fbdesk or idesk for fluxbox icons?
I'm trying to figure out fbdesk, but there is amazingly little to go on. Does anyone have any sample config files? Or should I be using idesk? I have fluxbox 0.9.14 on FreeBSD 6.0. I also sometimes can't get rid of the fluxbox menu, which is highly annoying. thanks! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I can't mount my USB thumb drive or ipod -- no /dev/da*
I'm a bit of a newbie, but I've done a good bit of research, and some asking around on this issue, and haven't been able to resolve it yet. I'm using FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE with the GENERIC kernel. (from what i can tell, it has all of the necessary pieces to allow usb drives). When I plug my ipod into my computer, dmesg gets the following addition: umass0: Apple iPod mini, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2 However, that's all that appears there relative to it. From google, I found that plugging in an ipod or a usb thumb drive should add a /dev/da0 (or similar) entry to /dev, which you should mount. I still don't have a /dev/da*, and I actually checked, and nothing is getting added to /dev when I plug the ipod in. I thought that perhaps this was a problem related to support for the ipod, but I have the exact same problem whenever I try to mount a usb thumb drive. Nothing new appears in /dev, and dmesg simply gives one line explaining that umass0 sees the item. A TA's thumb drive had the same problem. The ipod is FAT32, and has been used in linux many times. The thumb drive is currently ext3, but I'd like to reformat it to FAT32 once I can get FreeBSD to recognize it. Here's the info I can find about the ipod: from dmesg: umass0: Apple iPod mini, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2 from usbdevs -d: addr 1: EHCI root hub, Intel uhub4 addr 2: iPod mini, Apple umass0 And the info from my usb thumb drive: from dmesg: umass0: PNY Attache 2.0, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 2 from usbdevs -d: addr 1: EHCI root hub, Intel uhub4 addr 2: Attache 2.0, PNY umass0 Lines that I think are important from the kernel config: # USB support deviceuhci# UHCI PCI->USB interface deviceohci# OHCI PCI->USB interface deviceehci# EHCI PCI->USB interface (USB 2.0) deviceusb # USB Bus (required) #device udbp# USB Double Bulk Pipe devices deviceugen# Generic deviceuhid# "Human Interface Devices" deviceumass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da # SCSI peripherals devicescbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI) devicech# SCSI media changers deviceda# Direct Access (disks) If there's any further information that would help, please let me know.

swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer - fixed (sort of)
Hello list A month or so ago I noticed that my server was freezing up. It would slowly recover, but there were 10 or so entries like this: kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blk no: 140947, size: 32768 Feb 10 13:26:56 shell kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blk no: 101732, size: 4096 Feb 10 13:32:57 shell kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blk no: 86705, size: 32768 Feb 10 14:00:19 shell kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: bufobj: 0, blk no: 94369, size: 16384 Eventually, /var would fill up as well as swap and the system would lock solid. I thought maybe there was a bad sector on swap, so played around a bit with deleting and re-creating swap files, even made an aux swap file and deleted the two real ones, to no avail. I upgraded from freebsd-4.11 to 5.4 and then up to 6.1-prerelease and the problem was still there. gstat(8) was still showing queued requests in the leftmost column. The disk is an ibm deskstar. So I downloaded the utilities software and ran strenuous testing against the disk, which reported no errors. Everywhere I looked on the lists, it pointed to bad cable or hardware. The disk showed in dmesg like this: Feb 9 21:22:41 shell kernel: ad0: 39266MB at ata0-m aster UDMA100 I thought I'd try running it in safe mode. dmesg now shows the disk like this: ad0: 39266MB at ata0-master PIO4 and no errors!

