KDE
Hello: I just installed FreeBSD 4.10, and everything went all right. I typed: startx, and I could enter KDE and do some tweakings. Then I shut down and rebooted, and something happened I cannot enter KDE, nor as a root or as a user anymore. I get the message: X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown) Does it mean I'll have to re-install? After install I just had to re-enter my root password and sign me up as a user again, because the install didn't keep those settings. That's why I shut down and rebooted, to test if everything was all righ then. All help will be appreciated.

Is it possible to set-up a USB Printer in Freebsd?
Hi, I have an old model Epson C20UX USB Printer and I usually print in my Windows OS(dual boot) using that printer. For long, I did not bother to read the section in the handbook(setting up printer) because as I have said earlier.. I print my MSWord document in Windows.. But now that I have deleted my Windows partition and I'm only running FreeBSD alone, I did a quick skimming in the Setting Up Printer section of the handbook and I have found out that, like the modem installation, freebsd only supports printer connected to serial or parallel ports.. Now I have a big problem.. I can only think of two things, either repartition my entire pc, and of course.. the worst.. buy a new parallel/serial printer.. Any idea what should I do???

For details of the what, how, why, when and anything else related to the submit mode you should refer to this guide[1], the FreeBSD Handbook, and Sendmail's own web site[2]. Perhaps a small description of submit mode would be enough to help you understand what it is. Quoting section 1.3.3 of the guide referenced above: 1.3.3. /etc/mail/submit.cf This is the configuration file for sendmail when it is used for initial mail submission, in which case it is also called ``Mail Submission Program'' (MSP) in contrast to ``Mail Transfer Agent'' (MTA). Starting with version 8.12, sendmail uses one of two different configuration files based on its operation mode (or the new -A option). For initial mail submission, i.e., if one of the options -bm (default), -bs, or -t is specified, submit.cf is used (if available), for other operations sendmail.cf is used. Details can be found in sendmail/SECURITY. submit.cf is shipped with sendmail (in cf/cf/) and is installed by default. If changes to the configuration need to be made, start with cf/cf/submit.mc and follow the instruction in cf/README.

Mozilla 1.7 more unstable than 1.6?
Hi, I have just upgraded my mozilla install from ports collection to version 1.7. Since then, mozilla seems to crash frequently (once a day or so) when webbrowsing. When I then revisit the same page it crashed on, there is no problem. This makes the error rather unreproducible. (Much less frequent I had hangs with Mozilla 1.6, but that seemed to be related to difficult webpage designs, which hanged Mozilla each time I visited the site; with hang I mean, mozilla windows are still there, but no reponse to key or mouse input anymore). Apparently there's some bugs in 1.7 that accumulate and then crash the application; crash means here that all mozilla windows simply disappear, instantly gone. Anybody else experiences this? I wonder if it's a mozilla bug or a more freebsd related issue. These are my installed ports (related to Mozilla): mozilla-1.7,2 jdk-1.4.2p6_4 linux-sun-jdk-1.4.2.05 linux-flashplugin-6.0r79_1 linuxpluginwrapper-20040310_2 mplayerplug-in-2.66 plugger-5.1.2 Regards, Rob. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Cables are simple and cheap. USB is superior to RS232 Serial and to Parallel for printing, but it is not as well supported under UNIX® systems. A way to avoid this problem is to purchase a printer that has both a USB interface and a Parallel interface, as many printers do. note that the degree of support available will more likely have to do with the quality and popularity of your printer than with your usb port. though cheap ink jet win-printers are popular, they tend not to be nearly as well supported as many of the somewhat more expensive laser printers.

I can only think of two things, either repartition my entire pc, and of course.. the worst.. buy a new parallel/serial printer.. if you insist. though, i'd suggest a 3rd alternative - paying the handbook a closer read. you might also find this article helpful. http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2004/07/08/FreeBSD_Basics.html hth, epi Any idea what should I do???

mmap()ed filenames?
Is there a way to get the filename of an mmap()ed file in the current process? For example, in Linux I can open /proc/self/maps and get the filenames right there. However, if I try to open /proc/getpid()/map on FBSD, the only mapping info is vnode or default on FBSD 4.10-BETA. Is there any way to convert this info into the filenames of mapped files?

