dump -L not working as expected?

2005-10-10 Thread Victor Sudakov
Colleagues,

I dump an active filesystem on a FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p7 with the -L
option. dump says:

Dumping snapshot of /dev/mirror/gm1s1h (/home) to ...

However when I later restore -r the filesystem, I keep getting messages
like 

./www/data/ASN/bay_3.log: (inode 805993) not found on tape
expected next file 23553, got 6
expected next file 805964, got 805963
expected next file 806010, got 806009

Why is that? 

I am used to seeing such messages on FreeBSD 4.x and earlier systems,
but I thought I would never see them again when dumping a snapshot.

Thanks in advance for any input.

Subject: Re: unexplained system hangs - possible smbfs issue ??

Murray,
 Have you thought of looking into filing a bug report with the  
Samba people (http://www.samba.org/)? This may be an issue with  
either your client program, or the SMB implementation in Win2k3,  
which can be solved by getting the ball rolling with SMB and/or  
possibly MS.
 Either way, that is quite a few files to have to parse through,  
and although it may seem somewhat ludicrous, adding an additional  
script to presort out your minute reports would greatly reduce the  
amount of open-file records you need, and while that may not be a  
permanent solution it can serve as a better base for sorting your  
data. You could just create proper directories on the Win2k3 server,  
like %BASE_DIR%\Year\Day\Hour, if you get a large volume of files, or  
just strictly put them in a daily directory since it sounds like your  
volume is manageable. Plus, it's probably easier for humans to manage  
as opposed to 2000+ flat files in the same directory ;). Any SQL  
would handle this issue nicely as well since one of databases' best  
selling points is this type of application.

Garrett,

Thanks for your input, as it all ties things up with the observed
problem
which we have been slowly closing in on by a process of isolating
processes onto a 'sacrifical' host. 

BTW it still seems to be a bit time dependant, unless the 
comments regarding the extra files of zero length mentioned in other
replies and PR's apply here. Our test bed _never_ crashed under high
load testing
(20K+ files grown incrementally).  Maybe the test bed always had
'appropriate'
files and/or file structures. (sigh)

(really silly thought - I wonder if it is as 'simple' as needing 
an even / odd file count when the count gets high?? )

A 'move_files to dated directory' process is being built within the main
process as a final 
operation for cleanup. This will mean that the smbfs will never have
more than
10 files or so in any given 1 minute cycle.

cheers
mjt

Errors like this are usually caused by your  system date being wrong. 
The files that you built are older and make thinks it must do something

distcc and cross-compiling for FreeBSD on Linux/Solaris

2005-10-10 Thread Andrew P.
We've got some mostly idle, but powerful sparc64
servers running Solaris 9/10, as well as a host of
Linux servers (x86 and x86_64). Of course, all the
real work is done on a pack of FreeBSD boxes :-)

Some days ago I started using ccache and distcc,
and I really love these tools. Now I want to get the
Solaris and Linux servers to do something useful
and compile world, kernels and ports for the
FreeBSD boxes. Is there a somewhat
comprehensive guide to this? Can somebody
share his experience with me? I'm now looking
into crosstool how-to's, but I have no knowledge
of gcc intrinsics, and some points are very hard
for me to understand.

Good luck with that effort. Not to treat it as the feat is  
entirely impossible, but I'm not sure how you would approach it  
without using GNU lib stuff since linux runs via GNU libs whereas  
FreeBSD uses their own libc package. Not only that, you would have to  
have equivalent compiling tools, have the libs compiled for multiple  
archs, etc. It's a fairly large project that many companies are  
actually working on right now for making into reality since computing  
clusters are becoming so prevalent nowadays.
Anyhow... not impossible (well, maybe for the kernel end of  
things, but not some of the packages in world or ports), but good  
luck ;)!

Dual Opteron / FreeBSD 5 6 / powerd results in hard hangs

2005-10-10 Thread Justin Suyk

Hi,

We have a dual Opteron server which supports the PowerNow technology and 
that technology we want to use to save unneeded power. For that reason 
we are trying to get powerd and cpufreq going, but we are running in a 
lot of troubles when we ennable the powerd program. Under 5.4 RELEASE 
and stable hard hangs are occuring just 2 seconds after enabling powerd 
and under FreeBSD 6 the machines hangs after about a minute or two.


