Re: Freebsd 4.9, 5.1 5.2
You'll have the mount the floppy drive first by means of the mount command. Check out man mount for more details. To make things easier, you can edit your /etc/fstab file and add a floppy entry there (if it isn't already existing) here is an example: /dev/fd0/floppy msdosfs rw,noauto 0 0 About your printer, I'm afraid I can't really help you with that. I never got my printer working either. Unix and printing still isn't as easy as it is with Bill's OS.

4.9R Install - Couldn't open FTP connection to ftp[#].freebsd.org: Not logged in
Trying to install 4.9R from the boot floppies. The first NIC I tried was the built-in Intel Pro 100 VE. dmesg displayed what I think was the NIC, because it found the MAC address of the NIC and at that stage it was the only NIC device plugged into the system. So I gave up on the Intel NIC, because it would not resolve the FTP addresses, even though, on the DNS server the address (of the FTP servers) were in the DNS cache. Now I get: Couldn't open FTP connection to ftp[#].freebsd.org: Network is down. This is still on the Intel NIC. I have now plugged in a DLINK DFE 530TXS, which shows up as ste0 Sundance ST201 PCI ethernet card And with it, I get: Couldn't open FTP connection to ftp[#].freebsd.org: Not logged in So I assume it is resolve the name OK, but just can't login. In addition, the NIC is getting IP info from the DHCP server. Therefore, I believe it's not a physical problem (lights are a blinkin'), nor a logical one, because it gets an IP from the DHCP server, or at least retrieves this information OK. I have tried over a dozen of the ftp[1,2,3,4,5,6,ca, etc.].freebsd.org sites listed. How can I make sure that I have network connectivity throughout the install? How do I properly exit out of the connecting to the FTP part of the install that can sit there paused for more than 15 minutes? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

usb umass flash drive mount/umount questions
Ok - I've got a lexar 64Mb flash drive - aka 'thumb' drive. I've modified my usbd.conf to automatically mount the device on insertion. I have a single slice and a single FreeBSD partition with a ufs filesystem on it. I am wondering if there is any way I can have the device unmounted automagiclaly on removal - it seems that by the time the OS gets a message about the usb device detaching, that it is to late to flush pending writes to the device since the device is already gone. So, are there other fstypes, or some kind of filesystem tuning or mount flags I can use to say always flush all writes synchronously so that if the device disappeared it would be consistent and have the right contents. And, on top of that, is there some way that I can convince the OS to not barf when trying to unmount a device that has already gone?Or can I hook the usb code to somehow do an umount before the daX device goes away? I _think_ that a dos filesystem might meet the first requirement, but how can I do the second? Even then, I'd rather not have to use a dos filesystem since it limits possible filenames. This still doesn't take care of unmounting the device properly at removal. I know there are packages like mtools that just use the device file and never actually mount the device -- this isn't really acceptable either... For now, I have a ufs filesystem, I automatically mount on insertion and I manually have to unmount. Anything better to be doing?

Re: Transferring the root filesystem to a ramdisk?
in an attempt to save power on FreeBSD servers, I'm
trying to replace the hdd with a ramdisk. The idea is to:
Thanks to all who helped, on and off-list. To sum up:
* Spin down and up of ATA devices: /usr/ports/sysutils/ataidle
or SCSI devices: camcontrol {start | stop} device
* Changing the root device of an already running kernel
is very hard, and should be avoided at all costs.
(A suggestion was to modify loader(8), and have
the kernel use a chunk of pre-loaded memory as initial
root device a.k.a. md(4). However, this would involve
a _lot_ of work.)
* /sbin/init could chroot() to the new root device.
(This is possible, but requires easy access to the underlying
root fs where init was originally located. = disk must
spin up on request, so it can't be completely turned off.)
* diskless(8) is possible, though only when connectivity
is available.
Since our intended use is to embed FreeBSD in moving robots
that are connected with each other through an ad hoc mobile
network, where the radio links are both intermittent and
low-bandwidth; and since the systems are not always well
connected or reachable, diskless(8) is not a solution.
We've finally decided to use flash ram for the root device, and
avoid the complete issue of moving root.
Thanks again for all the help and insights.