You need to pick addresses within the netblock to use for myserver and all the other machines on your network. Since myserver can reach the internet just fine, you should keep the IP address for vr0 the same, just lengthen the netmask to allow the use of 192.168.1.0/24 on the LAN. ifconfig(8) understands CIDR notation just fine, although it's not usual to configure an interface using the '.0' /network/ address. Look on it as a third alternate way of specifying the netmask, so that the following three examples are equivalent: ifconfig fxp0 inet 192.168.123.74/29 ifconfig fxp0 inet 192.168.123.74 netmask 0xfff8 ifconfig fxp0 inet 192.168.123.74 netmask 255.255.255.248 Those correspond to the slightly contrived example of the /29 network starting with network address 192.168.123.72 and running up to the broadcast address 192.168.123.79 Note: you can give a broadcast address on the ifconfig command line, but usually it's not necessary as a standard value will be calculated from any ip number forming part of that network and from the netmask. However you can't in general use ip address + broadcast to do the converse, as there isn't necessarily a unique solution.

Is there any way to convert this info into the filenames of mapped files? Or perhaps an alternate method to accomplish this goal? That's a generally hard problem -- given some sort of open file, find the file name it was opened as. Most unixoid OSes don't record filenames used on open(2) to go with file descriptors or areas of mmapped data because it's a waste of space. And there's no reliable way to work backwards from the open file to a file name. The problem is the filename comes out of the directory structure: it's not kept with the file contents. And any particular file my have links from any number of directories under as many different names (none of which is /the/ name of the file: hard links are all equal precedence). It can even have *no* filename at all -- if you (for example) open the file in one process, and then delete it from another, the first process will be able to read and write to the file completely normally, although closing and then re-opening the file will be impossible. Similarly for renaming an already open file. You might think of extracting the inode number (easily done using fstat(2)) and searching the whole partition for file paths matching that inode number. That is, if you like horribly inefficient code vulnerable to all sorts of race conditions and other nastyness. The best answer is to redesign your application so that if it needs to know filenames, it saves the filenames it originally used to open those files with.

Need a network file system with Windows client and freeBSD server
Hi! I need sime kind of network file system which has a FreeBSD server and Windows clients (particulary Windows XP) and that FreeBSD file share must be mounted on Windows XP under a drive letter. Windows client is FAR FAR away and is behind nat. Traffic costs a lot, so that file system must not waste it for nothing. Of course, security is very important and security based on IP address is impossible, because client is behind nat. I have checked the following: 1) Samba3 I think i could use it with user security (not share or maybe mixed) but i am not sure about making it open to internet and also i think it wastes bandwidth. Am i wrong? 2) Coda FS Nice thing, but i could not figure out how to manage user passwords and there is no working windows xp client. I tried it - not luck for me. 3) AFS No idea is AFS Windows client exists and no FreeBSD server. 4) NFS Well, i like it very much because we use for freebsd file shareing since year 2000. Hoever, i could not find free NFS client for Windows (but, hell, i'll buy it) but what's worse i get figure out how to make authorizartion based on user/password and not on /etc/exports. I need something more secure. Also, am not sure about bandwidth usage. Any help will be very appriciated. Regards, Artem Kuchin General Director of IT Legion Ltd.

Re: mmap()ed filenames?

