 First, I hope that you have a good reason for doing this, because it
 is going to be a PITA, and prone to all sorts of problems. [...]

Unfortunately I do. The 32 bit stuff is *would be really nice, but not
necessary*, but the ability to use extra memory *and* dynamically load
kernel modules is a bit more important to me.

 If you are just talking about unshadowed ports, you could try adding
 something like the following to /etc/make.conf:

 .ifdef(32BIT)
 PREFIX=/usr/local/32
 LOCALBASE=/usr/local/32
 LDCONFIG=/sbin/ldconfig -32
 CFLAGS+=-m32
 .endif

 and then wrapping your portupgrade, portmaster, or make commands with:

 env 32BIT=yes [insert rest of command here]

 If there is shadowing, you have to consider how to manage the
 environment PATH so that you can actually run the 32-bit binary
 executables without typing in fully-qualified pathnames every time,
 and maybe also using LD_RUN_PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH so that the right
 libraries are used --- you can see how problems crop up at every turn?

I was thinking of leaving the standard paths alone, and setting up one
or more [ba|c|]sh32 alias/scripts which would start up the appropriate
shell, with 32-bit directories at the front of the path. I know I'll
end up having both 32- and 64-bit of Python on my system (many of the
main apps I use require python - but I also want to be able to use
py-psyco), as well as a few copies of the various GUI toolkits in
32-bit.

Thanks for the info,

Re: itunes on FreeBSD

2009-09-01 Thread Michael David Crawford


I am working on a GPL audio application called Ogg Frog:

   http://www.oggfrog.com/free-music-software/

It isn't ready for release yet, but when it is released for sure I will 
support FreeBSD.  I will set up a port for it that hopefully can be 
included with the official ports.


The initial release will be little more than a player, but later 
releases will support CD ripping, encoding, CD burning and integration 
with portable players.


While Ogg Frog itself will be GPL, the audio core will be MIT licensed 
and contributed to the ZooLib C++ cross-platform application framework, 
to eventually become a media framework for ZooLib, which previously 
hasn't had any media support.  Video will come eventually, but not for 
quite a while.

Re: 32 bit ports on an AMD64 system

 Also note that it is possible to have an i386 port-building jail on an
 amd64 system.


So, make/build/run a normal jail using the 64 bit os world, add -m32
to the make.conf CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, build stuff in the jail, and
copy it to main (non-jailed) system, and run ldconfig on the library

copy them over.

ifconfig -alias - removed wrong ip ?

2009-09-01 Thread claudiu vasadi

Hello guys,


I have a 7.2-stable Freebsd running on a 2.66 Ghz 478 socket mobo with 1 GB
DDR1 ram.

I added another ip on my rl0 interface, brought it up, everything was fine
(until i screwed it up :( ). I wanted then to remove the alias IP but i
wrote a wrong command (ifconfig rl0 -alias) and since then I have no access
to the box. I then turned to my vmware FreeBSD to reproduce the situation
and I was stuned to find out that that command I wrote, removes the normal
IP and not the alias one. OK, normaly (I think) i should be able to connect
to the alias IP. well, It's not the case


2 things here:

1.) Is it normal for the ifconfig rl0 -alias to remove the normal IP and
not the alias one ? (I think that by this syntax it could be right but the
parameter -alias is specified and the OS should know to remove the alias
IP and not the normal IP)
2) I dnt really understand why am I not able to connect to the second
(alias) ip? It seems that somehow it's dependant to the normal one


I must say I was not really reading the handbook for the 2nd point here
will do it now though



PS: box is 3 countryes away from me so manual intervention is out of the
question (although I have some sort of online-suport (If my 73 years old
grandmother can be called that :)) ) )

Fwd: 32 bit ports on an AMD64 system

Well, this would certainly help with building the ports safely.  But I
think we -- at least I was -- were thinking that you would actually
leave them in the jail, and run them from the jailed environment, so
there would be fewer run-time problems, and no work to transfer them
over.  Remember that you've got to ensure that there is no problem
with run-time linking of shared libraries, some of which (in your
current scheme) will have both 32-bit and 64-bit versions with the
same soname.  You can probably work around this problem as well, but
it seems easier to leave them in the jail.

With only console stuff, that'd probably be fine, a jail wouldn't be
much more tedious than the environment shuffling I'd need to run the
32 bit stuff, however I'll want to do some X11 stuff..
I know you can access X between different users on a machine, but can
a jail'ed shell open a window on an X server running from the main
machine? I'm not even sure what terms I would use for searching on how
to get that working.

