mpd as VPN-client in FreeBSD

2004-11-04 Thread baguio_sun
Hi!
I'm using mpd (as client)to connect to VPN-server. When I don't use mpd, my
default route is 192.168.1.1. Then when i'm connected to the VPN-server, i
have a new iface ng0 with ip 212.192.123.86. But default route is still
192.168.1.1! And I have to '# route change default 212.192.123.193'
manually .
The question : is there a line in mpd config files, that sets the new route
automatically (after sucsessfull connection)?
I've read the f*g manuals(both man and html files), but didn't find
anything useful for me.
Please help me !
Thanks for your time.

Try something like this :
 cut here -
#!/bin/sh

connection=0
ping -c 5 -t 6 some.host.on.the.internet && connection=1

if [ "${connection}" = "1" ]; then
# This will be executed if we can ping the host
echo "We have internet. :)"
else
# This will be executed if we can't ping the host (no connection)
echo "Oh no!! Someone please help me."
echo "We're not connected!!"
fi
 end of script ---

The "ping" command tries to ping some host on the internet 5 times and waits 
for a maximum of 6 seconds for a reply. If ping gets a reply, the variable 
"connection" will be set to 1.
The "if" statement checks the "connection" variable and executes whatever you 
want to do then.

grtz,
Daan

Is UDP header compression (RFC 2508) supported in FreeBSD

2004-11-04 Thread Jan Knoppers
 

Hi,

   Does anybody know whether RFC 2508 (Compressing IP/UDP/RTP Headers for
Low-Speed Serial Links) is supported in FreeBSD? 

 

An elaborate search in the FreeBSD archives and the internet did not result
in any useful hints.

 

Support of this RFC is notably relevant in VoIP applications.

 

Any help will very much be appreciated.

PPP not loading at startup. Please help!

2004-11-04 Thread Andrew P.
Hi!
PPP does not start at system startup although ppp_enable="YES" is in 
/etc/rc.conf. It used to start allright just a couple of days before - 
and for months on end before. The problem is I did many things during 
these two days, and I just can't remember everything in particular. I 
slightly reconfigured kernel, installed isc-dhcp3-server, tried to run 
samba, edited rc.conf and some other config files - but I'm positive 
that I haven't done anything that should affect ppp behaviour directly. 
I haven't changed /etc/ppp/ppp.conf - and it's pretty basic.

Here's the relevant part of rc.conf:
   ppp_enable="YES"
   ppp_mode="ddial"
   ppp_profile="mtu"
   ppp_user="root"
   ppp_nat="YES"
All other entries in rc.conf are still effective and everything starts 
ok - except ppp. I can easily start ppp manually. There's nothing in 
ppp.log dated between system startup and manual ppp start. The only 
error in dmesg is:
   module_register: module netgraph already exists!
   linker_file_sysinit "netgraph.ko" failed to register! 17
but google has told me that this is not critical. My kernel config is as 
follows:

Look at the Authors of that RFC.

Compare it with this statement in ppp(8):

 vjcomp
 Default: Enabled and Accepted.  This option determines if Van
 Jacobson header compression will be used.

Looks to me as if the answer is "Yes".

Cheers,

First of all, I get the syntax.  However, I do _not_ 
understand the apparent dependence between the first and 
the second binary (if you don't know what I'm referring to, 
then please read the rest of my last email).

Actually, no.  If I were to put 'blackbox && bbkeys' in the 
script, then blackbox would appear, and then _after_ I exit 
blackbox bbkeys shows up on the KDM "root" background.  
Then when I close bbkeys, the KDM login window is restored.  
Vice-versa the other way around.  Obviously, this is not 
what I'm after.

I've found the solution (as indicated in my last email), but 
again, I don't understand the dependency that the second 
binary seems to have on the first (ie. close the second and 
the first disappears, but _not_ vice-versa).  I haven't 
found the dependency documented anywhere, and therefore I 
don't understand _why_ it's the solution.

You're probably right.  This is more a NIX question in 
general rather than a FreeBSD-specific question.  I'll post 
it to another board.  Thanks.

My understanding is that this vjcomp statement relates to TCP/IP header
compression only as described in RFC 1144 (Jacobson, V., "TCP/IP Compression
for Low-Speed Serial Links", February 1990). This RFC explicitly excludes
UDP/IP header compression. RFC 2508 is intended to fill this gap.

So, you may very well be right, and I hope you do, but I do not see it
documented.

Ping may be a bit unreliable at times.  If you know the interface name
you can probably get away by using ifconfig to short-cut through the
checks.

flags=$(ifconfig sis0 | grep '^sis0:' | \
sed -e 's/.*.*//' )
case $flags in
*UP*)
# interface is up, keep going
;;
*)
echo "sis0 interface is down."
exit 1
;;
esac

Replace sis0 with tun0 and you have something that works just fine for
dialup PPP connections ;-)

Just my USD $0.02.