For example, in Linux I can open /proc/self/maps and get the filenames right there. However, if I try to open /proc/getpid()/map on FBSD, the only mapping info is vnode or default on FBSD 4.10-BETA. Is there any way to convert this info into the filenames of mapped files? That's a generally hard problem -- given some sort of open file, find the file name it was opened as. Most unixoid OSes don't record filenames used on open(2) to go with file descriptors or areas of mmapped data because it's a waste of space. And there's no reliable way to work backwards from the open file to a file name. You can use the lsof command in ports, which will dig through the kernel's file name cache and print at least some names. FreeBSD 5.x's /proc/*/map does the same thing for you. If you use lsof, for any files missing filenames, you can try and find the name by running find / -inum , where is the number in the NODE column. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you're talking about the -p flag to ipfw, that's just for parsing config files (like what cpp does with #include and #define for C). Take a look at divert sockets for a way to capture packets from ipfw into a program, and then reinject (or drop) them. See the divert and ipfw manpages. natd uses divert sockets, so you can look at its source to see how they work. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

100Mbit/s LAN slow, TX only ~3MB/s (esp. file transfer) -- why?
Hello list, here's the situation: a small LAN with two FreeBSD machines (one 4.10-STABLE, one 5.1-RELEASE-p11), one Gentoo box, one Windows 2000 Laptop. All the machines have 100Mbit/s capable network interfaces, configured for full duplex and auto-negotiation, and actually running in 100baseTX-FD mode (5.1 uses rl0, 4.10 dc0, Gentoo and Windows are also equipped with RealTek RTL8139 NICs). They are all connected through CAT5 UTP cables and a 5 port 100Mbit/s switch. All machines except the FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE box are quite capable (800MHz--1GHz, 128MB--640MB RAM, (U)DMA mode harddisks, etc). The 5.1 box is an old 200MHz Pentium-MMX, 64MB RAM, slow disks. Here's the problem: Using FTP to transfer a 600MB file (ISO image) from one FreeBSD machine to the other runs only as fast as 3MB/s (maximum). Transferring the same file from the Gentoo box to one of the FreeBSD machines runs equally slow. Transferring the file from the Gentoo box to the Windows 2000 laptop however runs fine with about 10MB/s. Transferring from FreeBSD to Windows 2000 is slow again (2--5MB/s). Using SCP gives me a maximum of 1MB/s tranfer rate, on all possible connections and client pairs. I suppose this could be SCPs fault since it needs a fast CPU to encrypt and decrypt the data, but 800MHz and 1GHz ought to be enough so that this shouldn't be a bottleneck, hm? I've also tried connecting the machines directly via a crossover cable, to no avail. 4.10 -- 5.1 is still 3MB/s, Gentoo -- Windows 2000 runs even faster, and Gentoo -- FreeBSD is also about 2MB/s. I remember that about a year ago with the same setup (except for the 5.1 box, which I didn't have back then) FTP speed was most excellent, transferring a 1GB file took about 3 minutes. Now it seems to take forever to copy just 50MB. So why could this be? I am mostly interested in the two FreeBSD machines, why would that be such a slow connection? Because the 5.1 box is quite old? Could the RealTek card have a problem? The switch is almost certainly not faulty. Also why would a transfer between the 4.10 box and the Gentoo machine take so long? As I mentioned, a year ago I was enjoying TX rates of almost 11MB/s between the two of them. I believe at least part of the problem lies with the FreeBSD machines, so I am asking for ideas on what this issue could be, how to investigate further to track down the possible sources of the problem and how to solve it. Sorry for this lengthy post, I tried to give as much information as possible and make clear that I have already invested a good amount of time and effort to debug and solve this myself, but I am running out of ideas. I also posted on two other boards but nobody could suggest anything actually useful. I refuse to believe that this is the expected mode of operation for FTP (and even SCP) :-) Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

