FreeBSD-MBR is not working
Hello list, when I install FreeBSD alone on my computer the system is booting normally. When I install Windows 98 before and then installing FreeBSD and boot afterwards the computer, the FreeBSD-MBR offers the menue to boot the systems, but every stroke on the keyboard causes a "beep", the countdown to boot the last system is not active and only Ctrl+Alt+Del is possible. 1. Maybe I should say that I installed my FreeBSD with the option: set hw.ata.ata_dma="0" at the loader prompt, because my HDD is not understanding UDMA/33 and higher and I had to configure that manually. 2. Maybe I should say that, if I use the "standard"-MBR from Windows 98 the Windows is starting. That is the reason that I think that maybe something is wrong with the FreeBSD-MBR. Any solutions for this scenario?

mod_python testing using mptest.py failed on FreeBSD5.2.1
Hi All,
Need your advice on mod_python.
I'm running FreeBSD5.2.1, apache+mod_ssl-1.3.31+2.8.19
and mod_python-2.7.10. I have
done the configuration seting on http.conf and restart
my apache.
Apache runing fine, however during my mod_python
testing I got this
error in my httpd-error.log.

I think you will find it was a wise move! The difference between a binary upgrade and an upgrade via CVS or cvsup is the time between creation of the sources. Binary upgrades generally come out durning major releases, for example, from 4.9 to 4.10. Any security patches added between that time were only available with a CVS/cvsup upgrade, followed by a system rebuild. If you're looking for an install-time answer to your third question, I usually download a 'mini' .ISO and install via FTP, to catch the most recent version of the 4.x branch. Then I immediately follow with a cvsup and a make world, followed by a new kernel build. This ensures I have the best sources and most current security patches (that are stable). As to your last question, although I quoted 4.x branch sources/binaries, this all applies the same to the 5.x and beyond. Hope this was a help.

upgrade
moved from slowlaris to freebsd for a web server. it is in a production environment. will a binary upgrade catch all the security updates? should I expect anything to break? (at least web server, ftp and ssh) besides time and effort, how does cvsup and build world compare to binary upgrade? should I run the upgrade from sysinstall from disk, or throw in a cd and use that sysinstall? the quick and dirty of the system is running 5.1 on a dual xeon, hot swap scsi disks, tape drive thanks ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

To enable it you have to recompile your kernel with option SC_PIXEL_MODE enabled (so you can use the raster text mode).

Can I select a single package with PortMnager
Hi Mike, I see from my digging around that you are the author of portmanager, so I hope its ok to send questions in your direction. I have KDE installed as a package, and I assume that its dependency openldap also came as part of the package. Can I use portmanager to upgrade the package ? Also, can I select just one, eg KDE. When I did portmanager -s it ran through all the ports (packages ?) that I installed. I am new to this, and am still confused about the difference between ports and packages. (confused about what I can upgrade in a package that came as a package compared to a package that came from a port) Thanks Peter ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I like many people who are FreeBSD users in one form or another have to use the MS/Windows email clients in the process of earning a living. This is just the reality of working today in the IT field. I have always top posted to this list because that's how office outlook worked. I had previously seen the fix for outlook express and did not find out about the office outlook fix until the fix author replied to my questions about his web site today. I just though there might be more office outlook users on this list who did not know about the bottom posting fix and posted the start of this thread just as an innocent information transfer kind of thing. I was not implying any preference to top or bottom posting. I personally prefer reading a thread composed of all bottom posting or all top posting. When they are intermixed the flow is very hard to follow. Since the majority of posts to this list are bottom posted I though that now that I have a fix for my office outlook to bottom post, I would start using it to do my part to make the threads I post into easier to read and follow the flow of the conversation. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I was sleepy when I replied and somehow missed the important yet subtle detail. I do know the differences of Outlook and OE. I regularly have to read email formatted [or should I say "unformatted"?] by Outlook 2003 for my $realjob and I've used both Outlook and OE in the past. I just felt it was a bit funny to find a message in support of Outlook that exhibited exactly the sort of malformed output that Outlook is known for. What I wrote wasn't meant to be an offense to JJB who's one of the regular posters and *does* contribute a lot to helping others :-) ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