Re: Communication (Mail Gateway concept) with MS Exchange
Hi, I'm coming into this slightly late, but you can use fetchmail to hand-roll a solution or (I expect) to collect mail for IMGate. Fetchmail can collect from a POP3 mailbox and forward using SMTP (fetchmail keyword: smtphost) to an Exchange server on a private ip address on a LAN. To the Exchange server, it's as though it were the mail exchanger for the domain, fetchmail is transparent. So mail gets delivered to individual mailboxes as normal. You can also tell fetchmail not to add any headers, such as Received (keyword: set invisible). If there is scanning in the system, fetchmail can respond rationally to most of the error messages generated. This is a very quick and simple basic solution to the overall issue, but doesn't give you spam or virus scanning. You could set those up on the same gateway machine using a system that (like IMGate) wants to act as a forwarder, scanning and then sending on to another (defined) smtp server (your Exchange machine). There are lots of these about, including IMGate. From a glace at the IMGate website, I'd have thought you could install fetchmail without repercussions. If not, there are other scanning packages available. Exact choice depends whether you want to use a commercial or a free system. PWR. Danny wrote: Thanks for the response.

linux_ipc is emulated in /sys/machine/linux/linux_machdep.c, and in

#define LINUX_MSGCTL14
so the switch() in linux_ipc ends up calling linux_msgctl in
/sys/compat/linux/linux_ipc.c.
Do you have SYSV message queues enabled in your kernel? Stick options
SYSVMSG in your config file and rebuild, or kldload sysvmsg if you
have the module.
If you do have sysvmsg loaded, you may have to start adding printfs in
linux_msgctl() to trace which call is failing and why.

Help to configure FreeBSD as server
I configure my home FreeBSD OS as server. I run FreeBSD under WinXP with VMWare Workstation 4. On my work, Web Programmers company, FreeSD is configured so (DNS under FreeBSD is configured for zone office.net with hosts host1 host2), that from WinXP I can ping host1 and host2 without domain name: windows xp console: ping host1 - ok ping host2 - ok ping host1.office.net - ok ping host2.office.net - ok XP PC is user of workgroup, DNS-suffix is empty. Only DNS in LAN settings is entered. That's all. I have configured my home DNS under FreeBSD with office template. I have entered DNS, but at home I can ping only full host names (with domains): windows xp console: ping host1 - no reply ping host2 - no reply ping host1.office.net - ok ping host2.office.net - ok Why? I can't understand. I try to solve this problem 5 days, but nothing helps me. When I entered DNS suffix: office.net - OK.

Re: Help to configure FreeBSD as server
I think you can solve this by adding the DNS suffix to the search list in /etc/resolv.conf, eg: nameserver x.x.x.x search domain.tld This will make your box try adding domain.tld to the host you're trying to lookup. (If you use subdomains you can add them too) (Or use DHCP to pass the DNS suffix on to the clients) hth I configure my home FreeBSD OS as server. I run FreeBSD under WinXP with VMWare Workstation 4.

[5.2.1-RC, IPFW] Traffic Shaping
Hi all, I am using FreeBSD 5.2.1-RC + IPFW2 + DUMMYNET to do traffic shaping. This works well for my setup. I have the following configuration: The machine has 2 NIC's, xl0, dc0. The kernel is configured to do bridging. The bridged packets is passed to IPFW (net.link.ether.bridge.ipfw=1). I shape traffic this way: The bridge is setup between a router and an internal mail server. I am limiting bandwith using the following rules: pipe 1 config bw 16KBytes/s pipe 2 config bw 12KBytes/s and then: add pipe 1 tcp from any to any 25 (limit incoming traffic towards smtp) add pipe 2 tcp from any 110 to any (limit outgoing traffic from pop3) Yesterday, while browsing through Absolute BSD by Michael Lucas I read an interesting part: You cannot shape incoming traffic the way that I do at the moment. Now, my question: How can I limit the incoming traffic towards my smtp server properly? Any advice would be apreciated.

