there and see if it 
sounds similar. If it seems like it might be the same thing, look for an MFC 
back to -STABLE. Sometimes the fix for very a specific item which has been 
addressed is to take a system to -STABLE in order to obtain the fixed bits.

Research and confirm first, before considering such an update. My policy on 
-STABLE in the past is I only think about going there for a very narrow and 
specific situation where I know I have a problem that the devs have seen, 
analyzed, and fixed, with subsequent MFC.

Something else too - if you can disable the vr and the USB chips completely, 
it might provide a data point. IRQ sharing is supposed to work well, and it 
is something that may be eliminated from the scenario easily if you do not 
need these things.

/var/log/messages gives me this:

May 31 18:10:24 relay postfix/smtpd[4662]: fatal: open database
/etc/aliases.db: No such file or directory

however I did run the command newaliases which did create the aliases
file under /etc/mail/aliases with the aliases.db file being under there
as well as under /etc.

Currently no mail is being relayed throughout the domain so I can tell
that it's not working as even the /var/log/maillog file is telling me
that messages are queued but not sent if I use:

mail -s test em...@address.com

test

^D

Can someone please help me work out what is causing Postfix to fail as
I've managed to migrate my config from Linux to Solaris with not as many
issues and problems as this so it really beats me...

Many thanks,


Kaya
 


Kaya,


You may need to edit the following
   alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
   alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases

and run BOTH   'newaliases' and 'postalias /etc/aliases' depending on
your setup.

restart postfix for good measure


if you telnet to your postfix IP and get the 220 banner, postfix is
happy with the config and should work as config'd.

if after establishing a telnet session, you don't get any banner,
postfix is still having problems with something.  start looking at
logs again.
   


Thanks so much Tim!!! :-)

I hadn't used the

'postalias /etc/aliases'

command at all so running it now actually made the system work pretty 
well..


At least I haven't restarted the Jail yet but so far everything works!

I just hope this stays permanently as I find Jails a bit less stable 
then Solaris Zones which is what I'm trying to mimic with them; however, 
it might just be because I don't know how to use them yet as I've only 
just learned about how to create them and run simple services in them. 
Meaning that my statement is probably wy premature!!


Now if I could just figure out how to start Squid through the rc.d 
scripts rather then running manually as root user as per my other 
posting that would be really cool...



Best Regards,

Kaya

 It was accidentally marked as OpenSolaris-specific.

I would infer from the responses to your original question that you probably got 
what the list has to offer on THE. It does not seem to be a very active project. 
If you can not find a mailing list or an IRC channel, you may well be stuck with 
figuring it out. I worked on SPF and wrote a monitoring tool for it back in the 
day. Kate (KDE) and TextPad (Winders) have most if not all the features I can 
remember as being things other editors do not generally have, e.g., block

Using '=' within test(1) brackets should be fine.

As noted by Chris and the sh(1) man page, '[' is a built-in equivalent
of test(1).  The correct syntax for an expression inside those brackets
requires *spacing*, i.e. [ expression ], and not [expression ], as in
your example.

You need a space after the opening [ or it doesn't parse correctly.

As Chris said, it's another name for test, so think of it as a word,
i.e., something delimited by whitespace.

 I know that attempting to change from i386 to amd64 is is not possible

 The proper procedure for such an upgrade is as follows:
 

 If the thought of reformatting your system is scary, because you don't
 have backups or aren't sure they are comprehensive or work, then solve
 that problem, rather than trying to invent workarounds to cover for
 bad system administration. It will serve you much better in the long
 run.
 This isn't my question. I know how to currently perform the upgrade.

 My question is
 a) is it possible in theory to allow binary upgrades to be done?
 and b) if yes how much work would it take?

In theory, yes, it is possible; in practice, in limited scope, it is
practical to do so. I have done it, and have the ability to do so at
will.

As for widespread use, the COMPAT_FREEBSD32 option needs to be fixed
first, because as it stands now a 64bit kernel with a 32bit userland
is not complete, for example, on 8.0, a 32bit ifconfig cannot set an
ip address on an interface, because of ioctl incompatibility. This
prevents the intermediate step of running a 32bit userland with a
64bit kernel (though it can be sidestepped by segregating the
architecture specific parts of the userland).

Full 32bit support on 64bit kernels has other, more widespread
benefits then an after install sidegrade. Work is already moving in
this direction, as it's a natural progression for architecture
support.

Hmmm I have successfully run vi from a partition on 
a 32M flash card in 32M of RAM

The RAM also had memory disks for /var and /tmp.

The entire system was dynamically linked so a lot of 
space was saved by that build technique

The box was an embedded system running SNMP, gsmsmd and a few
oter thing as a real time network monitor for the Melbourne 2006
Commonwealth Games and the Asian Games a year or so later in Doha, Qatar


the box (still) runs on FreeBSD 4  and was built this way
  https://neon1.net/misc/minibsd.html 

the author did also make similar builds available for FreeBSD 5 and 6


NOTE all these have been replaced by nanobsd, but the techniques are
still useful, especially if you are pushed for space.
