Setting up Sound Blaster Pro card
Dear Colleagues, I am trying to set up my sound card and I am finding some difficulties. First, here is the description of the hardware. I use Acer TravelMate 4060 laptop with 512 MB RAM with Intel Chipset 915GM. The Audio Section taken directly from the laptop's user guide is: Audio system with two built-in speakers Built-in microphone Sound Blaster Pro and MS Sound compatible. Second, the FreeBSD version is $ uname -a FreeBSD petya.myhome.westell.com 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #0: Fri Jan 27 03:08:18 EET 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CUSTOM20060127 i386 The only difference of my custom kernel and the generic one is that I added device atapicam to configure my CD burner. Next, here are my attempts of configuring the sound card. I read [1] and I checked /usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES to find some clues which driver should be loaded. I also googled about "Sound Blaster Pro" + FreeBSD and found [2] and I concluded that I have to use snd_sbc, snd_sb8 and possibly snd_sb16. I added the following three lines to /boot/loader.conf snd_sbc_load="YES" snd_sb8_load="YES" snd_sb16_load="YES" I then rebooted my machine and when it started I ran dmesg: $ dmesg | grep sound Preloaded elf module "/boot/kernel/sound.ko" at 0xc0ab82d8. $ dmesg | grep snd Preloaded elf module "/boot/kernel/snd_sb16.ko" at 0xc0ab8228.

RE: strange problem with ipfw and rc.conf
Your problem is you have rc.conf loading 2 different firewalls at same time. IPFW which is compiled into your kernel as firewall and ipfilter which you have rc.conf starting. You don't need to compile either one of the firewalls into the kernel to work. You need to read the firewall section of the handbook. It contains a very complete usage description of the 3 firewalls that come with FreeBSD. I would recommend you use ipfilter as your firewall. IPFW is for the experienced firewall user who has FW requirements needing functions not provided by one of the other FW's delivered with the base FreeBSD install. And since it looks like you have 3 private circuits on your LAN you will need NAT function and nat in ipfilter is so much easier to set up than ipfw when using the keep state function in your rules file. The handbook ipfilter sample rules sets work as is. Just copy and past into your own rules file and your pretty much good to go after following the comments. And another thing, its not acceptable behavior to cross post to 2 lists with same question.

Besides, I recompiled the customized kernel and there is no need for "firewall_enable="YES"" statement in rc.conf. Yes, there is. Just because it's compiled in, doesn't mean it's turned on.

I don't think I've done any harm, but I wanted another opinion or two. Added an additional hard drive to an existing setup. Then gave the following commands: bsdlabel -w /dev/ad2 newfs -U -O 2 /dev/ad2 mount /dev/ad2 /mnt/ad2 then went about the business of moving and rearranging for having the new disk. After the machine was back in production, I saw the odd mount point. My question is, have I just ended up ignoring the bsdlabel command and I'm using the entire disk as a "raw disk" or is there some set of reasons I should re-bsdlabel and newfs /dev/ad2a this time.

When you say you enabled it, do you simply mean you did nothing at all, or did you add an extra fsck -B somewhere. Background fsck is enabled by default, and it runs 60 seconds after all other initialization. Partitions can only be deferred for background checking if they support it, and are in a mountable state. These partitions are simply skipped in the pre-mount fsck check. All it does is recover lost space.

Re: Log file analyzer
Does anyone know of a good free log file analyzer that can show where a visitors entering via a search term browsed? Ex. User xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx entered via a search for "puppies" visited /lab.html visited /care/fleas.html visited /beagle.html ended visit All of the free ones I know of only show a list of search terms - not any type of tracking. Boy, wouldn't the Government LOVE to subpoena Google for that info!!! Generally speaking, there's no way to track what links a user actually clicks on in search results. Once a page has been delivered to the end user, clicking on http://www.some_web_site_listed_in_search_results.com won't notify the search engine that it's been clicked. HOWEVER, if your search engine has a CGI script that redirects links, you can track it. An tag such as: href="http://www.search_engine.com/track_my_ass.cgi?http://www.some_web_site_listed_in_search_results.com";> some_web_site_listed_in_search_results will return to the search engine server (or wherever you want) where it can be logged and then forwarded to the actual destination.

Re: strange problem with ipfw and rc.conf
Thanks. I don't think it was the problem of ipfw rulesets. In fact once I did "sh /etc/ipfw.rules" and things are fine. I just cant figure out why the rc.conf won't load the rulesets. Besides, I recompiled the customized kernel and there is no need for "firewall_enable="YES"" statement in rc.conf. --- Arne Woerner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > --- gahn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > 65335 locking out everything).

