broken ports

[Reinhard Weismann]

does anybody know where to report broken ports, or, where to get
information if/why a port currently is broken. 

in this case on my 5.4-RELEASE-p6 (i386) installations, the port 
mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin (p5-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.0) does not
compile, i.e. i get 
[..]
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
*** Error code 139
[..]
when doing a `make configure` (regardless of which options are
enabled/disabled and which optional modules are installed)

on another installation with 5.3, but same perl-version (v5.8.7 built
for i386-freebsd-64int) it works.

i would like to recover data from my vinum partition

[Milo]

I broke my system (did make world with RELENG_5_4 while running 4.10) and I
was running
mirrored /usr partitions with vinum using ad0 and ad2. This morning I didn't
have time to setup vinum and installed 5.4 from cd onto ad0 as usual.

How can I see the data on my vinum drive (ad2) using mount? Other methods
you know of to access the drive to see if I can recover any data?

I tried mounting but only get "incorrect super block" error.
root# mount -t ufs /dev/ad2s1e /mnt/ad2
mount: /dev/ad2s1e on /mnt/ad2: incorrect super block

I also tried changing the fstype from "vinum" to "4.2BSD" using bsdlabel but
no such luck.
root# bsdlabel ad2s1
# /dev/ad2s1:
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
c: 241248042 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit
e: 233815971 0 vinum
f: 7432071 233815971 4.2BSD 2048 16384 89

Suggestions greatly appreciated. I searched the lists and google but could
not find the answer.

xine / kaffeine core dumps with bus error

[Ian Moore]

Hi,
I went to play a video file today & with kaffeine and it crashed when trying 
to open the file. I decided to do a portupgrade -fR kaffeine\* to rebuild it 
and it's dependencies in the hope that would fix the problem, but it made no 
difference.
Then I tried running xine by itself and found it gave a bus error and core 
dumped every time I tried to start it (not opening a file or anything). The 
splash screen appears, then the GUI, then both close and in the xterm I start 
it from, I just bus error.

I've tried doing a portupgrade -f xine just in case, though it should have 
been re-built along with kaffeine. None of the above seems to fix the 
problem.
I'm running FBSD 5.4-RELEASE p6 and my ports tree was updated last night. Port 
versions are:
kaffeine-0.7.1
xine-0.99.4

 Xine/Kaffeine used to work, evidently a recent portupgrade has broken it, 
though I'm not sure exactly when it last worked.

Just hoping someone can suggest a fix!

Cheers,

As far as I know, KDE in FreeBSD 5.4 does not support other languages
by default; Gnome does. I managed to set up Gome at home to write in
Russian.

FreeBSD NFS server not responding to TCP SYN packets from Linux/SunOS clients

[Nicolas KOWALSKI]

Hello,

Our FreeBSD 4.10 NFS server has some problems serving files by NFS on
TCP (no problem with UDP) when the Linux (2.6) or Solaris (5.9)
clients shut down in an unclean manner (power failure). 

When the clients try to mount the shares from the server after an
unclean shutdown, the mount process hang during several minutes (delay
is varying), then succeeds.

I used ethereal on a Linux client, just after an unclean shutdown, and
it looks like the client is sending SYN packets to the 2049 port of
the server, but the server does not respond to this ; the client
retries a few seconds later, and the server still does not acknoledge
it ; and it continues several times, until succeeding.

Here is a trace ; the frames showing the problem are 33-36, when the
client request a SYN to the 2049 port.

Is there something I can set on the server (sysctl variable perhaps),
to make it accept the SYN packets from the clients ?


As an counter-example, here is a trace when the same Linux client,
after an unclean shutdown, tries to mount a previously (before the
powerfailure) NFS mounted share from a SunOS 5.9 server. The SYN
packet is acknowledged by the server (frames 36-37), so the client
does not hang mounting the share.

Why shouldn't FreeBSD "install on a SATA HDD.in a dual boot situation
with Windows XP and the Grub Bootloader"?

Please give us some more details or nobody can help you.

Here is an improved/spoiled (decide by yourself) version. I aimed to
sport a more orthogonal design and avoid some gotchas I run into (see
comments in awk code).