Under 5.4 we noticed that only one of the CPU was triggerd by powerd, 
and thus resulting in a hard crash because the other CPU was still 
running full speed. Under 6 that was fixed, the two CPU's were seen as 
one CPU by powerd and so the trigger to run on an lower clockspeed was 
picked up by the Opterons. But after 2 minutes the machine hangs again.


What can be the problem here?

Thanx in advance,

Justin.

There is an older one:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2004-September/008112.html

Web interface located here (as stated in that post):

http://svn.clkao.org/svnweb/freebsd/log/cvs/

However, I think clkao stopped updating it?

FWIW, I think Subversion would be stable enough, but no-one's gone through
the trouble of converting the CVS repository while preserving the project's
history. I tried to using cvs2svn about a year back but ran into some
snags, and I've never found the time to retry now that cvs2svn is improved.

you should load the sound kernel first. Go to /boot/loader.conf, add the two 
lines as follow:
sound_load=YES
sound_ich_load=YES

then the sound card should work for you. Good luck!

Apsfilter problem

2005-10-10 Thread E. J. Cerejo
Since my FBSD5.4 reinstallation I can't get my HP
Deskjet 842c to print.  I didn't have any problems
with it before  I configured it exactly the way it was
before and now I start printing it starts feeding the
first sheet and when it starts printing the first line
it just shuts down my printer.  Does anyone know how
to fix this?

I'm running the latest version of apsfilter.

If you were evaluating Subversion then it is stable enough to handle big

the migration rather than the package ourself.  When we migrated from

I just finished migrating our (small, miniscule compared to FBSD's CVS) 
repository from cvs to svn and it went without a hitch. *MUCH* simpler 
and faster than vss to svn. (vss-svn: managed to import the history 
though with some issues with new lines (win32 to win32 conversion, so no 
idea what was the problem).). Maybe because cvs2svn is in Python and 
vss2svn is a Perl beast?


Anyway, is anyone interested in porting (or having it ported) the cvs 
repository to svn? maybe running both in paralell (cvs rw, svn ro, i 
figure).


what amount of traffic would be expected for this kind of svn server?

Before you do that:

Correct.  It only builds the one package.  Also, consider

Have you looked at

It hints that you need to install a gcc that was built for your target 
system on all machines that you're using.  I think distcc handles 
library inconsitencies for you (at least it claims that you need not 
have the same libraries installed on all machines).

 Good luck with that effort. Not to treat it as the feat is
 entirely impossible, but I'm not sure how you would approach it
 without using GNU lib stuff since linux runs via GNU libs whereas
 FreeBSD uses their own libc package.

Distcc takes care to only pass preprocessed source to remote hosts, and
only distributes source-object compile requests, so you don't need
FreeBSD headers or libraries on the other systems; just a
cross-compiler.  I can't help with setting up cross-compilers, but
since there's a FAQ entry on it (
http://distcc.samba.org/faq.html#cross-compile ), doing what you want
is certainly possible.

Server compilation or hardware problem?!

2005-10-10 Thread arunas . tamulevicius
Hello,

I would like to ask some questions. I have the intranet system on my
computer which is running freeBSD. But functionality of the system is
quite slow. So I don't know what is wrong. My server contains 1GHZ
procesor and 256+128RAM. Is it enough? System is used aproximately 300
users. I can define that every time maybe 5-8 users are log in. So the
problem is in the compilation or in hardware?

Thank you very much.

but it isn't necessary changing the printing command. MOZ_PRINTER_NAME

Seting this string to lp some-other-lp-name solves the problem,

Two soundcards for two independent sound programs?

2005-10-10 Thread Rob

Hi,

I wonder if this is possible:

With two soundcards in my system, can I configure
the system such that each soundcard plays different
music? For example,my mp3 player sends its music
to soundcard one, while my realaudio radio station
is played over soundcard two.

It all doesn't sound too crazy to me, or is it?
Or do two soundcards in one system bite each other?

Cheers,
Rob.

 You can have IPFW and IPF active at the same time, yes.
 

