fat32 slower than dogshit?
Well, i think it is, i'm actually not too sure exactly how fast dogshit is in the first place. But in doing a simple untar on a fat32 partition using both 4-stable a couple days after release and a recently updated 4-stable as of yesterday (5/10) it goes about 20-30 times slower than an untar on a UFS partition. Now i know fat32 is supposed to be slower than UFS, but this seems a little bit rediculous. Does this sound like a known problem? If someone wants more information I can probably dig down and get it if I know what you want...

Re: What gives?
The most common thing I find is leftovers, like a Makefile.inc or a work directory, do a make clean on them, I periodically do a make clean in /usr/ports. I know there is probably a more efficient way to do it, but I just let it go for a while. You could also do it before you install somethings, just do a make clean install, because it also cleans the dependencies. - Original Message - From: "Roelof Osinga" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Rasputin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, May 11, 2001 4:15 PM Subject: Re: What gives? > Rasputin wrote: > > > > >... > > > -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1955761 May 10 00:30 gnome > > > -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 636835 May 10 02:46 kde2 > > > > Freaky - those two both work for me. > > > > > Sounds like your ports tree is shafted, because the ports work for others. > > Interesting suggestion.

Interesting suggestion. Never mind the obvious 'how could it have been shafted?', but rather point out how one can verify the state of ones port collection. Please :). Each tarball has an unique MD5 hash. Each port release has the distinfo file with the MD5's it has been based upon. Hence each port can verify if the tarball fetched is the right one. Alternatively it can check if needed needed stuff like libs or execs are present. Yet how can a sysop check the correctness of the collection itself? As well as supporting utilities, of course. Just wipe /usr/ports and refetch the whole shebang? Coupled with a CVSup of the source, is it advisable to also wipe the /usr/src tree? Or are there diagnostic tools?

I wrote a perl script to parse the named stats log file and return the number of queries. These results are available via snmp by using the 'exec' feature of ucd-snmpd to call the script. I use a shell script and snmpget(1) on my monitoring machine to collect the results and update a rrdtool database every 5 minutes. It would be easy to parse the output of mailstats(1) and return the results via snmp.

Depends on what and how you want to monitor. For BIND, I wrote a little script that stuffs those annoying statistics dumps into an RRD. You could conceivably do the same thing with sendmail, although you would have to collect your own stats by analyzing the log files. The one place where we use SNMP to monitor sendmail is by using ucd-snmp's process monitoring feature. We then use Cricket to monitor the number of sendmails active. While this is statistically invalid (because cricket measures every five minutes exactly) it still gives us a useful look at what's going on. (I just looked at my long-term cricket graphs and learned something which was totally new to me: there seems to be a new outbreak of the Hybris worm on the seventh day of every month, although the population seems to have peaked last February.) -GAWollman -- Garrett A.

sendmail traffic analysis
Recently I setup FreeBSD 4.3 on a HP Netserver (SMP) at my workplace and am stoked to be using FreeBSD for a production server in a predominantly Microsoft oriented distributed computing environment. It's a wonderful opportunity to show how well FreeBSD performs :^). This is the first time I've run FreeBSD on a SMP platform, the box has two processors and I was wondering if top shows an aggregate cpu load or just the load on cpu #0. This box will be the primary SMTP relay for our domain and I I'm looking for a way to measure the sendmail traffic load. I currently use MRTG to monitor our Sun SPARC based systems and run ucd-snmp on them. I'm not sure how to monitor sendmail with SNMP, and would be interested in hearing from others what tools they use to monitor SMTP traffic on their FreeBSD systems. -- __ / )_/_ It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. /--/ __ /Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, / (_/ (_<__ Instead of theories to suit facts. -- Sherlock Holmes, "A Scandal in Bohemia" Arthur W.