Correct. We've talked about enhancing the scripts so that this gets included automatically, but it can be problematic since the source location of the packages might be unknown at the time of the build.

Kris The 'rerelease' target will start up a build where it left off, without cleaning the CHROOTDIR area first. The RELEASENOUPDATE flag will prevent the scripts for doing a cvs update on the tree. Both of these are useful for restarting a paused build. Also, depending on what actions you want to modify or restart, you might need to remove certain makefile marker files at $CHROOTDIR/usr/obj/usr/src/release.

Re: [5.2.1-RC, IPFW] Traffic Shaping
There isnt much you can really do as to shape incomming traffic, however you can limit how fast you accept the incomming data. (At least this is what im used to from my little experience with linux.) I tried* the following rule, and in theroy it sounds up to the job: ipfw add pipe 1 tcp from not me to me smtp *)when I say tried I really mean ipfw didnt complain, but no traffic actually saw it. Obviously you can replace 'me' with your actual ip and 'smtp' with 25, but I find its easier to read english.

Re: True IMAP Trash Folder
I use mutt with an imap server. I've tied macros to specific keys that save messages to INBOX.trash, which effectively deletes them from the current folder. I go to the .trash folder and use 'D' to clean it out on a regular basis, sometimes finding one or two that I didn't want to delete. It requires folder hooks to change the underlying behavior for the 'd', '^d' and 'D' keys based on the current folder, but it works like a charm. The mutt site documents how to do most of this, but if you like, I can dig up my macros for you. HTH Lou Lou, I think I got it covered. My new solution seems to work. Thanks though! -Matt Maybe I can offer another way to do it. I use courier-imap as imap server. It offers a configuration variable called IMAP_MOVE_EXPUNGE_TO_TRASH. As the name implies, mails that are deleted from non-trash folders (deleting = deleting + expunging) are moved to the trash folder. In combination with IMAP_EMPTYTRASH=Trash:7, which removes mails from the trash folder after 7 days, this solution is comfortable, as long as the mail client has support for deleting/expunging in one step (I use sylpheed with X, which does this well, and mutt does it well enough too. I have not used evolution). Basically I don't use the classical IMAP way of deleting mails (just marking them with the deleted flag) at all. - Benjamin pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: [5.2.1-RC, IPFW] Traffic Shaping
Ok, so miss read the question a bit... (Was thinking the bridge was the mail server too - used to my own hardware shortage :) But still, I think you'll get it working by swapping 'me' with the ip of your mail server.

Virtual Hosting Aliases with FreeBSD 5.2
Hello, I'm trying to setup multiple IP boxes using FreeBSD 5.2-Release. If I enter the ifconfig sis0 alias0 inet x.x.x.x 255.255.255.255 I get a bad value error. Similarly, if I put it in /etc/rc.conf with the prerequisite underscores and reboot the machine, the resulting ifconfig -a only shows the primary IP address. Did the procedure change in the 5.x series? A look at the FreeBSD handbook on line still shows this to be the way to accomplish this: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-virtual-hosts.html I found that I can use ifconfig sis0 inet x.x.x.x 255.255.255.255 alias. It will add one additional IP to the system, but if I try to add two, I lock up the Ethernet connection. (I've now got to drive back down to the co-lo facility and reboot two of the machines because of it.) Anyone else ran into this issue? Anyone found the solution? Thanks in advance.

