Re: Improvement to IPFilter / nfsd in FBSD (6.2+?)
Garrett Cooper : Hello, Just wondering if anyone has IPFilter / nfsd setup properly on their boxes with any beta versions of FBSD. I am having loads of issues transferring large files (~300MB apiece) or issues transferring a large number of smaller files (3MB ~ 10MB apiece) from a FBSD 6.1 client to a FBSD 6.1 server, where it transfers part of the files, then cp / mv get stuck indefinitely on the client system. The stuck cp / mv processes cause the client to hang on reboot, and then terminate before all of the buffers are written to disk (which forces fsck on next boot). Did you try to use tcp transport with NFS ? See the '-T' option of mount_nfs(8). See also the -i option (Make the mount interruptible).

First, is this really necessary since the package does compile and secondly, who or what is this 'AC_PACKAGE_NAME'? AC_PACKAGE_NAME is a macro that is defined by autoconf. AFAIK, if such a message appears during compilation, the wrong version of autoconf is being used. It would be interesting to know if you compile a port, because in this case the dependency is wrong. If you downloaded a source tarball from a website, you should check the requirements what the package needs to compile successfully. autoconf and automake should be listed there, too. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: cvsup'dating several machines
I will soon update FreeBSD on several machines from 4.11 to 5.5, they are all at the same level of 4.11. I would like to save network bandwidth, would it be OK/enough if I cvsup one machine and then copy /usr/src from that opne to the others? Hi Olivier, If you run an infrastructure of multiple FreeBSD machines, then you should consider building a local CVSup mirror. This way, you'll prevent the error-prone and tedious process copying /usr/src from one machine to the others by hand. Plus, with a local update server, you make sure all your machines have the exact same FreeBSD sources. You can also use this machine not only for CVSup, but for all your ports repository, thus saving even more bandwith. Not to mention the speed increase every time you run cvsup. It's way faster to cvsup on the local LAN then from the internet. To get you started, check out this article from O'Reilly ONLamp's author Michael Lucas at http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2001/08/30/Big_Scary_Daemons.html Now, we've made several modifications to the above article to include a generic update user on our machines which uses scponly(8) and sudo(8) with ssh keys to encrypt all of our CVS and porteasy(8) updates. It also permits you to delegate the cvsup(1) of the machines to other admins without giving them the root password. If you're interested, I can send you the documentation. Have fun!

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.

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. Note also that the book has now been released for free download in PDF form. Instead of downloading the changed pages, you may prefer to download the entire book. See http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/ for more information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing?

A vague or generic subject such as your's frequently gets skipped and your chances of solving your problem lessen. That said, herein I contradict myself by trying to answer your initial problem, but I have some experience with what you are apparently trying to do and would like to help. Unfortunately, acting as a print server for windows clients isn't always cut-and-dry.. The key with Samba+CUPS, is to NOT use any filters or drivers on the CUPS end of things. This is very important, as it will change your output if you're also using the windows drivers. You must add your printers via CUPS as 'RAW' queues, no driver. The process is outlined very well in the Samba documentation, and that too I would strongly recommend you do some more reading up on, but in the interest of sparking the desire to do so, here's an outline of the basic process required: 1 - Setup CUPS, add printers using RAW queues, Setup Samba, tell it to use cups for printing 2 - Setup a shared location for printer drivers from Samba, the share can be pretty much anywhere on your local FreeBSD filesystem, and can use all the options of any other file-share, but must be shared from Samba with the name 'print$'. Something similar to this inside your smb.conf should suffice: [print$] comment = Windows Client Printer Drivers path = /var/db/windows_printers browseable = yes guest ok = yes read only = yes write list = root Administrator @Domain Admins @Printer Admins 3 - Login from a Windows client, to the Samba server using an administrator login (as specified in the write list for print$). Goto the 'Printers' section, NOT the direct queue mapping, for example: \\samba1\Printers NOT \\samba1\some_printer. When in the printers folder, right-click the printer you wish to add the drivers to, and you can add them from the windows properties dialog like you would any printer. This will upload the drivers to the samba [print$] share for other clients to use. 4 - From another samba client running windows, goto \\samba1\some_printer and it will prompt if you wish to 'Connect to printer', simply say yes - and that client should use the windows drivers directly from the samba [print$] share without further prompting. There are some issues, and it's not just as simple as 4 easy steps... but this is the general process to go through, with a little reading from the Samba website/documentation you should be able to get it going.

Re: Upgrade apache
from memory... for apache: $ cd /usr/ports/www/apache20 $ make deinstall $ cd /usr/ports/www/apache22 $ make install you might need to upgrade your /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf as some of the directives have changed between 20 and 22. when you try to start apache it will let you know what's wrong. for php: $ cd /usr/ports/lang/php5 $ make install make sure you select 'apache' in the menu list, otherwise you'll be stuck with php5 as a cgi (who wants that?) of course, upgrading to php5 introduces it's own problems, aside from syntax changes in the language, you'll also need to upgrade all of your php5 and pecl modules: $ cd /usr/ports/lang/php5-extensions $ make install -g On 12/01/07, Tim Nilimaa [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, How do I upgrade apache-2.0.59 to apache22?