#! /bin/sh

# Script to determine the differences between what is necessary for
# a port, and what is already present on the local machine.

awkprgt='{
count = 0
pkgs = ""
for(i=5; i<=NF-2; i++) {
  pkg = $i

  # the "if" is here to hack it around when you get:
  # This port requires package(s) "" to build.
  if (pkg != "\"\"") {
if (index(pkg, "\"") == 1)
  {pkg = substr(pkg, 2, length(pkg)-1)}
if (index(pkg, "\"") > 1)
  {pkg = substr(pkg, 1, length(pkg)-1)}
  
if ( system("pkg_info -e " pkg) == 1) {
  pkgs = pkgs " " pkg
  count++
}
  }
}

if ( count ) {
  print "You need the following (%s) perequisites:"
  print pkgs
}
else {
  print "All (%s) prerequisites are present."
}

  }
  END {
# triggered, eg., by audio/artswrapper (on my box, at least)
if( ! FNR) {
  print "Bogus (empty) %s dependency information"
}
  }
'

awkit() {
# Resolve "%s"-s via sed is a blunt hack
# but good enough here and thus we don't have
# to care about the number of occurrences
awk "`echo "$awkprgt" | sed s/%s/$1/g`"
}


make pretty-print-build-depends-list | awkit build

make pretty-print-run-depends-list | awkit run


Alas... while I was making these changes, I succeeded to recall why I
abandoned my earlier attempt to put together a script which fulfils this
(highly desired) functionality.

Because all such scripts are fundamentally broken.

When make decides which ports to pull in, it doesn't only use the flat
data of build and run dependencies, but uses its full Turing complete
computing power. Eg., what happens when a port needs a postscript
interpreter? Should it use the AFPL or the GNU edition as a dependency?
Of course, doing a favor toward one of them (and taking away user's
choice) is unacceptable. So what happens is that make directly checks
whether the gs executable is present.

See, for example, print/gv. Your script's output will include
ghostscript-gnu-7.07_13 both as a build and a run dependency.
Yet when I type make, my ghostscript-gnu-7.07_12 installation will
be happily utilized as the following output snippet shows:

=> Checksum OK for gv-3.6.1.tar.gz.
===>  Patching for gv-3.6.1
===>  Applying FreeBSD patches for gv-3.6.1
===>   gv-3.6.1 depends on executable: gmake - found
===>   gv-3.6.1 depends on executable: gs - found
===>   gv-3.6.1 depends on shared library: Xaw3d - found
===>   gv-3.6.1 depends on shared library: X11.6 - found
===>  Configuring for gv-3.6.1

The approach taken by FreeBSD's ports is to have more flexibility but
less predictability, and now we have to live with it. Maybe the Gentoo
guys are the ones who succeeded to find the proper balance between these
two quantities -- they made up a mini-markup-language for denoting
dependencies, which is clever enough to cover all cases but it's still
just an easy to parse flat data.

One solution for FreeBSD could be digging deep into the make backend of
the ports framework and insert the necessary hooks everywhere to produce
a reliable dry-run.

Or severely refactor the whole ports framework and switch to Gentoo style
dependency handling. This won't happen any soon IMHO as ports API
changes should be pushed through all ports...

(OFF: to have a bit of bitter laugh, I think Gentoo's portage suffers
from a fundamental design flaw: they can't tune installation prefixes
(which would be necessary to make it an acceptable cross platform 3rd
party package manager, akin to pkgsrc, but it would have other uses, too).
This is again such a thing which can be changed only by rewriting all of
their e-builds.)

Csaba

Feedback for a closed PR?

[Csaba Henk]

Hi!

I had some problem with my digicam. I found a PR which described the
phenomena and gave a workaround, too. (PR i386/76653, see

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=i386/76653

).

As I see, feedback was asked for but it didn't come... hence finally the
PR has been closed. Now I have the information which could give the
requested feedback... What am I to do?

The PR Handling Guidelines
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/pr-guidelines/)
doesn't cover this case... More precisely, it says that if a "problem is
not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources", then it
should be suspended, not closed (so I find it strange that this PR has
been closed).

I got it to work sort of.

jackd -d oss -r 44100 will make it work for xmms-jack
plugin. But just about anything will send it
spiralling out of control. I tried the commercial oss
drivers and they were worse, even after I inlcuded (I
think) the commercial headers.

Updating to jack-0.100.0 didn't help either.

Using jackd -d dummy results in the same loss of
control.

