Port: fontconfig
Greetings list, I am having a problem with fontconfig from ports. I wanted to update X11 to xorg on my alpha box. I read the 20040723 entry in /usr/ports/UPDATING and proceeded as instructed. Now the port build processing is barfing on the build of fontconfig. [ I didn't have the actual error message from the alpha box since it is at home, but I reproduced it on a FreeBSD/i386 machine ] The error message is : fcfreetype.c: In function `FcFreeTypeQuery': fcfreetype.c:300: syntax error before `psfontinfo' fcfreetype.c:759: `psfontinfo' undeclared (first use in this function) fcfreetype.c:759: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once fcfreetype.c:759: for each function it appears in.) gmake[2]: *** [fcfreetype.lo] Error 1 gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig/work/fontconfig-2.2.3/src' gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig/work/fontconfig-2.2.3' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/ports/x11-fonts/fontconfig.

Mail Server
I am about to begin the process of building a replacement mail server for our workgroup using FreeBSD and Sendmail. In addition to receiving mail from our primary MX and sending mail out our SMART_HOST, I would like the ability to enable our users to send and receive email directly from this server while at remote locations. My initial thought along the above lines is to enable smtps and/or SSL/TLS for sendmail, and the imap-uw port for imaps/pops. I have read section 21.10 in the FreeBSD handbook, but this only covers SMTP Authentication. I have also found and read http://www.puresimplicity.net/~hemi/freebsd/sendmail.html and it appears to cover most of what I need to do. Additionally I want to integrate SpamAssassin into the mix. I have found, read, and implemented the SpamAssassin Milter instructions at http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/Unix/spamassassin.php This appears to work well. Does anyone have any arguments about why I should do it this way rather than the "invoke spamc via procmail" method we use now? Lastly, this may seem silly, but how do I generate a certificate signing request for my imaps/pops/sendmail servers? I have generated a self signed certificate and I can accept it and it appears to be working. When I look at information regarding certificates at either Verisign or Thawte I have only found information about web server certificates. Is there any effective difference between a cert used for Apache and imaps/pops/sendmail? If anyone has suggestions, experiences, or pointers to more information I would greatly appreciate it.

Re: Amanda or Bacula
Yes! For amanda, the tape must be able to store the compressed dump file on one tape. Worst case scenario is that the 120 Gbyte partition is filled with uncompressable data making the dump file 120Gbytes. Amanda will need a tape drive which is capable of storing that on one tape. - Mike > So to clarify just so that I understand correctly: > > 1.

Losing routes !!
I have a machine that has been running 4.8-RELEASE for months flawlessly. I recently CVSup'd to RELENG_4_8 (now running 4.8-RELEASE-p8). The machine is losing routes. Specifically its default route and a route to the lan of one of its own interfaces. I can manually add the default route back, but it only lasts about 20 seconds until it mysteriously disappears. The machine has an Intel 1000baseSX card that is sub-interfaced using VLANs. There are 9 vlan interfaces in use (vlan0 through vlan8). It consistently loses its default route and the route to the lan `connected' to vlan8. Any suggestions how I can diagnose what is happening?

Re: How do I change the extensions on a slew of files
> from an sh type shell > for i in *.inc > do > z=`echo $i | sed -e "s/inc/htm/g"` > mv ${i} ${z} > done This won't give expected results for a file named "fooinc.inc". It will become "foohtm.htm". I realize that based on the file names given in the original email this doesn't appear to be an issue, but changing the sed command to sed -e 's/\.inc$/\.html/' may give better (more generally useful) results. Also note the ' instead of " so that the shell doesn't perform variable expansion within the sed command text. The shell will ignore the $ and instead sed uses it to match end of line or string in this case. - Mike ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Plus, if you log, you can then monitor the further > attempts Unfortunately anything you do at the local end will not prevent bandwidth from being consumed on your link. Once it hits your local firewall to be dropped the traffic has already consumed bandwidth on your link. This may or may not be a concern. If the DOS is consuming a great deal of bandwidth than it probably is a concern and you may try contacting the abuse@ or other support addresses at your ISP and ask if they can filter this traffic before it hits your link. If you do want to consider a local firewall (which is a very good idea indeed) you may consider using a FreeBSD box in bridging mode between the DSL link and the local LAN. This FreeBSD box can do layer 3 (IP) filtering in bridging (layer 2 forwarding) mode.

fxp0 only 300Kbits/sec ?
I am having a strange problem. I have this new Cisco Catalyst 2940T-24. On it I have 6 FreBSD/x86 boxes. The first 5 are running great. The 6th is only getting 300Kbits/sec out of its interface, but ... not right away after a reboot. I rebooted the host Saturday afternoon and I was again getting about 80Mbits/sec. Saturday night's backups ran great, and fast. So did Sunday's backups. But last night's backups are still running. My mrtg traffic graphs show that it is only getting 300Kbit/sec out of its interface. I confirmed this with an FTP directly to the host a few minutes ago (after killing off the backups). Nothing is mentioned in /var/log/messages. The switch claims the port is running at 100Mbits, full-duplex, as does the output of ifconfig.