IIRC, they are not compatible. make deinstall apache20 make install apache22 rewrite your apache config files (they are even in a different folder than the old apache20 config files. New location: /usr/local/etc/apache22). You could add your LoadModules for php43 to apache22 or you could upgrade php after apache, and the installer scripts will add the correct LoadModule lines to your apache22 config files for you. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When the second client tries to connect, it fails. Actually, the ppp -background t30 on the client goes well, and says PPP enabled but then the client ppp dies, I presume because the server side ppp closed the connection. It appears that the problem is client IP number conflict. The server-side ppp.log shows that it tries to assign the first client's IP to the second client, and though ppp detects the conflict, it does not try to assign a different IP, even though a /25 is provided in the server's ppp.conf, and the client is configured to accept any IP. How can I get the pppoe provider to automatically assign a unique IP to each client that requests service? Also, what if my pool of available IPs has discontinuities, such as a.b.c.d/24 and then i.j.k.l/25 and w.x.y.z/22? I don't see how that can be accomodated in the set ifaddr line. Is there a more extensible mechanism for assigning client IPs? How many tun devices is a low-end P4 machine likely to support? Thank you!

Re: Recovering select files from a failing hard disk
On Jan 12, 2007, at 1:18 PM, Garrett Cooper wrote: 1. Can I bypass mounting or reading certain sections of the filesystem? Sure, if you boot off some other device or a CD-ROM. 2. Can I force part of a drive to be remapped to other sectors? Yes, but it is likely that modern drives will have automatically reassigned failing sectors already, until it ran out of spare sectors. If you've got an older SCSI system, you might try running your adaptor's BIOS utility and having it do a device verify; that will encourage the drive to remap problematic sectors. 3. Is there a backup superblock on the disk and what would it be? I know this feature exists on some filesystems, but I'm not sure if UFS is one of those filesystems. There are many backup superblocks kept on the disk; fsck -b 32 will try using the first alternate, but there will be others scattered about. You can run dumpfs to locate more, I believe. The reason for these questions is that I believe that the portion of my failing hard disk is involved with the statistics portion for the data slice or a series of directories. So, I want to grab the files off my disk and just dump the thing asap. OK. You might try doing a block-copy with dd to a new drive, and then trying to fsck or repair the data on that copy rather than trying to fix the filesystem on the failing drive... -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Serving windows print drivers with Samba+CUPS (Was: CUPS +)
1 - Setup CUPS, add printers using RAW queues, Setup Samba, tell it to use cups for printing 2 - Setup a shared location for printer drivers from Samba, the share can be pretty much anywhere on your local FreeBSD filesystem, and can use all the options of any other file-share, but must be shared from Samba with the name 'print$'. Something similar to this inside your smb.conf should suffice: [print$] comment = Windows Client Printer Drivers path = /var/db/windows_printers browseable = yes guest ok = yes read only = yes write list = root Administrator @Domain Admins @Printer Admins 3 - Login from a Windows client, to the Samba server using an administrator login (as specified in the write list for print$). Goto the 'Printers' section, NOT the direct queue mapping, for example: \\samba1\Printers NOT \\samba1\some_printer. When in the printers folder, right-click the printer you wish to add the drivers to, and you can add them from the windows properties dialog like you would any printer. This will upload the drivers to the samba [print$] share for other clients to use. 4 - From another samba client running windows, goto \\samba1\some_printer and it will prompt if you wish to 'Connect to printer', simply say yes - and that client should use the windows drivers directly from the samba [print$] share without further prompting. There are some issues, and it's not just as simple as 4 easy steps... but this is the general process to go through, with a little reading from the Samba website/documentation you should be able to get it going.

