This is on a 5.3-R machine. The file system mentioned, / local/jail/jail1 is a /dev/md -- md(4) type file system used to constrain the user in that specific jail to a certain amount of space and to make it easy to dump that filesystem for backups. I don't know what the user of that jail was doing or when it started happening. Is the inumber 166876 an inode inside the filesystem? Or what does it refer to? I don't know why it continuously stuck that message thousands of times in the system log but I killed the process with that PID and all was well. My interesting issue is that on ssh login to OTHER JAILS on other / dev/md type filesystems, that had nothing to do with that jail or filesystem, login was prevented as the login process would print a similar message to the one above in the login window over and over and over and would never complete login. /local/jails/jail1: write failed, filesystem is full /local/jails/jail1: write failed, filesystem is full /local/jails/jail1: write failed, filesystem is full /local/jails/jail1: write failed, filesystem is full /local/jails/jail1: write failed, filesystem is full Only when I killed the offending process did it allow the login to continue. However, this seemed to be hit or miss. Sometimes an ssh login to a jail (not the offending jail) would work and sometimes it would do the above. Why would this issue with this one jail file system affect jails that had nothing to do with the full filesystem and what happens at login that would dump these console type messages to the ssh login window?

New FreeBSD wanna-be
Hi, First of all sorry for a bit of haste and not having followed this list for too long before I post here some possibly stupid questions. I suffered a hdd crash some time ago with my laptop and got finally the impulse to do what I have planned doing for quite some time; to create a server at home with RAID-1 mirroring to back up all the inportant data automaticly. Okay, it is not fool-proof, but should be good-enough for my needs. Anyway, I had an old computer, Celeron 400MHz (128MB, I have 256MB dimm as well but hoped I would not need it) with two nics doing routing and NAT there already, so I hit it with a two new NICs (Intel EtherExpress 10/100 Pro D-Link 528T) and pair of hard-drives (Seagate 7200.7 160GB). Got the 5.4 mini-iso for network (FTP) install and started the whole thing. All went well till it asked me to write a screenfull of nonsense to generate the password entropy stuff. Well, the machine hanged, I got some strange colours to my screen and lot of beebing noises. I hit the powerbutton and restarted, all seems to go well by I have had no luck at all to connect to FTP or internet for that matter after that. This includes new, fresh install attempts as well. In fact, since I try to do ftp install in the first place it does not even continue these new installs. I have ADSL and the box gets the config via DHCP, it seems to fetch the IPs quite ok just never connects to the ftp site(s). I mostly tried just the main site, but the local site as well. Any idea what is going on? It could be a hardware malfunction for some reason, now while I am at work I have SuSE being installed there to see if that too gives the same trouble. Both NICs should be supported by FreeBSD based on hardware notes. The D-Link does not even seem to show up, however, in sysinstall list where there is the fxp0 on the list for the Intell card. The kernel config shown in installation guide (yes, noticed the addon for 5.4) does not quite fit what I am seeing with the new installer. Sorry for probably too long email, but till I can get the routing up and running, I have limited possibilities to solve this myself.

pxe boot failure
Hello,
I'm trying to get pxeboot running without any success so far.
I get 'BTX halted' after a register dump showing an int 6.
I read almost anything, I could find about that problem.
I tried with/without LOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT, I uncommented
those delay() lines in pxe.c and enlarged the delays.
I even doubled some of the internal buffers.
The crash is always at different locations. The last
message usually is pxe_open: gateway ip: 10.47.11.1.
Tcpdump shows no problems.
So am I just having a buggy boot prom?
My board has an intel 82559er chip and I was told
by the board's manufacturer, that linux pxeboot
does work fine, which not really helps. They have no
newer bios update and know nothing about pxe problems.
My environment is FreeBSD 4.11 with latest ISC dhcpd.
Here are my settings:
/usr/local/dhcpd.conf:
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
ddns-update-style ad-hoc;
log-facility local7;
subnet 10.47.11.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range dynamic-bootp 10.47.11.10 10.47.11.99;
option routers 10.47.11.1;
filename pxeboot;
next-server 10.47.11.1;
option root-path 10.47.11.1:/usr/local/diskless_root;
}
/etc/inetd.conf (for LOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT=yes):
tftp dgram udp wait root /usr/libexec/tftpd tftpd -l -s
/usr/local/diskless_root
/etc/exports:
/usr -ro -maproot=0 -alldirs -network 10.47.11.00 -mask 255.255.255.0
BTW, booting via etherboot disk works. I just have to replace pxeboot with
kernel
in dhcpd.conf.
Any hints?
Thank you,
Norbert