Strange problem with user account
Somehow I've foobarred a user account. It's on a system that first had the account in /etc/passwd, but then I moved the system over to using LDAP for user imformation. Other accounts are fine, but this one will not allow auth and gives the following error when trying to "su ian" as root: # su USER su: setusercontext: Invalid argument And doing the following shows # ktrace su ian # kdump -f ktrace.out ... "<35>Feb 10 20:29:20 su: initgroups(ian,100): Invalid argument" ... is near the end of the output. Both "ian" and the GID "100" show up just fine when I do: # id ian uid=1032(ian) gid=100(users) groups=100(users) I suspect that something funny has happened to the account before the migration; something like having been removed from /etc/passwd but nowhere else.

scripting sysinstall for pxeboot
Hello- I'm working on a project to netboot servers and perform a custom installation of FreeBSD. I have pxeboot working with tftp, providing an mfs image over the network. sysinstall runs as init and attempts to follow my install.cfg. However, when running my mediaSetFTP command, sysinstall errors with: "The fxp0 device is not configured. You will need to do so in the Networking configuration menu before proceeding." However, I did set tryDHCP=YES. DHCP is working because 1) it just netbooted from it; and 2) I tried with the installation CD. It doesn't appear to be honoring my request that it try DHCP. If I take sysinstall over manually, specifying the network information, it works just fine. I want the installation to work with DHCP. Does anyone have any suggestions for debugging sysinstall in this way? On a not-a-show-stopper note, is there any way to get around specifying the hostname and/or net device? I'd rather not specify the hostname so that I can have one generic script for many machines. Further, what if a some other machine has a different kind of NIC? By hardcoding these values into install.cfg, the solution becomes much less maintainable. Why can't it obtain the hostname from DHCP? Any thoughts on this?

I would presume, then, that the Windows partition has been damaged. If the file system the Windows partition is healty in general with just a few files in the boot sequence being damaged or missing you should be able to re-install Windows in that partition and find all your data and applications present and in good shape. If however the filesystem in the Windows partition is messed up you may have lost everything. If you do re-install windows it will probably replace the MBR that is there with what Windows consideres to be a 'standard' MBR. I think you can use dd to copy the MBR that is currently there. Then to get back to FreeBSD you'll have to use fdisk to set the active partition to FreeBSD. Then you can, hopefully, restore the MBR you saved.

Re: natd & auth requests
handled by natd? like answering last byte of source IP number or DNS reverse name or maybe from table like oidentd? If you're using 1-to-1 NAT forwarding, run identd or the inetd-based version on the internal hosts you're forwarding to. If you're using NAT to only forward individual ports to specific machines, or are using NAT for outbound connection sharing only, well, you can only forward ident requests to a single machine; I don't know of a better solution. Interesting problem... i use to forward about 200 machines through one IP (+ipfw2 to manage bandwidth). all works fine except no authentication of user is possible. for NetBSD i wrote a simple program (identd replacement) that parsed ipnat -l output and made and answer. but under FreeBSD there is no thing similar to /sbin/ipnat -l with natd. or maybe is? something that will output natd map table. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

If you do this, you need to make sure you're generating compatible binaries. In this case, you seem to be generating binaries that are targetted for an older release than FreeBSD 6.0. In order to run 5.x binaries on FreeBSD 6.0, you need to install the compat5x port and build with the corresponding kernel option. > * How can I know whether or not it is save to delete libxpg4.a, > libxpg4.so, libxpg4.so.3, and libxpg4_p.a from /usr/lib on the machines > where they are present?

Sorry; just fired off a message to the list before I got this one... Anyway, I think I've got it now. I believe I was correct in thinking that portupgrade usually takes care of dependencies; the portion that I was missing was that pkgdb catches what discrepancies do appear between what is installed and what is required. One of the ports that was giving me troubles was gamin; which I've just noticed seems to be similar to your situation with openldap-sasl (gamin/fam). Another was cdrtools (cdrtools/cjk-cdrtools). I've corrected both manually using "pkgdb -F", which I think solves my problem (for now, at least :-) ).

'pkgdb -F' will fix the problems it can safely fix. What it won't fix is a dependcency on a program that's been removed. You need to look at that message and figure out what's going on and correct the problem. Skipping or deleting the dependency is not taking care of the problem, it's just getting out of 'pkgdb -F'. Portupgrade - depending on how you used it - takes care of dependcies. A stale dependency is not an error in pkgdb. Something is wrong and you have to fix it. By the way, portaudit is a fine tool, but sometimes it gets in the way of what you want to do. It can prevent you from installing or upgrading some program that you want to.

