Re: MSN voice conversation + NATD problem.
I wanted to setup one machine that can make voice connections over natd. natd doesn't handle voice protocols. redirecting the ports won't work. When I try to make voice connection to other machine I just can not connect. correct. We tried netmeeting too. It uses same MSN ports. And, under netmeeting, other end see my ip number as 192.168.0.20. I do not know why. I'll tell you why. Because every voice protocol I've ever seen gets the local ip address and sticks it in the data stream. (I really wish someone would explain just one good reason for doing this--the ip header should be all that's needed.) Anyway, your local ip address is stuffed in the data stream and gets through unchanged. On the way back, the addess is an rfc1918 intranet address, so it isn't routable, and your connection fails. Now, if natd was smart enough to recognize the protocol you're using, then it could stuff your outside interface ip address in the data stream (as well as the ip header), and replace it with your local ip on the way back in. This is what it does for ftp. BTW, I don't get the rationale behind ftp doing this stupid programmer trick either, but natd has always supported ftp, so whut the hell. A long time ago, I wrote a patch to natd to work with netphone or some such cool product. It actually worked and could support any number of pc's behind the firewall. But those were the days of 28kbps dial-up modems and really lousy ISP's. So, performance was never good enough to justify it's continued use. Today might be a different story. Unfortunately, the code is backed up somewhere in a pile of a few hundred CD's. I just don't have the time to locate the code, or the time to retrofit it I did find it. BTW, I never could get NetMeeting to work with natd. The problem was that I couldn't understand the protocol. If I remember correctly, NetMeeting uses the H.323 standard. I seem to recall digging through the standards docs and thinking, gee could they make this any more complex? Bottom line is, you won't get natd working with NetMeeting unless you become an expert in the underlying protocol (not likely) or someone who is an expert helps you out. That's not me, sorry. Paul A.

Re: Why Use a Daemon as a Symbol since it alienates many?
Grow ups or not and as ridiculous as it may sound and probably is, these are both good points and they both could have effect on FreeBSD's popularity, the satan looking symbol and the hostility towards Berkeley. As for the symbol, well, I would expect it to look something more world wide acceptable, neutral, and cute, like Penguin is and not as a demon. We all know the difference between daemons and demons, however, there are plenty of people that don't and as far as popularity goes compared to Linux, well, popular doesn't necessarily mean a kitchen sink linux OS, IF HANDLED RIGHT of course, and I am sure that there isn't anyone here that wouldn't like FreeBSD being popular. After all, I think it deserves a lot more than Linux does and the way these third party linux companies such as RedHat and SuSE are handling it. I am moving this to -chat. It doesn't belong here.

I can report that Courier-IMAP (and its POP3 server) definately run as daemons, but I would be very surprised if imap-uw can't as well. Did you install these applications through ports? Do the ports offer the ability to configure these applications the way you want them? Yes I installed them through ports. I have looked at imap-uw's website and read about it in FreeBSD Unleashed, but I couldn't find anything.

I gather that it is _not_ as simple as just cat'ing some .mp3 file to one of the /dev/dsp* device files, correct? Nope. The DSP devices don't understand mp3, you need an mp3 decoder to do that but there are command-line (non-X) tools that play mp3s - check out audio/mpg123 (or something like that). Also, try doing 'cat /dev/sndstat' to make sure that pcm really does understand your card.

Panic: ffs_clusteralloc: map mismatch
Maybe a question for freebsd-hackers.. not sure..
FreeBSD 4.4, P166, 128Mb, 3 HD's: ad0, ad1, ad4, as ata0-master,
ata1-master and ata2-master. ata2-master is a Promise ata 100 controller
(tx2 I think).
For several months my server has been panicing, and I'm starting to think
it's a bad harddrive. I don't believe it's bad code (although I guess it
could be). I really need help in finding the drive responsible so that I
can replace it, but my debugging skills are limited to what I've learnt
from the OnLamp kernel debugging lesson :-)
I'd really appreciate it if someone could look over the crash dump output
below and let me know how I might be able to find out what write was
attempted when the server paniced. I have the last 4 crash dumps saved so
I can go back and look for matches in consistancy too. Also running a
debugging kernel but the code was last CVSUp'd about 8 months ago.
If it is a bad drive, I plan to replace it with 4.7-RELEASE.

Clarification of eject question
Ok, The program eject is in the ports tree, not in the base distribution. Thanks to Sue Blake for pointing this out to me. If installed it comes with a manual page, that if read scrupulously it implies that the /dev part of the device name is not required. The manual page unfortunately implies by it's authorship and history that it is part of the base system. So maybe that needs to be corrected. Really eject needs rewriting to take the mount point of the CD device(s) as an argument (or at least an alternative argument, so as not to break anything).