In my experience, no, there is no solution to your problem. The resason is this: 1) You expect people to be able to work on mapped drives (i.e. z:) 2) You are trying to hold down the bandwidth usage These two goals are contradictary. You'll have to give up one or the other (unless there's some filesystem technology out there that I'm not familiar with) No matter how efficient the file-sharing protocol is, the fact that you've got the filesystem mounted as a network drive will push tons of extra data through the pipe. Windows is not used to high-latency links for file- sharing, thus the performance will be noticably bad. In my experienc, Windows users don't understand the idea of latency either, thus they will click on something three times when they should just wait for it to finish loading, thus generating more bandwidth. Also, directory listings, polling for changes to directories and all sorts of other things that Windows does with drives will push tons of network traffic across the link, thus driving up your costs. This has been my experience. Perhaps your users are smarter and more disciplined than the people I was working with, but mounting a network drive under windows carries a lot of traffic with it as baggage. I've never measured exactly how much, but it's more than most people realize. For example, I've found that a 1.5mb/sec T1 line isn't really fast enough for a single SMB mounted drive. If I were you, I'd set up some sort of tunnel and run a pilot test with 1 user. I don't expect you'll be happy with the results, but it is possible that I didn't set things up as well as could be the last time I did this. Just be aware of the network traffic, as it ended up being a lot more than I expected. You'll probably have better results setting up some sort of terminal serer (either VNC or MS terminal server) and allowing users to work on the remote files that way. Terminal servers still use a lot of bandwidth, but they're designed for slow links, so it's not quite as bad (this may or may not be the same in your scenerio, as working with HTML files might not generate as much traffic as the MS Access files we were working with). -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Windows client is FAR FAR away and is behind nat. Traffic costs a lot, so that file system must not waste it for nothing. Of course, security is very important and security based on IP address is impossible, because client is behind nat. I have checked the following: So, basically you are saying that there is no solution for what i need? WinSCP does not suit my needs, because people on windows client must be able to work on files (mostly html) using different software and it is not just about moving then around, but rather editing with special editors and after editing they must see the result right away on the web server. In my experience, no, there is no solution to your problem. The resason is this: 1) You expect people to be able to work on mapped drives (i.e. z:) 2) You are trying to hold down the bandwidth usage These two goals are contradictary. You'll have to give up one or the other (unless there's some filesystem technology out there that I'm not familiar with) No matter how efficient the file-sharing protocol is, the fact that you've got the filesystem mounted as a network drive will push tons of extra data through the pipe. Windows is not used to high-latency links for file- sharing, thus the performance will be noticably bad. In my experienc, Windows users don't understand the idea of latency either, thus they will click on something three times when they should just wait for it to finish loading, thus generating more bandwidth. Also, directory listings, polling for changes to directories and all sorts of other things that Windows does with drives will push tons of network traffic across the link, thus driving up your costs. This has been my experience. Perhaps your users are smarter and more disciplined than the people I was working with, but mounting a network drive under windows carries a lot of traffic with it as baggage. I've never measured exactly how much, but it's more than most people realize. For example, I've found that a 1.5mb/sec T1 line isn't really fast enough for a single SMB mounted drive. If I were you, I'd set up some sort of tunnel and run a pilot test with 1 user. I don't expect you'll be happy with the results, but it is possible that I didn't set things up as well as could be the last time I did this. Just be aware of the network traffic, as it ended up being a lot more than I expected. You'll probably have better results setting up some sort of terminal serer (either VNC or MS terminal server) and allowing users to work on the remote files that way. Terminal servers still use a lot of bandwidth, but they're designed for slow links, so it's not quite as bad (this may or may not be the same in your scenerio, as working with HTML files might not generate as much traffic as the MS Access files we were working with). This is probably very bandwidth intensive (please correct me if I'm wrong); but provides another option. I've been sharing files with relatives across the US using WebDav and SSL (on Apache2). Basically, I setup a secure web server (port 443?), blocked port 80, implemented user-password authorization in Apache2 and activated webdav on the shared folders. Authorized Windows users mount web folders, which appear as drive letters. The use of SSL protects the username/password as well as the content in transit.