Problème d'installation de Freetype pour php4

2004-11-04 Thread Cyril Blaison
Bonjour à tous,
Je suis en train de migrer un serveur web de Debian vers FreeBSD 
(version 5.2.1) et a priori la version de php4 fournie n'est pas 
compilée avec le support de GD.
Je me lance donc dans la compilation de php pour l'ajouter et là c'est 
le drame...
J'ai bien récupérer toutes les sources nécessaires (zlib,freetype,libpng 
et gd) et tout c'est bien passé jusqu'à la compilation de Freetype. Il a 
fallu que j'installe makepp (sans probleme) puis j'ai modifié le fichier 
"configure" pour l'utiliser comme compilateur.

La dessus un petit ./configure qui me donne:

Loading makefile /usr/src/freetype-2.1.9/Makefile

`config.mk' from this directory then read the INSTALL file for help.

Otherwise, simply type `/usr/local/bin/perl 
/usr/local/share/makepp/recursive_makepp ' again to build the library,
or `/usr/local/bin/perl /usr/local/share/makepp/recursive_makepp

Thanks dude I got my volume back !

Just to know, your patch was the old code removed ?
Will you merge it ?

smbfs and kldload

2004-11-04 Thread Gregory Nou
Hi,

here is my (kind of) problem.
At school, we are forced to backup our docs (e.g. java code and tex
reports) on a windows server.
So I always did it with smbclient.
But now, I would love to do it with mount_smbfs, since I think it would
be easier (read more pratical)
But I compiled it statically (as I'm not sure it's the proper way to
express it : it's not a module, it's in my kernel)
Then, this happens :

# mount_smbfs //[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s.server.samba/my_account /mnt/disque_u
mount_smbfs: kldload(smbfs): File exists
zsh: exit 71mount_smbfs //[EMAIL PROTECTED]'s.server.samba/my_account

I looked at the man and at google, and did find people experiencing the
same pb with vfsload instead of kldload, but no fix.
So my question is : do I need to recompile a kernel w/o smbfs and then
load it as a module, or is there another solution ?

thx for reading this

Maybe try with -O instead. Optimizations of -O2 and higher are not supported, 
and -O3 is known to fail. Also, are you running make -j4 buildworld? If so, 
try it without multiple processes (i.e., without the -j option).

Re: Problème d'installation de Freetype pour php4

2004-11-04 Thread Soenke Mueller
Hello Cyril,
as I think that there are many people out there able to help you solving 
your problem, but not speaking French, I added my (surely not perfect) 
translation to your message:

Bonjour à tous,
Je suis en train de migrer un serveur web de Debian vers FreeBSD 
(version 5.2.1) et a priori la version de php4 fournie n'est pas 
compilée avec le support de GD.
Je me lance donc dans la compilation de php pour l'ajouter et là c'est 
le drame...
J'ai bien récupérer toutes les sources nécessaires (zlib,freetype,libpng 
et gd) et tout c'est bien passé jusqu'à la compilation de Freetype. Il a 
fallu que j'installe makepp (sans probleme) puis j'ai modifié le fichier 
"configure" pour l'utiliser comme compilateur.
Hello everyone,
I am about to migrate a web server from debian to FreeBSD (version 
5.2.1) and per default the shipped version of php4 is not compiled with 
GD support.
Therefore I engaged in compiling php in order to add the feature. And 
that's where the trouble starts.
I fetched all needed sources (zlib, freetype, libpng and gd) and all 
went well until the compilation of Freetype. I needed to install makepp 
(without any problem). Then I edited the "configure" file in order to 
use it as a compiler. [Est-ce que j'ai bien compris ce que tu voulais 
dire, Cyril?]

  It can be done using ipfw, if you want to use only IPv4.
An example is shown below. (Although it is not round robin
connections.)

# route add default GW1
# ipfw add prob 0.5 fwd GW2 ip from any to any out
# ipfw add allow ip from any to any

You don't need to fiddle with all that downloading of sources, patching 
and stuff in FreeBSD. Take a look at the ports-system, which does all that 
for you. After you've had a look at the ports(7) manpage, you probably 
would like to install the sysutils/portupgrade port. Then, all you need to 
do is:

portinstall lang/php4
portinstall lang/php4-extensions

The latter will let you choose which extensions to install. I did this for 
php5, but I guess the process of installing php4 would be quite similar.

Hi,

Seen this once before and in my case it was a faulty hard drive cable.
Check to see whether your cable is not loose or incorrectly inserted
and perhaps try a new one. It may also be caused by an incorrect DMA
setting if memory serves me correct.

Good point.  Looking at /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp/vjcomp.c it does appear
to only affect the headers.  Probably your best bet would be to ask
the last committer to work on that code directly -- see the
README.changes file in that directory.

That's the usermode PPP implementation, but the alternative kernel
mode pppd(8) doesn't appear to have had much work done on it for some
time.  That's just VJ header compression too.