So I am assuming because IPFW is built into the kernel with a default to

my rc.conf to have IPFIREWALL_ENABLE=NO?

  
  If you're going to switch to using IPF, you might want to consider  
  upgrading or reinstalling the OS  to 5.4 instead of 4.11.
  
 
 Are there any particular reasons why you suggest switching 
 from 4.11 to 
 5.4 if going from IPFW to IPF? Because I have just converted 
 from IPFW2

 I did notice that IPF appears to be a rather old version. 
 3.something, 
 where the latest version of IPF is 4.something. Is this the reason?

There is no formal support for this.  Nor is there likely to be, given
the number of different approaches taken by different third-party

 So I am assuming because IPFW is built into the kernel with a default to

 my rc.conf to have IPFIREWALL_ENABLE=NO?


IPFW can be compiled static into the kernel, or it can be loaded as a
module.  My understanding is that when loading as a module, default
deny is your only option.  If you compile into the kernel with
options IPFFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT then you get the obvious
results.  This is all in the handbook by the way:

is played over soundcard two.

It all doesn't sound too crazy to me, or is it?
Or do two soundcards in one system bite each other?


I've got two soundcards.
I let artsd manage one and leave the other for other programs.
In other words it kinda works: not every app lets you choose which card

I just wish artsd would manage both...

 Thanks. The problem is it is on a production machine that I can not have down

You can add an ipfw rule (#1 for instance) allowing all traffic.
However if you use other protocols besides IP on your network, this
might have unexpected side effects.  My understanding is that the
default deny policy drops everything that isn't IP traffic, and there
is no way to allow it using rules at that point.  Someone please
correct me if I'm wrong.  A default accept policy with a deny all
rule functions similarly, still allowing all non IP traffic.  If you
don't forsee this causing problems, you should be fine with a single
allow all rule until your change window arrives.

Back not so long ago in the 4.8/4.9 days, we had a box
that was probably built in the 2.X or 3.X days, running
-STABLE in a remote, unattended location that would
reboot every morning between 3-4 a.m. or so.

When we finally got to where it was to check on it,
we found that the CPU fan had quit running some
time previously.

I have no idea why it didn't just burn up the processor;
apparently, the only hard work it did was tar'ring up
its files for backup every morning, which it did via
cron starting at 3:05 a.m.

It would then happily reboot and do all of its chores
until backup time again the next morning.

All this anecdotal stuff to say that monitoring your
system temperature remotely, if possible, might be
a good thing to do, in case it gave you some clues.

Unfortunately, it's pretty hardware specific, as one
might expect.

Have you looked at http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/ 
projects/other/distcc-31.0.81/linuxdoc/html/distcc-5.html
It hints that you need to install a gcc that was built for your  
target system on all machines that you're using.  I think distcc  
handles library inconsitencies for you (at least it claims that you  
need not have the same libraries installed on all machines).


HTH,
Micah


IIRC, I think that the libraries are needed, but are semi- 
modular in the sense that all that you need to do is grab the libs  
and make sure your compiler is equivalent (ie no mixing gcc with cc,  
etc), and include the libs in your compilation. Not sure how you are  
going to grab the libs for FreeBSD though without possibly CVSup'ing  
the source, which I'm not saying is impossible-just a minute pain.  
So, in essence I may have been a bit too pessimistic about the task.
I didn't really get into the subject of distcc though I suppose  
and should have read a bit more in-depth articles earlier. I was just  
exploring instruction sets for compiling via the similar architecture  
for a LAN distcc farm, but gave up after realizing there were far too  
many clients with differing archs from my own, and the benefit wasn't  
worth my time since it was all for charity.

In reply to: Subject: Re: What are the likely causes of reboots?

2005-10-10 Thread Gorski, Jim
Paul,

 

I had a similar problem a few weeks ago - mine was a failing hard drive.

 

While I am not a guru, I do know that you can add a swap *file* as a new
swap

device and then disable the other swap partition without rebooting.

 

This doesn't help you down the road too far, but it can solve your
250/1024 problem.

ace.html

 

Hope this helps,

Jim Gorski

Dynamic symlink?