uplcom a callin only device?
Hello. I'm trying to get a sub-to-rs232 adaptor running with FreeBSD-5. The vendor of this adaptor is some chinese company named High-Edge Tech, but as usbdevs shows, it identifies as USB_VENDOR_PROLIFIC(0x067b) and USB_PRODUCT_PROLIFIC_PL2303(0x2303). For testing, I connect the adaptor with the same computer's cuaa0 and do an 'stty speed 9600 clocal' on /dev/ucom0 and /dev/cuaia0. Now, if I do 'cat /dev/ucom0' and 'cat /dev/cuaa0', I see typed characters coming in. If I try the opposite direction, nothing happens. Is that something, I should've expected, and if so, why? Does it have to do with the difference of callin and callout devices? Can I use /dev/ucom0 only as callin device like /dev/ttyd0?

sysctls issue

Actually, there has been one since I set the two sysctls: Jun 28 12:51:42 server kernel: arplookup 195.70.50.6 failed: host is not on local network Before I set them to 0, there had been much more arplookup messages, just the same as I wrote above.

[FYI] QT4 licensing looks very bad for *BSD
Folks, I don't want to scare anyone but today QT4 was released and their web page (http://www.trolltech.com/download/opensource.html) specifically states several times that if using the free version one is required to release their own code under GPL. That's effectively a requirement to relicense which goes much further than the GPL itself. The former licensing amounted to abide to the GPL or QPL as is normal for a GPL project and in that case one could release code under BSDL and if anything let the next guy worry about it (if they want to distribute a derivative). I think this should be discussed. I already sent the Trolls an email asking for clarification about this, or rather if it's as bad as it seems for us. Perhaps they just overlooked the *BSDs...

I saw your question the first time. I answered it. Simply reposting your query (three times in succession) does *not* make me inclined to help you any more. However, I will repeat again what you need to know: 1. Make sure you are running courier-imap-4.x with courier-authlib-0.5x. If you are not, then upgrade. If you built from ports, then upgrade your ports collection first if you need to. Follow the instructions in the FreeBSD handbook to do that. 2. Next, follow the instructions for debugging courier authentication here: http://www.courier-mta.org/authlib/README.authdebug.html Make sure you implement the part which tells you to make sure you are logging syslog messages at 'debug' level. Under FreeBSD these messages usually end up in /var/log/debug.log 3. You will get detailled information in those logs showing exactly how the mysql connection is made, the query sent, and the response returned. 4. When you have all of that, post here again. Until then, please ask someone else for help (or pay a consultant to help you) Brian. P.S. There is also good advice at http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html If the answer you got before was in any way incomplete or not understandable, then say what you tried, what was missing, or what you didn't understand.

One of the patches I needed didn't work properly on my 64bit Sparc system (or it could have been a conflict between two patches, I wasn't totally sure) - causing memory errors and some seemingly random mail loss. And if you've spent any time on the Qmail list you'll notice answers to that kind of problem are usually 1) stop using that patch, qmail works fine and doesn't need patches 2) debug the C and show us which part is causing the problem or 3) stop bugging us and contact the patch author. So I switched to Postfix instead. :-) The one thing I miss is the use of .qmail files or an equivalent with my virtual domains and mysql backend, but there have been several threads on here for ways to do it without the mysql.

