That doesn't sound like a backup to me. dd isn't a backup program, and CDs are not normally things you back up. But they have a sector size of 2 kB, so you will need to transfer in multiples of 2 kB. As I said above, 64 kB or larger is a good idea. Use the conv=sync operation to transfer the last incomplete block correctly.

Getting xmms to use glib-2
hi there, i've rebuilt everything that used glib-1.2* to use glib-2.10.* without a problem, with the exception of xmms (multimedia/xmms). xmms keeps installing glib-1.2. Then, glib-config is run, shows the 1.2 version, which doesn't match the latest package (2.10.2, which does NOT support glib-config, but pkg-config instead) and the whole build process bails out (capture below). Is it not possible to build xmms with glib-2? I tried setting the env GLIB_CONFIG to 2.10.2 with no luck. Should I uninstall glib-2, install xmms with glib1.2, then reinstall glib-2?

RE: apache not starting: FreeBSd 5.4
yes you are wrong. Read this
Assigning a Host name to your FBSD system.
Your FBSD operating system has internal software applications (like
sendmail for one) that needs to know the fully qualified domain name
of the PC it's running on. You do this by adding the option
statement hostname= to /etc/rc.conf.
This is the format to use.
thisPCname.fakeDOMAINname.tld
Where thisPCname came be any name you want to identify this
particular PC on your LAN. Since the goal of this Installation Guide
is to build a FBSD gateway server, the name of this PC should be
gateway.
Where .fakeDOMAINname can be any name you want as long as it's not a
registered domain name on the public Internet (unless of course it's
registered to you). Using FBSDyourlastname is a safe fake domain
name to use here. So if your name was Tom Jones, you should use
fbsdjones.
Where .tld can be any of the standard TLD's currently in use. Such
as .com or .usa or .info or .cc, but since .com is the most commonly
used TLD, I recommend using .com.
gateway.fbsdjones.com is a very acceptable fake host name to use.
ee /etc/rc.conf
and add this option statement to the file:
hostname="gateway.fbsdjones.com"
Save the changed file and reboot your system for your edit changes
to take effect.
When the reboot stops at the login prompt, the line displayed just
above it will now contain your host name you just added to rc.conf.
Installer Note: If you have an official registered domain name that
you want to use for your email sendmail server, then use that in the
hostname= statement. Example, if my registered domain name was
cyberman.com then hostname=cyberman.com is what I would code.
What ever hostname you use, for example gateway.fbsdjones.com, in
the httpd.conf file you would use www.fbsdjones.com and you will
also have to add gateway.fbsdjones.com and fbsdjones.com to
/etc/hosts file because you have no private dns server.

If having an @ in a hostname isn't illegal, it ought to be. I can't be
bothered to start searching the RFCs for you, but I fail to see how it
can be legal since it would make email address parsing pretty much
impossible; possibly URLs as well. Try cathyatalfa.alfanet.com or
cathy-at-alfa.alfanet.com, though the atalfa/at-alfa seems pretty
redundant given the rest of the domain.

Settings for virtual hosts, which allow Web requests to be sent to # different IP addresses or hostnames and have them handled by the # same Apache server process. # # Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many # of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the # server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin # with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/foo.log" # with ServerRoot set to "/usr/local/apache" will be interpreted by the # server as "/usr/local/apache/logs/foo.log". # ### Section 1: Global Environment # # The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache, # such as the number of concurrent requests it can handle or where it # can find its configuration files. # # # ServerType is either inetd, or standalone. Inetd mode is only supported on # Unix platforms. # ServerType standalone # # ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's # configuration, error, and log files are kept. # # NOTE! If you intend to place this on an NFS (or otherwise network) # mounted filesystem then please read the LockFile documentation # (available at http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#lockfile>); # you will save yourself a lot of trouble. # ServerRoot "/usr/local" # # The LockFile directive sets the path to the lockfile used when Apache # is compiled with either USE_FCNTL_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT or # USE_FLOCK_SERIALIZED_ACCEPT. This directive should normally be left at # its default value. The main reason for changing it is if the logs # directory is NFS mounted, since the lockfile MUST BE STORED ON A LOCAL # DISK. The PID of the main server process is automatically appended to # the filename. # #LockFile /var/run/httpd.lock # # PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process # identification number when it starts. # PidFile /var/run/httpd.pid # # ScoreBoardFile: File used to store internal server process information. # Not all architectures require this. But if yours does (you'll know because # this file will be created when you run Apache) then you *must* ensure that # no two invocations of Apache share the same scoreboard file. # ScoreBoardFile /var/run/httpd.scoreboard # # In the standard configuration, the server will process httpd.conf (this # file, specified by the -f command line option), srm.conf, and access.conf # in that order. The latter two files are now distributed empty, as it is # recommended that all directives be kept in a single file for simplicity. # The commented-out values below are the built-in defaults. You can have the # server ignore these files altogether by using "/dev/null" (for Unix) or # "nul" (for Win32) for the arguments to the directives. # #ResourceConfig /usr/local/etc/apache/srm.conf #AccessConfig /usr/local/etc/apache/access.conf # # Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out. # Timeout 300 # # KeepAlive: Whether or not to allow persistent connections (more than # one request per connection).

