cd stuck in cd drive after failed burn
Hello, After burning trying to burn a cd with too much information on it, it ended up with this error. only wrote -1 of 37632 bytes: Input/output error burncd: ioctl(CDRIOCFLUSH): Input/output error But the cd was stuck in the drive, and would not respond when I pressed the eject button. I was just wondering if this was a common error or just a bug that since been fixed. Also if this happens again, is there a way to force a cd eject without rebooting? I am running FreeBSD-5.2-RELEASE. Thanks for the help.

If you did it properly, yeah. You're trying to run 5.2 binaries on a 5.1 kernel, which will not work. At this point you can go back to the 5.2 kernel, or reinstall 5.1 from other media (CD, FTP, etc).

That's supposed to be the case and is usually the case. However, when left to its own devices, my Supermicro P6DBE board would always share an IRQ between a triple channel Mylex extremeRAID 1100 controller and one of the channels of a dual channel ZX348 ethernet card. When this happened, I would always see about 20% dropped packets on the ethernet channel sharing the IRQ. Manually overriding the IRQ assignment so that the RAID controller didn't share an IRQ with anything solved the problem. None-the-less, if there is no obvious evidence of odd behaviour, IRQ sharing is perfectly fine. However, if things are clearly not performing as they should, investigating potential IRQ sharing problems is not a bad idea. ...Sandy > Regards > S. > On Tue, 14 Sep 2004 18:56:18 -0600, Gary Aitken <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> On my 4.10 system, I added in a third ethernet device. >> >> However, I see from dmesg that the irq assigned is shared with my >> scsi controller: >> >> de1: port 0xf880-0xf8ff mem >> 0xfdfffc00-0xfdfffc7f irq 9 at device 16.0 on pci0 >> bt0: port 0xfcec-0xfcef >> irq 9 at device 17.0 on pci0 >> >> Since the driver was already present, things went ok, in the sense >> that the system booted and scsi devices still work. >> >> 1.

downgraded server from 5.2 to 5.1, everything dumps core now.
Hello, I was doing an upgrade to several servers, and one of them I accidentally cvsupped from RELENG_5_2 to RELENG_5_1, did a normal buildworld/kernel, install kernel/world, and lastly a reboot. When I realized that I had accidentally downgraded, I tried to upgrade, cvsup ran fine. But now buildworld, and tons of other commands [w,config,man,ifconfig,etc.etc.] dont' work, or just core dump on me with "Bad System Call". Question: Even though I downgraded, the system should function right? I ran through the normal steps of buildworld/kernel, then intall world/kernel, all of these ran fine and I had a final " && reboot". Upon reboot, httpd [apache], mysql, sendmail and tons of other apps are core dumping now. I can't rebuild world to 5.2, because, well the apps are core dumping on me. I do 'ls -l /boot/kernel' and 'ls -l /bin/any_app', the modification dates are within several minutes of each other, hence I'm sure that kernel, and world got built with same sources. Tomorrow I go to server room and do binary upgrade to 5.3 BETA 4, but overall this has been driving me nuts, as to why it won't work...

If you are using FreeBSD 5.x I believe you should have that pre-created in /etc. The difference that I noticed is that 4.x contains /etc/default/make.conf while 5.x doesn't have. But if it's not there you can create the file anyway. # touch /etc/make.conf You can force it to not mess up your bind config on "buildworld". Add this: NO_BIND= true If you are planning on controlling bind through rndc don't forget to run: "rndc-confgen -a" after you install bind9. to make bind9 load on boot add to /etc/rc.conf named_enable="YES" named_program="/usr/local/sbin/named" named_flags="depends on your environment check -u -t -c options in named(8)." regards, "UNIX, it's a way of life." __ Do you Yahoo!?

pcmcia flash card mounting / reading?

plugged in a flashcard reader w/card.

kernel contains
device ata
device card
device pcic0
rc.conf contains
pccard_enable="YES"
I see
pccard: card inserted, slot 1

ata1 at port 0x240-0x247,0x24e irq 10 slot 1 on pccard1
...pccardd[52]: ata1: SunDisk (/.*/) inserted.
So far, so good...
Now, I thought one should be able to read these as a file system.
If so, to what device does one mount? I tried the ata device,
but get the message "Block device required"; and there are no other
ata entries in /dev. Do I need to manually create these?
If not, what's the procedure for reading?

postfix chrooting.
Greetings, I have a FreeBSD 5.3-BETA3 #0 setup. Installed Bind9 and chrooted it. It's running perfectly. Now I'm trying to chroot postfix-2.1.4,1 MTA.