Re: I downloaded everything to no avail! ISO's fail to burn
Hey great advice thanks. I was wondering about that Boot cd burn. Now I guess I have to study some since it just Halts. I read some other guy had the same thing happen lol. I know I was reading that you need to reformat and partition a space for FreeBSD. I don't think this does all the reformatting itself. I didn't read that it did. I know most people like me start asking questions before they have read, But I was reading. That ASCII vs Binary I knew nothing about before. Someone did tell methe other day in an email through this. I can't believe the support you all give. This intrigues me. I want to accomplish this soon. Get in the game. I have three pc's since I can build them so I will dedicate at least one to this op. I hope all someday maybe since I have been having programs crash lately on windows 2000. I can't understand it. Fresh reformats too. Not sure if Microsofts upgrades are even causing conflictions. Anyway if you have one quick answer about that HALT deal where pressing ENTER doesn't start loading anything. In fact I couldn't select anything from that menu. I wonder if that will ever function for me? I hope. I will start reading too step by step also. First of all, please send your messages to the list and not just to an individual. It allows more people - who probably know more than me - to see, and maybe respond to, your questions. I may not be around for a while to see the question of may not know enough about, or be interested in continuing with, the thread. Plus it only gets added the archive if it is posted to the list. All messages to the list are archived and become part of the knowledge base for the system. Secondly, please break your lines at around 70 characters length. It makes it much easier to read and respond, especially for those who are using a text based Email reader. You can either set your Email client to do this or just hit a RETURN/ENTER at about that length for each line - just like with the oldfashioned typewriters. I have no idea what you are talking about with the 'Halt' You do not give any information about what is happening. What are you doing when it 'halts'?

Anyway I just discovered FreeBSD yesterday. I read all about it and I am excited to intrigue myself with this new pc adventure. Sounds great and I will learn something about code at the same time. I feel it had a kind of old school feeling to it, at the same time cutting edge technology. I am a believer in it's viability over Microsofts Windows. They love to hide information from us not inform us. The reason I am writing. I downloaded the 5.2.1 IS0's. I burned the boot disk successfully it seems. But I tried to burn the first big ISO file and it failed to burn. Some type of burn error following the track or something. Then I tried that other download that isn't the ISO but the regular files. That wouldn't do anything either. It burned but I can't instal it. That doesn't boot. Or install in anyway. I am wondering if FreeBSD is actually free or is this a way to get us to order the retail box lol. I don't want to feel that way. Yestersay I was so excited about this. I hope you can enlighten me some. Yup it is free. No scam. Probably you did something wrong. I am not familiar with all the various CD burner software packages, but I have notice two problems show up the most often. The first is downloading the ISO image in ASCI mode. This produces a corrupt image that won't work. Make sure you specify binary mode when you do the ftp. With command line FTPs, it is just a matter of typing binary when you are in the ftp session. The other most popular problem is trying to create a bootable ISO from the image. It is already a bootable ISO image and needs to be burned straight to the CD without the utility trying to make an ISO or add any boot blocks or whatever with it. Just burn the straight data. You should also tell it to fixate. This stuff really does work once you get the details right.

Openssl doesnt seem to be using the hardware crypto card when used with sendmail. Sshd on the other hand does use the card. Im using hifnstats to check if the hardware is being used.

I get the screen saying to load default by selecting 1
Hey everyone. First of all sorry for replying directly back to people when I was nicely given a reply. I didn't really know how this worked. Just starting out. I won't do that again. I wasn't sure when I did reply and never replied to them all since it would have been outrageous rofl. Well I finally burnt all the ISO's with all your help. I did make sure my FTP was in BINARY mode. At first I just downloaded them from my browser which might have been corrupting them. Then I integrated my FTP program into the browser so it automatically opened when I went to download. I set it to Binary and it downloaded fine. Not sure if it actually was corrupting it since I also got a bad burn again on the second disc I was burning. The first burn was fine. Anway I turned it down to 12X burn speed and they all recorded great. Though yesterday I ordered some discs off Ebay. From a guy that says he contributes to FreeBSD with the profits. I hope so. QUESTION. I know I may be asking this question too soon. I should read that install book over. And take it step by step. I will. But for now I would enjoy a few replies on it. When boot up from the miniinstal and the screen comes up giving me the options it doesn't let me select anything. I want to select 1 or enter for default. It doesn't work. Then Hault comes up and it's over. I know I was reading you want me to reformat a partition ready for freebsd so maybe that is it since I have an op on it already. I read that I need to use my current op's operating system FDISK or I would use Diskpart myself. I just thought Freebsd would load it up and give me a reformat option at startup.

