Re: Where is strnlen() ?
Thordur Ivar B. wrote: While porting software from a friend wich was developed under Linux, I stumbled upon an error: src/socket.c:236: warning: implicit declaration of function `strnlen' Now my programming experience is nothing to brag about but I wonder why strnlen is not a part of FreeBSD's libc. I think that the use of strlen() insted of strnlen() could resault in buffer-overflow risks and my fellows (most of them are more experienced in the art of programming say that bounds checking is always good.) I see one small, specialiezed use. That is in a structure were a string for max length doesn't get the terminator, this would prevent reading throught the rest of the data to find a null somewhere.

Re: Jul 30 changes to ppp break my Telstra ADSL PPPoE connection
Greg Lane wrote: G'day all, I have a problem with PPPoE over Telstra ADSL (Australia). A full description of the problem can be found in freebsd-questions (see [EMAIL PROTECTED] dated Nov 30) with the subject: ADSL PPPoE (Telstra Aust.) began to hang between 4.3- and 4.4-RELEASE The short of it is that at some point during my cvsup history certain types of traffic would hang, specifically most web traffic and certain types of ssh (e.g. ls -l of a long directory). This was reminiscent of the MTU/MRU problems at the beginning of the year. I backdated to 4.3-RELEASE which worked and I forgot about it until recently when I decided to change my gateway machine. I have now chased it up in earnest by going back through various dated cvsup's and making the world. On July 30th there were some changes to src/usr.sbin/ppp that break ppp and cause this problem. Strangely enough the changes were related to MRU's :- !! I can reliably make my DSL connection work on three different machines using four different network cards (ed, de, vr, rl) with source dated Jul 30 12:01am, and reliably break it with anything after Jul 31 12:01am. The changes made to ppp on that day were to: src/usr.sbin/ppp/command.c src/usr.sbin/ppp/lpc.c src/usr.sbin/ppp/nat_cmd.c src/usr.sbin/ppp/nat_cmd.h src/usr.sbin/ppp/ppp.8 The most likely problem is lpc.c because 1) it looks the most complicated(!!) and 2) it is supposed to: MFC: Handle peer REQ/NAKs of 1500 byte MRUs when we have no preference The other diffs were small and were to implement two issues: MFC: If the peer REJects our MRU REQ, stop REQing it -- *EVEN* if we're doing PPPoE and the default MRU is therefore too big. MFC: Actually add the ``nat proto'' command I'm afraid my lack of knowledge stops me going on from here. My ppp.conf is below and I start ppp with ppp -ddial -nat -quiet bigpond Can anyone see the problem and suggest further detective work I can perform or even better, a fix or workaround?

I thought the whole point of buildworld was to compile and install everything as a coordinated set? make buildworld does just that "builds everything". make installworld install everything. You have to do both.

IPv6
Is there a IPv6 Mailing list for FreeBSD/*BSD specifically? Has there been any additional article since the Feb 2000 FreeBSDzine article, which is out of date? Jim -- Unix is very user-friendly.

mod_auth_mysql-2.20
I am having trouble installing mod_auth_mysql-2.20 with the apache13-php3 port. I was able to install/configure/use it with the plan apache13 port. MySQL client and server are both install. PHP3 works fine. However it get a mod_auth_sql.c in found error from apache, and different errors. I have tried server different things, including trying to compile it as a DSO. Is there anyone that has done this, and remembers how, that would be willing to give me acouple of pointers? Jim -- The wise man built his network upon U*nx.

Finding percent idle
I am trying to find out the current % idle of the machine from within a program. I have looked at the valuse provided by sysctl and found loadavg but not system idle. I have also looked through the source for top and haven't been able to figure that out. All pointers would be appreciated.

Device driver KLD module
History: I had a device driver for a BDM (Background Debug Module for Motorola 683xx CPUs) that worked fine as a kernel device and a LKM. It was based upon the LPT driver, because it attached to the parallel port, and the JOY LKM, cause it was simple. Present: I have updated the driver, it does work as a kernel device. It does not work as a KLD. It does not print its startup nor create a device. It was updated to match the current JOY KLD. It also appears the JOY KLD may not be working. Questions: 1) Does the JOY KLD actually work? What is the simplest way to test it. I have a joystick, but not sure how to read info from it. 2) If not I will fix it, if possible, while fixing my BDM. 3) Looking around it would seem that the VESA KLD might be the simplest KLD to look at. Is this true, or is there a better one? My source for the BDM driver is available, for anyone who wants to peek, is at: http://bdm.thehousleys.net/bdm.tgz . The full page with some more info is at: http://bdm.thehousleys.net . Thanks for all help. Jim -- microsoft: "where do you want to go today?" linux: "where do you want to go tomorrow?"