Coincidentally (or perhaps not so), around that time, I began getting quite a few records of such attempts to my server, at the rate of about 3 tries per IP, and about three IPs per night. Unfortunately, last night (Mon Sep 13), this attack was much more concentrated and persistent: someone from (or spoofing from) one IP (211.250.185.100) hammered my server with login attempts over a 20-minute period. The last report I got was a final, failed root password at 20:22:13 Eastern Time (GMT-5:00). I've been getting this for weeks. They're all under APNIC, and emails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] involved networks has gone unanswered. The easiest way to protect this is to check your sshd_config and set: PermitRootLogin no Which, if you're exposed to the 'Net would be a sane practice--force people to log in as themselves and su (or sudo or sudoscript) to root. Admittedly, I am not sure about the rest of your posting. When I run last, (on 4.10-STABLE) it shows logins back to the 1st of September.

increasing failed sshd logins/clearing breadcrumb trails

The last report I got was a final, failed root password at 20:22:13 Eastern Time (GMT-5:00). I just read this record and logged into my server, and ran "last", which gave me a blank record, saying only: wtmp begins Tue Sep 14 22:01:55 EDT 2004 ...which happened to be the exact time I just logged into my server. I'm wondering if it is a normal clean-up occurrance for the 'last' log to turn over at a certain time/date, or if this ssh-er finally got into my system and cleaned up his/her tracks? I realize the power of one who has root privelages, but what logs would they have wiped out to remain invisible, and what others might I have a possible chance of looking at to determine what happened? ___ Do you Yahoo!?

shared irqs and performance
On my 4.10 system, I added in a third ethernet device. However, I see from dmesg that the irq assigned is shared with my scsi controller: de1: port 0xf880-0xf8ff mem 0xfdfffc00-0xfdfffc7f irq 9 at device 16.0 on pci0 bt0: port 0xfcec-0xfcef irq 9 at device 17.0 on pci0 Since the driver was already present, things went ok, in the sense that the system booted and scsi devices still work. 1. Will this work reliably (I haven't actually hooked anything to the new network card yet)? 2. Even if it does work, I assume it would be better to force it to an unused irq for performance reasons?

DNS config problems
I don't think I have set up Bind9 correctly and I was hoping someone could point out any mistakes I may have made. I have tried to follow the examples in the handbook. I even bought DNS and BIND from O'riley. I don't really know how to troubleshoot a DNS issue yet. I know of the tools I just don't understand them yet. I have a MS DNS server running fine as my secondary and when I try to troubleshoot it I can't tell if I am getting a response from my MS system or my FBSD system. Ultimately I would like to make this bind system my primary. Once that is done I have made arrangements for an off site system to act as my secondary for redundancy and I can eliminate the MS system all together.

I just want to hide the hostname of the system when I can. I only have the one customer hitting the system and it is a real small company.

If you like fancy GUIs, ports/sysutils/k3b is great. ports/sysutils/xcdroast is also quite good, and it doesn't depend on KDE. Both programs need scsi drivers or the atapicam emulation layer.

Of course, it is a good idea to edit it when you don't intend to load the unloaded module on next boot. As for the crash on unload: I don't know for a solution except for not doing an unload. I have no need for it anyway, even when temporarily switching to the nv driver I leave the nvidia module untouched as it doesn't really hurt AFAIK. It's quite annoying on the portupgrade, to play it safe you could reboot without loading the module. Finally, keep in mind that the nvidia module might have a tendency to crash your machine anyway, see the "nvidia/BSD FAQ" at http://soulwax.net/nvidia/ for some useful hints and advice.

Environment ( On cvs server side): # uname -a FreeBSD host.domain.com 5.2.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE #0: Mon Feb 23 20:45:55 GMT 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] :/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 # cvsd -V cvsd 1.0.0 Written by Chris Black, Philippe Kehl and Arthur de Jong. ... # ps auxw | grep cvsd cvsd 541 0.0 0.0 1300 704 ??

The cvs remote user authentication is based on $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/passwd file located on cvs server. The format of the passwd file is john:tkdUrXsqy9r5A:cvsd Here john is virtual user to cvs server and his password is encrypted using crypt.pl script and cvsd is a user with cvsd group on the cvs server which is running cvsd process. So all the repositories are chowned to cvsd:cvsd with 775 permissions. I guess 755 may be needed only. The problem is that in the past, we used to validate the remote "cvs login" user against a local account on the cvs server and all accounts who are member of that group (for example cvsd) can do "cvs checkout" and "cvs commit" successfully. Prior to "cvs commit", we were calling a script/watchdog called "commitcheck" which was validating a "cvs login" user against a system's local account on the cvs server. Now since john is not a user account physically on the cvs server system in my current situation, I have problem validating him since the cvsd is actual who is writing to repositories. Yes, the logs are still have john in the headers indicating him initiate "cvs commint" to distinguish him from other cvs users. How do I validate this virtual user so that he can "cvs commit" successfully. When I stick "john" in the "commitcheck" script, he is being rejected since "cvsd" is a user who can write to repositories via cvsd process. Anyone has done such type of validation before. I am sure there is out one. I wish, I have a small email. Thank you! S.

I do frequently cvsup sources (just to observe changes), and then not compile, but I don't think this should be an issue, unless the nvidia driver compiles against sources in /usr/src.