However that user still appears in the output from 'w'. How can I remove the user from 'w' output? I've just installed 'idled' so hopefully it won't happen in future ;) Thanks in advance, Jez To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Ok, I've just logged in multiple times on a ttyp until I logged in on the tty occupied by the ghost and the w entry was removed.

Summary of last thread: If your dns isnt setup properly then there will be a delay in connecting to the server. The reason for this is, the remote server is attempting to resolve the local machines ip address. If setup properly, it will resolve straight away. If dns is not setup properly, it tries and gives up (after about approximately 1:15 minutes I would suspect). You need to check the remote machine can resolve your local ip address. To test this on your remove machine type: nslookup 192.168.local.machine.ip.address Sorry, I should have mentioned these two machines are behind a firewall and use private ip addresses. The hosts files identify each other properly. Even if I attempt a connection using the ip address I observe the same problem. Do you still think this is a DNS issue? I'm not sure how it would be. Sounds like a DNS issue to me! :) You need to setup a local bind that will resolve and reverse resolve all your private #'s note that it doesn't need to be Bind, you can use any DNS server. djbdns has been doing me a very good service: http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html -- If you cc me or take the list(s) out completely I'll most likely ignore your message. see http://www.eyrie.org./~eagle/faqs/questions.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

By default the root account always used to be added to class {E} ---

You can use the GENERICSTABLE functionality to rewrite the sender
address: works pretty much like MASQUERADE except it matches
individual senders rather than domain names. Insert into
/etc/mail/`hostname`.mc:
FEATURE(genericstable, `hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable')dnl
GENERICS_DOMAIN(`your.hostname.com')dnl
and create a file /etc/mail/genericstable containing:
root [EMAIL PROTECTED]
then rebuild your sendmail config and the genericstable.db database
etc.:
cd /etc/mail
make install
make restart

For the second time when I tried to lpr filename, there were no responses from the printer at all. After each reboots, the printer acknowledges the commands for once only, and just sits there idle. I had *exactly* the same problem, but with an Epson 740U. So I tried printing under Windows and it would only print in black and only legibly at the highest quality .. I cleaned the heads etc, and the status monitor said there was plenty of ink. So, more out of a guess than anything else I replaced the ink cartridges -- and lo and behold it worked just fine on all O/S'es. What that implies I don't know, although obviously the colour cartridge was blocked beyond repair. I don't use the printer much, so... maybe the cheapo cartridges I use had got fed up. You only have to replace the catridges twice with real Epson ones and it is about the same cost as a new printer (here in Holland anyway !) Did it ever work under other releases ? The fact that it is recognised means it is in the file of signatures for USB devices, that does not always mean it will work. I am sending this, not saying this is your problem, but the symptoms are so similar I thought I would pass it on. Thanks for the reply. I've already tested with Windows, and the printer is just fine.

Copy the /etc/make.conf file to both machines. Copy the kernel config for your laptop into /usr/src/sys/i386/conf on the build machine. To build a kernel for the laptop, log into the build machine and just: cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNCONF=LAPTOP then NFS mount the /usr/src and /usr/obj directories on the laptop, and (while logged into the laptop) run: make installkernel KERNCONF=LAPTOP You'll want to do likewise with buildworld and installworld so the kernel and userland are in synch on both machines, obviously. As a convenience, on the build machine you can set KERNCONF to a list of kernel configs. All will be built, but the first one is assumed to be the build machine's own config. It's quite handy to add the correct KERNCONF setting to /etc/make.conf on each machine. eg. KERNCONF = BUILDBOX LAPTOP on the build box, and KERNCONF = LAPTOP on the laptop.

It seems to work fine so far, but it's a bit slow because of the initial 8192:1024 block and fragment sizes that I used. You might want to split the large disk in parts that you newfs with different block or fragment sizes to get an optimal setup of speed vs. space. Oh, and do you think it makes sense at all to integrate a 20 GB hard drive into a P133 which shall share these 20 GB to three other machines and is performing routing at the same time, or is this machine too slow for this task? A P133 works fine as my primary workstation here. Agreed, it doesn't do much in the area of routing or network load, but it can happily run fairly big compiles in the background as I surf the net, read email or chat with friends. Giorgos.

non-writeable directory - can't be removed

RE: Default Sendmail install with FreeBSD
Matthew,
I actually tried using the generics table from the start, which is what led
me to figure out that the root account wasn't getting masqueraded. After
figuring that out, I completely took out all entries of the genericstable to
see that all acounts but root would be masqueraded, so putting that back
into the genericstable won't do any good.
I did however just comment out the C{E}root in my .cf file and restarted
sendmail, and, alas, it finally is working like I want it to and
masquerading the root account.
Thanks to everyone for their patience in helping me solve my problem,
Ed

