Multiple DNS

[Robert Slade]

Hi,

I am looking for some advice. I have a network which is based on a
number of servers running FreeBsd 6.0 serving Win XP work stations. (yes
I know but..) The network is large enough to use DHCP and DNS for the
internal network, I have setup a DHCP server with a Dynamic DNS (Bind 9)
on one of the servers. That server is handling the LDAP side of the
domain. 

There appears to be a fair bit of DNS Traffic which leads to a secondary
DNS being required to take some of the load as DNS lookup are slow. The
question I have is should I just setup a cashing DNS on another server
using the primary as a forwarder or even several servers eg the mail
server and the secondary LDAP server, or should I setup a proper
secondary DNS using my ISP as a forwarder with dynamic updates from the
primary.

Sorry if this is a bit vague, but I have no experience in this area.

Rob

FreeBSD installer crash on Epox + HighPoint 372

[Ang Kok Ming]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up FreeBSD on an Epox 845 chipset motherboard, P4 1.3 with
a builtin HighPoint 372 RAID controller. The boot process would fail and it
would go into a boot-splashscreen-reboot cycle. Several BSD versions were
tried but to no avail.

I've also tried the HighPoint FreeBSD drivers for the 5.4 release, and after
loading the driver and typing 'boot', it would 'silently' crash and reboot.

Windows installation can go through on the system w/o RAID drivers without a
glitch, but not FreeBSD or Linux. I need to run a *nix box without any RAID.
The installation is to be done on a unpartitioned disk.

Does anybody has any info on resolving such a problem. Thanks.

FreeBSD 6.1 will have support for these cards as well. If you don't want to 
wait, you can cvsup with tag=RELENG_6, which should give you 
FreeBSD-6.1-PRERELEASE or something like that.

The motherboard already has jumpers on the pins
specified in the manual. That was a good idea that
hadn't occured to me though.

Check your line-out jumpers. Most new motherboards come with the option of 
front panel sound, in which case the sound loops through the front panel 
connector. If you're not using front panel sound you probably need jumpers on 
the motherboard. Your manual should tell you about this. I ran into a similar 
problem with another motherboard a few weeks ago.

So from what I gather,  "rev=0x10" indicates the use of the realteak

must be patched to load the correct driver "re".

I have not manually done source patches and am kind of adverse to

Issues with new soundcard

[David LeCount]

I just got a new motherboard (Tyan S2895) with a
soundcard built in. I really don't have any choice at
the time but to use that soundcard since there isn't a
free PCI slot for my old one. The card is detected by
the module snd_ich and I can play music and adjust the
mixer with no errors, but there is simply no volume
whatsoever. I've checked to make sure my sound system
was connected properly and that both the main and pcm
volumes were turned up. The card is enabled in the
CMOS. I've ran out of ideas. I'm running FreeBSD 6
stable updated just today. Here's the output from cat
/dev/sndstat.

FreeBSD Audio Driver (newpcm)
Installed devices:
pcm0:  at io 0x1800, 0x1400 irq 22
bufsz 16384 kld snd_ich (1p/1r/4v channels duplex
default)

I appreciate any help.

Bluetooth - obexapp - get/put files with spaces in names

[dgmm]

After some fiddling and hair pulling I eventually got my bluetooth adapter to 
"see" the mobile phone.

I'd like to pull some files from it but either I'm not seeing the obvious or 
it just ain't obvious.

Does anyone know how to change to a directory which has spaces in the name or 
"get" a file which has spaces in the name?

This is a frequently recurring question in comp.lang.c.  There
are perfectly portable ways to use only ANSI C functions to read
a full line of text, allocating dynamically as much memory as
needed.

For example, a search in the archives of the newsgroup will
provide easily pointers to safe ways to use fgets() to read a line.

You're missing an ``-lreadline'' option at the end of your build command.

You may be interested to know that the BSDs have editline(3) too, a
command-line editing library that supports at least `some' of the GNU
readline features, but is BSD-licensed:

% man editline

If it is a recent model 1032, then "skc" is the wrong driver.
Try "re" instead; you may want, or need, to put 

if_re_load="YES

in "/boot/loader.conf".