This is the jack output:
could not handle external client request
cannot read request from client (0/2100/Resource
temporarily unavailable)

I'm giving up for now.

I just shut everything down and did the make installworld live, and

aware of.


The other possibility is that this is a problem with webmin, although  
that doesn't seem likely since this error seems to indicate something  
broken with perl.  Still, why is this the only place where the error  
is showing up?  Lots of other stuff uses perl on my machine -- exim,  
spam-assassin, etc.

Either submit a followup to the PR requesting that it's reopened and

I haven't had acroread6 installed in a long time, but acroread5 still
works for me (in a very carefully controlled environment, because its
security bugs are both serious and unlikely to be fixed).

That's *not* the right place.  The right place would be
/usr/compat/linux/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6.  
The one you found will only help you with FreeBSD binaries, not Linux ones.

I don't either, but you seem to have been updating things in a
haphazard way.  Fix the dependency, update the ports, and you should
be fine.

[Jerry McAllister]

> 
> Dont you have do the passwd for the Toor ?

There is no password for toor unless you created one.
Toor is just an extra account name partially set up in case you 
wanted one.   It serves as sort of a template for creating a root 
account by hand.

Do as I suggest - look up the FAQ - specifically:
 http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/admin.html#FORGOT-ROOT-PW
in case you can't figure it out.

Or look in the list archives.   It is mentioned many times.  I have
written it up several times and others have as well.

The specific FAQ is missing one piece of instruction, although it is
covered copiously in other parts,  it doesn't say how to get to that
boot prompt in the root password item.   So, to do that, boot the system
- CTRL-ALT-DEL  or  power cycle it if needed.   When it gets to the
countdown that says hit ENTER to boot immediately or any other key
for boot prompt, just hit the spacebar.   Then do the rest - 'type boot -s'
when it finishes type 'fsck -p', let it finish, type 'mount -u /'
and then 'mount -a' (and 'swapon -a' if you want) and then 'passwd root'
or if you had created another named root account like Rleo for example,

type 'passwd Rleo' and set the password.   You can even set a password
for the toor account if you like.   Then reboot with 'shudown -r now'/.
When it comes up, you should be able to log in to the account for which
you set the password.   You might also want to make a separate home 
directory for that account and choose a shell.   I put mine in /root/myROOT
if the account is myROOT.

Next time, check the archives and FAQ when suggested before arguing with 
the person responding to you question.

Add:

options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD
options IPFIREWALL_DIVERT

...to your kernel config file.  This is mostly documented here:

Also note that ipfw forwarding alone may not do what you expect, unless you

I meant 7 (SEVEN) :).
I reinstalled acroread with
# portinstall acroread
and this fixed the problem with the Acroread5.

Re: xine / kaffeine core dumps with bus error

I think I'm having a similar problem with totem (which uses xine) and vlc.
 Can you try installing /usr/ports/multimedia/vlc and see what that does? 
If that gives a bus error as well then I think we might have the same

Re: Determining what a port will install... (more than pretty-print-*) [Soln]

Hello,

Some time back I posted a question regarding how to determine what
ports/packages would need to be installed on my machine when I install a 
new (new to the local machine) port.


For example, if I do not presently have openoffice installed... what
will get installed when I 'make install clean' it?  Note that I want the
differences between what is needed to build/run the port and what is
already present on the machine.

At the time no one responded with a clear way to do this... so I finally
had a few minutes to write a script to do it for me.  I thought someone
else might find it useful... So I'm posting it here for comments and
thoughts (be gentle, I'm new to awk).



Here is an improved/spoiled (decide by yourself) version. 


Improved.


I aimed to
sport a more orthogonal design and avoid some gotchas I run into (see
comments in awk code).


#! /bin/sh

# Script to determine the differences between what is necessary for
# a port, and what is already present on the local machine.

awkprgt='{
count = 0
pkgs = ""
for(i=5; i<=NF-2; i++) {
  pkg = $i

  # the "if" is here to hack it around when you get:
  # This port requires package(s) "" to build.


I never ran into this case.


  if (pkg != "\"\"") {
if (index(pkg, "\"") == 1)
  {pkg = substr(pkg, 2, length(pkg)-1)}
if (index(pkg, "\"") > 1)
  {pkg = substr(pkg, 1, length(pkg)-1)}
  
if ( system("pkg_info -e " pkg) == 1) {

  pkgs = pkgs " " pkg
  count++
}
  }
}

if ( count ) {
  print "You need the following (%s) perequisites:"
  print pkgs
}
else {
  print "All (%s) prerequisites are present."
}

  }


I did see this on a few ports... but decided to handle it in the same 
fashion as `make pretty-print*`, for better or worse.  My initial 
response was to do as you did (and I believe that IS the right thing)... 
but I fell back to what the make target did.  But I prefer your soln.