Does anyone know how to tell sendmail to also masquerade the root

account.
By default the root account always used to be added to class {E} ---
exposed users, ie. account names that should not be masqueraded. The
docs suggest that stopped after sendmail 8.10.x, but a quick glance
through /etc/mail/sendmail.cf still reveals:
C{E}root
and there's no EXPOSED_USER(`root') in my .mc file, so I guess it's
still happening.
You can use the GENERICSTABLE functionality to rewrite the sender
address: works pretty much like MASQUERADE except it matches
individual senders rather than domain names. Insert into
/etc/mail/`hostname`.mc:
FEATURE(genericstable, `hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable')dnl
GENERICS_DOMAIN(`your.hostname.com')dnl
and create a file /etc/mail/genericstable containing:
root [EMAIL PROTECTED]
then rebuild your sendmail config and the genericstable.db database
etc.:
cd /etc/mail
make install
make restart

HTTP access
Hi, Another newbie question, this time dealing with HTTP access from the world. I'm running apache on my FreeBSD computer, which is also my gateway. I can telnet FTP to it from my Mac on the local network and from an outside connection (the world). I can access it by http locally both through a local IP address and through the ISP-assigned IP (via DHCP). But I can't access it by http from the world. My neighbor's AOL account tells me it finds the server (my computer) but then times out. Any thoughts as to what's wrong? I'm using the OPEN firewall that comes with the GENERIC build. Thanks.

FreeBSD filesystem 1TB Limit
IIRC There was a 1TB limit on the size of any filesystem (or actually of any block device) in FreeBSD based the kernel internaly using a 512 byte block size and having a max of 2^31 blocks. (512*2^31 = 2^40 = 1TB) Do I remember correctly? Is this still the case? A client wants to build a system with over 1TB on a single filesystem and I need to see if FreeBSD can support it.

You can't go wrong with Blackbox (or fluxbox, which is very similar). It can look as detailed or as simple as you want. I use it on my low spec laptop and workstations. If you want a nice looking theme, I suggest 'AlmostX', but you might want to get rid of some of the gradients in it, as rendering them chew unnecessary CPU power. It's been quite usable on my p120 thinkpad. With a fairly rich configuration, how small is fluxbox's footprint? I just had a peek at fluxbox's source, and I see that gradient shading is done with X pixmaps. If they're cached (by color and/or size?), this is rather memory hungry, no? I run vtwm with a rather rich setup on FreeBSD 4.5-REL-p22, XF86 4.2.0, TrueColor visual, and top shows the following: PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZERES STATETIME WCPUCPU COMMAND 49880 hawkeyd2 0 3092K 2496K select 0:16 0.00% 0.00% vtwm It does cache pixmaps by size and color, but for the most part they're small - titlebar buttons.

How does that fair against fluxbox or blackbox? As X pixmaps are server-cached, how can one [easily] tell how much memory is used for them? As far as file managers go, I would suggest perhaps XFtree from XFce. I've not used every file manager, but I have used this in the past, its been good and has a small footprint.

I have almost the same setup working for me right now. FreeBSD 4.4 is my main box, and I have a Win2K box with an HP930C connected to it, and I can print from my FreeBSD box over to the HP. This took me a LONG time to get working, and once, after I let portupgrade lose on my machine for a couple days I broke the printing thing for months before I finally decided to try and fix it. I was unable to find any clear documentation on this. Even though I tried to document what I did to fix it, I didn't do a good job on that either. So be warned! I found I had to use smbprint and ASPFILTER. Installing ASPFILTER will install a host of programs. You need them all. Pay careful attention to what type of printer(s) you install in GHOSTSCRIPT. Be sure to select SAMBA printing in ASPFILTER. I had to select something close to the HP890C but it works fine. Let ASPFILTER adjust your /etc/printcap file. You'll need a .config file in your spool directory (mine is in /var/spool/lpd/lp). It contains the server=, service= and password= variables needed for network access to the printer from the FreeBSD box. naturally you need to set up sharing on your Win2K box that matches this information. I can't remember if I had to edit /usr/local/samba/smbprint or not. But make sure this file exists and jives with the info in your /etc/printcap file. Ditto for your spool directories. Make sure what's in your printcap directory really exists. I also found the logfile(s) handy. And don't forget to restart lpd when making changes at the command line with lpc restart all I'm doing pretty well with my setup.

What do you do/type prior to receiving the error message? Also, what do you mean sshd command--- the daemon is enabled at startup, usually. What about the ping?