Cheers,

Matthew

No.  The stuff that gets stored in /var/db/pkg is *part* of what's
required to make a package -- given that, and an installed port you can use

# pkg_create -b pkg-name

to generate a complete package.  The contents of /var/db/pkg serve to
document all of the files belonging to the package, their checksums,
various scripts used to install or deinstall the package, what the
package depends on, etc.

No -- you shouldn't output anything to /var/db/pkg, except for what
pkg_add(1) etc. produce automatically.  Packages you create for later
installation elsewhere can be profitably saved under
/usr/ports/packages which lets other package management tools find
them automatically.

The port seems to be able to do that for you.

Also note that there's a whole article in the FreeBSD documentation

traceroute: sendto: Permission denied (4.10-RELEASE)

2004-11-04 Thread Kenneth W Cochran
Hello -questions:

Lately (since a few days ago) I've been getting an oddity from
traceroute, for example:

traceroute to www.freebsd.org (216.136.204.117), 64 hops max, 44 byte packets
traceroute: sendto: Permission denied
 1 traceroute: wrote www.freebsd.org 44 chars, ret=-1
 *traceroute: sendto: Permission denied
traceroute: wrote www.freebsd.org 44 chars, ret=-1
 * 10.108.0.1 (10.108.0.1)  7.212 ms

[other hops that look just fine]

13  www.freebsd.org (216.136.204.117)  94.209 ms  87.449 ms  89.103 ms


OS is 4.10-RELEASE, built from source acquired via cvsup.
I get that "Permission denied" at the beginning regardless of
where I might try tracing "outside" (external interface - dc0)
e.g. it works just fine to my local net (local interface - dc1).
Up until a few days ago, traceroute "worked fine" and never (as
far as I recall) reported such a message.

Btw, that 10.108.0.1 hop has been there for ages, and while I
think it's "unusual" it has been there for ages & hasn't
previously affected traces.

The difference between previous & now is that "traceroute:
sendto: Permission denied" message

What does that mean?  What is traceroute trying to do?
I tried the "tracert" from a local (NATed) Win2k machine & that
seems to work as it always has.  {shrug}

Any idea(s) what's (not) happening?
Is my upstream connection blocking something (again)?
Is there some kind of workaround/fix (perhaps my firewall config)?

Thanks,

AFAIK, gdb is the standard tool for debugging and I am using it.
I heard that gprof is good for profiling where we can find which
functions have been called. Any other related tools recommendations?
Thanks.

Re: Using extra patches with the ports collection and qmail-mysql - Found Solution

2004-11-04 Thread CHris Rich
For anyone else wondering here is how the problem was solved. put the
patch (name doesn't matter it just does them in alphabetical order
into the /work/qmail-1.03 directory.
Did a make patch, which resulted in an error but after editing the
Makefile the compile worked fine.

Thanks everyone for suggestions

Gert,

Are you trying to create a package you can reinstall or move to 
another system?

If this is the case, there are several ways it can be done. Two that 
I use are:
 make package
or
 make
 make install
 make package
or
 make install
 make package
or 
 make && make install && make package

It can also be done from portupgrade. If you want to make a package 
while upgradeing a port:
 portupgrade -p  "portname"

I would also like to add, some ports are marked as not building a 
package, for licensing reasons and other reasons.

If you have /usr/ports/packages, packages will be put there, 
otherwise they'll get put in the port. 

Don

RE: Is UDP header compression (RFC 2508) supported in FreeBSD

2004-11-04 Thread Jan Knoppers

My point is not so much that only headers compression is affected, but that
only TCP headers are affected. What I need is UPD (actually IP/UDP/RTP)
header compression. 

The file you mention also seems to deal with TCP/IP header compression only.

OT: printing over the internet

2004-11-04 Thread Andrew L. Gould
Searching the internet, I found that lpd uses port 515 and Internet 
Printing uses port 631.

Do I have to install anything special to enable Internet Printing?  I 
currently use apsfilter to configure my Okidata B4350 (with postscript 
upgrade).

Is port 515 for local printing only?  If I have my router forward port 
515 and add a '+' to /etc/hosts.lpd, should print serving work over the 
internet without the Internet Printing protocol?

Thanks,

Andrew Gould

Re: external hard drive

2004-11-04 Thread Lloyd Hayes
I re-installed the system last night. Weather was bad and I decided to 
close work down early.
I got to thinking about it, and simply did a search for "da*" in the 
device directory. It came up with "da0" and "da0s1". "da0" produces 
errors. "da0s1" loaded my Buslink external HD fine. Problem solved for 
that drive.

The small drive enclosure is a different matter The computer lights 
the power light up on the case, and causes the drive to make that 
ticking noise. But if I do a hotplug, I don't get any notices the way 
that I do with the Buslink HD. I'm beginning to think that I may have 
been mistaken about FreeBSD seeing this drive last spring. It doesn't 
appear to see it now. Or, else it sees it as something different.