  END {
# triggered, eg., by audio/artswrapper (on my box, at least)
if( ! FNR) {
  print "Bogus (empty) %s dependency information"
}
  }
'

awkit() {
# Resolve "%s"-s via sed is a blunt hack
# but good enough here and thus we don't have
# to care about the number of occurrences
awk "`echo "$awkprgt" | sed s/%s/$1/g`"
}


make pretty-print-build-depends-list | awkit build

make pretty-print-run-depends-list | awkit run


Alas... while I was making these changes, I succeeded to recall why I
abandoned my earlier attempt to put together a script which fulfils this
(highly desired) functionality.


I highly desire this too... but my initial post (some months ago) 
received less attention than I expected.  I find this functionality very 
useful, and was surprised solution didn't already exist.




Because all such scripts are fundamentally broken.

When make decides which ports to pull in, it doesn't only use the flat
data of build and run dependencies, but uses its full Turing complete
computing power. Eg., what happens when a port needs a postscript
interpreter? 


Then do the pretty-print(s) not provide the useful information they 
appear to?  I mean, If the above were true then they would have no 
value... and should go away.  Or do they provide true but incomplete 
information?



Should it use the AFPL or the GNU edition as a dependency?
Of course, doing a favor toward one of them (and taking away user's
choice) is unacceptable. So what happens is that make directly checks
whether the gs executable is present.

See, for example, print/gv. Your script's output will include
ghostscript-gnu-7.07_13 both as a build and a run dependency.
Yet when I type make, my ghostscript-gnu-7.07_12 installation will
be happily utilized as the following output snippet shows:


Is this not acceptable behavior since it is just a port revision? 
Shouldn't the revision be compatible in every way with the vendor's release?

Mutt weirdness

[Bob Hall]

I did "portupgrade -ar" last night. When I tried to use mutt this 
morning, it was behaving weirdly. Mutt wasn't one of the upgrades.


Anything involving the display at the bottom of the mutt screen doesn't 
work. If I type "c" to change the mailbox, nothing happens. If I type 
"d", I can mark a mail for deletion, but I can't quit mutt because 
quitting requires a message at the bottom of the screen asking if I want 
to delete the messages marked for deletion. Typing "y" has no effect. I 
have to unmark the mail in order to quit.

which one's may be causing the problem.

OpenSSL?

ARE YOU RUNNING IN AN XTERM?  It may be that the newer xterm has some
weird curses intereaction ... last week or so I hit a situation where if
I change font size in xterm, the window resizes, and if I drag to resize
the window, the geometry is in pixels instead of characters.  Huh?  This
vintag of xterm sucks rocks, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was
plaguing your mutt as well. ;)

[EMAIL PROTECTED]: do CC the list please

Do you think everything distributed with FreeBSD is BSDL, Subhro? It's not. 
CCL is fine for contributed docs and artwork. Everyone seems to do it. 
There's no license issue.

But the question is, do the people who decide what goes in the distribution 
(on the CDs so to speak) want such a thing. I'm not one of them, but I think 
it's not a bad idea to have some media for testing and promotional purposes. 

I'm not sure who he should ask if they want that; releng@ ?

On installation CDs space is always tight though, and you probably don't want 
something like this to go stale for months on end. Before you'd know it there 
may be so many people offering media that after CD space, bandwidth may 
become an issue. A contrib-media port or something alike with RESTRICTED set 
is something that could be made by anyone at anytime of course.

Is your new mutt binary linked to libslang?  You can check with ldd:

$ ldd `which mutt` | grep -i slang
$

I've seen some pretty silly effects whenever my mutt port was installed
WITH_SLANG=yes.  Now my pkgtools.conf file includes (among other
things):

MAKE_ARGS = {
  'mail/mutt-devel*' => [
  'WITH_MUTT_NCURSES=YES',

Samba and/or cups problem with printing

[Nicolas Blais]

Hi,

(Please excuse my overly complicated message)

I just bought a usb laser printer (Lexmark E232). After some hours of digging, 
I ended up having it working with cups+foomatic under a Laserjet 4 driver in 
FreeBSD. It works fine.

