Mozilla taking awfully long time to work
Hello everybody... Ive got these 2 problems with mozilla (either 1.0.2 or 1.2.x and if i'm not mistaken older versions as well) Problem 1: Well, i use another pc to connect to the net, using dhclient. If i'm connecte and i run mozilla, it starts fine... Then i get disconnected, i quit mozilla, and if i'm to run it again i have to wait 3 to 4 minutes for it to run. I see my cpu-meter flashing for just a sec and then it starts using cpu again after 3 to 4 mins, which is when it finally starts the application.. Problem 2: I am connected on he internet just fine, (downloading ports, etc etc.) but when i try to make an http connection with mozilla, it hangs on the Resolving host... msg... Then, after 3-4 minutes again it decides to proceed on the Connecting.. and Sending request.. msgs... Any ideas?? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

What you describe, in slightly different words, is EXACTLY what the tag RELENG_4_7 is :-))) I thought it was 4.7 with **ONLY** security and **ONLY** critical updates, NOT anything else. That's exactly what it is. It is a security branch[3]. No new features are added to it. Not even manpage updates. The security branches *only* receive absolutely minimal changes to fix any problems related to security they might have. My impression was 4_7 was just those items, 4 was those plus other non-important and things to get us to the next level. No, that's RELENG_4. The security branches[3] like RELENG_4_7 *only* receive critical security related fixes. That's it. Nothing more. They are not the same as RELENG_4. So your telling me that if I CVSUP 4_7, I technically will get the same tree as 4 up until the day the uname banner changed to 4.8-PRERELEASE? Thats not my impression of what 4_7 is. I don't know what you mean by 4_7. In fact, before this turns out a very confusing thing for both of us, since you seem to mean different things by saying critical fixes than I do, please, if you still feel confused about tags their meaning and what the release process of FreeBSD is, refer to the following documents: [1] FreeBSD Release Engineering. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/article.html [2] The FreeBSD Handbook.

FTP installation through a NAT on a DSL connection
I'm installing 4.7 at home. The Intel box is behind a NAT running on a Win98 box with ZoneAlarm running. The point of installing 4.7 is so that I can replace the 98 box as my gateway to my Verizon DSL connection. My installation fails when the program tries to access one of the ftp servers. When the time-out occurs I get an installation media error message. I know that my subnet on the NAT works because when I plug a 2000 machine into the gateway I can access the Internet. However, I had to lower the Max MTU settings in the registry to do it. I understand that PPPoE requires a lower MTU setting, but I'm not sure how to set MTU in the installation program.

Re: FTP installation through a NAT on a DSL connection
On Saturday 22 February 2003 16:55, Vaughan Moore wrote: I'm installing 4.7 at home. The Intel box is behind a NAT running on a Win98 box with ZoneAlarm running. The point of installing 4.7 is so that I can replace the 98 box as my gateway to my Verizon DSL connection. My installation fails when the program tries to access one of the ftp servers. When the time-out occurs I get an installation media error message. I know that my subnet on the NAT works because when I plug a 2000 machine into the gateway I can access the Internet. However, I had to lower the Max MTU settings in the registry to do it. I understand that PPPoE requires a lower MTU setting, but I'm not sure how to set MTU in the installation program. Can anyone help me with the problem? Vaughan Moore I'm almost sure MTU is not the problem in this case, the Windows machine should be taking care of that. Try setting FTP into passive mode in the installer's options screen, or turning off passive mode if that's the default on your version.

Telnet in works but it is hanged after a while and dropped eventaully. CVSup runs overnight still not done, but it does make progress. ifconfig tells me autoselect with 10baseT as current which is correct. The flag is 8843. Same slowness was not observed under Windows.