Yes


Yes, there is no difference between normal and alias IP. alias is the
keyword used by the ifconfig utility to add an other IP address to an
interface. All IP addresses bound to an interface are equivalent, I mean
there is any hierarchy of importance of the addresses.

ifconfig int0 -alias just happens to remove the first IP address.
You really should use ifconfig int0 delete 192.168.0.1

 Such general questions imply homework assignment.

Indeed, I found General features (at least three)? Firewall, GUI,
Networking and

him the bother of handing it in.


 Somebody already replied with a link to the Handbook: It mainly covers 
 installing and configuring FreeBSD.

If that were the only response, he probably would have just printed
the handbook out and handed it in - given the amount of effort he took
to hide the fact that it was a home work question.

That said, he *might* actually learn something about FreeBSD, which is
probably more than can be said for the rest of his class.

I didn't specify just loading modules, but extra memory as well (the
beyond 4GB addressable space). Using the options in i386 that allow
you to access memory beyond 4GB, also eliminates the ability to

Re: 32 bit ports on an AMD64 system

You've given some of your reasons for using amd64 -- but are your
reasons for using 32-bit binaries on amd64 strong enough to make all
of this worthwhile?  Why not just use 64-bit binaries for all but the
32-bit-only ports?  Sure, some 32-bit applications will actually run
faster (the opposite is also often true) or use fewer resources, but
is it worth the hassle?

As for your earlier question, I haven't used multiple instances of X
myself, either in or out of jails, but I have seen reports of others
doing so, so I think it is possible, except perhaps in a few cases
where hardware balks because the graphics driver isn't good enough.  I
guess you'll have to make some experiments.  If you don't make
provisions for running a 32-bit X, then is there much point to having,
for example, 32-bit window managers, windowing toolkits, or GUIs?  If
you use a different LOCALBASE for 32-bit ports, you are going to have
to use 32-bit versions of most trunk and branch ports.

I still think a jail is your best bet -- after all, a thin jail,
which reuses those portions of your system that don't need to be
different inside the jail,  is just a more thorough version of what
you had hoped to accomplish with your 32-bit shell scripts. If you
don't use a jail ... well, I have not tried to install a large number
of 32-bit and 64-bit ports in parallel, so I am not sure if the
default setup for our loader will make the appropriate distinctions
between 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the same libraries depending
upon the executables or libraries that need them, but I think that
there is a good chance that it will not, and that you will have to do
some extra work to make sure that it does. In the case that it does
not, your only alternative is to either patch a large number of ports
(very time-consuming and error-prone), or to add loader environment
variables to your 32-bit shell scripts to make the loader look in the
32-bit library directories first, or to write a custom loader script
to only load the appropriate libraries depending upon whether the
executable or library that needs them  is 32-bit or 64-bit.  It would
be nice to have this flexibility, but given the current state of the
base system and infrastructure, it just seems like more trouble than
it is worth.

IMHO, unless you have a NEED to do this with the 8-BETA's I would not
attempt. While I had this working in 8.0-BETA1 upon reboot I would loose
data from entire mountpoints on the root pool. First it was /usr/ports, not
a big deal. Then it was /var/db/pkg.. the system had no idea what was
installed and what wasn't. This was a test machine, so no harm, no foul. I

Ok, so maybe I was a bit too pessimistic here, and the framework that
is already in place to handle the 32-bit-only ports will suffice to
deal with the case of parallel installs of 32-bit and 64-bit ports
libraries as well, provided that ldconfig is invoked with the proper
options when registering the libraries, so that the right hints are
available, and the ports are built properly.  If you are content to
use 32-bit binaries on top of a 64-bit base system, try it out on a
test case first -- some of the diagnostic environment variables listed
in rtld(1) may help, along with ldd(1).  It still seems like more

 ip followed by a /32 and a comma.  I want to combine all those lines into a 
 single line by removing all the newline characters at the end of each line.

 What's the best/most efficient way of doing that in a shell?

Probably this:

  $ echo `cat ip-file`
  $ ipline=`cat ip-file`
  $ echo $ipline | wc -l

netbooks and sdhci

2009-09-01 Thread David Horwitt

I recently purchased an Asus Aspire One D250-1151, and am,overall, 
pleased with it (running 7,2-RELEASE).
The alc ethernet is not supported in 7.2 (the ath0 wireless is), and I 
don't care about the video camera.


The '5-in-1' media reader is, unfortunately for me, a USB device. (After 
some detective work, I determined that
it uses a Reaktek RTS5101 or RTS5111). For my purposes (low level SDHC 
card access), I prefer hardware that is

supported by the sdhci/mmc subsystem.