Hi,
Seen this once before and in my case it was a faulty hard drive cable.
Check to see whether your cable is not loose or incorrectly inserted
and perhaps try a new one.
Thank you - I will check that.
It may also be caused by an incorrect DMA setting if memory serves me

I might try turning DMA off to see if that helps...

Btw, that 10.108.0.1 hop has been there for ages, and while I
think it's "unusual" it has been there for ages & hasn't
previously affected traces.
The difference between previous & now is that "traceroute:

What does that mean?  What is traceroute trying to do?
I tried the "tracert" from a local (NATed) Win2k machine & that

Any idea(s) what's (not) happening?
Is my upstream connection blocking something (again)?
Is there some kind of workaround/fix (perhaps my firewall config)?

In my limited experience, this is almost certainly a misconfiguration
of the firewall ... (assuming, of course, that you wish the firewall to
permit the use of traceroute)

Naming confusion

2004-11-04 Thread Lloyd Hayes
Here's a new thread.
Naming the computer host?
I'm confused by this. As I understand it, I get a different DNS 
assignment every time that I hook into the Internet from a different 
location. Yet FBSD seems to want a permanent assignment which I would 
normally get from my ISP. I don't have a permanent ISP. I mainly use 2 
services at locations all across the USA. Normally I simply assign a 
name to the computer, but it appears that FBSD wants a complete Internet 
address.

This appears to me to be a conflict. I think that I read in "The 
Complete FreeBSD, 4th Edition" where there are some addresses to use if 
the computer will never be hooked into the Internet. But that is not the 
case here.

Any ideas or help here?

Check out DHCP.   Once you have read up on that, see if you

It looks like net/p5-perl-ldap is what you want; at least the manpages
it installs say Net::LDAP in them.  The COMMENT line for that port
probably have Net::LDAP in it so "make search" can find it.

The convention is that a perl module Foo::Bar when turned into a port,
is called p5-Foo-Bar.  This applies to the vast majority of perl
module ports: however there are some, largely historical exceptions
(and those usually don't obey the standard module naming conventions
on CPAN either).  Examples of exceptions are: www/p5-libwww,
biology/p5-bioperl, p5-Nysql-modules and various other p5-lib
ports.

On the specific question of Net::LDAP, the port you want is one of the
exceptions: net/p5-perl-ldap.  I found that but doing:

% make search name=ldap

which turned up a couple of likely suspects.  A quick check of the
pkg-plist confirmed that it was the right module:

% less /usr/ports/net/p5-perl-ldap/pkg-plist

Looking at the pkg-plist and pkg-descr file is usually enough to tell
you what you need to know when looking for the appropriate port.

Cheers,

Matthew

sane-plustek backend does not work

2004-11-04 Thread Eugene M. Minkovskii
Hello!

I using FreeBSD 5.2.1 and try to use scanner: "Cannon LIDE 30".
it is USB scanner.

so, I compile kernel with
# USB support
device  uhci# UHCI PCI->USB interface
device  ohci# OHCI PCI->USB interface
device  usb # USB Bus (required)
device  ugen# Generic
device  uhid# "Human Interface Devices"
device  ukbd# Keyboard
device  ulpt# Printer
device  umass   # Disks/Mass storage - Requires
scbus and da
device  ums # Mouse
device  uscanner# Scanners

after that I compile sane-backend port

Now, when I attach the scanner I can see:

# dmesg|tail
ugen0: Canon CanoScan, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2
==> success, thinking I.

# sane-find-scanner -q
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0x220e) at libusb:/dev/usb2:/dev/ugen0
==> success, thinking I.
==> moreover, in man sane-plustek we can read thet Canon has
==> vendor code 0x04a9, and LIDE 30 has product id 0x220e. Right!

# vim /usr/local/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf
==> In this file I comment all and write:
==> [usb] 0x04a9 0x220e
==> devices /dev/ugen0

# scanimage -L

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
==> Oops!

All of my efforts to edit /usr/local/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf,
does not lead success.

I always make a grub boot disk, then install onto the hard drive from

But if you have only one OS, there's no need for grub at all..

kernel: Limiting open port RST

2004-11-04 Thread Nathan Kinkade
I am getting a tremendous amount of messages on a particular server
saying something close to:

kernel: Limiting open port RST response from 302 to 200 packets/sec

I understand the reasons for the message, but I'm having a hard time
tracking down a possible point source.  Neither ethereal nor tcpdump
seem to be picking up any packets with the TCP RST bit set.  I have
tried this, for example:

# tcpdump 'tcp[tcpflags] & tcp-rst = 1'

... but get nothing.  I have also tried adding a logging rule to ipfw,
such as:

# ipfw add allow log tcp from me to any tcpflags rst

However, the logged results don't appear to be correct.  Log messages do
show up in /var/log/security, but at the rate of about 1 message every 4
or 5 seconds, which doesn't seem consistent with a rate limit of 200
packets/sec being implemented.