But, to further complicate things, I wanted my printer to be accessible by XP 
users on the same workgroup so I added a share in samba :

[printers]
path = /var/spool/samba
use client driver = Yes
printable = yes
public = yes
guest ok = yes
writable = no

As user "Alpha"
I can see my share from XP so I tried to print a test page. Windows asks me 
for the drivers, which I provide and my test page prints about 5-6 minutes 
later and most complicated documents don't print.
Then I log in as user "Beta" and he sees the printer, can print instantly and 
everything is fine. Yet user "Alpha" takes hours to print.

So I figured, let's make a second printer in cups to the same physical printer 
and install the same drivers in XP, but this time in user "Beta". Not 
surprisingly, that "new" printer in user "Beta" takes infinitly long to print 
but now user "Alpha" can print instantly using that printer.

Can anyone guess why or how to fix this behavior?

Thanks!
Nicolas.

I don't know the cause.

Have you tried booting FreeBSD from power-off state w/ the flash
drive already inserted?  That may solve your booting problem, but
will not make use of the drive any easier.

Which version if FreeBSD are you using?  Which of the [ueo]hci
drivers come up in dmesg(8) on instertion of the USB drive?

sysinstall MEDIA_TIMEOUT pretty high

[David Kirchner]

MEDIA_TIMEOUT is used to determine how long it will wait between
retrying a DNS lookup.

Would there be any objection to modifying the defaults sysinstall to
lower its default MEDIA_TIMEOUT from 300 seconds to something more
like 10, and then increasing the retry count from 2 to 30? The net
result should be that it would wait just as long (5 minutes) before
accepting a total failure, but it should retry often enough that two
transient failures (for whatever reason they may occur) won't cause
the installation to fail entirely, and it could help make sysinstall
just slightly more user-friendly.

(This is particularly an issue because if it cannot look up the
hostname, sysinstall will allow you to try to restart the process, but
it will then try to install the OS on the ramdisk, or do other broken
things: bin/42162 from 2002)

The only problem is that linuxthreads doesn't exist on FreeBSD/amd64. 
You have to use one of the native thread libraries.

Your choices on 5.4 are not that great.  I'd suggest libthr on 6.0 as 
the closest match to linuxthreads, but I don't recall if it is 
available on 5.4.  I have a feeling it isn't.  I have a feeling your 
choices are libc_r or libpthread (kse).  libpthread should smoke libc_r 
for disk IO performance in general.  But modern libthr (on 6.0+) should 
give it a serious run for its money.

Please! Not all readers are native enlish speaking, it sounds nice but it 
doesn't help clarifying anything. I guess libthr is the favourite choice 
but I only guess since I never heard of smoking thread libraries nor of 
"run for money". I'm suffering from the list's english enough, please 
don't use phrases... :)

I need to mount a msdos partition on from is FreeBSD 5.4 fixit 
floppy(this machine doesn't have a CD Drive :\), but when I run the command:

mount -t msdos /dev/da0 /mnt/usb-msd
I get:
mount: exec mount_msdos not found in /sbin:/usr/sbin: No such file or 
directory.


Where could I go to get this binary?
Could I pull it off of another FreeBSD machine I have kicking around or 
will the machine running fixit get angry at me?

Looking for other UNIONFS users ...

[Marc G. Fournier]

As some of you may know, FreeBSD 6.x's UNIONFS is *seriously* broken due 
to some major changes to the VFS required for SMP (all good advances, but 
for those of us using UNIONFS, we're kinda stuck) ...


I've been talking to one developer that would be interested in fixing 
UNIONFS, but do to the # of bugs that existed *before* the VFS changes, 
the "fix" is going to involve a complete re-write, instead of just adding 
more bandaids and patches.


So, my first question is how many ppl are out there that are using UNIONFS 
and would be interested in co-funding a rewrite of it so that its fixed 
"once and for all"?

