Huawei 3g Modem
Hello, i have a Huawei EC-325 Modem which is connected to my Computer running FreeBSD 6.3 with a mini-USB Cable, and supposedly is supported by the ubsa driver, as described here "http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ubsa&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+6.3-RELEASE ". I modified my /boot/loader.conf to yield the following: ubsa_load="YES" ucom_load="YES" After rebooting, kldstat shows the above modules loaded. When i re-insert my Huawei Modem, dmesg displays: ucom0: Huawei Technologies Huawei Mobile, rev 1.01/0.00, addr 2 My ppp.conf looks like this: default: set log Phase Chat LCP IPCP CCP tun command ident user-ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) set device /dev/cuaU0 set speed 230400 set dial "ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 \ \"\" AT OK-AT-OK AT&FE0V1X1&D2&C1S0=0 OK \\dATDT\\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT" set timeout 180# 3 minute idle timer (the default) enable dns # request DNS info (for resolv.conf) three: set phone \#77 set authname card set authkey card disable ipv6cp set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 add default HISADDR But when i run ppp -ddial three , ppp.log reports this output: Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: Phase: Using interface: tun0 Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: Phase: deflink: Created in closed state Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: default: ident user- ppp VERSION (built COMPILATIONDATE) Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: default: set device / dev/cuaU0 Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: default: set speed 230400 Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: default: set dial ABORT BUSY ABORT NO\sCARRIER TIMEOUT 5 "" AT OK-AT-OK AT&FE0V1X1&D2&C1S0=0 OK \dATDT\T TIMEOUT 40 CONNECT Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: default: set timeout 180 Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: default: enable dns Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: three: set phone #77 Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: three: set authname card Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: three: set authkey Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: three: disable ipv6cp Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: three: set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[824]: tun0: Command: three: add default HISADDR Jan 28 15:32:57 testbed ppp[825]: tun0: Phase: PPP Started (ddial mode).

passive ftp transfer with pkg_add
Hello, I have been trying to install KDE by using pkg_add -r kde but the download is always failing. Reading man pkg_add I see a reference to change the FTP mode to passive if the download constantly fails. However, man does not say which file should be edited to change it. I tried pkgtools.conf but I have not found anything about FTP transfer mode in there. Can you advise which file needs to be edited? Also: "Note: If you wish to use passive mode ftp in such transfers, set the variable FTP_PASSIVE_MODE to some value in your environment." What value should be set for FTP_PASSIVE_MODE? Any value?

That's interesting, but the *installed* copy of devel/fpc-fcl-base may
be older than the available version in `/usr/ports'. Many programs
install an `xxx-config' script too, which can be queried at runtime,
i.e.:
$ net-snmp-config --version
5.3.1
This runs from ${LOCALBASE} and it is *always* the same as the installed
version of the net-snmp port.
Maybe a similar script can be added to the devel/fpc-fcl-base port, if
one is not already part of it?
In a similar vein, the editors/emacs* ports support installing
extensions in multiple subdirs of ${LOCALBASE} by switching make
variables depending on the value of ${EMACS_PORT_NAME}.
It's probably more work to make devel/fpc-fcl-base tunable like this,
but it is going to be safer than assuming that the /usr/ports/lang/fpc
version is actually the same as the installed version. This assumption
is only true until the next CVSup of the ports tree, or until portsnap
fetches a newer version of lang/fpc.
I'm *not* a ports hacker, so some of the above may be false and all of
it should be taken with a grain of salt, but I'm sure our freebsd-ports
guys can help :) It's definitely worth asking them for the best way to
implement something like this.

The port I am developing builds and installs a software called nbc
[1], [2]. It is written in Pascal and uses the freepascal compiler [3]
coming from lang/fpc port and some other pascal libraries called units
coming from devel/fpc-fcl-base. These units are installed into
/usr/local/lib/fpc/, where portversion of_fpc is
the version of the freepascal compiler as defined in PORTVERSION
variable in fpc's Makefile. Currently it is 2.2.0. I do not want to
hardcode that number in nbc port's Makefile - I want to extract it on
the fly from fpc port's Makefile, this is why I am doing this trick.

Well, it looks as tho the remote hosts (like magnesium.net)
are rejecting my mail. I was wrong a couple days ago when Isaid that
MASQUERADE_AS() and FEATURE() were successfuly rewriting my
envelope. Further tests ptoved that. And while it's easy enough to ssh
over
here (aristotle) and run mutt, U'd rather figure out the mutt/imap
opttions as the mutt manual deetails. I haave control of the
entire ``thought.org'' dmain. The complications are that my DNS
records may not be correctly configured. Also that my nice,
new, bulletproof firewall may be an issue, altho I doubr it.

My network looks llike this:
INTERNET -> Firewall ->
sage [ which runs one jail with DNS, web, and mail ]
sage feeds my desktops, one laptop, and other Windows
computers.
For reasons that are beyond me, working on desktop "tao" and
going thru aristotle's IMAP service, the FROM remains
``tao.thought.org'' when mail goes out the wire. Ionly have
one sendmail now--on aristotle--and that was where I put the
MASQUERADE_AS/FEATURE lines. How/why sendmail isn't dooing this
is beyond me.

I think that *I* am my SMART_HOST! This, according to my ISP
who doesn't seem eager to deal with my configs. Better, IMO,
to figure out this confusion and get this working at my end.
I'll try to define local host names (class w); see if that
helps.