Check the questions archives.
There was a post from a east coast college (NJ) that has a internet
education program for FreeBSD certificate.
The director posted some facts about his program.

That's all I can remember of it.

The http://www.bsdcertification.org/ just completed incorporating in
Oct 2005.
The don't have a certificate program yet. They are just looking for
donations to fund the development of the their certificate program.
Maybe in 5 years they may have something.

reg a process's ruid and euid

[divyesh shah]

I have a system call which should kill all processes
for a given uid. Now, I am confused about which uid to
use(real or effecctive) of the processes when killing
them.
Example scenario:
userids A, B, C
A is super-user(root) so using my system call he can
kill  processes of any other user.
Also, user C is running a process with ruid C but euid
B(giving him possibly higher privilege). 
Now if A calls my system call asking to kill all
processes of uid B, should my system call also kill
the process started by C but running as B.

Thanks,
Divyesh Shah.

I've had the same issue a few months ago. This will probably help you:

OK, then that is the problem. I need it to actually write the file. It
could either rename the old file and then rewrite it which would be nice,
or just over write the old file. The BOM is just the first three
characters in the file. I am assuming that it would not be removing
anything else in the file.

I use this to add BOM:
http://search.cpan.org/~lyokato/UTF8BOM-1.01/lib/UTF8BOM.pm

You shouldn't be so fixed on eliminating BOMs, it's
quite a nice concept. It causes less trouble than you
think.

Re: question on NAT for multiple subnets

[Rob Connon (Info)]

Look at PF if your running FreeBSD 5/6. - You can do this easily and 
it's well documented.
IMO it's alot more functional and usable over ipfw and definetly better 
documentation.


http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/index.html - *most* of the features in the 
OpenBSD faq cover the freebsd port.

Excellent. That's what I was hoping for. So instead of one "divert 
natd" rule in ipfw, I simply need "divert N", "divert N+1", "divert 
N+2", etc. where N is a port number where I bound my first natd, N+1 
the next natd instance, etc. I think I can manage that.



If it were me, though, I would try to
setup multiple FreeBSD boxes, not only does that give you some
redundancy, but it makes troubleshooting a lot easier.



Thanks, but we're talking about a need for somewhere between 54 and 
216 distinct NAT<->subnet instances, maybe more. I really need a 
solution for one host, two NICs, that compares favorably to providing 
this functionality with a PIX.

Subject: question on NAT for multiple subnets


I'm sure I could figure this out from scrutinizing Google, the 
FreeBSD documentation, and testing in a lab, but I'm particularly 
pressed for time on finding the right answer to this.


For a long time we've been quite happy coalescing all private IP 
client requests onto a single public IP address through NAT. 
Management now wants more granularity, at least one unique public IP 
per private subnet.


Can I set up a single ipfw box that examines client source ip addrs 
and provides different public NAT addrs for each private client subnet?


Any pointers to the best way to think about this issue much 
appreciated. If the answer is ipfw doesn't handle this, but some 
other fw does, fine, I just need to know which. Thanks!

Maybe they read /usr/ports/UPDATING where 

20051113:
  AFFECTS: users of x11/xterm, x11/xorg-clients, x11/XFree86-4-clients
  AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Xterm no longer installs with '-static' prefix. Users should upgrade
  XFree86-clients to 4.5.0_1 or xorg-clients to 6.8.2_1 or newer before
  attempting upgrade of xterm to 206_1 or newer. Previous versions 
remove
  xterm on deinstall so CONFLICTS have been set accordingly.

It worked for me back in November :).

It shouldn't be writing any new files; it prints the filtered text to
stdout.

It compiles and works with "gcc -o readline readline.c -l readline". You
need to tell the loader about the library.

Yes - that's why I said I "got a bit further", not that I had made it
work.  I have never tried to use it before, and would have to experiment
more.

Something appears to be wrong here. First, the file will not run unless 
I precede it with 'perl'. I have another perl script in the same 
directory that runs just fine without any special prefixes. Also, the 
script does not seem to remove the BOM entity.

This is the script as I have it entered:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use warnings;
use diagnostics -verbose;
@file=<>;
$file[0] =~ s/^\xEF\xBB\xBF//;
print(@file);

I have the file permissions set to 0755. Is there anything else that 
could be causing this to fail?