Re: [FYI] QT4 licensing looks very bad for *BSD
Danny Pansters wrote: I don't want to scare anyone but today QT4 was released and their web page (http://www.trolltech.com/download/opensource.html) specifically states several times that if using the free version one is required to release their own code under GPL. That's effectively a requirement to relicense which goes much further than the GPL itself. The former licensing amounted to abide to the GPL or QPL as is normal for a GPL project and in that case one could release code under BSDL and if anything let the next guy worry about it (if they want to distribute a derivative). TrollTech is playing the same type of game that MySQL is doing. If you write your own program, and use it with QT which results in a derivative work, then you may not redistribute your program without complying with the terms of the GPL. Nothing in the GPL requires someone else's code to be relicensed under the GPL, it just requires that code to be under a GPL-miscable license. The new BSDL (ie, without the advertizing clause) is fine. Also note that the Open Source Definition does not allow restrictions on the field of endeavor: The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor. For example, it may not restrict the program from being used in a business, or from being used for genetic research. Rationale: The major intention of this clause is to prohibit license traps that prevent open source from being used commercially.

Re: Logging Stops after few minutes
Whoa now. No need for us all to get snappy. Bottom line, what you posted isn't much help, and without knowing anything about your system/setup, it's very difficult to offer solutions. First things first, are you sure that syslogd stops working after only 2 minutes? Syslogd only chews on the processor when it has something to do. Showing up as only running for 2 minutes when you run ps shouldn't be a concern; that is the total CPU time and syslogd doesn't need much time to get the job done on most systems. If you're certain that it isn't logging events that it should: did you make ever make any modifications to /etc/syslog.conf? If so, comment out (put a # at the start of the line) the lines with the most recent changes. Restart syslogd. If it works, uncomment out one line and restart syslogd. Keep doing that until you narrow down what causes syslog to suspend operations. Let us know if you find out anything.

Device access - /dev/ipnat
Hello FreeBSD lovers, In the current FreeBSD ports, squid-2.5STABLE10 has a patch that allows it to run without dying even though it does not have access to /dev/ipnat. This access is important where squid is running in a transparent proxy setup. I am running several FreeBSD 5.x boxes with squid in transparent proxy mode, so this problem is a big one for me. The patch seems to be a workaround, but I'd really like to give squid access to this device anyway. My thinking was that I can solve the problem of access to /dev/ipnat using /etc/devfs.conf.

amavis problems
Ever since running the update to the newest version of perl I've run into difficulty with my amavis scanning. I think there are some p5* packages that aren't properly recompiled to run with the latest PERL...the logs are showing errors like Clam Antivirus-clamd: Error reading from /var/run/clamav/clamd: Resource temporarily unavailable at (eval 53) line 253, GEN17 line 1., retrying (2) and TROUBLE in check_mail: virus_scan FAILED: virus_scan: ALL VIRUS SCANNERS FAILED: Clam Antivirus-clamd av-scanner FAILED: Too many retries to talk to /var/run/clamav/clamd (Error reading from /var/run/clamav/clamd: Resource temporarily unavailable at (eval 53) line 253, GEN18 line 1.) at (eval 53) line 264, GEN18 line 1.; Clam Antivirus - clamscan av-scanner FAILED: Error reading: Resource temporarily unavailable at (eval 53) line 389, GEN19 line 10. despite the fact that when amavisd-new starts up, it states in the log: Using internal av scanner code for (primary) Clam Antivirus-clamd and the socket for clamd exists with 777 permissions, and the groups for vscan are vscan and clamav and for clamav the group memberships are clamav mail vscan.

RE: Logging Stops after few minutes
Sorry! Didn't mean to be snappy, I thank you for your level head. Basically, this is what is happening the syslog.conf file has the line for all.log to be activated in the directory I chose, which is /usr/log. I know for certain that if I stop and restart the syslogd daemon, it will start writing to all.log and then after few minutes, it will stop and that is it.