2005-10-10 Thread Brian Candler
Are there any clever tricks you can do such that a filesystem access to /tmp
is transparently redirected to /home/user/tmp ?

(Reason: Web server cluster. Many scripts expect to be able to store session
data in /tmp. Don't want to have a free-for-all NFS mount for /tmp)

Something which looks like a symlink with a dynamic target depending on the
uid of the person who reads it is the sort of thing I'm looking for.

Thanks,

Brian.

You could probably use amd's hlfsd to do this, or make sure that
$TMPDIR is set correctly before launching the script, and force
everyone to use $TMPDIR instead of hardcoding /tmp in their scripts.

If you like being up-to-date, you should consider
using portsnap, which is much more efficient than
cvsup. You can update every other couple of hours
then - and you'll probably waste less bandwidth
in a week than you would with cvsup in one run.



Portsnap certainly is more efficient than cvsup for
frequent updating, but for most people, updating the
ports tree every 2 hours is rather pointless.  On my
6.0-beta systems, I have a nightly cron job which runs

  portsnap -I cron update  pkg_version -vIL=



colin,
what is this I parameter to pkg_version supposed to be?
i don't seem to have it here on 5.4R.

which downloads updates, builds new ports INDEX files,
and emails me a list of installed packages which are
out of date.

When I get such an email, I log into the system and run

  portsnap update  portupgrade -a

which updates the ports tree and rebuilds the installed
packages which are out of date.

Between FreeBSD Update, portsnap, and portupgrade, I
doubt I spend more than half an hour per month keeping
each system up to date.

It's a new flag in 6.0R; it means just use the INDEX, you stupid

Without that flag, pkg_version tries to be intelligent -- it will
go into each port directory and run /usr/bin/make -V PKGNAME in
order to work out exactly what version of the port is in the tree,
and will only use the INDEX if that fails.

Unfortunately, running make(1) repeatedly makes pkg_version about
50 times slower than if it just uses the INDEX file; so if you know
that the INDEX is up to date (which will be the case if you use
portsnap), the -I option makes pkg_version much faster.

Put a separate disk on and dump to that.
Or constrain the kernel to less memory than you have in your swap area.

ISDN terminal adapter

2005-10-10 Thread Kep Woof
Heya,

i need to get an ISDN terminal adapter working asap under freebsd. can
anyone recommend one that just works? i've used a usr courier ta in the
past (with an rs232 connection), but they don't seem to make the isdn model
anymore. when i did it before i used userland ppp. is that still the way to
go for dial on demand dialup?

i've been trying to get an hayes accurar ISDN terminal adapter (that works
fine bonded on a BT ISDN line in the UK) to work on FreeBSD. when i plugs it
in it identifies as:

ugen0: ISDN USB TA . rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2.

suspecting it really needed to be coming up on ucom0 or somesuch, i tried
using kldload to load some usb related drivers: uftdi. ubsa, ubser, uplcom
and umct. would that work, when it had already been detected on ugen? i
guessed that loading the modules would have the same effect as, and be
quicker than, rebuilding the kernel. was this a correct assumption? am i on
the right track, or barking up the wrong tree?

any other ideas? i'm currently using the windows machine with internet
connection sharing, so am really desperate for any help!

thanks!

Overburned DVD data recovery

2005-10-10 Thread mrideout
Hi,

I have a cron job that backs up a FreeBSD server's files to DVD+RW media
each evening using growisofs from the dvd+rw-tools port. There are some
files that I need to recover, but the problem is, the last 2 weeks of
backups were a few hundred megabytes too large, and overburned.

Is there any way to recover data from these overburned DVDs? I tried
mounting them from FreeBSD, Windows and Mac systems without success. I
also tried running cat /dev/acd0 | gzip  data.iso.gz in an attempt to
grab the raw bits of the disk, but that only resulted in an input/output
error.

Restoring a 2-week-old backup is an option, but any ideas on how I might
read data off of these overburned disks would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Matt

If that last is true (still a newbie), then why on God's Green

When you run -CURRENT, you're generally expected to be

some limited way

Did you read /src/UPDATING, for starters?

  Currenly, on their suggestion, we are using
 /etc/libmap.conf entry of 
  libpthread.solibthr.so
  libpthread.co.1  libthr.so.1
  
  Which seems backwards to what people on here have
 recommended. But seemed to help but we are still
 crashing at least once a day sometimes more.
 