This is the first line of the file I am attempting to fix (well one of 
them).

Subject:

That is what appears when I use pico to view the file.

Linksys EG1032 -- couldn't map ports/memory

[Brent Hostetler]

Hello,
I am trying to get a linksys EG1032 working with freebsd 6.0. The
driver appears to not be loading properly giving error that it could
not map ports/memory and attach returned 6. Not sure what is wrong, or
what needs to be done to fix.

Please advise,

Brent

function from the K&R book but I'm not totally sure that's a great idea
either.  Stupid strings always causing problems!



Depending on what you'd like to do, GNU readline may be a fine solution to your
situation.  Otherwise, getch(stdin) with a bit of code to "cook" DEL/BS/CR/NL,
or just use the getline port as you've already done.  :-)

  
Okay...I think I'm either an idiot or going slowly insane.  I'll admit 
I'm not the most savvy C programmer but the following code gives me an 
error:


## Source File##
#include 
#include 
#include 

int main() {
   char *line;

   line = readline("Test: ");

   return 0;
}
##Source File##

##Error##
/var/tmp//ccqxIZxQ.o(.text+0x25): In function `main':
: undefined reference to `readline'
##Error##

What sucks is that readline() seems like it would be the perfect 
solution.  I'm not doing anything special but my I don't want to start 
getting into bad habits like using gets().

fresh install, portupgrade fails on xterm

[Xn Nooby]

its depressing when a fresh install fails

i followed my normal fail-proof slow method of updating a fresh install, and
it fails to update xterm, some of the messages are:

   xorg-clients-6.8.2
*** Error code 1



** Listing the failed packages
  ! x11/xterm (xterm-203) (install error)

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 6.1.  I hadnt even gotten to configuring with
X, so I was surprised there was a problem there.  the command tat generated
the error was:

   portpgrade -arR


I'm guessing other people will also be getting this error soon.

bktr.ko is for Conexant (formerly Rockwell) Booktree (Fussion) 8x8/8x9 based

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but it does not appear to be working 
correctly. I named the file nobom.sh and put it in the same directory 
as the files I want to convert. I also set the program permission to 
0755.

typing the p[program name does nothing; I have to precede it with 
'perl'. Even then, it does not appear to work correctly. In the 
following example, the file is parsed, but not converted.

perl nobom.sh testfile

Am I doing something incorrectly here?

Are you doing "GET" from each machine, or
comparing GET to PUT? Get has always been a lot
faster then PUT. Put a monitor on the LAN and
look for weird sending patterns. The 4.x FTP
servers will stop altogether if you set the
window under 1500 bytes. I don't know if its the
server app or the stack, but its probably the
specific application, as HTTPD seems not to have
such problems. I think ftp was originally written
by a chimp and no-one has really bothered to ever
fix it (much like nfs). Its quite possible that
socket changes in 5.x made a kludgy
implementation not work as well as it used to.

Depending on what you'd like to do, GNU readline may be a fine solution to your
situation.  Otherwise, getch(stdin) with a bit of code to "cook" DEL/BS/CR/NL,

I got a bit further by installing the port for getline

a single parameter. (Look at man getline)

#include 
#include 

int main() {
char line[10]="test";

getline(line);
printf("%s", line);

return 0;

I also noticed that this code actually doesn't work...I'm not sure why 
either but it doesn't output what gets typed.  Notice that the 'now'

That'll read a file from stdin, remove the BOM from the beginning of the

Removing BOM from UTF-8

[Gerard Seibert]

I have a large number of text files created in MS Word and saved in
UTF-8 format. Unfortunately, MS Word adds the BOM to each file. I need
to remove the BOM.

Information regarding BOM and UTF-8 can be found here:

http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html
http://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-utf8-bom

A brief excerpt:

It has also been suggested to use the UTF-8 encoded BOM (0xEF 0xBB 0xBF)
as a signature to mark the beginning of a UTF-8 file. This practice
should definitely not be used on POSIX systems for several reasons:

* On POSIX systems, the locale and not magic file type codes define
 the encoding of plain text files. Mixing the two concepts would add a
 lot of complexity and break existing functionality.