FreeBSD NIS Server/Slave && DES
The FreeBSD Handbook section 19.8.11 appears to be out of date. The output of the method shown to see if the FreeBSD box is using DES or MD5 has no resemblance to what I see on my box. How do I configure FreeBSD to use DES? Specifically if I run a FreeBSD NIS master how do I get rpc.yppasswdd and yppasswd to play nice? If I run yppasswd on my FreeBSD NIS client my password entry in our password file on the NIS master ends up with an MD5 password so I can no longer log into my Solaris NIS client. - Mike Hogsett ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I would also recommend to treat your first many installs as throw away. That is write them off up front, expect to reinstall. This way you can play with many aspects of the system without the fear of breaking it, you have already decided it will be reinstalled. After you have learned more you can stop this behavior and keep it stable. This has the added benefit that you learn a great deal from breaking things... :) What Luke recommends above is great (making up tasks to do such as installing a web server). You can build on that too. Install an apache web server with ssl, php4, and a mysql or postgresql database and use that to install PHP nuke. Set up a DNS server and learn about zone files, etc. and then run two, or more, PHP nuke websites from one IP address. You can go on and on with this. It becomes alot more fun when you start putting several things together and get your machine to do something cool.

Re: SMP kernel installation
You need to recompile the kernel with the SMP options turned on, install the kernel and reboot. On a reasonable modern machine takes less than 10 minutes. See /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC and the FreeBSD Handbook. - Mike > Hi, > For a multiprocessor machine,to install FreeBSD,is > something extra needs to be done from what will be > done to install the OS for a uni processor machine?I > mean is there anything different to be installed for a > symmetric multi processor machine? > > thanks > shubha > > __ > Do You Yahoo!? > Everything you'll ever need on one web page > from News and Sport to Email and Music Charts > http://uk.my.yahoo.com > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

PCMCIA device timeouts
Greetings, I installed FreeBSD (4.7) on a laptop today. I did a network install using a LinkSys PCMPC100 (shows up as ed1). Install was flawless. Rebooted the machine, performed some additional port installs (over the network) and did a cvsup to RELENG_4_7. Everything was fine. I shutdown the machine and brought it home. Now I am getting messages such as : /kernel: ed1: device timeout I also get a similar messages if I stick in my Cisco Aironet 350 PCMCIA wireless card. It is not able to arp for its gateway. tcpdump shows no traffic at all. (except originating from this host if I try a ping). The LinkSys card shows link, but its activity light is on solid. I have tried both PCMCIA slots. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. - Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Re: cheat sheet? apache, mod_ssl, mod_php, mysql
Sorry to jump into the middle of this thread, but I have recently installed Apache 1.3x, mod_php4, and mysql on a 4.7 box. I simply installed apache from the ports, mod_php from the ports and mysql from the ports. The mod_php port asks what support you want built in before building, an option there was mysql support. It all just worked. I did have to tweak my httpd.conf file a bit but what I had to edit/enter was given to me by the mod_php4 build output. - Mike > /usr/ports/databases/mysqlserver323 doesn't seem to > build any shared objects.. :-( > > Could I get the same results by preloading > the daemon (program) file? > > KDK > > From: "Barry Byrne" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "DaleCo Help Desk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Roger Williams" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 10:39 AM > Subject: RE: cheat sheet? apache, mod_ssl, mod_php, mysql > > > > You could try adding something like this in your apache startup > file: > > > > LD_PRELOAD="/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so"; > > export LD_PRELOAD > > > > Modify for your mysql lib location and add these two lines before > the call > > to start httpd. > > > > Cheers, > > > > Barry > > > > -- > > Barry Byrne, IT Manager, > > WBT Systems, Block 2, Harcourt Centre > > Harcourt Street, Dublin 2, Ireland > > > > > -Original Message- > > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@;FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of DaleCo > Help > > > Desk > > > > > Good list, but where's MySQL? > > > > > > My current point of failure is that apache > > > can't load mod_php4 because it hasn't > > > been built with MySQL symbols/support > > > > > > Using the supplied docs got me this far, > > > but I've been stumped with this one > > > > > > KDK > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Re: installation question
I don't really think it makes much of a difference. Support for the card will depend much more on the version of X you have installed and whether that version supports the card (assuming you will be running X). If it is just for the system console I don't believe it will matter at all, unless downtime is a consideration. If it is I would combine the card install with the 4.7 upgrade reboot downtime. - Mike > I've got a 'new' old video card that i want to put in my bsd box.

Yes I would recommend this, but I would also recommend not having a CD drive on the same bus as a heavily used disk (unless the CD is rarely used). I would also recommend putting /usr/src and /usr/obj on different disks to speed up makeworld (if that is important to you). - Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
