Re: ntpd as broadcastclient - not working?
Thanks Harlan for your reply. More below... At 01:52 8/29/2004, Harlan Stenn wrote: I'd recommend the latest ntp-dev tarball Why the ntp-dev? From what Danny Mayer says, there was a broadcastclient bug that was fixed for -Nix on 2004 March 25: http://Bugzilla.NTP.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267 According to this listing: http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/ there is a 'stable' version as new as 2004 Jun 17. I am looking for a simple and reliable solution to use my existing NTP broadcasts (using Tardis) to synch up my FreeBSD box. Using a 'development' version implies that it hasn't been certified to be used in a production environment, correct? once you have it: % tar xvzf ntp-dev-whatever.gz % cd ntp-dev-whatever % mkdir A.x % cd A.x % ../configure % make % su # make install # /usr/local/bin/ntpd -gN -D2 (or whatever) Thanks for this procedure list. I actually did the following: # cd /usr/ports/net/ntp/ # make deinstall (went to /etc/rc.conf and commmented out lines concerning NTP, then rebooted to disallow the ntpd program from running) # mkdir ntp-stable-4.2.0a-20040617 cd /usr/ports/distfiles/ #ftp ftp open ftp.starhub.net.sg ftp cd /pub/funet/unix/tcpip/ntp/xntp/udel/ntp4/ ftp get ntp-stable-4.2.0a-20040617.tar.gz ftp exit # cp -p ntp-stable-4.2.0a-20040617.tar.gz /usr/ports/net/ntp/ntp-stable-4.2.0a-20040617/ # cd /usr/ports/net/ntp/ntp-stable-4.2.0a-20040617/ # tar xvzf ntp-stable-4.2.0a-20040617.tar.gz # mkdir A.x# Why 'A.x'? Would 'temp' work? # cd A.x # ../configure # make # make install The 'make install' seemed to go smoothly , but I cannot find the new executables for NTP. The old ones from 2003 Oct 27 are still in /usr/sbin/. When I try to find any files modified in the past day and run: find ./ -name *.* -mtime 1 I don't find 'ntpd' or any other new NTP related executables. Does anyone know why I can't find the executables, and why the old ones are still here? Where should the new ones be? And remember that you need to use authentication by default if you are using broadcast. If you do not want to use authentication you will either need a line in your ntp.conf file (I forget what it is, but it should be easy to find) or use -A on the command line. Right. This is what I have been using in rc.conf: xntpd_enable=YES xntpd_flags=-A -c /etc/ntp.conf -p /var/run/ntpd.pid -l /var/log/ntpd.log It's pretty easy to set up authentication. Well, I am sure it should be, but I can't find a clear, step-by-step procedure for it. ;^) Again, Tardis does not have the option for authentication--as far as I know.

Re: ntpd as broadcastclient - not working?
The ntp-stable tarballs are curently less-complete (less up-to-date) than the ntp-dev tarballs. I suspect Danny's patches have only been applied to ntp-dev, but depending on when I last pulled ntp-dev back to -stable some of them might be there. Basically, we run ntp-dev all over and are expecting very few changes between ntp-dev and what will become ntp-4.2.1. We know that broadcasts work with networks that use ntpd. I have no idea what tardis is doing. The fact that they apparently do not support any authentication mechanism for broadcasts is troubling. As for the documentation, this is a volunteer project. There are at least three documentation channels: - the official pages (submit your ideas to Dave) - the FAQ (submit your ideas to Ulrich) - the twiki (edit/add pages as you see fit) If you post improved documentation to the newsgroup and you post permission to have your information used in the twiki, there is a chance somebody will see it and also copy it there. In general, I do not copy content from the newsgroup to the twiki without explicit permission.