Try the BSD-specific syntax which uses bang-equal assignment to grab the
output of a shell command and assign it to a make variable:
FPCVERSION!= shell cmd here
i.e. something like:
FPCVERSION!= make -f ${PORTSDIR}/lang/fpc/Makefile -V PORTVERSION
I'm curious though. Why do you have to find the value of the
{PORTVERSION} from a Ports makefile?
Perhaps there is already a `standard' feature of the Ports which can do
something similar. Have you asked around in freebsd-ports?

I do use BSD make and not GNU make, but your examples gave me a hint
what I should search on google and I found the exact syntax:
FPCVERSION!=make -f ${PORTSDIR}/lang/fpc/Makefile -V PORTVERSION
The assignment is done by the bang equals sign "!=" and I found it

Aloha Matthias,
I am having the same ftp problem on servers that are on an ATM 5 IP
circuit. There is no NAT involved with one of these. The outbound FTP
goes out but I cant get the files to list when I go inbound from
outside on an recognized IP.
SSH on the same box works fine.
It would make my day to get this working.

Try running the mergebase.sh script at /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/mergebase.sh. My guess is that in the past you began the upgrade path from 6.9 to 7.x but didn't quite finish the procedure (note that is very much a guess). You should probably read through the script before you run it, just in case your system isn't set up as it expects. > > So I guess I'm gonna do a clean install of all of Xbut can you tell > me which packages I should remove exactly? Depends very much on what you have installed - pkg_info(1)'s -r and -R options will help you to build up an overview of what you need to remove/update, if mergebase doesn't work. It's a good idea to save a list of currently-installed ports to refer to in the event this all goes *pop*. Good luck!

Outgoing FTP connections with pf and ftp-proxy
Hi list,
I'm trying to get outgoing FTP sessions to work with pf and
ftp/ftp-proxy in a NAT environment.
My simple config on a test machine looks like this:
--

localnet = "192.168.0.0/24"
tcp_services = "{ ssh, domain, www, https, ftp }"
udp_services = "{ domain }"
nat on $int_if from $localnet to any -> ($int_if)
rdr pass proto tcp from any to any port ftp -> 127.0.0.1 port 8021
block all
pass from $localnet to any keep state
pass proto udp to any port $udp_services keep state
pass out proto tcp to any port $tcp_services keep state
pass in proto tcp from any to any user proxy keep state
pass in proto tcp from any to any port ssh keep state

Re: How to backup the users
Ivan "Rambius" Ivanov wrote: I was only unsure how to proceed with the users backup. If users are the only thing you wish to back up: /home /etc/group /etc/master.passwd You can backup system files (/etc, /usr/local/etc, /var) if you want but that's another topic. Some hints: 1. Check if there are users who have their home-dir outside /home... 2. Check /tmp to see if users have files there (they shouldn't count on those being preserved, that's not what /tmp is for, but you might want to offer a little bit of extra service by doing this anyway) 3. There might be slight differences between the current /etc/group and /etc/master.passwd and the ones on the new system. So, instead of blindly copying the old ones onto the new system, I suggest you add the relevant entries in the old files to the new files by hand (or script). 4. If you copy the encrypted passwords, then users don't need to set a new password after you've reinstalled the system. 5. Keep track of UIDs/GIDs: you might need to do some chowning to give everybody their files back if their (numerical) UIDs/GIDs have changed. 6. If you don't need to repartition your disks, it might be an option to just leave /home alone during the reinstall (set the newfs flag to N). That leaves /home untouched and you can just mount it afterwards.

A good, general rule of thumb for backing up a system is: /etc /usr/local/etc /home /var /var is the wildcard here ... /etc and /usr/local/etc are generally very small. /home can be huge, but if it is, it's probably because there is a lot of important data there. But /var can be large with a lot of stuff that you may not want to back up. Do you need /var/log, for example? Frankly, if you have enough space to back up, I recommend you back up the entire system and restore selectively. Do you have, for example, a database in /usr/local/pgsql?

Hi, Have you read http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/ru_RU.KOI8-R/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html ? I can't read russian, but you need chapter 8 in the handbook. -- Pieter Baele [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 27 Jan 2008, at 08:38, JSCB Alokabank wrote: Please help me I'am beginer in FreeBSD I try to rebuild kernel files for optimizations system.

Re: Syslog warnings: 15 x No buffer space available
Probably you shoul look to: netstat -m 4/1421/1425 mbufs in use (current/cache/total) 0/614/614/25600 mbuf clusters in use (current/cache/total/max) netstat -Lan give you a link to good article. It`s in russian, but you can see it for commands and sysctl variables which may help you. http://www.opennet.ru/base/net/tune_freebsd.txt.html Anyone who could point me to how to remedy this?

The other common case where you'll get this is forgetting a . in a BIND zone file, which causes it to append the domain name again -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel PGP: 8A48 EF36 5E9F 4EDA 5A8C 11B4 26F9 01F1 27AF AECB signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

FreeBSD cannot use the CMD640 controller, as that controller has a hardware bug that will corrupt the filesystem. Unfortunately that controller was popular on Pentium 75/90/100 motherboards. The old wd disk driver contained a workaround for this bug but the workaround was never carried forward into the ata driver.

Re: formatting disk for FreeBSD : Detecting IDE Primary Master ... [Press F4 to skip]
In any case, I suppose the OP could just use a floppy boot disk, like slackware's: http://slackware.mirrors.easynews.com/linux/slackware/slackware/isolinux/sbootmgr/ http://tinyurl.com/2evgaa Which should bypass any (most) moronic bioses. any. i use bootable CD for this. very easy to create, and you can fit whole /boot easily. FreeBSD can use any IDE drive on any IDE controller, including 500GB drive on ISA 486, that's all just BIOS problems. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