Re: Logging Stops after few minutes
First let's be sure that syslogd is not logging at all. Try this: $ sudo tail -n10 /var/log/messages Enter your password $ su Enter anything (an incorrect password) $ sudo tail -n10 /var/log/messages If the somewhere in the last few lines of the messages log you see a message that there was a BAD SU attempt, syslogd is working fine. Then we have to look at the syslog settings for ftp (or whatever isn't logging). If that didn't work, just for kicks try stopping syslogd if it's running (started), moving it to .old, and rebuilding a replacement. (Hopefully this is typo-free) # /etc/rc.d/syslogd stop # mv /usr/sbin/syslogd /usr/sbin/syslogd.old # cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/syslogd # make # make install # /etc/rc.d/syslogd start Note that you will probably have to do make and make install as two separate commands (without a clean). That may or may not do anything useful. If it does, you might want to do some hard drive checks to make sure things are in good order. Also, I trust that you are using /etc/rc.d/ to start and stop system processes. If that doesn't work, what does: ps -waux | grep syslogd Output? Also, if possible, send me a copy of the /etc/syslog.conf file.

Showing up as only running for 2 minutes when you run ps shouldn't be a concern; that is the total CPU time and syslogd doesn't need much time to get the job done on most systems. If you're certain that it isn't logging events that it should: did you make ever make any modifications to /etc/syslog.conf? If so, comment out (put a # at the start of the line) the lines with the most recent changes. Restart syslogd. If it works, uncomment out one line and restart syslogd. Keep doing that until you narrow down what causes syslog to suspend operations. Let us know if you find out anything.

Didn't mean to be snappy, I thank you for your level head. Basically, this is what is happening the syslog.conf file has the line for all.log to be activated in the directory I chose, which is /usr/log. I know for certain that if I stop and restart the syslogd daemon, it will start writing to all.log and then after few minutes, it will stop and that is it. I have my FTPD daemon setup to record all FTP activity but that is not happening. Please tell me running FTPD as daemon is not the cause or should I run FTP as a service. I have a lot of load due to FTP. Thanks for your help!!!

Running Programs from CRON as root
I am not sure how to go about this. If I do not want to touch the system CRON, is it possible to create a personal CRON that could run two programs, both at the super user level Example: I want to update the ports tree and then run portmanager to install the updates. These obviously have to be run as root. Is there a way I can force this to happen without actually leaving the system logged in as root? I have 'bash 3' installed as my shell if that makes any difference. -- Gerard E.

I had mysterious errors with mod_python (the error messages had nothing to do with threads) until I disabled threads both in python and mod_python. Threads were the problem, but not with Python itself. I had to build the apache2 port with --enable-threads specified. Apache starts up fine after being recompiled with that option. -CM ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sure... as root, type crontab -e and put in your entries according to the crontab format. This will store the entries in root's personal cron file. Not /etc/crontab... Save the file. Logout. I find it helpful to paste this at the top of my crontab files to help me remember the format... ## # # field allowed values # - -- # minute0-59 # hour 0-23 # day of month 1-31 # month 1-12 (or names, see below) # day of week 0-7 (0 or 7 is Sun, or use names) # command /path/to/cmd arg1 arg2 # ## ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Let Winxp loose on my fbsd partition? shudders Well, it's a sourceforge project, so it isn't by Microsoft. If you're concerned about data integrity, then you could try: 1) Mount only one shared FreeBSD partition using this software and 2) Make this partition on a separate disk slice (or even disk) from your regular system. It's either that or FAT32 (with no real concept of file ownership, file permissions, or ability to change times). Thanks a lot for this - I'll have a very careful go!

wine config in FreeBSD
Hello, Just wondering if anyone could direct me to where wine configuration is done by default under FreeBSD. I need to setup Wine, and I would like to use a systemwide conf file (/etc/wine.conf in Linux) or the user config file in ~/.wine/config. The issue is that I don't know what default values are being used, so I can't use the defaults when planning out my personal config file and every time I try to use winetools to setup Wine, I have issues with the drive mappings, etc. Thanks for your help, -Garrett ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Looking for arp scanner
Hi there, I've browsing freshports.org for an arp scanner and found only arpscan, which is marked broken and knowlan, which hasn't been updated in years. What's the tool of choice to map out IP-Adresses on a subnet when you know that quite a few hosts are firewalled from ping?

Apache2 + Tomcat
I am looking for a good HOWTO on configuring Tomcat + Apache2 - I have successfully installed: jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30 mod_jk-apache2-1.2.6,1 - The documentation I have been able to find on the web (apache.org / google / yahoo) seems somewhat sparse.