FreeBSD does not distribute a compiled binary package for screen,
but you are welcome to compile your own. If you have the ports
system installed (as you probably do), just do the following:
cd /usr/ports/misc/screen
sudo make install
That should install screen. If you have questions about the ports
system, read the manpage or the FreeBSD handbook.
> Are there any alternatives? Because as I can remember screen was

screen works fine on FreeBSD -- the package building process just
doesn't make it possible for FreeBSD to provide a pre-compiled
version. As I said, you're welcome to compile your own. It's the
first thing I do when I set up a new system.

You should not have it listed in the "Modules" section. Several other modules are gone as their functionality has been rolled into the base system. I suspect fbdev is such a obsolete.

Questions on SMP and 64 bit
I'm buying a new computer, and am thinking of the new dual core AMD X2. I'm not sure I want to run 64 bit kernel yet, because of driver support and things like flash, and video, etc.. Will this processor still be as fast as a 32 bit if I use i386 kernel? Do I have to use a SMP kernel? Is there one available for i386? Should I just get a 32 bit single core, if that's the kernel I'm going to run? The main things I want that I don't think are easy to set up would be flash, mplayer and nVidia 3D driver. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

"screen" *is* in the ports collection (sysutils/screen (or misc/screen if you are using an older copy of the ports collection)). It is not available as a binary package because when built as a package it misbehaves for some (unknown) reason and uses a lot of CPU. -- Erik Trulsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Greg, According to Freshports, the screen package is the problem.

Dan, you're referring to configure.in, right? There's no AC_SEARCH
in that at all. Do I just need to add a line? If so, does it matter

That will cause the box to run 'fsck -p' in the foreground on each reboot. Alternatively, if this is a one-off, just hit '4' on the boot-up menu screen, boot into single user mode and run fsck manually. First, run 'fsck -p' to automatically repair any filesystems marked as unclean when shutdown. If fsck flails and requests human interaction then run fsck /dev/adXsYz adjusting X, Y and z to suit your local partitioning, and changing ad to whatever is appropriate if you aren't running on bog-standard IDE or SATA drives. Note that it can be quite dangerous to run 'fsck -y' blindly: that gives fsck permission to destroy otherwise recoverable data if it needs to in order to get the filesystem back into shape. Once fsck shows all your partitions as clean, just hit ^D to let the system come the rest of the way up.

He should use the official drivers since they allow the end user to experience the chipset (graphics accelleration, rendering, compositing) much better than the non-official drivers do.

