cvsup, mirrors and data integrity

[Andrew P.]

So I have a cvsup mirror, set up with net/cvsup-mirror
port. It was ok until the server crashed (all my fault,
really) and fsck came up with all that soft-updates
related stuff and what not.

Anyway, cvsup-mirror seems to not have noticed
the crash at all, but some clients cvsupping from
this mirror report unexpected syntax errors
during buildworld. They cease to do so once
cvsupped from another mirror, but only if I remove
src completely before it. Cvsupping the broken
sources against the good ones doesn't find a
mistake at all.

My question is: what mechanisms do cvsup and
cvsupd have to deal with data corruption? I know
about the -s switch, but it doesn't help to disable
it in my situation. How do I repair broken sources
or repo, using a good cvsup repo. How do I prevent
this from happening again without disabling soft-
updates?

Thanks,
Andrew P.

Xorg and unichrome

[Chris]

Hi all,

I just got me a VIA EPIA SP800E and I can't seem to
get X to work. I've googled around some, but I haven't
managed to find a sure answer on the FreeBSD support
for the graphics cards in these things.

Some hardware info:
- VIA CN400 North Bridge
- Integrated VIA UniChrome™Pro AGP graphics with
MPEG-2 decoder /MPEG-4 Accelerator

I've had a quick look at the unichrome project on
sourceforge, but only found questions regarding the
status of drivers for FreeBSD and no answers. Note:
I'm running 6.0-RC1 right now, but I'm willing to try
any other version if it would help me get X working

If anyone has experience with the unichrome drivers,
please let me know how things went or at least where I
can find some detailed information on how to use these
under BSD (or if you think I can get it running with
some other drivers). Last time I played with linux
drivers under FreeBSD, things went very bad, so I'm
not doing that "unsupervised" again :)

BR,
   Chris

First of all, I haven't developed any serious thing for
any OS. As a matter of fact, I haven't written anything
in C/C++ in five years. But in the absence of a better
reply - this is my response.

I think that the best way to get involved into the
FreeBSD project is to install the OS on your desktop,
use it on your servers, help others on mailing lists,
write some ports (as an active user you'll have to do
that sooner or later), preen through pr-database
trying to find solutions, submit many patches, become
a committer - and there you are: involved.

There's a lot of reading on writing good code. Drivers
are quite a narrow field, but you can't begin to write
them without understanding how almost everything
else works. Writing a driver demands a more
comprehensive understanding of OS intrinsics than
most of other aspects. You'll definitely want to
work on other parts of kernel code before going on
to drivers.

Looking at the source of drivers for other systems
actually helps very very much. It's much easier to
port a driver, say, from OpenBSD than it is from
Linux, but you don't have to port anything. I bet
that reading a driver written for Solaris, HP-UX
or any other system will provide you with some
nice ideas that can be used in FreeBSD.

You can read as many books as you like, but
nothing will do you more good than reading
and understanding thoroughly a few existing
drivers.

Re: cvsup, mirrors and data integrity

[Dimitar Vasilev]

Andrew,
cvsup is an application that deals with giving people files.
It is the job of fsck to check and clear the FS.
Check /etc/defaults/rc.conf and
add the following variables to your rc.conf
fsck_y_enable="YES"
background_fsck="NO"
It has been discussed zilion of times and it works.
I recommend also wiping your repository and syncing from scratch from
the master servers.

Quotas not working on FreeBSD 5.4 for amd64

[MELVIN D. NAVA]

Good Afternoon, this is my first post ever to this list and I hope is the 
right place...


Recently (three weeks ago) I bought one dedicated server with FreeBSD 
5.4-release for amd64 and I haven't been able to use quotas, after I tried 
to enable quotas in fstab over the home filesystem and rebooting, the system 
just hanged so I checked if quota was enabled on the Kernel but it wasn't... 
So I asked at the Datacenter and they told me they tried initially to enable 
quotas on the Kernel but it wasn't working at all and the server wouldn't 
start.


I've been trying to find something like this already documented but I 
haven't found anything at all.