RE: Verizon DSL FreeBSD?
(snip) I also don't user Verizon for an ISP because they don't permit local servers. Not true at all. i'm guessing you're talking about the inconvenient way some Cable/DSL ISPs block incoming connections on common server ports (25, 80)? Verizon DSL does not block port 25 in the NorthEast. Port 80 appears blocked (Bah!), but they claim they don't block any ports. I was told it could be the DSL modem (Westell Wirespeed A90-210015-D4), but as far as I can tell, it isn't configurable, and doesn't block ports anyway. Odd thing is that the port 80 trace stops at the modem. I've never been able to figure this out. I am also a Verizon DSL customer. They have given me a similar model of the wirespeed dsl access point. They gave me a Westell Inc A90-210015-04 and do not block any ports period. Next month, Comcast (formerly ATT Broadband (formerly MediaOne Broadband)) is supposed to turn on the digital upgrades in my area, so I'm probably going to switch over. Oh, and BTW, other than port 80, Verizon DSL/PPP works great with FreeBSD. They dont block 80 on my box, allthough that might be a config setting not set in my area.

My /etc/ppp/ppp.conf contains the following: verizon: set server /var/run/internet Hidden set device PPPoE:xl0 set mru 1492 set mtu 1492 set authname hidden set authkey hidden set log Phase set dial set login set ifaddr 10.0.0.1/0 10.0.0.2/0 enable lqr add default HISADDR disable iface-alias iface clear It is possible that some change to my set ifaddr line could help, but I don't know what it should be. Then again, that could be the only right one there.

Actually, it is a clause for termination on most networks that cover homes. When Code Red hit, I was told by my old ISP that I was in violation of their TOS. I was seeing x,000 hits a day and when it got that high, they noticed. When several of the search engines start indexing my system at the same time, the hit count also goes up. The old ISP also told me that I could run a casual web server when I signed up. Their TOS says you have to have it in writing, which I didn't. When the hit count reached some rate, I appeared to have crossed their magic barrier separating casual-personal and business oriented. Verizon locally doesn't use a ppp based setup. My local ISP provides two static IPs and up to 20 via dhcp. When my DSL line doesn't work, I call Verizon's 888...1234 # and they work with me while I am on the telephone, which has been typically 2-4 am. If they can't fix it that way, Verizon tells me it will be fixed by 7 pm that day and a repairman shows up. The people on the East side of the Columbia River have Qwest and in the past, they had the reputation of taking days on simple repairs. I don't have any idea how they deal with repairs at this point because the computer oriented people that I knew have all moved out of the area. The only person left doesn't know how to get into his bios. When he gets back from 3-weeks in México, we are going to work on that :). I think that is similar to not letting one of the kids drive alone until they can prove they can change a flat tire. usually this is only a real annoyance because you can't set up a mail server for your incoming SMTP email. if you have access to an outside Internet server, and you run postfix on it -- you can route incoming mail through the outside server, and using the postfix transport table forward the mail to a sendmail or postfix instance running on a high port on your internal server. works great! I use kmail on kde-3. My ISP is Linux based and is running SpamAssasin. I can use it and not have to figure out how to make everything run. It all depends on the irritation factor. When it reaches some point, I will do what you are doing. ...or like you said, just don't use that ISP :) That is always a choice.

I even eliminated the virtual hosts and all the creative stuff, and nothing changed. Frustrating huh ? Oh, yeah. I would be tempted to momentarily lift any firewall you have, to make sure something has not got twisted up in the rules, or changes made to the O/S or get something else listening on port 80, The moment I lifted the firewall, all my connections to the external system died. I should try remembering this, since I do something similar every now and again. Unfortunately, when I kill the firewall rules, I have no NAT translation to get a VPN connection back from my Windoze box to the system at work. Bah. I did notice one interesting thing. When I reconfigured Apache to listen on port 8080, it worked fine. What I only just realized, is that I never put a rule in the firewall to explicitly open port 8080. The rule used for port 80 is as follows: ${fwcmd} add pass tcp from any to any 80 setup netcat or something like that (I think it goes under the name nc in FreeBSD). Put your web-server on another port 8080, for example. Is it a proxy problem ? I guess you have run through all these possibilities... Well, good luck..you can always ask me if there is no external tester to hand, I work at home mostly, so it's no sweat to me..on a fixed price 24/7 ADSL link..so no expenses involved :) Thanks. I appreciate that. I'll read a couple more things and see what happens, but I'm getting pretty close to my tolerance for now. It was suggested that port 80 really is being blocked by the ISP, but who knows. They say they don't do it. I'm not inclined to wait on the phone for an hour to argue with them over it right now, either.

