getting DSL working

2003-02-10 Thread c a r s t e n
okay, retrying with no mime attachments. blew a synapse.

i have installed FreeBSD 4.7, customised X a bit, installed xmms from 
a port to start getting used to the system, and now i am ready for a 
bigger challenge: an internet connection.

i have the handbook, and have read and executed the section on PPPoE 
(which is what i presume i need to do for getting DSL running). my 
motherboard (Gigabyte GA-7VRXP) has a built-in RealTek ethernet port 
which seems to install correctly during bootup (how can i test it?), 
and tells me that it is rl0. i am in germany and have a Telekom 300 
LAN DSL modem, and will be connecting to 1und1, in case anyone is 
familiar with this setup.

i have added the lines to the /etc/ppp/ppp.conf as in the manual (is 
it out of date for 4.7, it describes 4.5), with a couple of minor 
areas of uncertainty. the line:

  set device PPPoE:rl0

i presume this is what i do with this line. the other line i am not so 
sure about is the:

  set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0

it follows the manual, so i guess it is right. it just seems odd, 
since this has nothing to do with my system.
anyway, running ppp from the commandline and then typing 'dial 
myprovider' yields the logfile below. i replaced my userid with 
X, but it is my login name in the ppp.conf file.

if anyone could help me out, i would be very appreciative.

as background, i am doing this to a large extent as a learning 
experience, so while it would be great to be on the net with FreeBSD, 
it is at least as important to me to learn and understand what is 
going on. i simply have no networking experience, so i don't 
understand the output, and as usual the man pages are great for people 
who already know most of the stuff but just need to find an option or 
two, but less good for someone who is learning from scratch. i am not 
adverse to reading lots of material, as long as it is well written and 
informative. any links and/or references would thus be appreciated 
(the man pages will have to come later, once i have the fundamentals 
understood). a good book would be a Good Thing.

thanks in advance.

BTX halted error with Tyan Thunder L-ET & Adaptec 0Channel RAID

2003-02-10 Thread The Hermit Hacker

Evening ...

  Everything I can find in relation to BTX + FreeBSD seems to revolve
around the Compaq servers, and the recommended solution is to disable BIOS
DMA ...

  Well, the Tyan Thunder L-ET doesn't seem to have such an option in the
BIOS, so I'm at a lose as to what to try ... I've upgraded (and tried to
downgrade) the BIO, but that doesn't seem to have helped any ...

  When in teh BIOS, the bottom says AMI BIOs v2.02 w/ Copyright from 2000
... but I can't find an upgrade for that anywhere?

  Do I have a Win/Linux only server? :(  Or is there something else I can
try?

Thanks ...

5.0-CURRENT, yes.  Not 5.0-RELEASE.

Commits to branches (such as RELENG_5_0) have a special mail header,
and are noted as such in the commit log.

Release branches (like RELENG_5_0, RELENG_4_7_0, etc) only receive
security fixes.  Stable brances (like RELENG_4) receive merges from
the head of the tree (5.0-CURRENT).  See the handbook for more
information about the FreeBSD CVS tree structure.

Re: Fixit disk documentation

2003-02-10 Thread taxman

Excellent.  So many people talk about writing good docs, but you've done it.

The only quibble I have is that is seems more like a handbook topic than a FAQ 
entry.  Especially as it grows.  It could eventually be expanded to a fuller 
list of sources of general disk recovery information.

> I'm not sure this is the right place to put the information,
> but I couldn't see any better place."

How about section 12 of the handbook.  I think the best option would be to 
place a short bit in the FAQ and point to the handbook doc.  The storage 
section seems an appropriate place given reiterating the need for good 
backups.  
Just my $.02

Tim

P.S.  A similiar entry summarizing the answers to "I just deleted all of...  
how do I get it back?"  Seems very useful.  I'm willing to write that this 
weekend if someone else is willing to mark it up.

NIS/YP/LDAP question

2003-02-10 Thread Rob B
I have about 5 machines at home, networked together.  Usually, about three 
of them are in use at any given time.  To save updating various bits of 
info when I make a change that would affect them all (adding or renaming a 
host, changing a user password etc.) would it be a good idea to use NIS/YP 
or some such service?  This way, I would only have to make a change on the 
server and have it reflected on the various hosts.