My server config:

FreeBSD 5.4-release for amd64
Cpanel/WHM
Dual Opteron 244, 2GB of ECC Ram and two SATA Drives

My questions:

1. Anyone knows about or had already this problem? is this normal?
2. Should I try to compile the kernel myself with quotas?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Melvin D. Nava

Well, what if I already had those lines in my rc.conf,
what if fsck fixed everyting it found and what if it
doesn't work.

I'm quite sure that wiping and resyncing the whole
repo will help, it's that I don't want to do that every
time a partiotion was not unmounted properly.

Any ideas at all?

Thanks,
Andrew P.

Brilliant!

That's far better than the one I came up with to deal with a similar 
situation :-)  I loaded them all, checked it worked, then commented out half 
to see which half of the list the "working" one was in.  Rinse and repeat 
until only one is left.

It didn't take too long but your's is much better :-)

A little less permanent, but just for the build, it would be a

+pid 48635 (squid), uid 100: exited on signal 6 (core dumped)

[eculp]

I'm seeing 4 Current servers that were running squid with no problems 
now dumping core with the following error in the log file.


+pid 48635 (squid), uid 100: exited on signal 6 (core dumped)

I have no idea where to begin looking.  I went to the squid list and 
saw where it was caused by persistent connections on some platforms so 
I turned them off and there was no change.


All the machines are running up to date ports, with kernel and userland 
no more that a week old and it includes Intel and amd processors.  Two 
boxes have multiple processors so it doesn't seem to be a hardware 
problem.


Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanx anyway :-)

SNMP in FreeBSD server

The story is that the first time I installed samba I
enabled it in my /etc/rc.conf writting 

"echo " smbd" && /usr/local/sbin/smbd -D
echo " nmbd" && /usr/local/sbin/nmbd -D " 

I don't know if this has sth to do with the fact I was
getting the mail I included previously, all the time. 
Also, when I dmesg, I was gotting this :

pid 70515 (smbd), uid 1003: exited on signal 6
pid 70524 (smbd), uid 1003: exited on signal 6
pid 70535 (smbd), uid 1003: exited on signal 6

So I deinstalled samba.  But I still gotted the mails
(the same as the one above).  I think that might be
because of the rc.conf.  
So now that I 've istalled it again I edited rc.conf
and have only this line concerning samba:

#enable samba
samba_enable="YES"

I do not get this often mails, but still I do. 
Does anybody have a clue about this?

Spen

I'm running mrtg myself, and I remember having some problem with snmpd 
when I installed it. you should have a config file in /usr/local/etc/ 
named snmpd.conf and it should look something like this: 
http://fstaals.net/junk/snmpd.conf . I can't remember anymore if I had 
to change anything else, but I think that should be it.


Good Luck

ntpd problems

[Shelby Westman]

Hello, all,

I am a relatively new freeBSD user. The problem I describe below happens on
both a 5.4 install and a 6.0 RC1 install.

Right after installing the OS, I enable ntpd in rc.conf, and setup a simple
config file in /etc/ntp.conf. When I reboot, I get this message:

Oct 22 10:40:57 alter ntpd[392]: ntpd 4.2.0-a Sun Oct 9 18:33:33 UTC 2005
(1)
Oct 22 10:40:57 alter ntpd[392]: bind() fd 6, family 28, port 123, addr
fe80:1::202:55ff:fe58:2957, in6_is_addr_multicast=0 flags=0 fails: Can't
assign requested address

Then ntpd does not synchronize the time. I set the clock manually (using
date) five minutes ahead to check and in fact it does not get adjusted.

I have tried all sorts of things. I tried assigning numeric addresses rather
than host names in the config file. I tried enabling ipv6 in sysinstall.
This machine does have a good route to the internet - I can use nslookup to
resolve host names, so I know the networking is working.

Below I have quoted the ntp.conf. The log file is empty - nothing is being
written there.

Does anyone have any ideas? I am stumped... thanks for your help.

Shelby

That depends on a lot of things.  Important patches often get considered in a 
day or two, ones that are big/complex/etc may take longer.  Security issues are 
also considered at a high priority.