FreeBSD 5.1 - WinXP Networking Problem UPDATE
Hi Everyone ... thanks for your help thus far. I've
made some changes below. [I have Not made all the
changes that you've kindly suggested but enough that I
am able to ping back and forth ... if I have ignored
your suggestion and you still see a gapping error,
please feel free to reinterate, I won't hold it again
you!]
OK, the changes ...
-I got rid of the ifconfig_vr0
-I set ifconfig_ed0 to 192.168.0.1 (where as _vr0 was
initially set as the gateway)
- I tried pinging from Freebsd to 192.168.0.4 the
WinXP #2 machine. and got through!
- I tried pinging from the WindXP #2 to itself at
192.168.0.4 andit got through.
- I tried pinging from the WindXP #2 to ed0 at
192.168.0.1 andit got through!
BUT I still cannot get the WIN XP webbrowser to read
the internet.
What is wrong?
I think that the
natd_flags=redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.3:80 80
should be:
natd_flags=redirect_port tcp 192.168.0.1:80 80
I will try changing this and see what happends

Opened by PID 222
Also, a small problem --- I have a webserver running
on the Freebsd box but everytime I reboot, I get a new
IP address(from above: 6X.9X.11X.3X). The fixed IP
address always seems to be: 6X.23X.25X.12X. However,
I have my domain name set to redirect towardsthe
dynamic address so everytime I reboot, I have to tell
the DNS server that holds my domain name my new IP
address. Is there a way to configure it so that I
don't have to continuously change the IP address on
the DNS?
Should I just get rid of the line:
ifconfig_vr0=DHCP
and set the DNS to 6X.23X.25X.12X? Would that do the
trick? Or should I get rid of ifconfig_ed0=DHCP?
Thanks again
MY original Post
I have a Freebsd 5.1 box connected to the internet.
It works. But I am now trying to network two other
Win XP machines as per the following network
hierarchy:
Setup
ISP- DSL Modem - FreeBSD box :
1) vr0 192.168.0.1 [Gateway machine address]
2) ed0 192.168.0.3 [Internal Network address]
connects to:-
4- port HUB -
1)WinXP machine #1 192.168.0.2
2)Freebsd Box 192.168.0.3
3)WinXP machine #2 192.168.0.4
Problem:
I cannot communicate to the Internet from WinXP #2
(Have not tried to config WinXP #1 yet).
Browser Config
IE Brower Settings for WinXP #2 {ToolsInternet
OptionsConnections)
-I set the browser so that it never dials a connection
because it is suppose to be networked right?
- in the LAN Settings option, I set the Proxyserver
option with the address of the gateway of 192.168.0.1
with Port 80
Dialouge
From Freebsd Machine
# ping 192.168.0.4
PING 192.168.0.4 (192.168.0.4): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Host is down
ping: sendto: Host is down
-at one point I was able to ping the freebsd machine
from WinXP #2 but then for some reason, I made a
change and cannot ping anymore...

Teaching FreeBSD..
Good Afternoon, My name is Martin Laflamme - I am the President of a training company in Ottawa, Canada called Marketbridge Technologies. Apx. a year ago, we hired a BSD expert - Dru Lavigne. Her skills and expertise in BSD and various UNIX platforms has impressed us. We therefore decided it would be only logical to start offering BSD training. She also authored BSD Hacks published by O'Reilly. Our best marketing tool would be advertising right on freebsd.org. If possible, we would like to find an agreement with freebsd.org to advertise on your website. In exchange, we could provide compensation for every student who registers - perhaps 10 or 15% of the course fee. And, of course, it gets BSD out there a lot more. Various companies in Ottawa, Canada think about going to Linux for their products lines - we have been approached for BSD courses in order to help these companies decide if they should use BSD or Linux. I look forward to hearing from you.

ext3 mount (safe?)
Hi, I read in list that FBSD doesn´t support ext3 filesystems, but it can be mounted with ext2fs. It´s safe mount in write mode? I´m afraid of lost same data of journal and crash my filesystem (I lose once in Linux). I have WXP (for my sister, of course), Linux and FBSD 5.2-RELEASE. I mount the ext3 with ext2fs(ro) and msdosfs(rw); since, I ever get boot warnings messages of umount not properly in all my slices and the shutdown give 2 buffers that don´t sync (I think), samething like 13 13 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2, what I did wrong?