What would be an alternative to NIS in this situation?  LDAP? anything else?

cheers,
Rob

Not about the infamous 1024th cylinder "limit," but the /extended/freebsd

I tried a couple of times to install FreeBSD 4-STABLE after Win2K after 
Win98.  When installing Win2K after Win98, MS automagically configures 
Win2K's installation partition as extended (apparently, even if W2K is 
installed on a different disk than W98).  Then I'd look at things with 
fdisk and it would show me Win2K's extended partition/slice going all the 
way to the end of the disk.  So I'd remove W2K and reinstall it, leaving a 
FreeBSD-sized gap between the end of W98 and the beginning of W2K.

Any special magic to install FreeBSD after an extended partition, or you 
just went about business as usual and can't figure what on earth I'm 
talking about?  ;)

Re: X problems on i810 | AddScreen/ScreenInit failed

To my knowledge, DRI extensions have never worked with i810 on FreeBSD.
 Whenever I felt tinkering with the config to see I could enable DRI, it
wouldn't take, but I don't think it ever mucked up my screen.  My video monitor
did have some trouble with the DDC option (on my stable partition, just after
I had upgraded the bios), but DDC seems to work ok now.  If you do get it 
working, I would stay with a DefaultDepth of 16 instead of 24, as
a setting of 24 tends to slow demanding apps down without noticeably improving 
picture quality.  Notice also that the HorizSync and VertRefresh values are
a tiny bit different on mine as well.

We're not really in a position to install a lot of different programs for
testing; the idea of screwing up 25,000 mails with their clients' names on
it just isn't pretty.  So, then, I could use a few recommendations.  We need
a program that can take a list of email addresses and a message, and deliver
that message to the named recipients, probably by injecting them into
Sendmail's outbound queue.  Extra happy bonus points if the program can be
configured to parse bounce messages to collate a list of dead addresses.


What you want is a mailing list.  Check out MailMan, from www.list.org, 
or the description in FreeBSD's ports:

99-sec% cat /usr/ports/mail/mailman/pkg-descr
Paraphrasing the website:

Mailman is a mailing list manager (MLM); that is, software to help
manage email discussion lists, much like Majordomo, LISTSERV, and the
like. Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives each mailing list a
web page and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, and change their
preferences via the web. Even a list manager can administer his or her
list(s) entirely via the web. Mailman integrates many common MLM
features, including web-based archiving (though it also has hooks for
external archivers), mail-to-news gateways, bounce handling, spam
prevention, Majordomo-style email-based list administration, direct SMTP
delivery (with fast bulk mailing), digest delivery, virtual domain
support, and more.
[ ...rewrapped above text for mailing list... ]

Also, I've followed some online instructions to make a few (16)
subdirectories under /var/spool/mqueue, and added to the local freebsd.mc:

define(QUEUE_DIR,`/var/spool/mqueue/q*')dnl
define(`confMAX_RUNNERS_PER_QUEUE', `16')dnl

Does FreeBSD have a built-in way for launching a bunch of extra queue
runners, or should that be part of the bulk-mail sending script?


For the volume you're dealing with, simply pipelining mail submission 
via SMTP (rather than by opening connections as fast as your other 
program does) will probably solve all of your issues.

[ That and having mailman trim your mailing list of old email addresses.
If not, next look into deferred delivery mode, persistant host status, 
and then tuning your queue runners further. ]

Re: X problems on i810 | AddScreen/ScreenInit failed

2003-02-10 Thread YOU

My i815e wouldn't run until I did the following:

NoDDC as an option.
Configured horiz & vert according to monitor specs.
Added agp into kernel configuration.
Compiled new agp enabled kernel and installed it.
NOTE: For a test I loaded the agp module and then ran X.
NOTE2: I also took the generic XF86Config and edited by hand so I didn't
have to use -configure.

I don't know if this will help any but that's what I did.

You might want to check your /dev/agpgart as well to make sure it exists.

Bulk email sender (not (NOT!!!) spam) recommendations?