did something change in SMP scheduling from 5.4 to 6.0?
Hey all, I am curious if something changed in the way extra cpus are utilized in 6.0 vs. 5.4 in a SMP kernel. My system is a dual-proc Xeon box. When I was using 5.4 top would show both procs being used roughly the same, e.g. the "C" column usually had almost as many processes running on the second cpu as on the first. On Jan 23 I did a cvsup and compiled a new 6.0-STABLE SMP kernel. Now watching top I rarely see the second proc being used, even though roundrobin is enabled. FWIW, here's some possibly relevant config bits: Dude ? sysctl -a|egrep smp kern.timecounter.smp_tsc: 0 kern.smp.forward_roundrobin_enabled: 1 kern.smp.forward_signal_enabled: 1 kern.smp.cpus: 4 kern.smp.disabled: 0 kern.smp.active: 1 kern.smp.maxcpus: 16 Dude ? Dude ? sysctl -a|egrep hyperth machdep.hyperthreading_allowed: 0 I've attached the output of a typical top with some builds running. Unfortunately I don't have any saved data from 5.4. I do see the second processor being used but those times are rare. When it does happen it seems almost exclusively when I'm seriously hammering the system. This makes me think something has changed with 6.0 behind-the-scenes such that if the system doesn't need the extra power then it sticks to cpu 0. I poked around the release notes and handbook but failed to find anything on this topic. Am I all wet and simply have something misconfigured or indeed all is well with 6.x doing it's thing hugging cpu 0? -- Randy([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 715-726-2832 email bodhisattva <*> "There is no fire like passion, there is no shark like hatred, there is no snare like folly, there is no torrent like greed." last pid: 86336; load averages: 0.37, 0.31, 0.22 up 2+22:34:02 10:21:42 148 processes: 2 running, 146 sleeping CPU states: 14.9% user, 0.0% nice, 10.2% system, 0.0% interrupt, 74.8% idle Mem: 312M Active, 963M Inact, 187M Wired, 11M Cache, 112M Buf, 529M Free Swap: 4096M Total, 4096M Free PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZERES STATE C TIME WCPU COMMAND 86122 root1 80 1612K 1500K wait 0 0:00 16.50% make 86335 root1 1390 584K 476K RUN0 0:00 16.50% make 86288 root1 -80 1648K 1184K piperd 0 0:00 16.50% sh 85738 root1 -80 21276K 20924K piperd 0 0:02 14.99% ruby18 86121 root1 80 1636K 1172K wait 0 0:00 14.99% sh 655 schultz 1 760 30148K 29220K select 0 15:43 0.00% Xorg 11160 schultz 1 760 2644K 1924K select 0 2:20 0.00% top 80862 schultz 7 200 203M 190M kserel 0 2:06 0.00% firefox-bin 667 schultz 1 760 14136K 10276K select 0 0:32 0.00% xchat 4023 schultz 1 760 6924K 5948K select 0 0:31 0.00% xterm-static 3013 schultz 8 200 55640K 41624K kserel 0 0:29 0.00% evolution-2.2 4006 schultz 1 760 5468K 4492K select 0 0:25 0.00% xterm-static 801 schultz 1 760 5472K 4496K select 0 0:20 0.00% xterm-static 592 root1 760 1216K 676K select 0 0:19 0.00% moused 41670 schultz 1 760 8672K 6968K select 0 0:15 0.00% pine 692 schultz 1 760 5484K 4424K select 0 0:11 0.00% xterm-static 10846 schultz 1 760 5452K 4460K select 0 0:10 0.00% xterm-static 708 schultz 1 760 5500K 4524K select 0 0:09 0.00% xterm-static 1172 schultz 1 760 5452K 4476K select 0 0:09 0.00% xterm-static 80886 schultz 1 760 2632K 1912K CPU0 0 0:08 0.00% top 494 root1 760 2924K 1760K select 0 0:08 0.00% ntpd 888 schultz 1 760 5452K 4448K select 0 0:07 0.00% xterm-static 660 schultz 1 760 5400K 3548K select 0 0:06 0.00% fvwm 12259 schultz 1 760 5472K 4496K select 0 0:05 0.00% xterm-static 81573 schultz 1 760 5468K 4492K select 0 0:05 0.00% xterm-static 20918 schultz 1 760 5500K 4524K select 0 0:05 0.00% xterm-static 32772 schultz 1 760 5452K 4448K select 0 0:05 0.00% xterm-static 385 root1 760 1300K 828K select 0 0:04 0.00% syslogd 9622 schultz 1 760 5468K 4504K select 0 0:03 0.00% xterm-static 9287 schultz 1 760 5468K 4504K select 0 0:03 0.00% xterm-static 14583 schultz 1 760 5500K 4536K select 0 0:02 0.00% xterm-static 20866 schultz 1 760 5480K 4512K select 0 0:02 0.00% xterm-static 20907 schultz 1 760 5468K 4504K select 0 0:02 0.00% xterm-static 688 schultz 1 760 4888K 3680K select 0 0:02 0.00% gconfd-2 664 schultz 1 760 4664K 3040K select 0 0:02 0.00% FvwmPager 3018 schultz 7 200 32768K 18764K kserel 0 0:02 0.00% evolution-alar 45374 schultz 1 1390 3336K 2780K select 0 0:01 0.00% ssh 662 schultz 1 760 4844K 3992K select 0 0:01 0.00% xclock 3015 schultz 8 200 19500K 13188K kserel 0 0:01 0.00% evolution-data 533

You've asked an interesting question, but there's a lack of data ("vmstat -i",

details, maybe as files in a directory being served by HTTP, and sending a link.

Are the CPU's busy handling interrupts, in which case enabling interrupt
coalescing (-link0 flag, depending on the NIC) or maybe using device polling
might help?
Have you tried enabling fast-forwarding sysctl?
Or are you busy processing the traffic in your IPFW ruleset, in which case
changing and optimizing your ruleset will likely remove the bottleneck you see.
It's also possible that running the system in single-processor mode might
actually behave better for this kind of workload, because you avoid all the SMP
locking...

Dynamic rules shouldn't get created unless your ruleset tells IPFW to make them,
or unless something like natd generates rules dynamicly for active FTP traffic.
It's entirely possible to replace dynamic rules with appropriate static rules
for your most common types of traffic, which may be faster and avoid filling up
the dynamic session table. For example, instead of doing "pass tcp from me to
any smtp keep-state":
# outside SMTP to pi
add pass tcp from any HIPORTS to PI 25 setup
add pass tcp from PI 25 to any HIPORTS established
# permit SMTP exchange between pi and pong
add pass tcp from PI HIPORTS to PONG 25 setup
add pass tcp from PONG 25 to PI HIPORTS established
add pass tcp from PONG HIPORTS to PI 25 setup
add pass tcp from PI 25 to PONG HIPORTS established
# track SMTP from inside to outside and block SMTP from outside
add pass log logamount 20 tcp from INET HIPORTS to any 25 setup
add pass tcp from INET HIPORTS to any 25 established
add unreach filter-prohib log tcp from any to INET 25
[ Where PI and PONG are macros which expand to the IP addresses of my external
MX relay and the internal reader box, respectively, HIPORTS means 1024-65535,
and INET refers to the internal network. ]