Re: Printing to HP845c attached to Win2K - over samba?
On 4 Nov 2002, Stacey Roberts wrote: Input filter., I take it you're referring to smbprint. Forgive me, but I really know very little about printing as it is, and would appreciate guidance here. Okay, quick overview: lpd is the line printer daemon. It runs all the time, waiting for print jobs. The printers it can use are defined in /etc/printcap. lpr is used to submit print jobs. Sometimes you have to translate what is submitted as a print job into what the printer wants. For instance, Unix end-of-lines are plain linefeeds rather than the more common CR/LF. An input filter can be used to convert what you have to what you need. Chapter 11 in the Handbook goes into this a little bit, and does cover the stairstepping case. Input filters are the if= lines in /etc/printcap entries. As an example, here's a Perl input filter that will fix the stairstepping problem by translating linefeeds into CR/LF: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/perl -pe 's/\n/\r\n/s/g;' Create that as the file crlf in /usr/local/libexec, and use chmod +x to make it executable. Then put this in your /etc/printcap: lp:\ :lp=/dev/lpt0:\ :sh:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :if=/usr/local/libexec/crlf:\ :sd=/var/spool/output/lpd/lp: That's a printcap entry that says the printer device is /dev/lpt0, suppress headers, the log file is lpd-errs, the input filter is the file you just made, and the spool directory is in /var. You have to create that spool directory, and set the ownerships. Again, see the Handbook Printing chapter for that. (You may also need to have it add a form feed at the end of the job, which I think is :ff:, but can't recall exactly.) I've ready through smbprint, and it doesn't mention print-control chars that are included anywhere.., so are the carraige-return and line-feed control chars to be included by myself before copying smbprint to the location referenced here: `dirname $0`/smbclient? I haven't used printing through Samba, but I'd get the basic /etc/printcap setup completed before going on to printing through Samba. The other option has also been mentioned: apsfilter and other print filter packages generally detect what kind of thing you're printing and apply the appropriate filters. I haven't tried them; I'd rather control /etc/printcap and filtering directly myself. -Warren Block * Rapid City, South Dakota USA To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Transition guide for 5.0
Since FreeBSD 5.0 will be on the stable branch (right?) when it's released toward the end of this month, is there or will there be a transition guide for moving from 4-Stable to 5-Stable? Actually, is there even really anything to worry about? Will there be a simple upgrade path (cvsup/buildworld etc) or will it be an install from scratch and rebuild your ports? -- Derek Tattersall[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

It appears that date(1) attempts to make the adjustments in steps, one little adjustment every time a -v option is encountered. Now, we are in November, and the -v31m adjustment is wrong. But if you pass -v10m as the first option, the month adjustment happens first and then -v31d is meaningful for the ``adjusted month value''. : keramida@gray[21:01]/home/keramida$ date -j -v31d -v10m -v2002y : 31d: Cannot apply date adjustment : usage: date [-jnu] [-d dst] [-r seconds] [-t west] : [-v[+|-]val[ymwdHMS]] ... : [-f fmt date | [cc]yy]mm]dd]HH]MM[.ss]] [+format] : keramida@gray[21:01]/home/keramida$ date -j -v10m -v31d -v2002y : Thu Oct 31 21:02:01 EET 2002 It works with the following command: guf@loghost01% date -v30d -v10m -v2002y -v+1d Thu Oct 31 10:35:55 CET 2002 Because -v+1d comes after -v10m.

Phoenix does nothing
I just built phoenix from the ports, having cvsup'd ports immediately before. It compiles and installs, but when I run it nothing happens. It just exits after a few seconds, without putting up any windows or printing anything. Nothing on the console or in /var/log. It has created a .phoenix directory full of mozilla-y stuff. I'm running 4.7-RELEASE. Mozilla 1.1 works. Any suggestions? -- Richard To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
Re: Phoenix does nothing
Is this the first time you've installed it? If I remember right they said that going from .3 to .4 meant completely removing your .phoenix directory. The linux-phoenix has worked fine for me...

Re: Novice question about testing sound cards
Ronald F. Guilmette wrote: OK, I'm willing to give that a try, but what device should I can the .au file to? Do I cat to /dev/dsp0 ? Yes, give it a try. I tried it, and nothing happened. No sound came out. I cat'd the file to /dev/dsp0. Was that correct? Sorry Ronald, I don't know what else to check from there. My advice would be to try an mp3 or other media player. As I mentioned above, if you have MP3 files then try using a command-line mp3 decoder as well. They also use the /dev/dsp entries. OK. I'll try that too. Where can I pick up some short free MP3 files for testing? I'm sure if you Google around, you will find something. That's how I found the .au file. Sorry I can't be more help. Andrew.