* Adding a UTF-8 signature at the start of a file would interfere
 with many established conventions such as the kernel looking for “#!” at
 the beginning of a plaintext executable to locate the appropriate
 interpreter.

* Handling BOMs properly would add undesirable complexity even to
 simple programs like cat or grep that mix contents of several files into
 one.

It has been suggested that a script could be written to eliminate the
BOM from a file(s). My script writing skills suck. I have been unable to
locate one using Google, so I was hoping that someone might know where I
could either locate such a program, or perhaps give me an idea on how to
script one.

Thanks!

Does this have to be SIP based? If you're looking for the simplest 
solution for IP based conferencing, what about skype?

I read the article at Onlamp about printing for the impatient.
Installed apsfilter and samba on my old hp netserver so I'd
be able to print to an hp 722c deskjet printer connected to
an xp box. 


I don't have a fix to your apsfilter issue, but if you you are 
interested in another possible printing solution... try:


http://www.lanside.net/article.php?story=20031007161002250

It works well for me.  And is simple to setup.


Gimp-print was also installed. Ghostscript was
already installed. I ran /usr/local/share/apsfilter/./SETUP
& thought I had it whipped. That's where the fun started.
Apparently I've missed something along the way, since the
print job never gets sent to the xp box. I also found out
at linuxprinting.org that the recommended hp 722c driver
is pnm2ppa. There was only one section in the install script
that mentioned that driver, 10) PPA printer, so I chose that.
It plugs it into the setup, but when I try to print a test
page, I get ERROR: additional filter 'pnm2ppa' not found.
I found the driver at linuxprinting.org & downloaded it.
How do I go about using it? Is there a way to compile it
into ghostscript? I have ghostscript-gnu-nox11-7.07_14 &
the apsfilter setup script found it & didn't complain.
Do I need to install another more complete version? I know
if I install ghostscript-afpl, I'll also have to recompile
& reinstall apsfilter with the proper make options. When
I choose the more generic just plain deskjet printer driver,
the script accepts it, and when I try to print a test page,
there's no complaining about the driver like when I try the
ppa driver. Test page is created, supposedly sent to the
xp printer with even a speed, average around 950 kb/s, but
I see where it only goes to stdin. I'm definitely not a
programmer, but another filter, ghostscript, something, has
to relay it to stdout, is that correct?
So, I could use some pointers on this. If anyone interested
in answering needs more info, I'll be glad to plug it in to
a reply. Like smb.conf, apsfilterrc, & so forth. Thanks.

What are you using to transfer the files? ftp, scp, nfs, something else?

-Glenn



Network have been changed and the problem is still the same. So I
thought it was a network problem. Then I installed an other FreeBSD on a
different computer and plugged it in a completely different network and
the problem is still here. That's why I think there is a thing to
configure on the BSD system but I don't know why.

That's why I am looking here for someone who knows this problem and who
will be able to help me.

Thank you for your answers

just start mysql after removing the database, i.e.

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh stop
rm -R /var/db/mysql
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server.sh start

That's it. Now you have a fresh clean database. The password of the root

Check to see if anything has it open currently.  "netstat -a -f unix" will
do that for you.  Then rename it.  Then wait a week before unlinking it.

Odd file created in /

[Mike Loiterman]

I have a file in / called -P.  It is a socket file I believe I created by
mistake while trying to get mysql, spamassassin, or something similar to
work. 

How can I check for sure to make sure it isn't something important?

Re: Firefox 1.5.0.1 port

Hello,

   I have installed the firefox 1.5.0.1 browser port -- the
latest version -- but everytime uses the pc speaker and I
get a constant "beep!, beep!, beep!".

   Anyone knows the solution to this problem?.

   I've searched in preferences and about:config url, but
nothing seems to be the right option to disable the constant
beep. Also, google doesn't have information about this problem.

Best regards,

You can first do

sysctl hw.syscons.bell=0

in a terminal, or:

echo "hw.syscons.bell=0">>/etc/sysctl.conf

But obviously, the origin of the problem is elsewhere. Try freebsd-