2003-02-10 Thread Kirk Strauser
Note: I'm asking this on behalf of a small company that I work with that
occasionally sends newsletters to customers who have signed up for them on
the company's website.

I'm working with a FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE system that acts as a webserver for a
small hosting firm.  They need to send about 25,000 emails on a regular
basis, and they use Sendmail as their MTA (and they and I have no desire to
change that).  Right now, their mail is send via an in-house program that
essentially calls the sendmail binary a lot of times.  Said program has a
tendency to cripple the server during these bursts, and has no provisions
for anything like collecting a list of bounced emails.

We're not really in a position to install a lot of different programs for
testing; the idea of screwing up 25,000 mails with their clients' names on
it just isn't pretty.  So, then, I could use a few recommendations.  We need
a program that can take a list of email addresses and a message, and deliver
that message to the named recipients, probably by injecting them into

Does FreeBSD have a built-in way for launching a bunch of extra queue
runners, or should that be part of the bulk-mail sending script?

This company's server will be forever grateful for any useful suggestions.
TIA!

I'd recommend p11, which for some reason isn't in the Ports
Collection.  It was written on FreeBSD, so it should be trivial to
add.  I'm copying the authors; Harti, feel like committing?

Hi Daniela - what version of FreeBSD are you using at the moment?  And
what are you upgraging to - that is, what is the CVS tag for the
stable-supfile, should be something like RELENG_4 or RELENG_4_7

I normally do mergemaster at the end, although I understand the big mail 
system changes after 4.5-RELEASE mean you do mergemaster -p _before_ 
buildworld as far as I know.

When I was new(er) to FreeBSD I found the changes after 4.5 so confusing
that I never bother to upgrade pre-4.6 machines to -STABLE, just left them
upgraded to RELENG_4_5 for security updates.

Regards,
Bill.

I've just tried the driver on a 5.0 desktop with nVidia Ti4200 and I get
similar lock-ups.  I also find that I get no display after shutting down
KDE, so it's back to the nv driver for now.  (Tried turning ACPI off etc.)

Have you tried xvidtune? I'm not sure about using it on a laptop display though.

Hi all,

I am running a 4.7-R/sendmail mail server. I currently use procmail on a
few email accounts using a .forward in each home directory. Does anyone
know how I can make a procmail recipe apply to all users on the mail server?

Thanks in advance...

printf...! BSD

2003-02-10 Thread Auge Mike


Hi,
First of all, Thanks to all of you for your help and support.

I have tried to go deeper and deeper to find out how "printf" works. ((( Of 
course the aim of trying to understand the "printf", is to understand how 
the internals of the BSD kernel work))) till i've faced the following
function:

  "fo_write"

which was confusing for me =)

Then, I've figured out that i need to understand two important things in the 
BSD to know how the "printf" works. The first thing is how dose the device 
driver works, and the second thing is the file system, and small knowledge 
about the process structure.

I will try to do that, but which resources can help me. For Linux, there are 
two great book which can make my life easier "FOR LINUX ONLY"
1.UNDERSTANDING THE LINUX KERNEL. 2.LINUX DEVICE DRIVERS.

Now what resources you can recommend for me! I prefer Internet resources.

Yours,

Re: X problems on i810 | AddScreen/ScreenInit failed

2003-02-10 Thread Darren Spruell
Continuing on from my previous posting below, I have scoured some docs 
to make some changes to the XF86Config:

* Added Option "DPMS" to Monitor section (by suggestion of list member)
* Added Option "NoDDC" to Device section (by suggestion of list member)
* Changed Device section to now read as follows, from i810 man page... 
(in short, was using the vga driver, changed to the i810 driver.)


Section "Device"
### Available Driver options are:-
### Values: : integer, : float, : "True"/"False",
### : "String", : " Hz/kHz/MHz"
### [arg]: arg optional
#Option "ShadowFB"  # []
#Option "VGAClocks" # []
#VideoRam16
Option  "NoDDC"
Identifier  "Intel i810"
Driver  "i810"
VendorName  "Intel"
BoardName   "i810-dc100"
BusID   "PCI:0:1:0"
EndSection

The problem now is that when I run "XFree86 -xf86config 
./XF86Config.new", it looks like the X display is coming up but all it 
shows me is a 1 inch by 1 inch white square surrounded by a screen of 
staticy purplish, bluish, and greenish lines.. and stays. Desktop never 
displays.