Re: Acu Cobol 6.0 for Linux

If you do have sysvmsg loaded, you may have to start adding printfs in

Thanks. With your hints I made an interesting discovery that allowed
me to improve the situation dramatically.
In Linux's /usr/include/linux/ipc.h there is an interesting comment:
/*
* Version flags for semctl, msgctl, and shmctl commands
* These are passed as bitflags or-ed with the actual command
*/
#define IPC_OLD 0 /* Old version (no 32-bit UID support on many
architectures) */
#define IPC_64 0x0100 /* New version (support 32-bit UIDs, bigger
message sizes, etc. */
In fact linux_msgctl receives a command 0x102 instead of 2. Although
the following patch fixes the problem related to msgctl, I'm not quite
sure it's enough to say that Acu Cobol runs perfectly on FreeBSD.
Actually I've got the feeling msgrcv still doesn't work as expected,
but I might be wrong.
I'll probably reach a certain confidence in the following days.
A side note. What is the impact of this IPC_64 flag on the FreeBSD
code? Can we ignore it, or does it mean that the Linux emulator is
outdated regarding this new flag?

ipv6 gif0
Hi! I have a problem with setting up my IPv6 box. Scripts are ok, and gifs are made but only one works. The one I start first works and others dont, doesnt matter wich one is first, but all other that follow link on the first one. I allready had a box like this one, and everything worked perfectly (had 4 gifs with ipv6). When i reistalled (same version of freebsd, same pc) this problem ocured. The only thing that changed is that I used Cabel connection before (no extra settings, just enterd IP), and now I use ADSL (PPPoE, NAT enabled). So maybe this could be a problem ? I'm kinda new to this system but I allready search for bugs/errors that I could made and I didnt find anything. So now I'm writeing this email to you, because I dont know how to fix this.

The RELEASENOUPDATE flag will prevent the scripts for doing a cvs update on the tree. Both of these are useful for restarting a paused build.

Re: Acu Cobol 6.0 for Linux
In the last episode (Feb 04), Walter C. Pelissero said: A side note. What is the impact of this IPC_64 flag on the FreeBSD code? Can we ignore it, or does it mean that the Linux emulator is outdated regarding this new flag? Linux IPC_64 support was added to the 5.x tree over a year ago but never got merged back to 4.x.

RE: Rockwell Modem
You understanding of the external modem process is deficient. ns3# ps -aux root 476 0.0 1.4 1232 832 ?? I 11:26AM 0:00.03 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 ttyd0 This has nothing to do with your modem, but everything to do with the Hylafax software application. Since you said that your modem lights blink during boot you can assume FBSD is connected to it through the PCs serial ports. Change your subject to ask for help on Hylafax setup and not modem help. If the following instructions result on no connected message, then check you PC bios and verify the com ports an enabled. Determining if your External serial modem is connected to FBSD FBSD has a program called 'tip'. This program talks directly to the physical PC com ports and to the logical serial com ports, commonly referred to as com1, com2, and com3, and com4. External modems use com1 and com2 because there are only two com port nipples on the back of the PC. You are going to use the 'tip' command to test if FBSD can communicate with your modem. This test will verify that FBSD can connect to the external serial modem and also that it will respond to the Hayes commands you will issue to it. 1. The 'tip comx' command uses the /etc/remote file for the definition of comx. I have listed the whole group of comx statements here so you can better find them in the /etc/remote file. # Finger friendly shortcuts com1:dv=/dev/cuaa0:br#9600:pa=none: com2:dv=/dev/cuaa1:br#9600:pa=none: com3:dv=/dev/cuaa2:br#9600:pa=none: com4:dv=/dev/cuaa3:br#9600:pa=none: As you can see this file has not been updated to reflect the serial port baud rate of the modern modems currently on the market. These statements are configured for 9600 baud legacy modems which have not been manufactured in 10 years. The serial port baud rate is the speed that the serial port controller talks to the modem hardware. It's not the speed the modem connects to the remote modem. 2. Change all the 9600 to 115200 which is the serial port baud rate for 56K modems. ee /etc/remote# and make it look like this # Finger friendly shortcuts com1:dv=/dev/cuaa0:br#115200:pa=none: com2:dv=/dev/cuaa1:br#115200:pa=none: com3:dv=/dev/cuaa2:br#115200:pa=none: com4:dv=/dev/cuaa3:br#115200:pa=none: 3. After saving your changes you are now ready to test your modem. On the command line enter Tip comX where X is the com port your external modem is on. chooses are com1 or com2 Connectedis displayed meaning 'tip' has made contact with the external modem. Type AT and then hit enter. 'AT' is the Hayes attention command. 'OK' is displayed. This means the Hayes attention command was received by the modem and issued it's normal reply of 'OK'. Your modem configuration has passed the test and is functional. 4. You now have to 'train' the modem to use 115200 as the internal default baud speed. Enter the 'AT' Hayes command 10 times, you will receive the 'OK' reply from the modem each time. This is an very important step that has an very large impact on the performance of your modems throughput, do not bypass this step. 5.