RE: 5.2.1-p9 kernel hang (unknown reason, but more info)
I know this may seem a silly suggestion after all the info you've dug up, but it almost sounds like a bad power supply. I've seen virtually identical problems with my old dual P2/333 box and it turned out to be the AT Motherboard power connectors from the power supply that were screwed up and making a flakey connection. http://life.trollserver.com/image/dsc00332.jpg - very burnt AT connector http://life.trollserver.com/image/dsc00333.jpg - visible scarring on the motherboard itself The electrical engineer explanation is: The power connector was making a crappy connection on one or more of the 5v lines, the others carried the load. Burning caused by the excessive current caused other 5v lines to fail and the load on the remaining got higher still... Queue the cascade effect to utter failure (and nearly a fire.) After getting the power connectors replaced on the power supply and polishing the motherboard pins it worked well for a while and then started acting like your descriptions. The eventual solution (keep in mind this was an old AT board and that this solution is not recommended for the hardware you/the data center have) was to cut the power connectors off completely and solder them directly to the motherboard. no more flakey power issues. :) dave Original Message Follows (note: I'm not subscribed to the list with this email, but I couldn't send this large mail by my webmail) Hey list, Recently my server started failing daily, I though it was because of high loads. Now it even goes down if completely idle after a few hours. I *still* don't have the panic message (lazy datacenter lol) but I booted the server with verbose enabled and got the list of hardware. I also removed any optimizations in sysctl stuff I had added (maxfiles, maxprocs, ipc stuff, etc, all defaults now) The server ran fine for the first 20 days or so, then it kept dying on a daily basis.

Re: burncd: ioctl(CDIOCSTART): Device busy
More of a question, really. Why are you using 'fstat -n'? The -n option would appear to print only device numbers, not device names - therefore grepping for 'acd' will be fruitless, correct?. okay, so fstat | grep cd doesn't reveal anything either. cheers iain ORIGINAL MESSAGE hi there, i'm running freebsd 4.10 with a kodak CR-R drive. i can mount CD-ROM's in the drive with no problems, but when i insert a blank CD-R (cdr not cdrw... i checked!!) into the drive and attempt burncd i get the error burncd: ioctl(CDIOCSTART): Device busy i tried "fstat -n | grep acd" but no programs appear to be using the drive. the light on the CD drive keeps blinking orange too, indicating that it is trying to read the drive or something similar, but i have not issued any 'mount /cdrom' command. i found a similar problem in the lists archive posted by a guy named willian denton last year, but couldn't find any resolution to the problem. i emailed him to find out if he ever solved his problem but have not yet received a reply. [actually, i have now received a reply... he said he never solved the problem, he just bought a new drive. my drive works fine in other machines, and i can mount CD-ROM's with it, so i don't think it is broken] http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2003-October/004262.html _ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Re: Top posting solution
Here's a good reason to top-post: I'm referring to the message as a whole, rather than to the content. This message came in while I was writing my previous message in this thread. It shows *exactly* the points I was referring to. Yes, the reply is posted at the bottom, but the quoted text is mutilated beyond what anybody could have believed 20 years ago. Your reply appears to refer to the last paragraph only (I suppose; I can't read the message), but you've (mis)quoted it in its entirety. A question to you: do you like the appearance of this message? Or do you do it because it's too difficult to write a tidy reply? I suspect the latter, and that's the point I'm trying to make. I do occasionally have to use "Outlook", and I find it incredibly painful to use.