The log file shows lines like this, with the following error:

Racoon and L2TP?

2003-02-10 Thread Stephen Hoover
Do Racoon and L2TP (l2tpd) work together?

I am trying to make an IPSec VPN server based on FreeBSD for W2K clients,
and I need the L2TP to pass through NAT.

I was able to get l2tpd to work by itself, (by disabling IPSec in Windows)
but when I bring racoon into the picture, W2K can no longer connect. The
error message is that the remote machine was not answering.

I have found several FreeBSD/racoon/IPSec <=> W2K tutorials, but none of
them address the issue using L2TP. It is supposed to work with FreeS/WAN,
but that means Linux:x

Before I rack my brain any further, can someone tell me if this combination
is even possible?


Thanks in advance for the help!

Of course that doesn't explain why I got 10 or 12 copies of Victor's

Are you building from the ports tree?

The port (racoon-20020507a) works for me...

(as root)
# cd /usr/ports/security/racoon
# make
# make install

maybe you should post the specific error messages you're receiving.

This kind of problem is why we have the ports system.

You have to use the native plugin with the native browser.  If you still
see the undefined function error, try rebuilding java/jdk13.

Here's silly question, why does swap appear as a bootable partition and for that 
matter it's own slice?  

How did you partition the drive? 

# fdisk /dev/da0 

should give the partition specs.

It does show the two slices that I created

I've had this problem occur when I forget to
set the partition as bootable/active during
the "fdisk" portion of the install.


You need to mark the partition as
bootable (aka active) as well as

I have had similar problems with php.  You need to use /usr/sbin/daemon

I am on the OS X and Samba lists and posted this question to both lists.
Out of desperation I posted to the FreeBSD list and once again my
question was answered. This list ROCKS!!! The problem is now solved and
both Macs and Windows boxen can get in and save and edit files on the
Samba server.

There are two possibilities to what made this work. One is what was told
to me about creating '.' files for the Macs. The Macs create a '.' file
in the directory to, I'm assuming, hold the resource fork for the file
so the Mac can read it. The other solution might have been that when I
looked back inot the ServerFiles share on the server I noticed there
were already some '.' files created by the Macs. One of these was called
'.FBCLockFolder' I deleted all the '.' files that I found to be created
by the Macs and everthing is working as expected.

Unfortunatley, I tried both solutions at once so can't say for sure
which one was the fix. But I have posted both solutions in case anyone
else runs into this problem.

Thanks Again,

Jon

Ah, yup!  I "tried" to update the *-4-libraries
automagically; I didn't watch the results of get a 
typescript or tee outfile.  Nutshell, somehow only 
part of the port was installed.  

A make deinstall; make reinstall solved the problem.

Um, while I'm posting this I have a question about
which jdk13 to install for mozilla.  I brought over
the Sun source for /usr/ports/java/jdk13.  But I 
see there is a "linux-jdk13" as well.  The former 
doesn't work.  mozilla can't use its plugins because
of an undefined function.  Should I be using the 
linux version?

thanks much,

gary

Dual boot 4.7 and 5.0

2003-02-10 Thread Mike
 I would like to setup a dual boot 4.7 and 5.0 for testing. The 4.7 is
already running. I want to put the 5.0 on the second drive that BSD
see's. Is there anything special I need to do to make the boot loader
see both OS's so I can select which one I want to run? Do I have the
second drive install a bootloader as well or?

Many thanks

Mike

PDP-11 (with RSTS/E) emulator for FreeBSD

2003-02-10 Thread Dan Delaney
Since we're on the subject of archaic software, does anyone know of a 
good PDP-11 emulator that will run on FreeBSD? I'd like one that can 
run the RSTS/E operating system. This is strictly for nostalgic 
purposes :-) I learned how to program on a PDP-11 with RSTS/E back in 
1983. I still have copies of a bunch of the programs I wrote for it.