Is there some incompatibily between BIOS and FreeBSD, since the drive works very well in Windows environment?

Did you erase anything? Is this a remote machine? (If anyone else new to this problem and would like to help, you can use google or the archives, or I can catch you up if you'd like) Many thanks already to all who have helped so far. You can boot 4.9, right?

UDMA ICRC Error FreeBSD 4.9, falling back to PIO mode
I get a following error on boot ad1s1a: UDMA ICRC error reading fsbn 511 of 244-255 (ad1s1 bn 511; cn 0 tn 8sn 7) retrying ad1s1a: UDMA ICRC error reading fsbn 511 of 244-255 (ad1s1 bn 511; cn 0 tn 8sn 7) retrying ad1s1a: UDMA ICRC error reading fsbn 511 of 244-255 (ad1s1 bn 511; cn 0 tn 8sn 7) retrying ad1s1a: UDMA ICRC error reading fsbn 511 of 244-255 (ad1s1 bn 511; cn 0 tn 8sn 7) retrying falling back to PIO mode BTW, this all happened after a power failure. At first I was prompted to go into the single user mode, but then after second reboot that doesn't even happen anymore. Just the error message. I switch a IDE cable to the hard drive, and now, I don't even get the error message anymore. The system stuck at Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad1s1a And it stuck there. I can reboot by ctr+alt+del I boot the system using the FreeBSD Fixit disk. However, I can't seem to see all the hard drive partitions in /dev. Following is my partition setup.

Updating the OS after an install
I'm running a freshly installed FreeBSD 4.9 system, and have most of the kinks worked out. In going through the manual, I've reached the point where it tells you how to install software. I've updated the ports tree, and decided to try my hand at installing a package. I chose xine to work with. So I cd'd to the approperiate directory, and did make make install. The system errored out, saying that some of my other packages weren't the latest versions. (This happened twice. libogg and libvorbis, IIRC. But that detail isn't important.) I was able to go to the directory of the packages that needed to be updated, do a make deinstall, and then reinstalled those packages. Which allowed xine to be installed without a hitch. (I haven't actually tested it, as I'm working remotely, but from all indications from looking at the output there wasn't a problem. In retrospect, perhaps I should have chosen a different package to test things out. Ahh well.) At this point, I'm willing to bet that it's a fairly safe bet to say that there are other packages on my system that are in need of updating. Is there a way to universally update what's on my system to whatever's in the ports tree?

Re: Booting Problem
Here's some questions: If the server was idle (e.g. absolutely no processes running aside from login shell and terminal and no disk access occurring) does it make sense that the filesystem would have had a problem after being improperly unmounted? Also, how long should an 'fsck' on a 500GB partition take? It's been running for almost 12 hours now, and the latest output is still Phase 1 - check blocks and sizes; is something wrong or is fsck still doing its thing?

It should have outputted something else between Phase 1 and FILE SYSTEM STILL DIRTY. Will fsck continue attempting to fix the filesystem? Have I suffered a total loss or is fsck still doing its thing? Read man fsck and its see also section. -- Rishi Chopra http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~rchopra ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