/usr/lib/libxpg4.so.3 missing - Did I miss a memo?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On my network, I have several hosts that were originally installed with FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE, 5.3-RELEASE, and 5.4-RELEASE. All of these have been updated now to 6.0-RELEASE-p4. One host was originally installed from 6.0-RELEASE media and subsequently updated to p4. All works well. I took a cue from The FreeBSD Handbook; 21.5 Tracking for Multiple Machines, and have a central build host for the network. On this machine, I do my make buildworld, make buildkernel and building of packages to ports. That way I can just install port packages on the non-build machine. Everything worked great until I built bacula-server-1.38.5_1. Package built fine. Installs and runs fine on all machines except the host that was originally installed from 6.0-RELEASE media. On that machine, the bacula daemons will not execute. They error with: (for example) /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libxpg4.so.3" not found, required by "bacula-dir" This library does not exist on the from-6.0-install machine. I started by looking through /usr/src/UPDATING and can find no mention of this library on either the default branch or RELENG_5 branch. Next I started browsing through CVS and logs for /usr/src. Here's what I've found: This library has been obsolete and pretty much empty for a long time because its functionality was moved into libc. Yes, the library itself still existed up until the RELENG_5 tag. About 14 months ago, the files were removed on the mainline by tjr (Tim J. Robbins) on 2004-Nov-13. I've managed to get past this by adding a line to libmap.conf(5): libxpg4.so.3 libc.so.6 My questions (yes, finally) are: * Is this change documented somewhere that Google can't find or that I'm not looking? * Is my handling of this situation correct as a band-aid fix? * How can I know whether or not it is save to delete libxpg4.a, libxpg4.so, libxpg4.so.3, and libxpg4_p.a from /usr/lib on the machines where they are present? * Why would bacula (or anything else, for that matter) even try to link to this library in the first place?

The info you are asking for is on the Freebsd site. See http://www.freebsd.org/where.html FreeBsd does not have a DVD version for download. It is only available as iso's on the site and you can down load these by torrent if you want to. If you want to do something else then read the documentation and work it out - that is primarily how the system works. You can get FreeBsd on DVD is you want to buy it - see the http://www.freebsd.org/where.html for info on the FreeBsd mall at cost or you can find suppliers at cost through say ebay. One other thought if you don't want to spend time swapping the CDs try an FTP install.

"The Complete FreeBSD": errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. "The Complete FreeBSD" has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor "Installing and Running FreeBSD". Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing? Please let me know: I'm constantly updating it.

How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions
How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update $Date: 2005/08/10 02:21:44 $ This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list! If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your subscription page at: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/options/freebsd-questions/[EMAIL PROTECTED] (obviously, substitute your mail address for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"). You can also make such adjustments via email by sending a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word 'help' in the subject or body (don't include the quotes), and you will get back a message with instructions. You must know your password to change your options (including changing the password, itself) or to unsubscribe. Normally, Mailman will remind you of your freebsd.org mailing list passwords once every month, although you can disable this if you prefer. This reminder will also include instructions on how to unsubscribe or change your account options. There is also a button on your options page that will email your current password to you. Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2.

I'm not an expert on pkgdb, but I'm pretty sure that's the way it works. You need to fix, not delete, the stale dependencies. This may take some effort the first time around.

stale dependencies in pkgdb
Hello, I am trying to use a combination of portaudit and portupgrade to automatically maintain installed packages on my system, but portupgrade often hangs on stale dependencies. I've run "pkgdb -F" as portupgrade suggests, deleting stale dependencies, but they seem to keep reappearing. I guess I'm a little unclear about what a stale dependency consists of and how to fix it.

Any suggestions? You don't create a partition to restore to when you're using g4u. It does a bit by bit copy so it creates the slice and partitions for you automatically. As the documentation for g4u says, it's most useful when the source disk and target disk are the same size. It works when the target disk is bigger, but the slice will only be as big as the original slice. -- Ken Stevenson Allen-Myland Inc. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

While I 've done source upgrades across major version bumps, my recommendation is (if at alll feasible) to buy a new disk and start over. It's amazing the amount of crud that accumulates on most people's disks. Mount the old disk read-only, and copy off any desired files, then store it as "ultimate backup" for six months or so.