So my question is: does anybody know _for sure_ of a hard-disk netbook 
with a media reader that uses the sdhci interface
and is supported by FBSD 7.2 (supported = wireless,X,USB). $USD300 (like 
the AA1-D250) is the desired price point, but
up to about $USD400 is OK (as is FBSD 8.0, if the hardware is right). If 
you have any pointers, please
include the sub-model information, because if it's anything like the 
Asus, the hardware varies all over the place, and

'Aspire One' means less than 'D250' or 'AO150'.

Thank you,
David

memory usage displsy


Hello,

What is a good way to find out how memory is used? Have a 6.4 box where 
memory is used by something but I fail to see what is using it - tried 
different switches to ps(1), tried the stat tools but a big chunk of 
memory does not show at all.


A proper tool for analyzing memory usage live, this is a production box?

I've always been able to get what I need from top.  You can do -o res to

ps will sort by memory usage when given the -m flag.  Also check ipcs -a to
see if there are any sysv shared memory segments hanging arnound.  If you
don't see anything using the memory, where are you seeing that something

Other (easier to remember) solutions could include:

I'm not that familiar with FreeBSD yet, but the kernel uses memory which 
might not be charged against any process.


For example, to map some virtual memory requires memory to store the 
mappings in.


Open files have kernel structures, as do filesystems.

If top or ps were only to show userspace memory allocations, then you're 
right, a lot of memory would be unaccounted for.

How are you accessing the web server... by name or IP?

Mounting an NFS volume served by Mac OS X

2009-09-01 Thread patrick

I'm wondering if anyone has had any success in mounting an NFS export
from a Mac OS X machine on FreeBSD 7.2? When I try, I get:

RPCPROG_MNT: RPC: Authentication error; why = Client credential too weak

The man page for exports on Mac OS X has:

 -sec=mechanism1:mechanism2... This option specifies one or more
security mechanisms
 required for access to the exported directory.  The security
mechanisms currently
 supported are krb5p, krb5i, krb5, and sys.  Multiple security
mechanisms can be spec-
 ified as a colon separated list, and should be in the order of
most preferred to
 least preferred.  In the absence of this option, the security
mechanism defaults to
 sys.


My export does not specify this, so sys is what is being used. Not
exactly sure what that means... I don't see any options in
mount_nfs(8) on the FreeBSD side that has anything to do with
authentication or security mechanisms...

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Daily security report oddity...

2009-09-01 Thread Kurt Buff

I got a daily security run email from one of my machines on Monday
morning, with the following entry:

 zmx1.zetron.com login failures:
 Aug 30 06:57:17 zmx1 su: BAD SU mlee to root on /dev/ttyp2
 Aug 30 09:42:17 zmx1 su: BAD SU mlee to root on /dev/ttyp0

What's puzzling is that this account has been completely inactive for
well over a year - this fellow is long gone, and I simply didn't clean
it up - that's my bad, but that's not the puzzling part.

I traced it down, and found out that he had not logged in on Sunday.
The auth.log is, as you can see from the listing below, quite old. The
entries referenced above are from two years ago.

zmx1# ll /var/log/a*
-rw---  1 root  wheel  71845 Sep  1 15:42 /var/log/auth.log
-rw---  1 root  wheel   6087 Aug 29  2007 /var/log/auth.log.0.bz2
-rw---  1 root  wheel   5774 Aug 12  2007 /var/log/auth.log.1.bz2
-rw---  1 root  wheel   5795 Jul 24  2007 /var/log/auth.log.2.bz2
-rw---  1 root  wheel   6813 Jul  6  2007 /var/log/auth.log.3.bz2


So, a couple of questions:

Why would the daily security run pick up something from *two years
ago* and only report it again today? The machine hasn't been rebooted
in a very long time, if that makes a difference.

Is there any way to prevent something like this happening again - or
perhaps can I force the entry of the year into the date field for the
auth.log entries?

which version of NFS are you using on the server side, which version

also, it may be helpful if you post your /etc/exports file from your

and your mount command that is failing.

 The alc ethernet is not supported in 7.2 (the ath0 wireless
 is), and I 
 don't care about the video camera.

 The '5-in-1' media reader is, unfortunately for me, a USB
 device. (After 
 some detective work, I determined that
 it uses a Reaktek RTS5101 or RTS5111). For my purposes (low
 level SDHC 
 card access), I prefer hardware that is
 supported by the sdhci/mmc subsystem.

My initial assumption was that you are familiar with the specific type of 
device you are asking about. Then, I remembered I was tempted by the SD 
form-factor as well.

I think you are asking for trouble because SD cards support Content Protection 
for Recordable Media (CPRM). One of the features is 'key revocation' 
technology built into each card.

http://www.sdcard.org/developers/tech/

I also read that speed is hampered by the interface design because they wanted 
something they could patent, rather than just re-implementing SPI (Serial 
Peripheral Interface).