 
  Any pointers, tips etc quite welcomed.
 
  Thanks!

I was reading where some of the system libraries were changed going to 
6.x. So, did you rebuild your ports?

X keyboard troubles

2005-10-10 Thread jmulkerin
Running 5.4-RELEASE and X version 8.6.2 and kds 3.4 desktop on a Toshiba 
Teca M1.My typing isn't the best and X is making it worse.  It adds 
a character at random. Very frustrating.   For example, I try to type 
/var/log/snort and it comes out /vvar/log/snoort.  I know its X cause it 
didn't do it before starting X and it did it before I added kde.  Any 
suggestions?


Thanks

mini kernel

2005-10-10 Thread fbsd
I'm trying to follow the instructions on the backup-basics page to create a 
kernel.  And, the mini kernel config isn't working for me.  

Does anyone have a kernel config suitable for a disaster recovery floppy that 
they could share with me?

I'm running 4.10 RELEASE.

 Actually I was referring to something more graphical.

 cd /usr/ports/database/mysqlcc

 Graphical, and officially from MySQL AB.

 For the list archives, i just got this link (from the PostgreSQL
 weekly newsletter):

 http://www.rekallrevealed.org

 written in python, with drivers for mysql, postgresql under gpl, other
 DBs available commercially.

 I noticed this reference to mysqlcc on their site:

 mysqlcc is deprecated and it is recommended that users choose the
 new MySQL Administrator and MySQL Query Browser, found at
 http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/.

Correct.  MySQL Administrator is in the Ports Collection
(/usr/ports/database/mysql-administrator).  MySQL Query Browser has
not been ported yet; if somebody's interested, I for one would really
like to see it there.

Can you please explain what you do and what happens (output,etc)? If you 
dont provide enough information about the problem, hardly anyone is 
going to spend time trying to guess what the problem is, and how to fix it.

RE: ISDN terminal adapter

2005-10-10 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt
If you want a USR Courier external I-modem I'll sell you one cheap.

The best way to do ISDN is to use an ISDN router like an Ascend Pipeline
or some such.

Subject: ISDN terminal adapter


Heya,

i need to get an ISDN terminal adapter working asap under freebsd. can
anyone recommend one that just works? i've used a usr courier 
ta in the
past (with an rs232 connection), but they don't seem to make 
the isdn model
anymore. when i did it before i used userland ppp. is that 
still the way to
go for dial on demand dialup?

i've been trying to get an hayes accurar ISDN terminal adapter 
(that works
fine bonded on a BT ISDN line in the UK) to work on FreeBSD. 
when i plugs it
in it identifies as:

ugen0: ISDN USB TA . rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2.

suspecting it really needed to be coming up on ucom0 or 
somesuch, i tried
using kldload to load some usb related drivers: uftdi. ubsa, 
ubser, uplcom
and umct. would that work, when it had already been detected on ugen? i
guessed that loading the modules would have the same effect as, and be
quicker than, rebuilding the kernel. was this a correct 
assumption? am i on
the right track, or barking up the wrong tree?

any other ideas? i'm currently using the windows machine with internet
connection sharing, so am really desperate for any help!

thanks!

RE: RAID monitoring

2005-10-10 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt

What does Mylex say?

It might occur to some people that hardware companies have no incentive
to write FreeBSD drivers if the people who use their products NEVER
ASK FOR THEM!

Just a thought.

AaaarrrGGGH. linuxpluginrapper and linux-mozilla.

2005-10-10 Thread Gary Kline

Sorry for the outburst in subject, but I've been having these
problems
with linux-mozilla for several days:



LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library libXt.so [libXt.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory]
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library libXext.so [libXext.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory]
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/home/kline/.mozilla/plugins/mplayerplug-in.so
[/home/kline/.mozilla/plugins/mplayerplug-in.so: ELF file OS ABI invalid]


Are linux-mozilla and regular FreeBSD mozilla mutually exclusive?
Once, I had mplayer-plugin working so that I was actually able
to listen to a Windows audio player.  

Anybody?