Question on ATM w/ FreeBSD
Hi All, Can I plug in an ATM DS3 into something like a Cisco Lightstream LS1010 with a DS3 card, then plug a PC running FreeBSD and Quagga, with a Marconi Forerunner HE155 using the fatm() driver, into a OC3 card on the LS1010, then define a VC, switch it through the switch, and run data over that? We are looking into bringing in another feed this time via ATM DS3, and I don't think that a DS3 ATM card exists for the PC that has a FreeBSD (or Linux) driver. However I see a number of PCI ATM lan adapters for PC's. It seems that an ATM switch, of which there are plenty available, would be the way to get from one to the other. However I have not dealt yet with ATM switches, is there anything inherently different about ATM on a lan adapter like the HE155, and ATM on a DS3?

pentium II cpu cache prevents boot
Hello All, I've been trying to install FreeBSD-4.10 stable on a PcPartner BXA828D mainboard. This mainboard features the Intel 82440BX chipset, and I fitted it with a Pentium-II 450mhz with 512kb cache. Furthermore, I've added one vga adapter and two nic's (RTL8139). Storage is in the form of one generic ATAPI cd-rom drive and one Western Digital caviar AC21200H (1.2gb) ide disk. I used 256mb ram, as well as a 64mb module. Now I have been unable to boot FreeBSD 4.10-stable on this system unless I turn of the internal cache. This is what I did and I installed the minimal FreeBSD distribution this way from the cd. I then tried to boot from the hard disk, but the same problem: it'd only boot with the cpu's internal cache turned off. With cache turned on, it would load the kernel but at the point where it normally shows the copyright message it hangs (or reboots sometimes), the screen does flicker momentarily as it normally does before printing the copyright message. So, I tried a linux distro (Mandrake 10.0), which booted just fine with the cpu cache enabled, which makes me think the cpu cache is not defect or anything. Then I tried FreeBSD 5.2.1, which also wouldn't boot with cpu internal cache enabled. Also tried disabling ACPI on both 4.10-stable and 5.2.1. Now my last hope is to build a new kernel on the installed 4.10-stable, which will obviously take a while with the cache disabled. In the mean time, does anyone out there know what's going on here?

Re: ntpd as broadcastclient - not working?
FreeBSD appears to expect these NTP programs to be in: /usr/sbin/ No, that's where FreeBSD expects the *stock* versions to go. If that's where something in /usr/ports/ put them, you'd have to ask the port maintainer why. Doing so is against normal guidelines. Danny will have to comment on the broadcast issue.

LDAP, pam, nss
In order to get centralized logins to work on my Linux Debian computers (authenticating of a RedHat Samba server), I have to: install libnss-ldap libpam-ldap. Perform some configuration on the of /etc/libnss-ldap.conf and /etc/pam-ldap.conf files. Edit the /etc/nnsswitch.conf file. Then I can check that the packages have been installed by issuing the command nscd. Finally to get authentication happening in specific applications, I go to the directory /etc/pam.d/ and edit the service files there though which I want such authentication to occur. Now, of course, no one here is looking for instructions on how to do something on Linux, but I was now wondering what it is I need to do on my FreeBSD server to get this functionality working? I can't seem to find anything similar so far in my searches. Thanks for any pointers in the right direction.

variable-length packets on top of TCP/IPv4. The problem is that the length
field of the packet is silently being mangled first becoming 0 and then
getting turned into a very large number (about 2-3 billion). The length
field is a u_int32_t and I am using the byteorder routines. Source code
snippets follow:
--decl of struct packet_t--
struct packet_t
{
u_int16_t num;
u_int32_t len;
char data[0];
};
--receive code--
if (read (s, auth_header, sizeof (struct packet_t)))
{
perror (srvrmond read: could not read from socket);
exit (2);
}
auth_header - num = ntohs (auth_header - num);
auth_header - len = ntohl (auth_header - len);
--send code--
struct packet_t *auth_data2 = malloc (sizeof (struct packet_t) +
AUTHCOOKIE_S\
IZE + sizeof (time_t));
auth_data2 - num = htons (100);
auth_data2 - len = htonl (AUTHCOOKIE_SIZE + sizeof (time_t));
fprintf (stderr, Packet payload length: %lu, ntohl (auth_data2 - len));
long temp = htonl ((long)time (0) 0xff00);
memcpy (auth_data2 - data, cookie, AUTHCOOKIE_SIZE);
memcpy (auth_data2 - data + AUTHCOOKIE_SIZE, temp, sizeof (time_t));

Re: Variable length packets?
In the last episode (Aug 30), Lucas (a.k.a T-Bird or bsdfan3) said:
I am trying to implement a custom protocol that sends and receives
variable-length packets on top of TCP/IPv4. The problem is that the
length field of the packet is silently being mangled first becoming 0
and then getting turned into a very large number (about 2-3 billion).
The length field is a u_int32_t and I am using the byteorder
routines. Source code snippets follow:
--decl of struct packet_t--
struct packet_t
{
u_int16_t num;
u_int32_t len;
char data[0];
};
If these are different OSes, the structure may be packed differently.
There's almost certainly two bytes of padding between num and len to
ensure that len is 32-bit aligned, for example.
If you run ktrace on your client (or server), the kdump output will
include a hexdump of all data read or written, which might help you
determine what's going wrong.