Basically, I'm wanting to find out if the machine(s) causing this are
coming from the internal network, or outside.  And if coming from
inside, which machine is flooding the server with bogus SYN requests to
non-listening ports.  TCP and UDP blackhole sysctls are also already
setup, and it appears that the RST packets are being sent out to
internet hosts with a dstport of 80.  The machine being affected is
running squid.

Does anyone have advice on this?  

Thanks,
Nathan

See the FreeBSD GNOME FAQ at http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html. 
There is a question specifically geared to upgrading from GNOME Lite to 
the full GNOME Desktop.

And, if possible , is there a way to intall "package by package" ?
Yes.  The same FAQ talks about installing GNOME from packages from our 
Tinderbox.

I thought in download it , save into a 
CD and install. I'm having problems with my network (DHCP) but, slowly I'm 
better understanding this "new system", for me and, in the near future, I 
hope that all it OK. Also, I would like to talk with another people that

Thank you, for help me. Sincerely, Newton - Brazil
GNOME and GNOME Lite certainly support Brazilian Portuguese.  Simply set 
your LANG environment variable to pt_BR.ISO8859-1, and start GNOME, and 
every app that has a Brazilian Portuguese translation will display it.

I don't use KDE, but as I recall KDE is a bit different.  You have to 
install the language bindings for your locale.  Just install 
portuguese/kde3-i18n-pt_BR, and you should be set there (provided your 
LANG is correctly defined as mentioned above).

Here's my setup for the LIDE 30:

/usr/local/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf:
---

# Plustek-SANE Backend configuration file

BEWARE: This file WILL be overridden if you reinstall or update sane-backends.
Make a backup copy before doing that.

The next step is to set the mode for /dev/uscanner0 correctly:

/etc/devfs.conf:


# ... among others set:
permuscanner0   0666

=

Then restart devfs after you plug in the LIDE 30:

# /etc/rc.d/devfs stop
# /etc/rc.d/devfs start

That should be it.

Are you sure its Net::LDAP? There is a ports/net/p5-perl-ldap port that 
looks promising.

"perl -MCPAN -e shell"

Not quite.  There's a lot of compilation and stuff that has to happen
first, and the contents of /var/db/pkg are derived from the pkg-plist
file and several other sources from when the port was compiled and
installed.  The pkg-plist file, or the dynamic methods of generating
it used in some ports provides the basis for the +CONTENTS file under
/var/db/pkg/${PKGNAME}.

Cheers,

Matthew

with no modules.

cat /etc/make.conf

NFS is stateless so there's no need for the server to keep track of who
has mounted a volume.  The "showmount" command will print a list of
machines the server thinks is accessing it, but the list may not be
complete.

That's what you had asked for.  Using '&' after a
command, a shell executes the command in the background. 
Lack of '&' causes the command to be executed in the
foreground.  Try these two commands in a bourne-like
shell (such as ash (FreeBSD sh), ksh93, bash2, bash3) ...

sleep 15 && date &
sleep 15 && date

First of all, I get the syntax.  However, I do _not_ 
understand the apparent dependence between the first and 
the second binary (if you don't know what I'm referring to, 
then please read the rest of my last email).


In your situation, blackbox runs in the background &
bbkeys in foreground.  If you wanted to run bbkeys only
if blackbox runs, then do AND operation ...
 blackbox && bbkeys

Actually, no.  If I were to put 'blackbox && bbkeys' in the 
script, then blackbox would appear, and then _after_ I exit 
blackbox bbkeys shows up on the KDM "root" background.  
Then when I close bbkeys, the KDM login window is restored.  
Vice-versa the other way around.  Obviously, this is not 
what I'm after.

I've found the solution (as indicated in my last email), but 
again, I don't understand the dependency that the second 
binary seems to have on the first (ie. close the second and 
the first disappears, but _not_ vice-versa).  I haven't 
found the dependency documented anywhere, and therefore I 
don't understand _why_ it's the solution.

Greetings!
Consider this: you start a shell script that in turn runs the two 
commands, right? If you do

blackbox & bbkeys
this puts blackbox in the background and runs bbkeys in the foreground. 
Now, if you close blackbox, bbkeys is still running, and thus the 
shellscript will also keep running (seeing as how the script is the 
parent process of bbkeys).

On the other hand, if you do
bbkeys & blackbox
this will send bbkeys into the background and keep blackbox in the 
foreground. Now, when you exit blackbox, the shellscript will have 
reached the end of its execution (seeing as how all the children for 
which it has been told to wait have terminated) and will terminate. 
Being a child process of the script, bbkeys will also terminate as a 
result of this.