You should be able to write text anywhere you want in a reply. Even most Microsoft-oriented MUAs allow that. >> There is a little known fix for MS/Outlook express and MS/Office >> Outlook email clients that change the behavior of these MS/Windows >> email clients so they adhere to the Unix email format of posting the >> reply to the bottom of the email while indenting with a quote >> character. Yes, I refer to it at http://www.lemis.com/email/fixing-outlook.html. Unfortunately, it doesn't address the basic problems with "Outlook". > "Fix" is a loaded term which presumes that something is broken. I think that "Outlook" is broken. Putting the text in the right relative place doesn't help much if it's so difficult to write well-formatted messages that most people don't bother. What any good MUA needs is a text editor (or, preferably, an interface to one) that makes it easy to send well-formatted messages. >> To all you Unix hard liners, Please instead of complaining to the >> top posters, it would be so much nicer if you just informed the >> [truncated by sender] > > It would actually be much nicer if they'd just quit trying to > enforce their preferences on others. It would actually be much nicer if people would return to literacy standards that existed, not only in the computer world, before Microsoft came along. I've long given up actively trying to help people write literate mail. I just ignore their messages. That's not helpful either, except to me. >> MS/Windows top poster of the above links so they know about the >> solution to fix their email clients to adhere to the Unix email >> format used on this list. > > Please provide a cite/ref to the "Unix email format" as something > more concrete than your personal definition. And more concrete than > RFC 1855, whose second sentence reads: "This memo does not specify > an Internet standard of any kind." RFC 1055 is a good start. What matter is that the second sentence states (obviously incorrectly for an RFC)? It seems that you'd reject anything which isn't concrete enough for your own way of thinking. Certainly I don't think of a "Unix email format" (or even a "UNIX email format"); I just like to be able to read messages which don't make themselves painful to read, that don't contain lots of irrelevant junk, and that don't give me the impression that the sender is only semi-literate. For more details, you might like to take a look at http://www.lemis.com/email/email-format.html, though I suppose you'll find a reason to reject it. Greg -- Note: I discard all HTML mail unseen.

Thanks for the reminder, I neglected to include that in my original email.
I do have the above mentioned options in my /etc/rc.conf:
# -- ipf stuff --
ipfilter_enable="YES"
ipfilter_program="/sbin/ipf"
ipfilter_rules="/etc/ipf/ipf.conf"
ipnat_enable="YES"
ipnat_program="/sbin/ipnat"
ipnat_rules="/etc/ipf/ipnat.conf"
ipmon_enable="YES"
ipmon_program="/sbin/ipmon"
ipmon_flags="-Ds" # typically "-Ds" or "-D /var/log/ipflog"
# -- end ipf stuff --
I also checked the kernel to see which modules where loaded currently :
# kldstat -v
Id Refs AddressSize Name
1 11 0xc040 2f65bc kernel
Contains modules:
Id Name
1 IP Filter: v3.4.35
2 isa/ata
...
Im still getting same kmem error tho,
# ipfstat
ioctl(SIOCGETFS): Invalid argument
openkmem:open: No such file or directory
any Idea why I don't have the device /dev/kmem ?
# ls /dev/k*
/dev/kbd0@ /dev/klog

Top posting solution
Over the years I have seen many posts on this list where Unix hard liners complain about people posting their replies to the top of the email messages on this list. The fact of life is all the Unix mail clients adhere to the Unix email format of posting the reply to the bottom of the email while indenting with a quote character. Top posting came along when MS/Windows came on the market with their own email clients: Outlook express which is the email client built into Internet explorer and the MS/Office Outlook email client. There is a little known fix for MS/Outlook express and MS/Office Outlook email clients that change the behavior of these MS/Windows email clients so they adhere to the Unix email format of posting the reply to the bottom of the email while indenting with a quote character. Information and fix download can be found at these URLs. MS/Outlook express http://home.cs.tum.edu/~jain/software/oe-quotefix/ MS/Office Outlook http://home.cs.tum.edu/~jain/software/outlook-quotefix/ To all you Unix hard liners, Please instead of complaining to the top posters, it would be so much nicer if you just informed the MS/Windows top poster of the above links so they know about the solution to fix their email clients to adhere to the Unix email format used on this list.