Only a little.  Do you have udbp(4) in your kernel?  
Can you try booting 6.0 with the flash unit plugged in and see if it
still has problems?

thanks to all.
you are right kris, i did what you expected.  worse was that any command
produced core dump in single user mode.
the last one was sh exited on signal 12 (cored dump)
i simply responded with install 5.4 to that machine anew.
i took 25 hours 50 minutes in building world and now begin buildkernel.
that is a very old 90MHz machine from bb though.

anyway, thanks so much for all of your response and your times.

I've been benchmarking this on a dual opteron 246 server. mysql 4.1.x and

than pthreads. There's a thread about this on [EMAIL PROTECTED]

At least one CCL allows no derivation under any terms, which would at
least raise an issue, I'd hope.  I'm not aware of any CCLs in FreeBSD
other than the two GNU licenses (but I haven't looked for others).

> I'm not sure who he should ask if they want that; releng@ ?

From
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/committers-guide/pref-license.html

The FreeBSD project discourages completely new licenses and
variations on the standard licenses. New licenses require the
approval of <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> to reside in the main
repository. The more different licenses that are used in the tree,
the more problems that this causes to those wishing to utilize
this code, typically from unintended consequences from a poorly
worded license.

I doubt if no-commercial-use licenses would be approved for use in the
base OS, because of the previously-mentioned sale of CDROMs.

Re: Fwd: Re: music on FreeBSD

[Gary W. Swearingen]

I've had a few more thoughts on the matter.

If "core" wants the music and the only question is licensing, maybe
core and you could agree on a custom license which allows anyone to
copy it unmodified (which must include being copied as a single file
from any web site) or including it unmodified in a compilation or
other derivative work (eg, FreeBSD), but not if that work consists
predominately of music.  It would be easier if you could just allow
all uses in unmodified form (I think there's such a CCL), and better
if you could allow generic translations of digital format.

OTOH, I'm guessing core could find someone to donate some music under
a BSD-type license, without a lot of effort.  Or get some
non-proprietary music off an out-of-copyright record or movie which is
probably on the web somewhere already.

I could try it, but I don't want to have to roll 6.0 back to 5.4 
afterward if it doesn't work.  Upgrading to 6.0 is a major change and I 
only have 1 PC.  I am still kind of a novice, how easy is it to upgrade 
to 6.0 and how stable is it?  I see that I have the line with udbp 
commented out in my kernel config.  Should I rebuild with it uncommented?

You can't.  FreeBSD uses a one way hash to encode the passwords.  If you

You can't view their passwords unless you (or they) saved them in a database 
(which you (they) should really NOT). 

To change a user's passwod without making a new account, use the 'passwd'

I don't know if I can be much help, as I haven't used xine or vlc, or
portmanager. What I would do in your case is run 'ktrace -i -d vlc'
(along with whatever other arguments) to trace the process and its
dependencies, and then run 'kdump' to view the trace (the output will
be enormous). You might see something interesting near the end, like a
file not found that it was expecting, or it opening a file just prior
to dumping core. It may be possible the other programs would have the
same last few lines.

This is generic advice, I'm afraid, and may not even be valid in this
case. But who knows.

Thinkpad wireless problem

[Matt Juszczak]

Hi all,

My thinkpad wifi card is being a bit odd...

When I do this:

ifconfig wi0 wepmode on ssid  wepkey 0x1231231234 up

It shows status as "associated", and a tcpdump shows activity on the 
network, but I can't ping anywhere nor can I get anywhere (of course I 
set an IP manually and also do a route add default 192.168.0.1 to add 
the default gateway).


When I disable wep on the router, and do:

ifconfig wi0 wepmode off ssid  up

it works fine.  I can run dhclient wi0, etc. all works fine.


So something is up with wep on this IBM Thinkpad T23 internal wireless 
card.  Any ideas?


Maybe I'm being dumb, but the laptop says the key is a 40 bit wep key 
while the router says its a 64 bit hex... although I think these are 
identical because one is decimal and one is hex, correct?  Or is this 
where my problem is?


Regards,

Matt

Yes, but that doesn't mean its save. You could install a port called
portupgrade and use the util portsclean. This wil clean your working

Subject: about linux emulation


Is it possible to chroot into a fully functional linux environment on
freebsd?