It helps to CC: someone responsible for the thing being patched, if there is 
such a person.  In particular, patches sent to a port maintained by nobody can 
sit for weeks or even months.  :-)


If you're looking for additional insight, local conventions seem to suggest 
that one should wait a week after submitting a patch, and then ask about it 
mentioning the PR #.  This gives maintainers who are away on a business trip, 
vacation, or other aspects of RealJob/RealLife(tm) adequate time to review the PR.


If the PR sits for longer than 1 month, bring it up again as a maintainer 
timeout, if appropriate (ie, a PR about updating a port), or send a short email 
with the PR # and a description of the issue to one of the higher-level 
channels like releng, portmgr, etc.

Re: Quotas not working on FreeBSD 5.4 for amd64

Recently (three weeks ago) I bought one dedicated server with FreeBSD
5.4-release for amd64 and I haven't been able to use quotas, after I tried

So I asked at the Datacenter and they told me they tried initially to enable
quotas on the Kernel but it wasn't working at all and the server wouldn't
start.


1. Make sure your kernel supports quota, the GENERIC kernel does 
not. You need to add this line to your kernel config and then 
compile and install a new kernel:


   options QUOTA   #enable disk quotas

Then reboot

2. In fstab as you know, you need to add "userquota" and/or 
"groupquota" to the options.


3. Enable or disable quota with quotaon/quotaoff

4. Edit quota for individual users or groups with edquota

I suggest that you keep quota turned off at boot so your system 
doesn't hang, then enable quotas after boot as in 3.



I've been trying to find something like this already documented but I
haven't found anything at all.


Did you check the handbook? Chp 16.14 seems to be for you. It is 
far more detailed than what I just wrote:

computer name

[eoghan]

Hi
Im wondering if someone can point me in the correct direction. I have  
set my host name in my hosts file as

127.0.0.1 localhost localhost
192.168.1.35 home.nathaniel localhost
So I wanted to use this to get my freeBSD machine from another  
computer on my network. If it try http://home.nathaniel/ on the  
freeBSD machine it works perfect.
But if I try from my mac i get the usual cannot find server. The  
ServerName in my httpd.conf is home.nathaniel.
Id like to get it sending this name so I can also use it with samba  
like:

\\home.nathaniel\public
Instead of using the machines IP address. Thanks for any help.

If you don't have a local dns server that you control (i.e. that you
can add the hostname too), then you'll have to add home.nathaniel to
the hosts file of the box you are trying to get there from. Windows
has a hosts file similar to your freebsd box.

I think you're on the wrong track, domain names doesn't work like 
host names for samba clients. Your BSD machine never sends its 
name. There's no way other clients can resolve the host name.


You need to tell the clients on your network about the hostnames 
of other hosts.


I don't know about Mac, but even Windows has a hosts file in which 
you can list known hosts on the network without the need to setup 
dns. This is fine if you have only a few hosts.

OpenAFS for FreeBSD...

They recently gained a port to OS X, which I understand has a

I have been asking about this for a while.  Occasionally an interested 
party arises.  The work remains incomplete.


The last rumor I heard was that the server works.  The client doesn't 
work out of the box.  I did have the client sort of working once upon a 
time.  That is to say that it was working right up until it panicked.


OSX is a different kernel.  The kernel is where the difficulty lies.

OK, thanks for this answer. I may be overreacting ;-)
Is it Ok to say that after *recompiling* each port with "portupgrade
-fa" on a 5.4 system updated to 6.0 old libraries will no be dangerous
in a way that they would be used any longer?
Should I remove the compat-options from the kernel before or after the
recompilation of all ports?

Yes.  You can verify this with libchk.

After you're sure nothing uses them any longer, or you'll have a

Options for starting "*.sh" programs

In the '/usr/local/etc/rc.d' directory, I have discovered that I have
several options available with the various programs listed there.

For instance, take the samba.sh program. It lists these options:

[fast|force|one](start stop restart rcvar status poll}

I understand the obvious start, stop, restart, rcvar and status. However,
what do the fast, force, one and poll options do?