I don't know if it's easier to see if I write it out as
blacbox&
bbkeys
vs.
bbkeys&
blackbox

Greetings friends,
I wonder if someone would be kind enough to enlighten me about the

do what it is documented as doing.  (I am testing it on 4.10-RELEASE,
by the way.)
The short test program attached below illustrates the source of my
abundant confusion.  When I compile this program with -DUSE_FCNTL
(thus forcing it to use fcntl(2) to implement exclusive file locking)
and then execute it, the resulting behavior is exactly what I expect,
i.e. the program prints the string "Temp file locked (1)", and then it
pauses for 10 seconds, and then it prints "Temp file locked (2)".  The
delay time between the appearance of the two message indicates clearly
that exclusive file locking is working as expected.
When I compile this program WITHOUT the -DUSE_FCNTL option however
(thus forcing the program to use flock() rather then fcntl() for file
locking), there is no apparent delay between the printing of the first
message and the printing of the second message.
That is what has me mystified.
Obviously, there is something (or maybe several things) about the actual
semantics of flock(2) that I don't understand.  I would appreciate it if
someone would enlighten me about that.

From the flock manpage:
"...file descriptors duplicated through dup(2) or fork(2) do not result 
in multiple instances of a lock, but rather multiple references to the 
same lock."

You're basically trying to place a lock you already hold, making the 
flock function return immediately (this is what I gather, anyhow). The 
fcntl function seems to operate slightly differently in this respect.

This is the only explanation I can think of, others might think 
differently, though.

Hi,

I have a dell poweredge server with a Remote Access Card installed. I
successfully installed FreeBSD 4.10 on this system and it works great.
Unfortunately the RAC card does not accept input from a remote keyboard
when there is not a local keyboard installed. I beleive this is because
the kernel does not detect the keyboard and disables it and then switches
the console to the serial device. My question is how do I force the
keyboard to always be enabled? I am not positive where I would do this
and what the flag would be. Perhaps atkdb=0x01 ???

Thank You very much

This is what I have suspected, and it doesn't bother me too much except
for the fact that it has been happening since yesterday, which should
rule out any simple portscan by a single host.  Also, normal TCP-connect
scans should never be able to get to the server through the firewall,
except from inside our network, but the RST packets *seem* to be going
to random Internet hosts.

Yes, the blackhole sysctls are, and have been, on, which is part of the
reason that I am baffled about the syslog messages.
 
> >Does anyone have advice on this?

This machine is behind an ipfw firewall, and there is not a single rule
that allow in-bound connections to this server.  However, the firewall
does allow all established connections through.

Since this machine is running natd and squid it also has ipfw active.
So when I add this rule:

# ipfw add 350 allow log tcp from me to any tcpflags rst

I get messages like the following in /var/log/security at the rate of
about 1 every 4 or 5 seconds:

kernel: ipfw: 350 Accept TCP :53505 65.216.123.144:80 out via xl0
kernel: ipfw: 350 Accept TCP :59624 66.244.221.7:80 out via xl0
kernel: ipfw: 350 Accept TCP :58126 219.129.216.116:80 out via xl0
kernel: ipfw: 350 Accept TCP :55069 207.68.167.254:80 out via xl0
kernel: ipfw: 350 Accept TCP :59656 65.77.211.156:80 out via xl0

I'm not sure I understand why the RST packets are begin sent to
seemingly random Internet hosts, all to a dstport 80.  So this just adds
to the mystery of how any host is getting a SYN packet through to this
machine through the firewall, and further why the blackhole sysctls are
not causing the packets to be silently dropped.

Has anyone seen something like this?  This machine is running
5.2.1-RELEASE-p9.

That's just about right.  The trick is that if you use a file-backed
vn(4) device to build your UFS disk image, the backing file *is* the
image that you want to burn to cdrom.  [It's not an ISO file -- by
definition, "ISO" files are ISO9660 format.]

I was meaning to try it to give an exact recipe, but I haven't gotten
around to it yet.

FreeBSD 5.3 RC2 disk 1 ISO torrent available

2004-11-04 Thread Bob Johnson
This is more of an announcement than a question, but:
In the past, I've noticed questions from people looking for ISO image 
file torrents for FreeBSD.  To see if there really is a demand for this, 
I've set one up (only for FreeBSD 5.3RC2 i386 disk 1).  You can download 
the torrent file from http://www.eng.ufl.edu/bobj/FreeBSD-5_3_RC2.torrent

I'm using bnbt for the tracker and seeding it with ctorrent.  For some 
reason it seems reluctant to seed to other copies of ctorrent, but works 
fine with other clients (e.g. qtorrent).  When possible, I'll keep 
another seed up with a different client to try to make sure a usable 
seed is always up.

I'll also try to upload a copy to http://www.suprnova.org to get it more 
exposure.

I used the following article to get traceroute working on my FreeBSD box

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2001/06/01/FreeBSD_Basics.html
Also, because I was blocking outbound UDP, I had to enable a range of UDP

and away from my notes at the moment so I can't give you the specifics, sorry.