Re: pkg_add -r openoffice Error: FTP Unable to get ftp:
One of benefits of the BSD's at least my BSD, the Free one, is anyone can get a pretty cool workstation by doing: pkg_add -r xorg pkg_add -r kde[-lite] pkg_add -r anything-else-that-strikes-my-fancy with a couple of configuration commands in between. I suspect the Linux people that use RPM will have the same comment. Frankly it never occurred to me to do anything else. If there is a package link from the FreeBSD site, in the future, that is what I will use, and deal with any problems that arise. This because I trust that the FreeBSD port/package maintainers will have taken care of any platform differences. Over the years, the committers have certainly earned that trust. I have no such confidence with OOo. Unlike X[org] I do not have to have it so, if after I learn to use it, on going installs are more trouble that I deem them to be worth, I will lose it. My only comments were to thank the poster who mentioned the package, perhaps he got it from the "approved" site; and to suggest to the FreeBSD maintainers OOo would get more use if there was a wrapper port (named per chance openoffice) that would just do the right thing. There have been a few products that were so good they overcame all obstacles to their use. Perhaps OOo is one. I do not mean this to be rant, it is just my opinion with a mild plea to the FreeBSD package maintainers. This thread dies here. I just felt I should explicitly explain what I tried to say the first time and to thank the folks that tried to guide me to the correct package. On Mon, 1 May 2006, Donald J.

I'm trying to run BIND inside a jail on FreeBSD 6.0, and I'm

Starting named.
And then it doesn't start...
(I realize that BIND already runs in a chroot'd environment, but I'm
running a second copy of BIND on an existing development server as a
secondary test environment.)
The problem looks like it originates in /etc/rc.d/named:
# Mount a devfs in the chroot directory if needed
#
umount ${named_chrootdir}/dev 2>/dev/null
devfs_domount ${named_chrootdir}/dev devfsrules_hide_all
devfs -m ${named_chrootdir}/dev rule apply path null unhide
devfs -m ${named_chrootdir}/dev rule apply path random unhide
I tried mounting the devfs outside the jail to the jail's
/var/named/dev, and then commenting out these lines above, but named
will still not start. Does anyone have any suggestions?
BIND is trying to setup a chroot(8) before it starts. If you're
already inside a jail, then IMHO it is a little overkill (i.e. Running
BIND in a chroot inside a jail).
Check the BIND related values in rc.conf(5). The chroot(8) startup is
triggered via this one:
named_chrootdir="/var/named"# Chroot directory (or "" not to auto-chroot it)
So try setting it to
named_chrootdir=""
and it should disable the chroot code from the startup script.
Of course, if you still need to chroot(8) your named(8) install inside
your jail, then you're at the same point. Consider running another
jail perhaps? Or use BIND's view feature.
Hope this helps,
David

Patrick

I think i did try making/installing only this particular piece, but failed to do anything on reboot, so i thought "what the hell, just build|install everything".

You may need to add the major version number ie pkg_add -r openoffice.org-2.0 may work.

PCI Express
After a succesful installation on an AMD64, I started configuring X environment; I use an ATI Radeon X700Super PCI Express, which is not listed by "xorgconfig"; I got help from an italian FreeBSD user, and I modified "xorg.conf". When I startx I get this error: (WW) RADEON: No matching device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:0:1) found (EE) No device detected Fatal server error: no screens found This is a part of my xorg.conf, modified according to the suggestions of the italian user.

Re: Antivirus to scan files before going onto a Windows machine: clamav?
I use Clamav on my mail gateway (along with Sophos) and it works very well, quite a few times catching new virus outbreaks quicker than Sophos. (All wrapped up with MailScanner which also calls SpamAssassin for me). BUT email/http isn't the only way to infect a windows PC so you really to have a solution where the problem is - on the PC. Perimeter AV solutions for Windows don't go anywhere near solving the problem. There's http://www.clamwin.com/, or many commercial solutions that aren't too expensive, AVG do a 'free' home solution. www.f-prot.com is the one I use at work. Kapersky is good also -- Martin On 4/29/06, Jim Stapleton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Anyone have experience with ClamAV? Good, Bad, Ugly? Should I use something else, or is the only good alternative pay/expensive (such as avast)? Am I better at leaving the antivirus stuff to the Windows machine (which has McAfee Enterprise)? Background: System lags occasionally, and has crashed a few times, and is getting disk errors (both HDs, one IDE, one SATA started this at the same time). I suspect the motherboard, but can't be certain, could be Mem or PSU. Could also be virus. So, I want to scan my backed up files while reinstalling Windows on the other machine, before letting them go back home to play.
