I can just get the i386 vmware version and should install and run.
Last question is there a x86_64 bit Linux module?
No, unfortunately x86_64 linux binaries are not supported.
Is one I'm development?
I'm afraid I don't know. I suggest you try asking in the
freebsd-emulat...@freebsd.org mailing list.
I was well on my way of installing VMware-Player for i386 linux on FreeBSD
until I encountered these error messages.
Aug 8 20:44:09 BRSINC-VM02 kernel: linux: pid 12889 (dd): ioctl fd=0,
cmd=0x6d02 ('m',2) is not implemented
Aug 8 20:44:09 BRSINC-VM02 kernel: linux: pid 12896 (dd): ioctl fd=0,
cmd=0x6d02 ('m',2) is not implemented
The install script extracted the installer and began installing the rpms. I
have attached the verbose output file.
At this point should this be considered a linux emulator bug and reported as
such?
As I said, I don't use vmware and can't help you with that.
But I'm pretty sure that others are using it and might have
encountered the same problems. Please take this issue to
the freebsd-emulat...@freebsd.org mailing list.

VirtualBox: out of swap space
Hi,
I'm trying to have a few BSD VMs (4.7, 5.5, 6.2, 7.2, 8.1)
running under VirtualBox-OSE / FreeBSD-8.1-RELEASE-amd64
First problem:
Sometimes, when I start a VM, all other running VM stop,
their status switch to 'abort' (or whatever the
traduction is, here it's avorté).
Reading my /var/log/messages, I see a few
'pid (VirtualBox), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space'
I've got 8Gb of RAM, and so assumed I wouldn't need any swap.
Was I wrong?
Have I to reinstall my server to add some swap?
(and if so, how much?!)
btw, my PC (home) have the same HWare (core i7 930, 8Gb DDR3)
I can run two 8.1-RELEASE (amd64 + i386), and two debian
while host is running compiz and all that gay stuff...
(ArchLinux x86_64)
except VirtualBox, the server I'm having problems with, is
hosting some nfs shares and running ion2 (since VBoxVNC
segfaults... I need a WM). And that's it.
Second problem:
When I'm creating a disk (in VirtualBox), and while there's
some scp or so running on other guests, these guests display
some gvfs errors, about not finding ad0.
Sometimes, they just halt, and wait I pressed a key to reboot.
Third problem:
I already posted that on emulation this morning:
I can't boot FreeBSD-8.1-amd64. It's stuck in
'md0: preloaded image /boot/mfsroot x bytes 0xsomewhere'
nothing else happend...
I could have finished already if I just had installed a Linux
host in the first place...
I read so much posts recently, from FreeBSD/VBox users, saying
everything's working just fine.
I assumed it would be OK.
Obviously not...
Is there some hope sticking with BSD?
(if I can get rid of the swap and the 8.1 problems, it would
be fine enough)
I'm seriously thinking on dropping that BSD idea, and choosing
some random linux to make it work... (and maybe, try xen...)
What should I do?
Thanks for any advices.

Samuel,
It is generally a bad idea not to have a swap partition. I have 12GB
of memory and I even hit swap, though very little.
[tethys]:/home/rnejdl swapinfo -h
Device 1K-blocks UsedAvail Capacity
/dev/ada0s1b 4194304 4.5M 4.0G 0%
I have 4GB on mine and that is plenty.
I don't have answers for the below though.

chflags(1) unaware utilties
hi there, chflags(1) mentions that a few utilities including pax(1) aren't chflags aware yet. is there a list of all those utilties available somewhere? also: i don't quite understand why this is in the BUGS section of chflags(1) and not in the pax(1) manual itself [1]. this doesn't seem very logical, since the bug doesn't exist in chflags, but in pax not supporting chflags. so if someone decides to use pax and wants to know if there are any problem with it, there's no way for the average user to stumble upon the fact that chflags isn't supported in pax. in fact the pax(1) manual states that `pax -p e` will preserve everything. this is plain wrong! cheers. alex [1] http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=docs/135516 -- a13x ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

RE: Anti virus, anti spam step guide.
Hello. Thanks a lot for the advice. I have tried with spamassasin but for some reason can not having work correctly with sendmail. I am reading in detail documentation. I know this sounds like something stupid but I am starting my third try starting from zero, for some reason everything install correcly and at the end have a non receiving email installation (have checked port on inetd, under sendmail configuration, nothing). What I do not get is what components do I need. Just spamassasin or spamd only , anyway, learning and having fun with it until I can know how to do it. Otherwise instead of help that organization will be giving more problems besides the ones they have. I will try openwebmail. Thanks a lot. At 01:54 a.m. 08/08/2010, Marwan Sultan wrote: Hi..

Hello all. I am looking documentation for implementing, the easiest way anti virus and anti spam configuration for non tech users and out of the box after installing FreeBSD (actually using 7.3 Release). I have been working with it for some years but I am not an expert at all. I need to help some non-profit organizations that received some 2 year old computers as donation and they will use it for email services. They have not tech people, so the idea is that I can help them to implement that solution the easiest way so maybe one of the teacher there can try to replicate the solution. UNtil now I always have used Sendmail as it is installed, no filters besided the spamcop ones but that was enough for my personal use. I know some of you will tell that change to postfix or another MTA and that instead using POP3 that I have to use another tool (courier, fetchail, imap (any) etc etc). I ca do it for sur and I do not want to star a war , again, under what MTA is the best. I just would like to have the best and easiest solution for them. Once installed they only will be creating new accounts, changing paswords, deleting accounts. Nothing else. Ah, another thing if possible is to implement a webmail but that will be an extra gem if possible. Any resources? Any suggestions based in experience? (I have one machine of them that I will use for testing the solution).

ZFS practical application?
Hi folks, I've been reading about the ZFS file system, and I'm having a hard time understanding maybe the most practical business application(s)? I think I understand a little bit about it (from a conceptual perspective) that it's a self-healing 128 bit filesystem, better data integrity checking, etc. I have a small business ( 50 end users) and I'm wondering perhaps some examples that you might think would be most applicable for a FreeBSD server(s) and the ZFS filesystem? One of the things that seems like might be a detriment as well as an asset, is it's ability to expand as necessary, but then I'm wondering what prevents the filesystem from just running away? Are there any sites out there with perhaps a more laymen's explanation of ZFS? Comments?

As the other person wrote, the base system compiler suite and other base system utilities are configured and compiled to build and use amd64 binaries by default. There is only limited support for cross-building: on amd64, for example, there are some provisions for building and using 32-bit, i386 binaries; and the base system sources have some limited support for cross-building for other architectures, by setting certain variables in the build environment.