Hello, I have the same problem and it seems that it is somewhat relevant
to stale files from system updates. @INCLUDE_des@ is returned by our
/usr/bin/krb5-config --cflags gssapi.
I had full extracted sources in /usr/src with /usr/src/kerberos{5,IV}, but
in supfile, I had src-kerberos5 and src-kerberosIV commented out, so I had
stale kerberos files in my source tree, which possibly generated bad
krb5-config and others.
Steven, you may try to cleanup /usr/src from stale directories and files
and remove stale files from /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin
and possibly from /usr/lib too and it seems that it helps in this problem
- I'm currently trying it...
Regards.

kern.ipc.maxpipekva exceeded, error
On a freshly rebuild v5.3-BETA4... A failed compile of sysutils/fastest_cvsup led me to run 'make clean' before trying again. It took over 5 minutes to run make clean, and at the very end I got the following: # make clean kern.ipc.maxpipekva exceeded; see tuning(7) Pipe call failed: Too many open files in system Pipe call failed: Too many open files in system ===> Cleaning for libtool-1.5.8 ===> Cleaning for perl-5.8.5 ===> Cleaning for fastest_cvsup-0.2.8 There is nothing specifically in tuning about this particular knob, but from poking around I get the feeling that it's about memory management of the kernel IPC subsystem.

help: booting 5.2.1 hangs on pcm
Hello list. I am trying to setup freebsd on a new hp pavilion with the following configuration. cpu: amd64 mem: 1Gb hd: 160 Gb gc: nVIDIA GeForce FX5200XT AGP 8X with 128Mb dvd: 1 nec dvd rw/cd rw cd: 1 cd 48x r sc: integrated sound card not sure on details of it but windows show it as ac97 monitor: sharp 17" lcd I have downloaded and burned 5.2.1 amd64-disc1.iso and disk2 also. But when trying to boot of cd, the boot process starts and after the listing of some devices gets hanged, the last line on the screen is, pcm: measured ac97 link rate at 16109 Hz The hard boot gets the computer start over again. I have tried 5.3 beta3 and no succes there eather. Any pointer to any document or links to help get past this point would be apritiated greatly. thanks esmaeel ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

This morning, I am installing on a fresh install (5.2.1), and actually never crossed my mind to install freeradius port first, and let it handle the mysql dependencies. I am trying that now...

Re: Which Distro?
I've been watching the PPC list for about a month now. One of the regulars has posted a bootable iso that will allow you to get an install of freebsd up on a G4/G3 mac. It does not work on G5s due to changes in the architecture. From what i've read, it appears that you can easily get into single user and mutliuser mode works aside from problems with specific apps and some terminal issues.

No. You don't need to completely delete and redownload the whole ports tree. And running 'portsdb -U' does exactly the same thing as running 'make index' -- no need to do it twice. And 'portsdb -u' will crash in exactly the same way as you've seen before. Just do this: # cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile # make index # setenv PORTS_DBDRIVER bdb1_hash # portsdb -u The 'portsdb -u' command is where the crash usually occurs. Once you've got past that stage, you're home and dry. Run portupgrade/portversion/pkgdb as usual. The bug is in the base system. A fix has been committed to 6-CURRENT: it should percolate down to 4-STABLE and 5-STABLE in the next few days.

Multiprocessing-mainboards.
Hello. I'd like to remind you of my small project[1] -- a list[1] of SMP-boards running FreeBSD (in real SMP-mode with two or more physical processors - sorted by CPU-socket/slot). Everyone is invited to add his known-working FreeBSD-SMP-board to this list, especially the older ones - they are very hard to find (and I don't want to buy them all on online-auctions - my room and money are limited ;) Only real MP boards will be listed, that is, only boards with two or more physical processors installed -- running a FreeBSD SMP kernel -- and which can be identified by a specific name or number. For example, the "Tyan Tiger i7505 S2668AN" and the "Tyan Tiger i7505 S2668ANR" are different boards and will be listed as different, each with an own entry). To add a mainboard, please submit (in addition to the exact brand and label) the output of the dmesg(8) and mptable(1) commands, and optionally the "pciconf -l -v" output as well. The BIOS revision would be nice, too. Please take care to remove the host and/or domain name from the dmesg(8) output (only if you don't want it should be public). Any known caveats or remarks that may be helpful to other users are also most welcome! Currently 151 SMP-boards are listed, and my local list contains 633 different boards at the moment (including the 151 on the website). Some words about my person: I started my first FreeBSD-Installation in July 1999 (I ordered a CD-Set from a German Distributor), and since this time I am infected with the FreeBSD-Virus ;) And not to forget: I would like to say "Thank you" - for my favourite Operating System and for reading this mail. best regards, -Gregor. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [1]= http://www.bnv-bamberg.de/home/ba3294/smp/index.htm ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I don't think there's a way to do what the OP wanted 100% of the time, at least not with ps(1): $ ps auxww | grep -v grep | egrep -e 'xinit|screen' root 604 0.0 0.7 3336 3004 ??

So what distro of > FreeBSD would I use for a mac computer? As mentioned, there is no such thing as FreeBSD distributions. Also FreeBSD is not ready (yet) for the Mac. If you want to run a BSD on your Mac (other than Darwin/OSX), you may want to try NetBSD or OpenBSD. They have ppc ports, and I have ran them both on an iMac.

If you insist on running pure-strain UNIX try NetBSD. 2) Many programs which run on FreeBSD have a version for OS X.