Re: FTP installation through a NAT on a DSL connection
You're one step closer. When doing network configuration, make sure you list a valid and real DNS server. Try setting it up to use the DNS at your ISP, or the winroute if it provides DNS.

There are some other fields in fstab that 'mount -p' will give default values, but that you'll probably want to set to something useful.

Re: USB flash drive mount - da device?
Darren Spruell [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Greetz, I use a USB pocket drive and am having the hardest time figuring out how to mount it into the filesystem. Following are what I thought to be important: [snip] Generally I use the command 'mount -t msdos /dev/rda0s1 /mnt' to mount this to my filesystem. Sometimes it works, sometimes it fails. When it does work I can only mount it as root. In order to be able to mount this as a regular user, do I have to put some flags into a line in /etc/fstab? What would be the best way to make this drive user mountable? The other question is, is there a better way to mount up the device or control it via a usb tool or is the way I am doing it correct? I'll tell you what I do with a CompactFlash card, which I believe should work for you as well. Most of the time I just need to copy over the stuff from the memory card to local disk. So I have a script that: 1. mounts the device 2. copies everything over from the card to a directory on the local disk 3. unmounts This script is hooked from pccardd (and in your case it'll be hooked from usbd) so it runs as root. I'm using the -nrp flags to cp, so it won't overwrite any existing files. This works ok if whatever is writing to the device is always generating fresh names for new files (which is true in my case). If there is possible name-collision, you can change the script to put everything in a directory with a timestamp in its name. Now, for the times I want to directly manipulate the CF card (usually big deletions), I use the automounter. It'll automatically mount the card when I access /auto/localhost/cf, and unmount it after 5 minutes of no access. You need to remember not to pull the card/usb-thingie out while it's still mounted (if you're in a hurry, become root and umount). For more details about this, I recommend reading http://www.daemonnews.org/200202/automounting.html Also, for msdos mounts, it's usually most convenient to chown the directory underneath the mount point so it's owned by the primary user of the machine and his/her group. This way, once the files are copied over by the script, they're still owned by you and you can write or delete them easily (I found that the -u and -g flags to mount_msdos don't help you here: cp -r will still create any intermediate directories as root/wheel). Note you can use either the usbd/pccardd hook or the automount method, or both - neither depends on the other to work. -- Dan Pelleg To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Fwd: Cvsup Handbook Example
Since the major portion of the world's misery, both past and present, can be directly attributed to organized religion, I find this incessant prattling about the demon (INTENTIONAL misspelling) logo and some of the other things like this thing below to be totally offensive. The Middle East is in a shambles and those people have been squabbling for 5000 years over who's ideas about God are right. Europe has fared no better and neither has the New World - just ask the Native Indian population. Millions of people have died over religion. It doesn't really matter which one. Pick one - they are ALL equally guilty. The short-sighted narrow-minded viewpoint expressed below is PRECISELY the mind-set that encourages and promotes things like the Inquisition. Since it does nothing but add to the sum total of human misery, I find postings like this to be highly offensive. If you think that you might be going to hell over reading something that says cvsup666, then you are probably already in one and too brainwashed to get out. At http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html, cvsup666 is used as an example. Out of all the possible three number combos, why was 666 used? As a Christian, this does bother me and I would like to know why exactly it was used. I do not think this is being extreme or unreasonable.