Linux Compatibility
Hi I have a freeBSD 5.2-CURRENT version running on a intel dual processor machine. I need to turn the LINUX COMPATBILITY ON, but unfortunately the source code for this version is not on the system. If I do a sysinstall to obtain the source code, the system fails to find the matching version and if i set the option to any release or download any other version (say 5.2.1-RELEASE) and modfiy the Kernel Configuration file GENERIC to add the option COMPAT_LINUX, I get a error on running config(8). this error points about a version mismatch Can anyone point me to the source code for 5.2-CURRENT release or help me add the linux compatibility option and turn the linux compatibility ON.

You need to pick addresses within the netblock to use for myserver and all the other machines on your network. Since myserver can reach the internet just fine, you should keep the IP address for vr0 the same, just lengthen the netmask to allow the use of 192.168.1.0/24 on the LAN. ifconfig(8) understands CIDR notation just fine, although it's not usual to configure an interface using the '.0' /network/ address. Look on it as a third alternate way of specifying the netmask, so that the following three examples are equivalent: ifconfig fxp0 inet 192.168.123.74/29 ifconfig fxp0 inet 192.168.123.74 netmask 0xfff8 ifconfig fxp0 inet 192.168.123.74 netmask 255.255.255.248 Those correspond to the slightly contrived example of the /29 network starting with network address 192.168.123.72 and running up to the broadcast address 192.168.123.79 Note: you can give a broadcast address on the ifconfig command line, but usually it's not necessary as a standard value will be calculated from any ip number forming part of that network and from the netmask. However you can't in general use ip address + broadcast to do the converse, as there isn't necessarily a unique solution. I apologize for asking this question here, but I've googled and read arp(4) and arp(1) and nothing I can see gives a clear answer (at least clear to me). It is related to this thread. Is it the subnet mask that lets my computer know that for an IP address located external to my network it should send the packet to the router (using the router's MAC address) instead of arp-ing for the MAC address of the target node? This is the only way I can see that this would make sense, as arp -a doesn't seem to return the MAC addresses of boxes on the other side of my router under any circumstances. I read a document online that suggested that a router would recursively ARP for a non-local MAC address but this seems insane and highly improbable to me. More likely is that my computer, knowing that an IP address is not local by examining the network address, would choose a route from its routing table, arp for that router's MAC address, and send the packet thither. But is that what actually happens?

Vinum questions

Anjuta and libtools problem
This problem may be related to the problem reported in this post: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-questions/2004-June/049088.html When trying to Autogen a new project, the configure script bails with the message: ... ./ltconfig: Can't open ./ltconfig: No such file or directory configure: error: libtool configure failed I then created an empty ./ltconfig file inside the Project directory. This fixed the Autogen process, but the build is nevertheless broken. When I build a wizard generated test project, I get the following message: ../libtool: Can't open ../libtool: No such file or directory I do believe him that there is no ../libtool. So I tried to change ./ltconfig to contain a line emitting where I have libtool installed, like so #!/bin/sh echo /usr/local/bin and another version #!/bin/sh echo /usr/local/bin/libtool15 however, to no avail. I also tried symlinking libtool to different versions like libtool13 and libtool15, and also copying a libtool executable to ../ relative to the project directory, nothing works. Now I am clueless.

Basic Question (I think): Upgrading xargs
Hi, Just wondering what the easiest way to upgrade xargs would be. I'm running 4.5-RELEASE (yes I know -_-, new build is coming with the new machine). Anyhow I've been constantly getting errors when ever I try to make anything from ports and it seems to be xargs being an older version or something like that, doesn't see the -E flag as being valid. What do I have to do to get this fixed ?

What do I have to do to get this fixed ? There are plenty of ways, but they all involve some understanding of the build process. If you need to ask, the simplest answer would be upgrade to a more recent version of FreeBSD. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