X does not work when I launch with startx, I get a "no signal" error from my lcd 
screen. I have manually kill the server with "ctrl alt backspace". After killing the 
server, the following error appears:
--
(==) Log file: "/var/log/Xorg.0.log", Time: Fri Nov  5 00:26:58 2004
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
(EE) MGA: Failed to load module "mga_hal" (module does not exist, 0)
xterm:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server ":0.0"
login:  fatal IO error 32 (Broken pipe) or KillClient on X server ":0.0"
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
--


If I don't kill the server after a few seconds, I can't kill it anymore. I can't swith 
back to a console, as all my screens stay black.

I checked the x11 driver direcotry and indeed there is no mga_hal.o in 
/usr/X11/lib/modules/drivers/

I googled a bit around and found that I may be I need to copy the original matrox 
linux drivers (mga_hal.o) to the directory (mentionned above). But it still doesn't 
work, now I get the following error:

-
(EE) MGA(0): MGAValidateMode from HALlib found the mode to be invalid.
Error: 0xb1901112
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

Fatal server error:
no screens found
-

Is someone running the g550? perhaps also in dual mode? If so, could you please send 
me your xorg.conf file?

If you need more info, please tell me.

Thx a lot
Didier

Okay. I can understand where I was getting confused.

I couldn't figure out why it seemed to work one way but not 
the other (just seemed weird).  I now see the error of my 
own processes, and will return myself to the 
background.  :)

Thanks (Parv, Henry, and Henrik) for clearing this up.

matrox, vesa and disapointing resolutions with vidcontrol, why?

2004-11-04 Thread Didier Wiroth
I'm using a matrox g550 (agp with 64mb).
i'm loading the vesa module at startup via loader.conf.

I get very poor resolution in consoles with vidcontrol. 

I didn't compile the vga_width90 as I didn't want these resolutions.

With module vesa loaded the only modes I'm able to set are:

1) While googling I found users getting 132x60 for example, is that possible with a 
matrox card?

2) Which card for example support a 132x60 resolution?

3) Could you recommand me a dual-headed card (supported by xorg and freebsd) that also 
support console resolutions of 132x60?

MBONE Tunnel

2004-11-04 Thread Loren M. Lang
I've recently become intrested in connecting to MBONE.  I already have
all the various video conferencing tools setup including mrouted on my
router.  I was able to do a local LAN conference, but now I'd like to
try and connect to the real network.  It appears that neither ISP that I
use has MBONE available and I'll need to find a network to create a
tunnel with.  Where could I find a list of sites that I could connect
to?  Also, what exactly do I need to have open on my firewall for MBONE?
A side question is how does a firewall affect sniffing programs like
tcpdump?

I've spent some time searching for information on mbone tunnels and
schedule information and it looks like most pages aren't updated any
newer than 1999, is mbone already dead?

a little trouble with 5.2.1

2004-11-04 Thread eodyna
hi there,
 
Work Recently purchased a dell optiplex gx280. They come with a Broadcom NetXtreme 
57xx Gigabit Controller and a 40g WD sata drive. When i installed 5.2.1 it complained 
that the disk geometey was incorrect(77504/16/63). I tried changing it to the correct 
(4863/255/63)setting by pressing (G) at the fdisk configuration screen, and the value 
4863/255/63 was already entered in the pop up box. i saved it, and proceed with the 
rest of the install. At the network screen, it wasn't able to detect the network card. 
I was able to find that some people were able to get a 57xx working on their freebsd 
machine. 
There are a few other areas with "no driver attached" such as disply and audio, but i 
haven't looked into those of yet. 
After the installation completed i ran dmesg and the disk geometry didn't change to 
the new settings. Did i do something wrong with that?
 
Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to get this sorted? Any 
reccomendations would be great.
 
my thanks

I just bought a GX280, and installed 5.3-RC on it.  It works great once
you get passed the USB keyboard problem (see posts on freebsd-current@).

Problem w/ not actually testing a connection is that there may be an
address assigned to the interface (and it would be up) but lacking
a meaningful connection, say, courtesy of firewall/dhcp running
order/configuration.  Well that was my problem w/ ipf & dhcp
involving a NIC anyway.

Wireless internet

2004-11-04 Thread Blain Gatterdam
Hello,

 

I would like to set up my gnome FreeBSD (v 5.2.1) to connect
wirelessly to my home network. I have a linksys 802.11b wireless router/
switch, how can I set up my computer to work wirelessly? I can't "hard
wire", wireless is the only thing I have left. I've already learned from a
FreeBSD dude that USB adaptors won't work. Right now I'm looking at a
wireless B 802.11 linksys PCI adaptor. I also learned that I can make use of
"project evil" to use windows XP drivers. Is this "project evil already on
my system? Or do I have to download it, because if I have to install it.
yea. I'm an annoying newbie to the Linux background, im slowly learning
though. I was told if I left a message here, I might get some help. I don't
know if this matters or not, but this computer will run as a 24/7 web
server. Security isn't that big of a deal, I hear that's the big bummer with
wireless. But with the web server part, I know where to find help for that.
I cant even get it connected when I hook the computer up down by the router
"hard-wire". Any help would be nice, please send it to my email (
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ). Thanks to the dudes that I seem to be
bugging with my annoying questions, your help is greatly appreciated!