I cannot seem to find anything in the manual regarding this? No doubt, I
am looking in the wrong place.

I don't like the style of djb, sorry.

The box has 1 ide and 4 scsi disks. But I had to
remove scsi cables and can't find a replacement
at the moment, so it's on ide for now.

Squid is also on the server. So I guess, when
scsi disks are back online, I'll dedicate 2 to
squid, and 2 in a vinum mirroring array with
softupdates disabled for more important
things, like cvs repos, distfiles, etc.

Try setting up a md through which to buffer the read/write operations for cvsupd
For CVS there is a hint in the hubs article
/dev/da0s1b /anoncvstmp mfs
rw,-s=786432,-b=4096,-f=512,-i=560,-c=3,-m=0,nosuid,nodev 0 0

/etc/inetd.conf
cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs -f -l -R -T
/anoncvstmp --allow-root=/home/ncvs pserver

I suppose if you play a bit, you can come with a similar solution for CVSUP.

Btw, have you extended an existing stripe with growfs?

I have to extend my stripe on which ftp+rsync repo lies with 0,5TB and
would like to preserve data if possible.

seeing somethign I do not understand.

If I send it mail with a To that looks like this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

It's getting rewriten to:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I do have a MX record for xx.yy.com, and I have it in 
/etc/mail/local-host-names

Bind question

[stan]

I've got a FreeBSD machine runing Bind 9.3 that needs to zone transfers
from a Solaris 8 machine running Bind 8.3.3 

I'm getting errors about failed transfers. This is showing up in the logs
on the Solaris machine:

Oct 21 14:30:33 cor-day-dns4 named[140]: denied AXFR from
[170.85.113.8].1044 for "10.in-addr.arpa" IN (acl)
 
I suspect that there is some option I need to set to disallow something
thet the Solaris machine is not allowing.

Can anyone clarify this error message for me?

Since you're using KDE anyway, check out KDevelop.  It's similar to Visual 
Studio.

I'm with Johnny, though.  I could live in Emacs quite happily.

It doesn't really seem that disk performance is a
bottle-neck. CPU is saturated much more quickly.
It's a dual P3 box, 5-6 cvsup sessions with
compression turned on is as much as it is gonna
take without major slowdowns. I guess there's
no way to make a new IDE disk lag behind over
a 100Mbit link.

But I'm thinking about gigabit - and cvs instead of
cvsup. That's where your recommendations will
come into play.

No, I haven't been growing any stripes in my
garden lately :-)


Thanks,
Andrew P.

Simply allow the FreeBSD box to get the transfer - check your AXFR ACL
on the Solaris box.
Buy the latest revision of DNS&BIND if you don't have it.
Also if possible, migrate the Solaris named to 9.3 and use TSIG as a
verification for transfers.

Re[2]: Editor for C & C++ language

Hello Johnny,

>> Is  there anything of the kind of llc-win32?

I would give a try to wscite, http://www.scintilla.org/. It's a nice
graphical editor, very configurable, supports almost any language
syntax hihglighting, supports multitabbed windows and runs on unixes
and windows. You can configure it to use different compilers, for
example I configured it on windows to easily compile C# programs.
In a word you should see it.

Hope that helps.

It has nothing to do with FreeBSD, right?

BTW, transfers between BIND8 and BIND9 are
now compromised.

Disks using DMA causing high CPU usage

[Sna Fu]

Hi,

I installed a Maxtor 250Gb ATA133 drive in my FreeBSD machine just yet,
and after doing the common stuff it came up and running just fine. Curious
as I am I decided to do some benchmarks (Bonnie++) to see if a 16Mb cache
affected performance, but much to my surprise I saw that the drive was
using up to 99% of my CPU!