If you did, and you generated a backtrace as described here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug-gdb.html I reckon you'ld see that it panic'd with 'kmem_map too small': #0 doadump () at pcpu.h:165 #1 0xc063ce7f in boot (howto=260) at /usr/src/sys/kern/kern_shutdown.c:399 #2 0xc063d1a5 in panic (fmt=0xc0888692 "kmem_malloc(%ld): kmem_map too small: % ld total allocated") at /usr/src/sys/kern/kern_shutdown.c:555 #3 0xc07aa349 in kmem_malloc (map=0xc10600c0, size=16384, flags=1026) at /usr/s rc/sys/vm/vm_kern.c:299 #4 0xc07a1c72 in page_alloc (zone=0x0, bytes=16384, pflag=0x0, wait=1026) at /u sr/src/sys/vm/uma_core.c:957 [etc...] It's a bug -- the VM system seems to starve the memory disk of pages, causing a crash. See the example given at the end of http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/87255 The ultimate cause would be running a bunch of programs that are heavy on the memory requirements, and running out of memory for both them and the malloc backed memory filesystem. See mdconfig(8) -- as it says: malloc Storage for this type of memory disk is allocated with malloc(9). This limits the size to the malloc bucket limit in the kernel. If the -o reserve option is not set, creating and filling a large malloc-backed memory disk is a very easy way to panic a system. Hence using '-o reserve' looks like a very good thing to try. Alternatively use a swap backed memory disk, or don't use a memory disk at all. Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil.

Hmmm... Seems you've changed the version of pdflib installed on your machine -- maybe to the pdflib-perl port? Anyhow, if you're immediately going to upgrade phpMyAdmin (and you should: that old version has some known vulnerabilities) then while running 'pkgdb -F' just *delete* the dependency on pdflib. That will clear the pkgdb enough for portupgrade to run, and as soon as it installs the updated version of phpMyAdmin, it will put back the correct list of dependencies.

RE: sshd / ssh setup
For the archives. Example of configuring OpenSSH Environment description: In this example we have a FreeBSD system which we will call the host. We have an Remote FreeBSD system which is located some where on the public internet, we will call this the FBSD-client. We also have an Remote MS/windows system which is located some where on the public internet, we will call this the Win-client. OpenSSH has a few different security levels when it comes to how the ssh login is handled. This example details the encrypted host/client key with passphrase method.

Sure you can. Just edit your ports supfile to have: *default release=cvs tag=RELEASE_4_6_0 and re-cvsup. Note that the tags used in ports are disjoint from the tags used in the main system sources.

Sorry no. But I am sure that you'll not have many choices, if any. Content providers have very strict policies about the content they provide(movies). Having the data on a PC program(closed source of course) increases the possibility of data leaking and I guess they don't want to mess up with Paramount or whatever...

I used this recently to 'recover' my laptop's installation, using a spare partition. Before running 'installkernel' and 'installworld', a backup of my root, /var and /usr partitions was saved with: # cd /home/backup # dump -o -aL -f root.ad0s1a / # dump -o -aL -f var.ad0s1d /var # dump -o -aL -f usr.ad0s1e /usr A 'copy' of the original /, /var and /usr was restored in ad0s2a, which was a single UFS partition, large enough to hold a restored copy of my old /, /var and /usr partitions: # newfs -U /dev/ad0s2a # mount /dev/ad0s2a /mnt # ( cd /mnt; restore -ruf /home/backup/root.ad0s1a ) # ( cd /mnt/var ; restore -ruf /home/backup/var.ad0s1d ) # ( cd /mnt/usr ; restore -ruf /home/backup/var.ad0s1e ) Then, when things went totally nuts after the installation of a new system on ad0s1* partitions, I could still boot from ad0s2a and restore my old backup copies from /home :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
