Does anyone know how I can maybe disable the onboard SCSI controller since it appears to hang while detecting disks? Hi Garrett, I've been having a lot of "PC fails to POST" problems recently, so I feel your pain. Basically, my guess is that after your BIOS does its self check, it tries to load all of the option BIOSes into memory. This will include a BIOS from your SCSI adapter, as well as network-bootable NICs, etc. Basically, the BIOS has to do this so that you can boot off whatever option card that you have in the system. Since your SCSI adapter is built-in to the motherboard, it should be pretty compatible with the BIOS -- unless you changed that recently. In order to troubleshoot this, however, I would start by unplugging everything possible from your server. Just keep the ram, MB, CPU, and graphics card. See if you can get the machine to POST in this state (it really should, barring some sort of bad hardware or bad CMOS state). If it posts, start adding things back (disks, PCI cards, etc.), until you find the source of the problem. Usually, onboard devices can only be disabled from the BIOS, which you can't get to. But, I would check for a jumper on the motherboard, to see if there is a way to disable things that way. If you get really desperate, you could try resetting your BIOS configuration (CMOS). Good luck, and I hope this helps... -Andy. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Queueing with pf
Hi: I have a network: 54Mbps 100Mbps 320Kbps-> WLAN -- FBSD w PF --- DSL - Internet <-2Mbps Clearly, any congestion will occur on the DSL-Internet line. I want to enable queueing on the FBSD gateway using PF such that the DSL-Internet connection does not get saturated with questionable traffic such as p2p and to allow free riders limited access without getting sucking up all the bandwidth, something like this: WLAN -> Internet 320Kbps critical 256Kbps pri 1 borrow noncrit 48Kbps pri 2 borrow freeriders 16Kbps pri 3 Internet -> WLAN 2Mbps critical 1.5Mbps pri 1 borrow noncrit 256Kbps pri 2 borrow freeriders 128Kbps pri 3 That is, freeriders should be able to do the most basic task, but since they don't share the costs they should always be lowest priority. Also, I want to make sure that bandwidth intensive protocols such as voip gets through fast. Now, reading the PF manual, queueing only makes sense on traffic going out. Once packets are received there's no point in holding them back. This means that packets from the Internet to some wlan host have consumed their part of the 2Mbps available so there is no point in holding them back. In other words, it seems I need to queue the packets from the wlan to the Internet such as to get the desired result on both upstream and downstream. Any ideas on how to do that? I think I need a better picture of how much goes in each direction for the different protocols, ie. p2p down ~= up, while http down ~= 4*up? Do any one have some thumb rules for this? Secondly: Is it possible to differentiate scp/sftp and ssh such that the later goes in the critical queue while the former goes in the noncritical?

You are making assumptions which causes it to now work. As Marcus already explained, the CPU is not allowed to trap but kept waiting for the data. This of course had a terrible performance impact (if you were running many background jobs) but considering that the Apollo Domain stations were mostly used for CAD with huge data requirements it was not a bad thing though. At that time RAM was very expensive and top notch performance was not a very big issue at all times. And the MMU chip was a piece of crap and expensive so most companies built their own MMU, like we did.

Process for cloning freebsd
Hello all, I intend to clone a master freebsd box (6.1-stable) so that I can roll boxes as fast as possible. These won't be identical machines btw. This comes up from time to time, but I wanted to specifically check security concerns and other things. What sensitive information may be copied that must be removed/regenerated? For example, ssh keys. How would these be regenerated (like the screenful of junk with a new install)? Are there any other similar security issues? How about any other unexpected problems? I'm thinking I only need to change the hostname I was planning to Ghost the harddrives.