Also, a DECsystem-10 emulator that can run TOPS-10 would be great! (I 
was using one of those about the same time I was using the PDP-11).

Thanks.

No, I rebooted first and then went to single user mode with "shutdown now"

exec'ing ppp from within PHP

2003-02-10 Thread Manuel Kasper
Hi,

I've run into a very strange problem: consider the following situation on a
FreeBSD 4.7 system with custom /etc/rc* scripts:

- system boots, /etc/rc is executed
- /etc/rc executes a PHP script with a CLI version of PHP 4.3.0
- the PHP script uses exec() on a command like this:

ppp -quiet -ddial test

What happens is that at first, ppp runs fine - that is, until a certain
amount of data has been transferred (about 5 MB). Then it dies without
logging any messages. However, if I use the exact same command directly from
within /etc/rc, ppp keeps working indefinitely without any problems - it
will run for weeks and I can transfer gigabytes of data.

I'm using ppp on a PPPoE connection (via netgraph). Sometimes also, when ppp
has been exec'd by PHP, it immediately errors out, saying "no matching
session" - that line obviously comes from netgraph's PPPoE module. Again,
this only happens when exec'd from PHP - everything's OK from a shell
script.

I simply can't imagine what difference it makes whether ppp has been
executed from PHP or from a shell script once it is running. And yes, I'm
using > /dev/null 2>&1 in the exec() in PHP to make sure PHP won't wait for
ppp - in fact PHP exits correctly after the exec, leaving ppp to run in the
background.

What puzzles me even more is that it doesn't work either when I use PHP to
exec a shell script that in turn executes ppp.

I checked to make sure that PHP doesn't set any ulimits that could get
applied to the processes it creates - it sets none.

I have cvsup'ed to 4.7-RELEASE-p4, made world, did everything to ensure that
every single binary in the system was recompiled, tried it on another
machine, but no such luck.

Could somebody shed some light on this? Are there any other attributes
similar to resource limits that can be inherited by child processes?

Thanks!

Manuel

I've had this problem occur when I forget to 
set the partition as bootable/active during 
the "fdisk" portion of the install.


You need to mark the partition as 
bootable (aka active) as well as 
install a bootloader to the MBR

Just wondering if anyone has a suggestion for an elegant way to start
fetchmail back up for any/all users (with a .fetchmailrc file in their

Would a script in rc.d/ be the way to go?

2. There was no need for "mount -a", everything was mounted.


Then you weren't in single user mode.
Single user mode mounts the / partition as read-only.  If you
failed to do a 'mount -a' (which will remount it read/write)
everything else will definately fail.

Do you have a "one big partition" system?

The free version of the book available at http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/
has been an immense help when I tried to work with branches for the

You can always ask questions about CVS usage here too.  I know
that a lot of knowledgeable people who daily use CVS for their

MBR manipulated ???

2003-02-10 Thread Tim DeMonte
Hi,

If anyone can suggest a solution to my problem, it would be greatly
appreciated...

I have a PC with one IDE harddrive, two partitions, one operating system:
Windows 2000 (partitions are mapped as C: and D: under Windows).  I wanted
to install a second IDE harddrive that came from my colleague's PC.
First, before installing new harddrive, I set jumper to "slave".  I
thought it should not matter what data was on new harddrive and ignored
the fact that FreeBSD OS had been previously installed on this drive.  I
installed second drive, but PC did not boot (did not like the fact that
first drive jumper was set to "cable select").  I moved jumper (too lazy
to remove drive - figured I would get it right within 2 guesses), PC still
did not boot.  Third try - PC booted to Windows as expected, but problem:
only C: mapped (no D:).  Windows asked to be rebooted to update changes -
okay - still no D:.  Remove second drive from system (return it to
original state) - still no D:.  Run "Partition Magic" and find that whole
first drive is designated as 'unknown' format and labelled "FreeBSD...".

It seems the Master Boot Record (MBR) of the first drive was somehow
manipulated by the presence/installation of the second drive.  Everyone I
talked says this should be impossible, but no one can offer any
alternative explanation as to what happened.  I have nearly 10 years
experience setting various multiple OS / muliple harddrive PCs (although I
haven't got around to trying FreeBSD), but I never had this problem
before.