The SD card Association has a what would have been a promising floppy 
replacement without those two deliberate design flaws.

If you are aware of that and sill want a SDHC reader, I don't have any reason 
to stop you :)

Regards,

James Phillips

 So my question is: does anybody know _for sure_ of a
 hard-disk netbook 
 with a media reader that uses the sdhci interface
 and is supported by FBSD 7.2 (supported = wireless,X,USB).

SNIP!

 Do you have a proper DNS name set up for the IP that the web server is

 How are you accessing the web server... by name or IP?
 
 I'll assume that you are using Apache. What does the ServerName
 directive say?

 The webserver works just fine when the firewall is not enabeled.
 But when i enabele any firewall the webserver seems to be overloaded
 or something and loads the pages verry slow.
 The problem is that natd is not working without firewall activated.
  
 i have apache (directadmin cpanel)

It's been years since I've needed to use NAT, so unfortunately, I can't
help here.

I'm sure someone else will speak up. If nothing comes up in the next
while, perhaps asking on -ipfw will help (but do not cross-post).

Re: Upgrading packages

 Greetings,
 
 Probably a long time discussed question:
 Updating a system is (or can be) done with freebsd-update.
 What is the suggested way of upgrading packages (not ports)?

There's at least portupgrade with the -P option that forces the
use of packages. You can as well use pkg_add to perform an
upgrade-like action, but you'll have to take care for more
things manually.

Re: I want install qutim

2009-09-01 Thread Polytropon

On Tue, 01 Sep 2009 23:57:48 +0400, Алексей Михайлович merfi...@bk.ru wrote:
I want install qutim

As it seems to me, qutIM isn't ported to FreeBSD yet.

I tried install Qt 4.5.2 and recive errror installation Qt 4.5.2 on FreeBSD
[...]
my action :
tar -xvf qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.2
cd qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.2
./configure

You don't need to do this on FreeBSD. Applications and libraries
that are ported to FreeBSD are available via the Ports Collection:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/ru/books/handbook/ports.html

So you first install Qt from ports or packages, then try do get
the source of qutIM working. This would work like this:

1. Download the qutIM sources.
2. Extract them.
3. Run
% ./configure (e. g. with needed parameters)
% make
% sudo make install

But keep in mind that it's possible that the configure script
doesn't honor the FreeBSD platform, so you won't be able to
compile and install it.

I type
# gmake

FreeBSD uses a different make program. As it seems, you try to
compile a Linux program on FreeBSD...?

I want install qutim , but he request: Found qt4-designer-4.4.1,
but you need to upgrade to qt4-designer=4.5.2.

It's a dependency, as well as the Qt library, that you have to
install prior to any compile attempt. A command like

# pkg_add -r qt4-designer

should do this, and even install all other needed dependencies,
such as Qt itself.

Help me please!

Check out FreeBSD's precompiled packages and the ports collection.
Make sure the qutIM sources are compatible with FreeBSD's building
tools.

Finally, ask the developers of qutIM for a FreeBSD version.

ps will sort by memory usage when given the -m flag.  Also check ipcs -a to

don't see anything using the memory, where are you seeing that something
is using it?


What I see is a slapd process using about 150M, then around a hundred 
imap processes 5-10M each. If the server is restarted, 70-80% will be 
free, now, after three months we're at 11% free loosing about 20% per month.


The exact sum VSZ right now as shown by ps is 1073632k but top says

Mem: 3111M Active, 311M Inact, 230M Wired, 144M Cache, 112M Buf, 27M Free

Clearly something is grabbing memory and not releasing it.

Stopping and starting various programs makes very little difference.
No SYSV mem at all.

You're probably thinking of Useful One-Line Scripts for Sed:

A good follow-up:

http://www.osnews.com/story/21004/Awk_and_Sed_One-Liners_Explained


I have a file with multiple lines, each of which contains a single ip
followed by a /32 and a comma.  I want to combine all those lines into
a single line by removing all the newline characters at the end of
each line.

What's the best/most efficient way of doing that in a shell?


A sed solution would be

  sed -e :a -e '$!N; s/\n/ /; ta' my_file

Other (easier to remember) solutions could include:

  tr -d '\n'  my_file
  tr '\n' ' '  my_file

  echo $(cat my_file)  # not so useless use of cat!

  paste -s my_file

  while read line; do
joined=$joined $(echo $line)
  done  my_file
  echo $joined

Lots of options, of course.  Even more with Perl.


Yeah, how 'bout Perl:

% perl -ne 's/\n/ /g; print;'  tests/ips.txt


perl -pe 'chomp' myfile

is somewhat easier.  Works with Ruby, too.