Re: FreeBSD users of Thailand
Dear Mr Nicole Thanks for the response. It is very nice that someone from the local academic institution is interested in this particular problem. We willl need all the helps we can get. I am not sure if you see the underlying problems the new users in Thailand encountered. >From the thai webboard ( such as in www.thaibsd.com. This site is run by one of the staff at teacher college in Pitsanulok,Thailand - though it's domain name ends with dot com , this is not a commercial site. it was for the sake of convenience to get the site up quickly. Another site is http://www.thai-aec.org/forum/ ) , we noticed that the newbies faces a lot of problems during installation. Few commonly encountered problems are : 1 CD error ( burned from download iso ) 2 incomplete software ( again error from either during download or during burning CD) . I encountered this problem myself inspite of correct MD5. So common occuring such that I resorted to obtaining the CD by direct ordering from FreeBSD Mall. And yet , I got error from the purchased disk. Perhaps this might be due to my old hardware. 3 Another very common complaint from the webboard is the failure during porting. This is a very common indeed. And this, in my opiniion having been in the same situation before, is very discouraging for the new users indeed. And as you might know, compounding with the slow modem speed most user had in Thailand,this will certainly discourage the new users to persue the FreeBSD route. I do not think this is FreeBSD problem but rather the unfamiliarity of the FreeBSD and porting system on the new users part ( perhaps they do not have latest port ). 4 the root of all problem is our lack goof background in english. What we have in our plan is to have an autorun cd filled with OS & necessary application softwares. Everything is in the CD so that users do not have to download ( only one option to install the software for users to select ie, from CD). One last important thing is to have instruction to the user in Thai language ( we will definitely need someone to help on this ie. writing command ( in shell script or ???) to automate the whole process, since most of us have no experience or know how.) This approach should have the new users up and running quickly without bandwidth problem or missing dependency files. Thanks in advance for the help. We definitely need your help.

Kismet and wi0
I'm wondering if anyone else is having trouble with the combination between Kismet and the Orinoco Gold card. This setup worked flawlessly for me under FreeBSD 5.4 (I retested it last night) but I get no joy with FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE. Here's what I see: # ifconfig wi0 list ap Doesn't list any access points even when # wicontrol -i wi0 -l list both my and my neighbor's linksys.

A 2Mbps tcp download can be sustained by just a handfull of tiny packets per second upsteam.

I assume that CARP would be a standard part of the base system like it is with OpenBSD- there's no mention on the net (AFAIK) that you have compile it in.

Re: Trying to revive a server... AIC-7896 freezes pre-POST completion
IF you can find the documentation for the motherboard, see if there is a reset jumper. That jumper should reset the BIOS to factory defaults to allow it to get through the post and into setup. Some motherboards actually take you into setup with the jumper moved to reset bad configurations. Also, unplug any cards and drives, leave the system board with just ram and cpu and video (unless it is built in) until you get it configured. -Derek At 12:11 AM 6/14/2006, Garrett Cooper wrote: Hello again all, I know this isn't a FreeBSD question really, but I just started up a motherboard with onboard SCSI (Adaptec AIC-7896), and for some odd reason it freezes pre-POST before it attempts to boot and there isn't any way where I can get into the BIOS to change the settings it seems.

Multiple gateways
Greetings,
I'm having bad times trying to set up a kind of advance router with FreeBSD 6.1.
The system has 6 Network interfaces, 3 for adsl connections (one nic
for each adsl, same ISP) and other 3 for 3 sub networks class C
(192.168.2. 192.168.3. 192.168.4.)
The server is running Squid and is using only the first adsl
connection and thats ok.
I'm doing NAT with PF but the problem is when i try to nat each sub
network by each adsl connection.
nat on $adsl1 from $net1:network to any -> ($adsl1)
nat on $adsl2 from $net2:network to any -> ($adsl3)
nat on $adsl3 from $net3:network to any -> ($adsl3)
but that doesn't' work, right now I'm NATing all sub networks with
adsl1 only and the others 2 adsl are being waste without use.
these adsl use dhcp to get the IP and here is the info
lease {
interface "adsl1";
fixed-address 201.242.241.180;
option subnet-mask 255.255.248.0;

}

expire 3 2006/6/14 20:39:45;
}
lease {
interface "adsl3";
fixed-address 201.242.241.150;
option subnet-mask 255.255.248.0;
option routers 201.242.240.1;

rebind 3 2006/6/14 18:09:52;
expire 3 2006/6/14 18:34:07;
}
Note that the 3 adsl interfaces have the same gateway, but now, how i
can load balance or at least define the usage of each adsl connection
for my sub networks? I tried using route but the routing table always
use the interface of the first adsl.
Any ideas, suggestion?
thanks in advance.