Compiling Question
Hi all! Tonight I synced my source with Release 4.7 and recompiled. Prior to recompiling, I modified the make.conf file to NOT compile a number of items, like games, sendmail, etc. I'd like to try to build a lean system from source. After the entire source compilation process, I still found those items on my system. A review of the man page for make.conf leads me to believe that those items did not compile, yet the old versions still remain on the system. Am I correct? If this is true, how does one go about compiling a lean system with the essentials only? Can the make.conf file be modified in such a way to remove items from the system, like sendmail, games, etc.? I read the man page for make.conf then searched it for the word remove, but nothing is there. Thanks for the help!

Re: ps: proc size mismatch
In [EMAIL PROTECTED], Chris Pepper [EMAIL PROTECTED] typed: I know that, because I haven't done make installworld yet, but I'm trying to validate the new kernel first. Unfortunately, there isn't much info on how to validate the kernel (if it boots to the shell, is it fine??). It's a pretty good indication, but not definite. I once tripped over a bug in a SCSI driver that caused failures under load, so I could do an installworld but not a buildworld. If you've got the time, you can always try running a buildworld on the new kernel. That's a thorough stress test. Is there anything else I should test before make installworld?

Re: Hardware support under UltraSPARC
The 3c590 uses the 'vx' driver which is PIO/MMIO only. If it compiles on the sparc64 I suspect it will work fine.

Look at the http://www.FreeBSD.org/projects/busdma/ for more information on busdma. More specifically, you can look at the xl(4) driver which has recently been converted to busdma and made endian-safe. is the freebsd-sparc kernel not open source? i cannot compile/custimize it myself? Err, the FreeBSD project is entirely opensource. The biggest part of the kernel is MI (machine independant) and thus doesn't have to be changed to work on other architectures. A smaller part of the kernel is MD (machine dependant) and needs to be written for every different architecture we support. The sparc64 specific sources of the FreeBSD kernel can be found in /usr/src/sys/sparc64.

I plan to put freebsd5 on a sun e250, this is a pci based ultrasparc machine, but at the same time, this machine has a non-sun hardware, which is a network card thats originally for x86 machine. This card is working probably under solaris w/ some non-official driver, is supported under linux/x86. My question is, will this card, intel fastethernet 100, or 3com590 work under freebsd/ultrasparc w/ some tiny tinkering? It's unlikely, since the drivers for those cards are commented out in sys/sparc64/conf/GENERIC. The drivers probably need work to use busdma. I don't remember whether 3c590 cards are supported by xl(4). If so, it should just work on sparc64. It hasn't been uncommented in GENERIC yet, but I'll do it a second. The Intel card won't work on sparc64 yet, but I'm currently working on the fxp(4) driver for the busdma conversion. Once this is done, we need to make it endian-safe in order for it to work on sparc64.

Vinum, concantination and filesystems
Can I do this: I want to create a new filesystem that I can grow and/or mirror later by adding more drives without losing my existing data. I have been reading about Vinum but haven't found anything about growing filesystems without losing data. I am talking about some like Partition Magic. I have done a bit of searching for 'growable' filesystems under FreeBSD but I haven't been able to find much of anything about anything besides ufs. Also, I can't seem to get dns resolution for the Vinum website. Have these guys not been paying their bills?

A review of the man page for make.conf leads me to believe that those items did not compile, yet the old versions still remain on the system. Am I correct? If this is true, how does one go about compiling a lean system with the essentials only? Can the make.conf file be modified in such a way to remove items from the system, like sendmail, games, etc.? I read the man page for make.conf then searched it for the word remove, but nothing is there.

HOWTO upgrade a FreeBSD production server
I'm hoping to get a few suggestions on a quick and safe method to upgrade a FreeBSD production server. To date, I've been doing the following: On a like configured staging server, cvsup the src tree. Then perform a full build and install as outlined in /usr/src/Makefile. After confirming that the host operates as planned, I create a tarball of /usr/src and /usr/obj. I then transfer and extract the tarball on the production server(s), where I then perform installkernel / reboot / installworld. I'd like to find something a little quicker that doesn't require so much free space on the production server. I've looked at DESTDIR and creating a tarball of that directory on the staging server, but I've had problems during extraction with files and the 'schg' flag. Any suggestions?
