Rough math puts that at 1MB/s. Rougher math says after overhead etc., perhaps theres a large CONCRETE wall between yourself and the WAP. All things to consider.

Looking for a KATE replacement
Hey everyone, When I started using FreeBSD for desktop usage ( about a year ago ) I used KDE as desktop manager, but now I am using XFCE4.2.1 for that purpose. But when writing html pages, scripts, programs etc I still use KATE ( KDE Advanced Text Editor ), the thing is that it starts up realy slow ( probably because it has to load a lot of basic kde stuff ). So the question was does anyone know a good graphical replacement for Kate, I esspecially like the bar on the left which lets you easily switch between multiple files, and the build in terminalclient on the bottom. I tried looking in the ports/editors section but there are that many editors I realy don't know what to use. I am looking for a graphical editor, not commandline ( therefor I allready use joe ).

DNS, BIND9 ... diving in ...
OK, here we go ... I'm going to attempt setting up BIND9 for the first time, and I don't have a lot of experience with DNS. My setup is a LAN behind a router using NAT on an ADSL connection with a dynamic IP on its interface assigned by my ISP. I'm not interested in setting up an authoritative server for this reason, and the internal names do not need to be sent to the WAN. From what I understand, I'll be setting up a caching name server. I basically understand this much. However, what I've done to this point is assign non-authoritative names (hope I'm getting that terminology correct) to my computers here, though FreeBSD assumes they're authoritative, which most of the time doesn't present a problem, as I'm not running DNS locally, nor am I running a MTA to deliver mail to the outside; sendmail only delivers locally, and I use my ISP's mail servers otherwise. But, the names I've assigned are obviously not worthwhile in terms of how they are seen to the WAN or any authoritative DNS server. Is it possible to assign non-authoritative names to internal boxen without screwing with DNS conventions? I ask this, as my internal names are always attached to mail headers, for instance, but to admins they're useless, and I'm essentially forging a header by doing so, as my IP doesn't match the name I've given. For instance: Received: from unknown (HELO smogmonster.com) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]@64.173.27.15 with plain) by smtp811.mail.sc5.yahoo.com with SMTP; 30 Apr 2005 11:26:08 - Well, I don't own smogmonster.com (when I first picked it, nobody did, but now someone does), but FreeBSD wouldn't let me assign a name that wouldn't ever resolve, like simply smogmonster. Is this a problem, or should I not worry about it? Or am I missing something vital here? Also, is there any sort of guide on how to set up DNS in my situation? I've read the handbook, and it seems most of it is covered, but additional sources are always welcome. Later, I'll be getting static IPs and will probably have my ISP handle rDNS, but I'll need to assign authoritative names at that point, though not until then. - jt ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

perl dumped core--- trying to find the cause.
Sometime yesterday, perl dumped core on my server. I've been trying to work out what actually went wrong. I have two things that I know are running in perl: 1) ddclient, which keeps my ip address synced with dyndns.org and 2) spamassassin. The only info that I can find is a mention in the kernel log: Apr 29 08:51:55 yuri /kernel: pid 2683 (perl), uid 1002: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) Now, the UID is mine, so I assume that this was spamassassin that went wrong since ddclient is running as root. Also in my ~/Mail directory is a perl.core file that I tried to open with gdb, but it borks because there is no symbol file and no stack (I guess because it was from a script?). What more can I do to try and track down/prevent this happening again. Could there be any other processes that I have running in perl (i.e. is there a way to find out 'ps -ax | grep perl' only finds ddclient because that is running as a daemon, spamassassin is called by procmail, so isn't there all the time) My server has rebooted itself a few times in the last six months (due to kernel panics), and I've been trying to find the cause. Could this be it? I haven't updated in a while, so would going to 4-CURRENT be the best plan (I'm going to stick with FreeBSD-4 at the moment)?

Re: What is ata2 ?

I disconnected the CDrom cable from the motherboard's IDE, and connected it to this soundcard. Nothing there at bootup; no mentioning of any CDrom in the kernel messages.

mergemaster -p
hello, I am having some problems during my upgrde from FreeBSD 5.2 RELEASE to FreeBSD 5 - STABLE. Everything works fine up to make installkernel.

Re: [solved] local mail not working
On stardate Sat, 30 Apr 2005, the wise Marco Beishuizen entered: Hi, Since I run sendmail as MTA, my local mail is not being delivered anymore. I've installed logcheck which sends an e-mail every hour to root/user. When sendmail was not installed, local mail was delivered properly, but now it is not anymore. I'm not getting any error messages and the mail spoolers are empty, so I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. The computer is behind a adsl-router and sending and receiving external mail is working fine with sendmail/fetchmail. Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance, Marco I found the problem. I wrongly changed the IP address in the host.domain.submit.mc file to that of the smarthost, instead of leaving it to 127.0.0.1. It seems to work fine again. Marco -- Economists state their GNP growth projections to the nearest tenth of a percentage point to prove they have a sense of humor. -- Edgar R.

Re: Determining what a port will install... (more than pretty-print-*)
Philip Hallstrom wrote: Is there a way to determine exactly what a particular port will install on my machine? Doing a `make pretty-print-run-depends-list` will show me all of its requirements... but I am interested in the difference between its requirements and what I already have on my machine. If I have 7 out of the 10 requirements I would like the remaining 3 listed for me. Is there something in place which provides this? The portupgrade port can do this. Something like... portupgrade -n -Rr someport The -n tells it not to do anything, just show you what it would do. The -r and -R tell it to upgrade any dependencies in both directions. At the end it will print out a little summary of what ports it needs to upgrade, what needs installed, and what you've already got. This sounds like what I'm looking for... so I tried it. But its giving me difficulties. I am using `portupgrade -nN -rR x11-fm/rox-filer` for example. I know I have most, but not all, of what is needed by rox-filer. I was hoping to see a concise list of things I am missing (and would therefore be installed). In my example I used the `-N` switch because the man page sounded like that what was needed when the port is not currently installed (which is my situation). But portupgrade reports --- Session started at: Sat, 30 Apr 2005 16:23:07 -0500 Install 'x11-fm/rox-filer'?

Is this a problem, or should I not worry about it? Or am I missing something vital here? It's considered impolite to impersonate a domain which does not belong to you. For the purposes of email, it would be better to masquerade as a host in the domain of your ISP or mail service (ie, masquarade as pacbell.net). OK, thanks for clarifying, as that's what I thought, but ... Also, is there any sort of guide on how to set up DNS in my situation? Yes, use an invalid top-level domain like .local, or maybe .lan. So, which would be better here? Would it be considered impolite to assign foo.local to my workstation, if I'm sending email through Pacbell's (SBC/Yahoo) server? Or would it be more impolite to masquerade as pacbell.net, as the mail server is actually assigned to Yahoo, and the ISP is now SBC with Pacbell email names grandfathered in from their acquisition? Or, maybe this isn't so much of an issue, as long as it's not masquerading as someone else's domain, but I'd tend towards something like .local, as there won't be any confusion. I've read the handbook, and it seems most of it is covered, but additional sources are always welcome. Later, I'll be getting static IPs and will probably have my ISP handle rDNS, but I'll need to assign authoritative names at that point, though not until then. O'Reilley publishes an excellent book on DNS, although the BOG (BIND Operations Guide) is also worth a read. Yes, I must remember to save some money and get some more O'Reilly books. Their DNS book has been recommended to me before, but thanks for reminding me, as I know it's good, and it honestly should be on my shelf.