Re: newest kdelibs fails to build
First of all, ports like XFree86 and KDE are really not worth maintaining from the ports. Packages do much better for these softwares. If you really want to compile it from the ports tree, then go ahead. It seems to me that somehow wrong arguments are being passed to c++ as a result of which the entire scenario arises. Although highly unlikely but it is possible that the Makefile has been corrupted while syncing.Could you try a recvsup with ports-all? After that make clean without the s and portupgrade -a. After that try rebuilding KDE. Regards S. On Mon, 30 Aug 2004 22:01:07 -0400, Steven Friedrich [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Monday 30 August 2004 09:54 pm, Subhro wrote: cat /etc/make.conf Regards S.

Re: Question on ATM w/ FreeBSD
it was said: Can I plug in an ATM DS3 into something like a Cisco Lightstream LS1010 with a DS3 card, then plug a PC running FreeBSD and Quagga, with a Marconi Forerunner HE155 using the fatm() driver, into a OC3 card on the LS1010, then define a VC, switch it through the switch, and run data over that? However I have not dealt yet with ATM switches, is there anything inherently different about ATM on a lan adapter like the HE155, and ATM on a DS3? Hello, The HE155 uses the hatm(4) driver. From the man page: The hatm device driver supports the FORE (now Marconi) HE155 and HE622 ATM interface cards. The driver interfaces with the natm(4) framework, netgraph(4) and the HARP ATM stack. It provides only PVC services. Signalling, ATMARP, ILMI and other higher layer protocols are implemented using netgraph(4) or HARP. So the remaing question is can the LS1010 do what you want. IIRC, the LS1010 is very similar to the Catalyst 8500 series, Unfortunately, I am more familiar with the latter than the former, so I cannot answer definitively. I know it has support for PVCs, asymmetric circuits, and bridging to a LAN, so I would be surprised if it couldn't (but not very surprised, you know how Cisco can be some times ;-)). To answer your last question about inherent differences in ATM, no. But ATM is a protocol suite consisting of three layers: physical, ATM, and AAL. Just be sure you use the same AAL config on each end. Because the telco dictates their end, just match it and you're set. HTH, Stheg HTH, Stheg __ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

Re: burncd problem err=16 any ideas?
What type of ATA cable are you using? The 40 conductor type or the 80 conductor type? Does your burner support some kind of underburn protection? Could you paste sysctl -a | grep dma without the s ? FreeBSD requires IDE drives to be fixed on the cable in a particular order, ie the master drive goes in one end and the slave comes in the middle. It is recommended not to reply on CS and assign the drives to be master/slave the hard way, err I meant the manual way. Also if you intend to burn CDs/DVDs on the fly then the source and the destination drives should not be on the same Bus. Could you tell us about your setup? Regards S.

Install the following ports: /usr/ports/security/pam_ldap /usr/ports/net/nss_ldap Edit /usr/local/etc/ldap.conf, build /etc/nsswitch.conf, and edit the files within /etc/pam.d.

Re: 3Com Etherlink III ISA support [was Question]
it was said: by: A W Sorry im a total Newb to this Freebsd thingy. But if i were to do wat u told me to do and get Version 2.2.2 of FreeBsd, Which files do i need to start the installation? by: stheg olloydson I used that card in 2.2.2. (My first FBSD install!) As I remember, I had to run a 3Com DOS utility to set the physical parameters manually. Then I configured FreeBSD to use those settings. I would think later versions would support that card, as well. You probably just need to do what I did. If you don't have the 3Com disk, you can download what you need from their site. Hello, Please keep the list in the loop. Hold on there! I didn't say to run 2.2.2. It was nice back in the day, but if you were to run it now, the Huns would sack your village. What I meant to communicate is you should use the 3Com software to configure the NIC manually and then enter that configuration - if needed - when setting up your interface. HTH (by being more clear), Stheg P.S. Another poster asked why do you think your NIC doesn't work. That is a good question. What output do you get from ifconfig -a ? __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