Here is the Bonnie output:

File './Bonnie.7724', size: 104857600
[snip]
 ---Sequential Output ---Sequential Input--
--Random--
 -Per Char- --Block--- -Rewrite-- -Per Char- --Block---
--Seeks---
MachineMB K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU K/sec %CPU  /sec
%CPU
 100 15326 50.3 14596 24.5 17190 27.8 42274 99.0 132574 99.2
13326.4 98.0
[snip]

As you can see, the CPU usage is quite high and the drive throughput is
not what I expected either, but I'm not sure if those are normal rates.
Anyway, the ouput that Bonnie gave me lead me to believe that the drive
might not be using DMA at all, so I checked this using atacontrol:

[snip]
ATA channel 1:
   Master:  ad2  ATA/ATAPI revision 7
   Slave:  acd0  ATA/ATAPI revision 0

Master = UDMA66
Slave  = UDMA33
[snip]

So much for this drive, but I found that both drives on ATA channel 0 were
having the same issue! Both are awfully CPU-intensive when under load,
however I am using a fairly old DMA cable (40 pins) so both disks are
running on UDMA33. Yet, they *are* using DMA so at least I would've
expected a lower CPU utilisation - or am I dead wrong there?

Relevant dmesg output follows:

[snip]
atapci0:  port
0xf000-0xf00f,0x376,0x170-0x177,0x3f6,0x1f0-0x1f7 at device 31.1 on pci0
ata0: channel #0 on atapci0
ata1: channel #1 on atapci0
ata0-master: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device
ata0-slave: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device
ad0: 78167MB  [158816/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33
ad1: 78167MB  [158816/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA33
ad2: 239372MB  [486344/16/63] at ata1-master UDMA66
acd0: CDROM  at ata1-slave PIO4
[/snip]

The machine and disks (sans the 250gb one) performed fine when I was still
running Linux, albeit after some tweaking with hdparm (i.e. enabling
32-bit transfer mode).

My questions in a nutshell: Why is my transfer rate so disappointing, and
why is my CPU usage so enormously high when the disks are being put to
work? I'm out of ideas, I hope anybody can help.

Thanks in advance,

Dan(iel) Eisenhower

I don't know what llc-win32 is, but try using Code::Blocks Studio
(http://www.codeblocks.org/) or Dev-C++
(http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html). The last is written in
Delphi and I have no idea if it could be compiled under FreeBSD.
Good luck with that.

Yeah, Cisco sucks - in that I totally agree with you.

Haven't tried bgp on FreeBSD, but I'm sure the ntpd
problem can be alleviated by daily something like
"/etc/rc.d/ntpd stop && /etc/rc.d/ntpdate start &&
/etc/rc.d/ntpd start", can't it.

Check out Eclipse platform with CDT plugin:

Unfortunately that end is controled by corporaate, and it is _very hard_
to get anything done on thier end.

Is thee soemthing I can do on the FreeBSD end to disable this particular

I'd guess your virtusertable is doing it, but remove the -o flags ("hash -o

gxine seg fault

[makisupa]

Anybody ever get a segmentation fault (core dump) whenever going to full
screen while playing a dvd with gxine?  xine works though...that's
really wierd.  I tried to run through the dump with bug buddy but it
keeps freezing.  This happens no matter what video plugin i select and
nearly every time i go to fullscreen.  There is no error generated in a
terminal.  While googling i found a bloke who had the same problem but
no solution was found...So i'm hoping someone can point me in the right
direction.

FreeBSD newbie.  gxine installed from an up to date ports tree.  Please

Sound driver

[Teilhard Knight]

Hello:

I have only compiled a kernel for FreeBSD for the series 4.x. I now 
installed version 5.4, and I do not have sound. I am compiling my custom 
kernel essentially to get sound. In the series 4.x the driver "pcm" worked 
fine for me. My question is whether I should stick to the same driver or I 
should use another driver in the 5.4 install. Any feedback will be 
appreciated.

Hi. Check out:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/sound-setup.html

It's "device sound" in 5.x instead of "device pcm". Obviously then add 
in support for your specific sound card with the documentation provided 
there.


Hope that helps. :)

I'm using Emacs as my IDE for years now.  It's not exactly what someone
who is used to windowing environments would call a "GUI IDE", but it can
do the following:

- Edit the source code (with syntax highlighting if need be)
  
- Compile (with the hit of a single key, once configured)
  
- Parse compiler output and move to the file/line of an error,
  then to the next error, etc.
  