--
Hi Antoine,

I don't know if this fully answers your question as I barely understand the 
chroot process myself. I wanted to install Coldfusion on FreeBSD (Ain't 
gonna work but I tried). First it complained about FreeBSD not being 
supported so I'm like yah so. But what next? I was putzing around someplace 
and found something that went in the lines like this

chroot /compat/linux/ /bin/bash

And to my surprise I was chrooted. I then re-ran the install process for 
Coldfusion and it didn't complain until the very end where it said can't 
find 'ps' and some other little gizmo (I think it was top). I was bummed 
because it seems that ps and top are not part of the linux emulation. 
Admittedly I'm using linux_base-rh-7.3. But anyway I was chrooted. One last 
thing in the path there is also a linux chroot. So my guess is that you 
could chroot with success but wont know until you use some application that 
requires some missing element, in my case 'ps' and 'top.'

Hope that helps.

I don't know if I can be much help, as I haven't used xine or vlc, or
portmanager. What I would do in your case is run 'ktrace -i -d vlc'
(along with whatever other arguments) to trace the process and its
dependencies, and then run 'kdump' to view the trace (the output will
be enormous). You might see something interesting near the end, like a
file not found that it was expecting, or it opening a file just prior
to dumping core. It may be possible the other programs would have the
same last few lines.

This is generic advice, I'm afraid, and may not even be valid in this
case. But who knows.

 


David,
Ok, I sent the logs to you but the list rejected it.  I couldn't find 
anything in there that looked useful.  Could this possibly have 
something to do with the video card I'm running?  I'm running a Radeon 
9200 SE 256 MB.


Ian,
What kind of card are you running?

Thanks

Your forgetting that natd changes the destation ip address so that it is
not me. Try putting the block rule before the divert. This is also good
for performance.

finally test a page the sheet of paper gets fed and
looks like it starts printing and then everything
freezes on my printer or it completely shuts down and
it only turn on if I pull the plug.  I'm using
FBSD5.4.  Has anyone ever had this problem?

What it's doing there is checking the library path to try and find the
requested library -- it does eventually find it, so that's OK. What
this ktrace shows is that the dump occurs before anything else goes on
-- ie just after loading the initial set of libraries it does
something not related to a system call (like mishandling a pointer). I
hate to suggest this, especially since you've had world built for so
long without trouble, but maybe a freshly updated world would help?
libstdc++ hasn't been updated in quite a while, but libm has had some
radical changes made to it, it seems. It may not actually mean
anything specific, though.

I'm stuck at this point, I think. I don't know a lot about the X
server internals or the drivers (specifically to the Radeon question).
Might be best just to downgrade the port rather than mess around with
something as big as rebuilding the entire world.

Please, cc the mailing list unless your problem is
purely between you and me.

Before I start answering your questions, let me give
you some advice.

1. Don't do check-state, unless you really need
(and have configured) a stateful firewall

2. Use "xmit" and "recv" instead of "via" whenever
possible. In your case rule 300 should contain
"in recv" and the next one - "out xmit".

3. A much better way to pass loopback traffic is:
"allow ip from any to any via lo0"
"deny ip from any to 127.0.0.0/8"
"deny ip from 127.0.0.0/8 to any"
(these should usually be at the very top)

4. It's a wonder that your rule 900 somehow
allows dhcp to work. It certainly shouldn't.
Dhcp requires much less restrictive rules
(including broadcasts and undefined source).

5. You must always keep in mind that any
communication between a server and a
client requires packet to go both ways,
sometimes passing firewall 2 times in
each direction. Your rule 1000 only allows
dns queries to get through to the dns server,
the corresponding answers will be blocked.
I suppose that rule 1050 or 1200 solves the
problem, but if you want to restrict traffic
you should come up with something else.
Same goes for your rule 1100: you block
all the http answers.

6. Sad, but true, you can never rely on MAC-
bindings security in a production network.
MAC address is as easily spoofed as
anything. Moreover, ipfw has not been
designed for layer-2 packet inspection, so
you'll stumble upon many problems and
unexpected results.
You'd better come up with a VPN/IPSec
solution.


Cheerz,
Andrew P.

php4 sessions not built by default?

[Garrett Cooper]

Just trying to access some session variables via the PHP4 and  
for some odd reason it doesn't appear as if the function exists. Is  
this not built in PHP4 by default? And if so, how may I remedy the  
issue?

Thanks,
-Garrett