/sbin/devfs -m $1 rule apply hide
/sbin/devfs -m $1 rule apply path null unhide
where $1 == the dev directory you mount within the chroot environment ...
This issue is currently biting users of /usr/ports/security/scponly
also, I believe.
I'm finding that recently-created scponlyc chroots do not permit sftp
login, although they do allow ftp login. The client symptom is just:
$ sftp [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Connecting to www...
Password:
Connection closed
$
The cause appears to be that recent versions of
/usr/libexec/sftp-server will complain about of lack of access to
/dev/null and exit, resulting in the closed connection witnessed by
the remote client.
The solution appears to be to create a devfs in the scponlyc chroot.
This is a little disappointing, as scponlyc used to be delightfully
lightweight and low-maintenance. At this point, my understanding is
that the devfs requirement means that now I must run a script at boot
time that iterates through a list of chroot'ed users and create dev
nodes within each jail. scponlyc jails were previously a
set-and-forget type of setup.
What is the proper mechanism for setting up an arbitrary number of
scponlyc chroots at boot time? /usr/share/examples/etc/devfs.conf
doesn't show an example of how to apply these rules to a non-default
dev path. I have chosen to put a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d.
In case other scponly users are reading this in the archives, the
manual method that works for me with 6.2-PRE and scponly-4.6_1 is:
# cd ~user
# mkdir -p dev
# mount_devfs devfs dev
# devfs -m dev rule -s 1 applyset
# devfs -m dev rule -s 2 applyset
One then sees:
# ls -l dev
total 0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel0, 6 Jan 12 17:15 null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel0, 12 Jan 10 07:57 random
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6 Jan 12 16:54 urandom@ - random
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel0, 7 Jan 10 15:57 zero
which is more than enough to appease /usr/libexec/sftp-server.
chroots created some months ago contain lib versions with numbers
typically one less, such as ./usr/lib/libssh.so.2 in the older
chroot, versus ./usr/lib/libssh.so.3 in the newer. The older
scponly chroots do net require devfs nodes! I suspect they will
eventually break though, given enough time.
Given that scponlyc provides a setup_chroot.sh script that provides
hooks for OS-specific chroot setup steps, would it help the port
maintainer to provide the shell script below? I have it installed
in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/scponlyc.sh.

Mapping USB ugen 802.11g adapter to ndis
All, I have a USB 802.11g (DLINK) adapter that I would like to use to access a wireless network. I've been able to download the Windows drivers, convert them in to the kernel module, and load the module. However, when I plug the adapter in, the ugen driver picks it up. Historically, when I've had a new device, I had to tweak the USB driver to recognize the manufacturer and model. However, in the case of ndis, I've only found /usr/src/sys/dev/if_ndis/if_ndis_usb.c, which doesn't seem to have such a list. Can anyone point me to how I can get the ndis driver to take ownership for the USB device in question? Or is USB NDIS support just not there yet? -Brian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If the username specified is simply +, then processes belonging to all users will be displayed. I know. I was thinking loudly of a way to extend this without having to hijack the entire keyboard. If/when we have a more featureful limiting mechanism, we can certainly leave 'u' as a key binding that works exactly the same as before, for compatibility reasons. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[OT] advice on wikis and bulletin boards
Strategic planning will be starting soon at my new place of employment, and I'd like to setup a place on our intranet to facilitate discussions and planning prior to meetings to reduce meeting times and make meetings more productive. This would be a new activity for this organization, so we'll start with just our own office. User permissions will be needed for security. I've used bulletin boards before (phpbb); but they don't seem to be well designed for group editing of documents. I've noticed that wiki's have become very popular; but I'm not sure how well they facilitate discussions. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? Thanks, Andrew L.

FYI, I think you are attacking the problem the wrong way:
1. Don't use the devel/automake19 port for development work with automake.
AFAIK, this port is not a full automake19 package, but a special port
of automake, which provides just barely enough automake support for
the Ports tree.
For local automake-based development, you should either use the
devel/gnu-automake port instead, or roll your own installation of
automake and friends, from a clean source tarball of automake-1.9.6
2. Why do you have to install automake19 for Subversion?
Does the devel/subversion port require it? I don't see a dependency
for automake in `ports/devel/subversion/Makefile'.

Gould I installed Apache and http://www.oddmuse.org/cgi-bin/wiki on FreeBSD. You have to install it in cgi-bin, create group www, and look at httpd.conf to see where files should be. I also used it to create a website http://www.bobmc.net/cgi-bin/Goalie.pl/WikiVerse There are tons of wikis available. The most famous is MediaWiki for Wikipedia. But oddmuse is only one Perl script that works anywhere. MoinMoin has a nice balance between eyecandy and ease of use. You see it on some open-source sites. I also like DokuWiki Since it is so easy to create wiki pages, the challenge is to prevent a spaghetti-ball forming. Read all about it starting at http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?WelcomeVisitors where it all started Also, a wiki is social software which some people are shy about using. Setting one up is like boiling a frog, you have to do it slowly. For minutes of meetings you can setup a mailing list like this one but in notification mode. For documentation, several dedicated wikis can be setup. Think about a page naming scheme that is consistent for your purpose.

Re: [OT] advice on wikis and bulletin boards
for group editing of documents. I've noticed that wiki's have become very popular; but I'm not sure how well they facilitate discussions. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? I've found them very useful. If you already have PHP and mysql installed, I encourage you to use Mediawiki. I resisted installing it because it does so much stuff that I assumed it would be a pain to set up, but it turns out to be one of the easiest packages I have ever installed, stick it in a directory visible to the web server, point your browser at the startup page, answer a few questions, and poof! you have your wiki. Someone else noted that wikis can turn into spaghetti balls which is true. It definitely helps if there is someone whose job it is to impose order on the wiki and reorganize it when it gets too messy. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