Wireless card for kismet
Well, it's looking like my venerable Orinoco card (wi0) is getting a little long in the tooth for kismet. Per my earlier post I can't seem to get it working with FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE. Can anyone recommend a better wifi card? I prefer something that will: Work with Kismet, Take an external Antenna, and do 802.11b at a minimum g and a are optional. Recommendations for hardware that I can get at a CompUSA, Staples, Circuit City, or Best Buy, or Buy.com would be most useful.

ucom/uvisor questions.
Hi, I have a Handspring Treo 600 and a program called Wmodem which allows you to access the wireless modem on the phone and establish a ppp connection. I've used this since FreeBSD 4.x with serial cable. With 5 I was able to use this with the USB cable. On 6.0 I'm back to using just the serial cable. The error message that I get is: ucom0: open bulk in error (addr 128): BAD_ADDRESS In the long run it's not as important to solve that problem since my Treo 600 will probably fail in the next year or two and then I will be forced to upgrade. Is anyone using the Treo 650 or Treo 700 with FreeBSD and if so are you able to sync these devices via USB. As an alternative to usb does anyone have a USB IR dongle that they recommend? I have a sigmatel but it's not supported by FreeBSD, it's NetBSD only. Lastly I can see that I'm going to have to face the day when I cannot use my phone as a wireless internet access device. Does anyone have experience with the wireless data services that are offered in the US from Verizon and Sprint? These are the services where you get a pccard that connects and sends data to the cell provider's 3G network. If anyone's got one of these working on FreeBSD or even Linux I'd love to hear about it.

ripping "enhanced" audio CDs
This has finally caused me enough grief that I'm going to ask about it and see if there's something I'm doing wrong or some nice solution to this really annyoing problem. I'm on a 5-STABLE box, currently 5.5-PRERELEASE. I use cdparanoia and lame (via abcde) to rip my CDs to MP3. (This has happened to me with other rippers, like cdda2wav, IIRC, also.) Whenever I try to rip an "enhanced" CD that has one or more data tracks along with the audio tracks, it crashes the computer when it gets near the enhanced tracks. It has happened on a wide variety of CDs, all enhanced, and over a long period of time. It is very repeatable.

RE: Multiple gateways
First problem is you can not run an dhcp server for your ISP IP
address.
You should be using dhclient on the NIC interface name facing the
public ISP.
ifconfig_rl0="DHCP"# adsl 0
ifconfig_rl1="DHCP"# adsl 1
ifconfig_rl2="DHCP"# adsl 2
This will cover both dynamic and static IP address assigned by your
ISP to you.
The dhcp server on your gateway box should only contain lease info
for the 3 separate legs of your local LAN (192.168.2. 192.168.3.
192.168.4.).
The simplest way to utilize your 3 adsl connections to your ISP is
to allocate one adsl line per local LAN leg.
nat on $adsl0 from $net1:network to any -> ($adsl0)
nat on $adsl1 from $net2:network to any -> ($adsl1)
nat on $adsl2 from $net3:network to any -> ($adsl2)

Subject: Multiple gateways
Greetings,
I'm having bad times trying to set up a kind of advance router with
FreeBSD 6.1.
The system has 6 Network interfaces, 3 for adsl connections (one nic
for each adsl, same ISP) and other 3 for 3 sub networks class C
(192.168.2. 192.168.3. 192.168.4.)
The server is running Squid and is using only the first adsl
connection and thats ok.
I'm doing NAT with PF but the problem is when i try to nat each sub
network by each adsl connection.
nat on $adsl1 from $net1:network to any -> ($adsl1)
nat on $adsl2 from $net2:network to any -> ($adsl3)
nat on $adsl3 from $net3:network to any -> ($adsl3)
but that doesn't' work, right now I'm NATing all sub networks with
adsl1 only and the others 2 adsl are being waste without use.
these adsl use dhcp to get the IP and here is the info
lease {
interface "adsl1";
fixed-address 201.242.241.180;
option subnet-mask 255.255.248.0;
option routers 201.242.240.1;

option dhcp-lease-time 11637;
option dhcp-message-type 5;
option dhcp-server-identifier 200.109.126.37;
renew 3 2006/6/14 16:56:54;
rebind 3 2006/6/14 18:09:37;
expire 3 2006/6/14 18:33:53;
}
lease {
interface "adsl2";
fixed-address 201.242.241.149;
option subnet-mask 255.255.248.0;
option routers 201.242.240.1;
option domain-name-servers 200.44.32.13,200.44.32.12;
option domain-name "cantv.net";
option broadcast-address 201.242.247.255;
option dhcp-lease-time 19174;
option dhcp-message-type 5;
option dhcp-server-identifier 200.109.126.37;
renew 3 2006/6/14 17:59:58;
rebind 3 2006/6/14 19:59:47;
expire 3 2006/6/14 20:39:45;
}
lease {
interface "adsl3";
fixed-address 201.242.241.150;
option subnet-mask 255.255.248.0;
option routers 201.242.240.1;

rebind 3 2006/6/14 18:09:52;
expire 3 2006/6/14 18:34:07;
}
Note that the 3 adsl interfaces have the same gateway, but now, how
i
can load balance or at least define the usage of each adsl
connection
for my sub networks? I tried using route but the routing table
always
use the interface of the first adsl.
Any ideas, suggestion?
thanks in advance.