- Interactively debug C, C++, Perl, Python, or LISP programs,
  line by line -- working as a "control program" for GNU gdb

and that's only a minor subset of the features it has.

Is there a Data Communications Program Native to FreeBSD?

[Bob Perry]

Hello,

I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 and just installed HylaFAX.  I'm just curious if
there is a data communications program native to FreeBSD that I could
easily install and run that would facilitate configuration of my
modem?  

Thanks,

tip and cu are part of the base system and should work for manually
setting modem parameters.

If you want something more sophisticated, ports/comms has several. 
I've used ecu and kermit for various projects in the past.

FWIW... after checking the man pages, I think ntpdate is being

ntpd should be used.  So here is what I now have in my rc.conf:

ntpd_enable="YES"
ntpd_flags="-q"

/etc/ntp.conf contains exactly one line:

server north-america.pool.ntp.org

Works fine.

Also... another thought.  You might try disabling IPv6 unless you need 
it. (remove 'options INET6' from kernconf)

Linux computability

[Michael Christie]

Hi all,

Last night I was trying to work out how to get Linux programs to run 
under freebsd. I have worked out how to get Linux programs to run in 
side a jail under freebsd Linux computability.


1, install linux_base on to the host server, edit rc.conf  add 
linux_enable="YES"
2, make a jail using jail tools and or jail tools webmin.  
http://www.the-labs.com/FreeBSD/JailTools/

3, add mounts from the host to the jail

add mount,
mount_nullfs /compat/ /usr/jails/myjailname/compat/
mount_linprocfs linprocfs /usr/jails/myjailname/compat/linux/proc

To Mount at boot time  edit /etc/fstab
/compat /usr/jails/myjailname/compat nullfsrw  0  0
 linproc /usr/jails/myjailname/compat/linux/proc  linprocfs rw  0  0

4 edit rc.conf inside the jail  add  linux_enable="YES"

Now Linux programs run in side of the jail.



Thanks

IPFW equivalent of iptables --state ESTABLISHED, RELATED

[John Do]

Hi guys

I'm having trouble with IPFW I need to allow user
initiated traffic IN but I can't

Basically in iptables for Linux I would have used
something like
-A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j
ACCEPT


Can someone help me discover what the equivalent
syntax in IPFW would be?

I have tried to use "allow tcp from any to any
established in" but it doesn't work 

much appreciated

thanks guys !

default routing question ZIPB ADSL PPPoA

[Ahnjoan Amous]

 The short : I believe the problem I am having is due to routing. A DHCP
server sends me IP A.B.C.D with a default route of A.B.C.D. "dhclient" isn't
handling this well and I don't know how to fix it. Windows as well as Linux
DHCP clients do not have a problem with this and I am at my wits end trying
to figure out what combination of route commands will fix my issue.

The long : I have a CellPipe ADSL router/bridge from Lucent. This device is
provided by our ISP. I am exploring the ZIPB functionality of the device to
allow my FreeBSD host to own the public IP. The basics of the configuration
for those unfamiliar is as follows. PPPoA is established by the device and
the the (public) IP acquired through the previous process is delivered to a
host behind that CellPipe via DHCP. After DHCP the device acts as a
"bridge", allowing the internal device to use the public IP as its own. I'm
sure this description is vague but I don't know any other way to explain.

Info : After dhclient acquires its info the ethernet interface looks like
this
ifconfig ethernet interface – inet A.B.C.D netmask
255.255.255.255

When I connect a windows or Linux host they seem to treat the interface as
the default route and work as expected. With FreeBSD I have tried removing
all routes for the device after assignment, and then adding default route
based on -interface flag for route command. I have also tried opening up the
netmask on the ethernet interface and adding a default route destined for
what I know the PPPoA connections end point is.

Nothing I have tried seems to work. I don't consider myself an expert by any
means but this is clearly beyond my knowledge.

I'm happy to provide any information you need it you have an idea.

Thanks

Ahnjoan