Needless to say, the data on D: is fairly precious to me and I will make
my next move cautiously, but does anyone have a suggestion as to what that
move might be???

It's not, and probably never will be.

You have to change the libcrypt symlinks (manually) to point to libdescrypt;
this may break some other things on the system.

/usr/local/lib/libiconv.so: undefined reference to `nl_langinfo'

2003-02-10 Thread Brett McCormick

I'm attempting to compile mono (version 0.19) and I'm getting the
following error:

Making all in monoburg
gcc -o monoburg ./monoburg.c parser.c -I/usr/local/include/glib-2.0 
-I/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include -I.  -L/usr/local/lib -lglib-2.0 -lintl -liconv
/usr/local/lib/libiconv.so: undefined reference to `nl_langinfo'
*** Error code 1

I get this error whenever I attempt to link something with libiconv.
AFAIK, nl_langinfo should be part of the standard C library, but it is
not.  I haven't always had this problem.

FreeBSD *** 4.5-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE-p2 #11: Wed Dec 18 14:37:34 PST 
2002 :/home/src/sys/compile/*  i386

I am not sure how to fix it.  I have tried recompiling iconv, gettext
and am now trying to recompile glib.

This is causing quite a few problems with compilation/administration.

apache frontpage question

2003-02-10 Thread Dick Hoogendijk
If I want to support the MS frontpage extentions I need to install
"www/apache13-fp" and "www/frontpage" from ports (as I understand).
I do not understand the warning in the (ports) message, stating that
libcrypt.* needs to be linked against libdescrypt.* insteadof
libscrypt.* My question is: how can I be sure this will be true?
Do I need to recompile some libcrypt things too or will this be done by
the ports of apache/frontpage?

Another question is: how safe is supporting the FP extentions these
days?

Re: installworld fails

Hello!

> I usually don't run mergemaster untill after I do a make installworld.

mergemaster -p is a special case. This is meant specifically to run *before
buildworld* (last time I checked), so that all the necessary changes for 
buildworld to complete will be done (such as the famous smmsp user account
when upgrading to 4.6).

Most likely you're missing a shared library somewhere.  You should look
at the config.log in the mozilla build directory.  If you can't figure
out the problem, send me that log.

meta-port KDE twice??

2003-02-10 Thread Dick Hoogendijk
After an upgrade to KDE3.1 I get the folowing results after giving:
"pkg_info | grep kde"

kde-3.0.5   the "meta-port" for KDE
kde-3.1 the "meta-port" for KDE

All works well, but this seems not to be OK. What happened? and how can
I repair things? I don't dare to say "pkd_delete kde-3.0.5" I'm afraid
I'll loose kde-3.1 too. Suggestions?

I did the following:

make buildworld
make buildkernel
make installkernel

< reboot into single user mode >

mergemaster -p
make installworld


just as /usr/src/UPDATING says, and then it failed.
What could be wrong? Have I made a mistake?

IMAP/PROCMAIL/FETCHMAIL Question..

2003-02-10 Thread questions
Hello

I am looking for a bit of direction here..

I would like to use fetchmail to get pop mail and deliver it to a local imap inbox.

I am not sure the bet way to do this. I have fetchmail currently getting mail and 
delivering it to /var/mail.

Can fetchmail do this alone? di I need to use procmail? If I do have to use procmail 
can anybody give me any example fetchmail config.

Thanks
Chris

having syslog log certain results to a mysql database

2003-02-10 Thread Bsd Neophyte
i just finished setting up snort to run along with acid and mysql.  if
followed the tutorial on snort.org.  while the tutorial wasn't too bad, it
left a great deal out, and it was a pain to get things working.

i now have a thought.  i have my firewall sending output to my syslog.  i
would like to set something up similar to what i have with snort.

now, i really know nothing about mysql, or scripting for that matter.  so,
would this be a really big project that is beyond my scope?  or is there
some easy way to do this?

if it is a serious project... what do you recommend as good reading for
someone who is not too technically inclined?