When I started I would be have to run fsck on my memory stick about twice a day. Now it's more like once a month. In short it works. I've got to admit that I agree with the fact that this is a more than rather hackish solution to the problem. The real issue here is that for Unix, filesystems come in two types: Those on hard disks which are perpetually available once they've been mounted once, and those which come from the network which can come and go as they please. The automounter works as a solution to this problem by making a local filesystem on hotplugable hardware look like it's coming from a network. It took me the better part of a day to figure out how to make the automounter work properly in this situation. In my case I was using a UFS formatted memory stick which complicated things. The automounter was coded with the assumption that UFS filesystems only exist on drives that are bolted into the computer. The automounter will gladly mount a UFS volume but because it's a UFS volume it never feels the need to dismount the volume and leave it in a clean state. Another problem is that most tools today makes a similar the assumption about mounted volumes that they didn't graft into the filesystem. So, for example opening up the Nautilus file browser on /amd/ufs0 on my system creates an entry in some magic file somewhere that tells Nautilus to periodically visit that directory. As far as amd is concerned these visits are valid requests to mount the filesystem. The end result is that the filesystem again remains permanently mounted. With MS-DOS FAT filesystems the problem is who mounted the filesystem. Amd mounts my MP3 player read-write on /amd/mp3 perms 777 root:wheel. I use rsync to copy podcasts from a holding directory on my desktop to it. And rsync complains all the time that it can copy the files but it cannot change the date/time. This is because chris:chris cannot change an entry in a directory owned by root:wheel, as it should be. It doesn't sound like I'm trying to sell this but in the long run I actually believe that amd is the best of a bunch of mediocre solutions. I wish however that: Amd didn't make the assumption that a UFS volume was going to be there forever; Gnome could be told that filesystems under /amd or some other programmable mount point will come and go with the wind so don't cache the names; That more applications would understand that there are people using the automounter and that a mount request can be accomplished by a simple: $ ls -l /amd/foo and a umount request can be accomplished by a doing: $ amq -u /amd/foo Look for a followup with configs.g -- Chris -- Chris Hilton chris-at-vindaloo-dot-com "All I was doing was trying to get home from work!" -- Rosa Parks ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Making a L440GX+ work (was "Trying to revive a server... AIC-7896 freezes pre-POST completion")
Derek Ragona wrote: IF you can find the documentation for the motherboard, see if there is a reset jumper.

Does anyone know how I can maybe disable the onboard SCSI controller since it appears to hang while detecting disks? Thanks a million! -Garrett Thanks all for the help. It turns out after a bit of researching and seeing some numbers on boot, I was able to find the documentation for the motherboard. It's an L440GX+ motherboard which does appear to still work properly, but here's the clincher. I read that the processors I have installed are compatible (2xP3 600E CPUs), _but_ only if the BIOS is updated past a particular version and I don't know if that is true or not. Plus I don't know what is causing the thing to halt because it appears to work on occasion--got the system to boot once but halted it since I couldn't get into the BIOS and change the settings. I cleared the CMOS--both by setting the jumper and removing the battery, and all it appears to have done superficially is make the original splash screen come up during boot. So, my question is has anyone experienced anything like this and if so how did you solve this problem, or does anyone know how to fix this situation apart from (maybe) installing Windows and updating the BIOS with a different processor? Also, I have a horde of PC133 SD RAM and only one stick of PC100 RAM, which doesn't appear to work in the motherboard, and the motherboard is rated to _only_ support PC100 SD RAM. Is it all right for me to use RAM which is rated 33MHz faster than recommended? I think it's possible with some motherboards but I'm not sure about this one.

adding an "old' disk as a new mount point?
I'm sure this is a very RTFM question, but I'm getting a little lost in the minutae about just exactly what I'm looking for. I've got an "old" freebsd 4.4 system (single hard disk) and a new server with 6.0 installed. The new system is working just fine and I would like to install the disk from the old server as a data disk in the new machine for a little while until I can kick it loose and use it for new data. What am I looking for becuase each time I try to search the internet for the question, i get results about adding brand new disks, adding swap space or converting filesystems... I'm thinking I can simply plug in the older drive, find out what partition it's been named and then count it like I would any other mount point, provided I create the infrustructure to do that (creat mount point, fstab, etc.) Is it that simple, or should I be afaid, very afraid...