Re: Replacing Bind8x with Bind9
BIND 9 requires a good source of randomness to operate. It also requires configuration of rndc, including a "secret" key. If you are using FreeBSD 4.x, visit http://people.freebsd.org/~dougb/randomness.html for information on how to set up entropy gathering. Users of FreeBSD 5.x do not need to perform this step. If you are running BIND 9 in a chroot environment, make sure that there is a /dev/random device in the chroot. The easiest, and most secure way to configure rndc is to run 'rndc-confgen -a' which will generate the proper conf file, with a new random key, and appropriate file permissions. I guess I really need a bind9 on FreeBSD doc. That can answer all my questions. I can't find anything that suites my needs on ISC.ORG. Has anyone come across a well written bind9 doc? I purchased the Complete FreeBSD book and several others they however don't cover Bind9 nor does the handbook. I bought the BIND9 and DNS from Oriley however that will be a few more weeks of reading. I am in need to get BIND, POSTFIX, MySQL , APACHE, installed quickly. Any sources of well written docs are welcome.

OK, great. Thanks for that.
But here's what I don't understand. If you run make options in the port,
you get --with-mail-gid=foo. So why is it MAIL_GID=foo in the
pkgtools.conf file? Is this in the handbook somewhere? Or in the man

Problem: ipf - /dev/kmem errors
Hello everyone,
I'm currently using a generic pc running, that is acting as a router. The
routing works fine, but ipfilter does not.
Pentium III (801.82-MHz 686-class CPU)
memory = (128 MB)
5.2-CURRENT #1
here is part of my kernel config file :
>--snip--<
# IPF stuff
options PFIL_HOOKS # pfil(9) framework
options IPFILTER
options IPFILTER_LOG
options INVARIANTS #Enable calls of extra sanity
checking
>--snip--<
the kernel seems to load the module {from dmesg}
IP Filter: v3.4.35 initialized. Default = pass all, Logging = enabled
yet when I try and verify which rulesets are loaded, I get kmem errors.
# ipfstat
ioctl(SIOCGETFS): Invalid argument
openkmem:open: No such file or directory
I did read that in 5.x /dev/kmem was changed/removed for security, if
thats the case what is the facility that ipfilter uses ?
thanks for any help,
D

you can name things as you like - but try to be mnemonic).
or alternatively do (and preferably from single user mode, with a "mount

This is a 5.2rc1 > box in need of updating. =) Well, yes, sort of. It won't just add the space to the current space. You would have to move the current /usr filesystem over to that filesystem and then make a link to it. Then the new space would replace the previous space as where /usr lives. Possibly a better way to deal with it is to pull out a couple of the larger directory trees in /usr and move them to the new space and link them. Some good candidates might be /usr/local, /usr/src and/or /usr/ports. If you have put users home directories in there, in someplace such as /usr/home, then that might also be a good one to move. You can check space usage for directory trees with du(1) cd /usr du -sk * Say you want to move /usr/local to live in /muz, where you have scads of space. Do the following. (I have my own naming convention that helps me keep track of things you can name things as you like - but try to be mnemonic). cd /usr/local tar cvf /muz/local.tar cd /muz mkdir usr.local cd usr.local tar xvf ../local.tar cd /usr mv local local.old ln -s /muz/usr.local local Now go check and make sure you got things right - do cd /usr/local and look around and make sure stuff is there. a pwd should show you to be in /muz/usr.local when you to cd /usr/local. Then clean up. cd /usr/local pwd (just to check and be sure it is /muz/usr.local) rm local.tar cd /usr rm -rf local.old voila, you just freed up the /usr/local space from /usr and put it in /muz Do the same for /usr/ports and whatever else makes sense. jerry ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

5.2.1-p9 kernel hang (unknown reason, but more info)
(note: I'm not subscribed to the list with this email, but I couldn't send this large mail by my webmail) Hey list, Recently my server started failing daily, I though it was because of high loads. Now it even goes down if completely idle after a few hours. I *still* don't have the panic message (lazy datacenter lol) but I booted the server with verbose enabled and got the list of hardware. I also removed any optimizations in sysctl stuff I had added (maxfiles, maxprocs, ipc stuff, etc, all defaults now) The server ran fine for the first 20 days or so, then it kept dying on a daily basis. Unfortunately i still don't have the panic message. But if someone can give some hints based on hardware list+dmesg+mptable, it would help. I've been shooting in the dark so far..