RE: auth.log & intruder prevention
What is happening to you is not unique. There are 4 common solutions to this problem. 1. The simplest is to add a deny rule to your firewall for the offending ip address. 2. Use the "routed blackhole" command. Example: To Add use route add -host attacker_ip 127.0.0.1 -blackhole To Delete use route delete -host attacker_ip 127.0.0.1 -blackhole To List use netstat -nr|grep 127 This is executed in the IP stack and is faster than in the firewall when you have over 20 of those special "deny this IP address" rules in the firewall. The "attacker_ip" in found in the log records in /var/log/auth.log file. You can create a script (route_blackholed_ip.sh) containing route commands for all the IP address that have attacked you in the past and save it to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ so it will be run at boot time. *** note ** The problem using either of the above methods is the attacker may just use a different ip address in the same range. Depending on where your authorized traffic is coming from you can deny or blackhole the complete subnet. Even the whole xxx..0.0.0 by coding the ip address with /xx after it. *** note end ** 3. If you know the ip address of your authorized ssh users then add rules to your file wall to pass just those authorized ip address to port 22 and deny all else. 4. All of the about solutions will not stop the flow of traffic to port 22 driving up your bandwidth usage, just stop it from getting to ssh which is all ready doing a fine job of stopping it now. The only way to reduce the unauthorized traffic to your port 22 is not to have port 22 open. In the ssh logon command you can enter the port number you have ssh using. So change the port ssh uses and the scrip kiddies will not be able to find your ssh access port. You can change the port ssh is listening on by editing the ssh entry in /etc/services to some high number port of your choosing and then have all your ssh users include that port number in there remote login command. Allow that port number to pass in your firewall and deny port 22. This way the attackers will not see ssh port open and not waist time on you any longer. ** to get revenge on your attackers * Attackers who beat on ssh/telnet/ftp are looking to break into your box so they have to be using there real ip address to receive the response when they succeed. (ie not using spoofed ip address) If you use the ipfilter firewall you can use the FreeBSD port ppars-1.0 to read the log file and auto generate an email to the isp owner of the ip address range the attacker is using. Most ISP's around the world have usage user agreements that this attacking behavior is not allowed. In most cases the ISP will terminate the attackers account. In time your ip address will become know as place not to probe and your bandwidth usage will decline. The install guide at www.a1poweruser.com (section 6.13 Defending Against Attacks) has a more detailed explanation. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Paul Hamilton Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2006 10:05 PM To: 'Daniel Gerzo'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: auth.log & intruder prevention Hi Daniel, On your web site, you show how easy it is to convert to IPTABLES.

Re: freebsd hosting
I have leased a dedicated host for several years with mikro-data.net who is located in Kentucky and been very happy with their pricing, service and responsiveness. Basically, I just told them what version of FreeBSD I wanted on the server and they loaded it. They sent me the root password and they haven't touched it again except at my request. It's worked out great for me. They are very friendly to open-source communities, so if you tell them you heard about them from me on the freebsd-questions mailing list, they might even give you a discounted rate. I recieved a discounted rate when I heard about them through the local LUG anyway... I don't get any perks for any of this, in case you're wondering. I would send questions about rates to [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you're interested.

Compaq Pressario 700 (laptop): X totally unconfigurable
Hello, I just received FreeBSD 6.0. It installed flawlessly on a Compaq Pressario 700 Athlonbased laptop until I rebooted and saw that the viewable portion of the screen was in the upper left quarter of the screen. The resolution appears to be set alright based on the icon size in KDE (which works well), it's just the viewable portion of the desktop. As a visual: if you divided your screen now into quarters and got rid of all the right side and lower left corner, what you have left is what I see: makes viewing a mess. The pcmcia card works fine - no connection problems, just this viewable screen issue. I tried to go into XF86config, but was spit back to the shell prompt: I can't go any further. I have installed more than five times trying to change this, but it doesn't allow me access to the config file. Other than continuing to play with installations, are there any methods you suggest I use to access the config file? Caveat: I have RTFM, docs, mans, etc, but I haven't seen this problem documented anywhere. I am Linux convert and am familiar with much of this, however I wonder if it isn't a matter of semantics when I was searching information - I have no idea. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. /fred ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Hello freebsd-questions,
What better for security reasons?
Inetd, xinetd, standalone? As sample -- vsftpd.
As i know, inetd insecure and deprecated. But what better, xinetd or
standalone?
There's nothing inherently insecure about inetd, and I think that
our implementation is just fine.
As for {x,}inetd vs standalone, that depends entirely on your kind
of load.