 

 
Thanks,

Linksys wmp11v4, NDISulator and FreeBSD 5.2.1 -current (6.0)

2004-11-04 Thread Dexter Santucci
Hi there,

  I'm emailing you because I've tried everything else... and failed :)
I've got a bsd box on 5.2.1 freshly updated to -current:
FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 6.0-CURRENT #0: .../usr/src/sys/i386/compile/CUSTOM  i386
Custom kernel with just what I need in it.
I have a linksys wmp11v4 wireless card. I compiled the NDISulator (/sys/modules/ndis 
and /sys/modules/if_ndis) successfully.
Both modules load fine (no panic, no make-time error except the object warning). I 
used the sys and inf from the card's CD: LSIPNDS.sys and LSIPNDS.inf.
However, the ndis0 interface does not appear. Rebooting, unloading / reloading both 
modules did not help.

dmesg.boot shows the following unknown card:
pci1:  at device 7.0 (no driver attached)

pciconf shows it as well:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:7:0: class=0x02 card=0x00201737 chip=0x212017fe rev=0x00 hdr=0x00
vendor   = 'InProComm Inc'
class= network
subclass = ethernet

It is indeed the v4 linksys using the InProComm chip.
I've verified the pci device IDs in the inf, and they seem to match the pciconf's 
description: 

Linksys.DeviceDesc% = IPN2120.ndi, PCI\VEN_17FE&DEV_2120&SUBSYS_00201737

I've tried ndiscvt'ing with bcmwl5.sys and lsbcmnds.inf from the CD root without 
success.
I have tried compiling a GENERIC kernel, with same results.

I have tried three different cards on both 4.9 stable and 5.2.1 current and stable: 
this wmp11v4, a d-link dwl-510 and dwl-520. None of them have been detected so far by 
wi. The 520 is one of those newer cards with a different chipset. The 510 is not 
supported by wi.. and now this third replacement, the wmp11 is yet again a new 
chipset.. am I out of luck?

The cdrom drive may be forcing your hard drive to use a much slower
UDMA. If I were you I would connect the cd-rom player on your
secondary channel or at the very least disconnect it and see if your
problem persists and you might even find you get better tranfer rates.

Redirecting console output to serial port to capture error message

2004-11-04 Thread Roger L. Beeman
I have been trying to capture the error message that I receive when
trying to boot any of the Release 5.3 beta or release candidate iso
images on my DEC Personal Workstation 333i+. The system is an LX440
chipset based dual processor (2x PII 333MHz).

I have been trying to redirect the error to the serial port and worked
a while to get to where I learned that this incantation:

#mkisofs -U -R -V fbsd_bootonly \
-no-emul-boot -b boot/cdboot -c boot_catalog \
-o /home/mbcd.iso /home/bootcd/cdrom

after adding a /boot/loader.conf.local file containing
  console=comconsole

to the contents of the bootonly.iso copied to /home/bootcd/cdrom would
actually redirect this much of the output to the serial port:

/boot/kernel/kernel text=0x4363cc data=0x7cc00+0x4fe20 
  syms=[0x4+0x5a690+0x4+0x6f5d8]

but after that, the error message still pours out only on the video
console, repeated endlessly, rolling by much too fast to make any
sense of.

What am I missing about redirecting the console output? I'm reading
section 20.6.6.1 of the the "fine" manual, as saying that this should
do the trick.

" ugen0 instead of uscanner0 means it is not seeing it as a scanner, just 
" an unidentified USB device.  5.2.1 may not have had IDs for this 
" scanner; see if /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs.h contains this line (which

This line allready present in my /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs.h,
and I was compiled my kernel about a week ago. Do you think I
need some patch?

Configure WEP on startup

2004-11-04 Thread Christopher Rued
I apologize in advance if this question has been asked and answered 
before, but I haven't really found a completely satisfactory answer 
anywhere that I looked.

My question is: what is the correct way to configure my wireless network 
card to use WEP and to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server at at 
startup?  What's the magic line to insert into rc.conf?

uname -a:
FreeBSD laptop.xsb-internal.com 5.3-STABLE FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE #0: Wed 
Nov  3 06:45:45 EST 2004 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

The closest thing I have found is 
https://cusg.eecs.berkeley.edu/~bira/freebsdwireless.html but this is 
for an older version of FreeBSD and it requires some weired hackery, 
such as inserting sleeps to (hopefully) allow the rest of the system to 
get to a point where wicontrol commands will work.  Also, it seems to be 
for an older version of FreeBSD and uses deprecated wicontrol commands.

(It would be nice if sysinstall would handle this).
Please include me on any replies, as I am not subscribed to this list.
TIA