Hmmm, now that I noticed. You don't need to add a trailing '\n' to the
string of ctime(). It already has one:

That's because struct timeval's members are `long' not time_t.
printf("%s\n", ctime((const time_t *) &tv.tv_sec));
Add to your includes too and sort them in this order:
#include
#include
#include
System headers first, the rest afterwards; each list sorted
alphabetically unless there is a good reason to do otherwise.
This becomes handy when there are long lists of headers as it's easy to
spot and fix duplicate includes :-)

You'd have to use strftime() and a local buffer for that.

ps/2 mouse not detected when no keyboard is present
Hello all, Here is my problem. I've got a fanless computer with a FreeBSD 5.2.1 embedded in a CompactFlash card. On this appliance, I must plug a PS/2 mouse but NO keyboard. When I boot the appliance with a keyboard and a mouse, no problem, atkbdc0 is detected, with atkbd0 and psm0 on it. The problem is that when I boot with no keyboard, the controller (atkbdc0) isn't detected any more, so the mouse (psm0) isn't detected ; dmesg doesn't show atkbdc, atkbd or psm. Does anyone know what can I do ? I must be able to boot with a mouse but no keyboard. I tried setting different flags for atkbd0 in device.hints. Maybe there's a way with the kernel, sysctl or device.hints, or something else, to have an atkbd0 "detected" even with no keyboard plugged in. Or to force the detection of the controller atkbdc0, on which is the mouse. Thanks for any answer, I really need help, I didn't find something similar on google and I don't know what to do for now. I think it's a problem with the way atkbdc works so I didn't included a specific dmesg, but if you want more info, dont't hesistate to ask.

Note that it's a good idea to explicitly specify that main() does
nothing to its argument with:
int
main(void)
{
...
}
and that main() has to `return' some value that fits in an `int' as its
definition says it should.

You're passing the "value" of tv.tv_sec in a function that expects a
pointer to it.
% man ctime
char *
ctime(const time_t *clock);
The value you passed to ctime() is not an address of a constant time_t
object but the value of the time_t object itself. The compiler detects
that a conversion from an integral type to a pointer needs to take place
and warns you about it.
This is not a fatal error (c.f. the rationale of the ANSI C99 standard,
which specifies that pointers might be converted to integral values and
back to the same pointer type without losing any information). However,
it is usually a very common mistake (forgetting to pass a reference to
the object and passing the object itself). This is why you get warned.
Try calling ctime() with the address of tv.tv_sec:
printf("%s\n", ctime(&tv.tv_sec));

Basically, to replace the base BIND 8 installation, you need to append the following to your /etc/make.conf: PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND9=YES NO_BIND=true Then, cd to /usr/ports/dns/bind9 and do a "make install clean" to install it. The PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND9 will cause the port installation to overwrite the base version. The NO_BIND will prevent your ports version being overwritten when you next build and install world. I don't believe the chroot startup support in /etc/rc.d/named for 5.2.1 works for BIND 9, as it's designed for BIND 8. Setting up chroot for BIND 9 is a little more involved (from what I recall) than for BIND 8. I do believe there is a small tutorial out there somewhere. (I ran across one when I was setting up my BIND 9.) Of course, you will also need to configure BIND 9. It is stricter than BIND 8, and will fail to startup on certain configuration errors that once were treated as warnings. > Is there a command to run to replace bind8 durring install?