Re: adding an "old' disk as a new mount point?
You may want to repartition the disk and do a newfs to update the filesystem, and be sure the whole disk is used. -Derek At 04:10 PM 6/14/2006, Jeff D.

Re: Making a L440GX+ work (was "Trying to revive a server... AIC-7896 freezes pre-POST completion")
The halt could be anything from bad RAM, or other IRQ issues. This begs the question as to why this board is not in use? You should be able to update the BIOS from a floppy or cd-rom boot disk. You can take your pick at bootdisk.org The general rule with ram is you can run faster ram than you need, just usually wastes money that faster RAM costs. But speed isn't the only issue with ram, some are ECC or non-ECC, plus the CAS timing can be different.

Re: shebang line parsing changed in FreeBSD6
> http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=16393 I see that this problem is so convoluted that the shebang line has different implementations on the different systems. What about the idea of adding a space after #! to indicate to parse it the way freebsd did. The space following #! will not affect old implementations and will signal the new implementation in FreeBSD6 to split up the arguments. Examples: Note the space after the #!. This next line would work the same in both FreeBSD5 and FreeBSD6: #! /bin/sh -x -e Currently in FreeBSD6 we need to use env -S to get old functionality. This will not work in FreeBSD5 because FreeBSD5's env is missing the -S option: #!/usr/bin/env -S /bin/sh -x -e Space after #! is better than the env -S solution we have now that doesn't work in FreeBSD5 or below. -alfred ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

smb_maperror: Unmapped error 1:158 under FreeBSD 4.11 w/smbfs & pure-ftpd
I run the latest 4.11-STABLE (yes I know that's not the latest STABLE in general) and use smbfs to mount a 300-gig network file share. I also use pure-ftpd and hope to allow ftp access to parts of that drive. Problem: When a user connects to pure-ftpd, it is possible to list files, navigate among folders, and even upload; but on trying to download any file from the smbfs share, the following error is logged via syslog and the download instantly terminates: kirk /kernel: smb_maperror: Unmapped error 1:158 The error returned to the client (at least when I use FreeBSD's ftp as a client) is (shown with context) 150-Accepted data connection 150 21286.3 kbytes to download 0% | | 0 --:-- ETA 450 Error during write to data connection This reminds me that, on older FreeBSD versions, attempting to FTP straight off an smbfs mount, though not causing kernel errors, did result in corrupt downloads. That applied to the FreeBSD-internal ftpd as well as to pure-ftpd, but not to wu-ftpd. (I don't want to use wu-ftpd though for security reasons.) I can transfer files to/from the smbfs share by other means, such as via cp, without problems. Anyone have any idea what's going on here? Google searches for error 1:158 turned up very little solid (unless I missed something).

Note that you may have to tweak the paths of this script (especially the
`MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX' part) and run it from `/usr/src' instead of my local
`/home/build/src' tree.

The phrase "Upgrade your vulnerable system" implies performing the full upgrade as per handbook, which means kernel and world. I would never recommend rebuilding world without kernel, even it appears to be without risk, for three extremely good reasons: o the handbook says not to, and explains why o so that you will never fall into the habit of just building world and get caught out one day when it bites you o so that the correct version of your system will be reflected in the output of 'uname -a' eg: 5.3-RELEASE-p32 and hence you will be able to track the patchlevel of your system That said, I wouldn't discourage you from patching sendmail immediately to correct the vulnerability as per procedure 2) if time is critical but I would certainly encourage following through with a system update as per 1) as soon as possible. cheers, joel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Verizon Wireless PC5740 on FreeBSD?
Has anyone been successful with using Verizon Wireless on FreeBSD. I have read where the PC5740 card has been successfully used on Linux claiming 160mbps with a ohci-hcd module. If that's true, I was thinking this should be possible on FreeBSD. I have a mix of Darwin and FreeBSD and it seems more likely that FreeBSD would be the better bet since the linux module might run as is. Hate to put the money out and find out differently. Has anyone tried this? Thanks, Chris ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Nowadays there are more and more protected discs around. Some of them even crash computers when loading. How silly is that? Programs like CloneCD can handle such things on Windows boxes. That is what I use after having long frustrated sessions with open-source tools.
