Amavis-stats Not working
Hi, This is my first time postinf to this list so bare with me if I am doing it wrong or let me know how I can improve my questions in the future. I currently have postifx+mysql+amavis running on a FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE machine. uname output: FreeBSD got.sucked-in.com 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #0: Fri Jan 12 10:40:27 UTC 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 I installed the amavis-stats port (security/amavis-stats) so I can produce webpages on what exactly postfix is doing pertaining to rejecting messages on what basis - spam/virus etc. I have done some reading and though amavis-stats was for me. I installed it with 'make install clean' and added the appropriate lines to my apache config to get the webpage to show. The webpage shows but it shows the following errors under Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Yearly Graphs: amavis-stats::error: rrd_graph(): 127 amavis-stats::error: rrd_graph(): 127 I have tried googling but cannot come up with much, has anyone had this problem and knows how to remedy it? I have also tried the mailgraph port with similar rrd_graph errors so I am wondering if it is a problem with that specific tool on FreeBSD. Any help would be much appreciated.

I've been following this thread because I was trying to set up XDMCP. I ended up getting the TightVNC/Gnome Remote Desktop to work properly, but I would much rather have XDMCP. So far, I log in as root, open a terminal, and use the gdmsetup process to get the Gnome Login Window Preferences configuration dialog. I then click on the Remote tab and select Same as Local from the drop down menu. A button named Configure XDMCP should appear at the bottom of the window. When clicked, a bunch of miscellaneous options are shown, but note the UDP port 177. That should be open on the firewall along with ports 6000 through 6005 (or something like that). I simply used the defaults. Next, click on the Security tab at the top of the dialog window (after closing the Configure XDMCP dialog). I unchecked the Deny TCP connections to Xserver (though I think this is not necessary). Then, click on the bottom button named Configure X Server. You need to have at least one Xserver available for remote connections. This is where I get stuck. Using Xming on Windows XP, I was able to connect to the Xserver and get the grey root screen, but that is it. Also, I am using GDM as a display manager. I have found no good HOWTO's yet, so help would be appreciated. The Help is fairly descriptive, but does not walk you through the process. Finally, the X manual pages describe how to setup XDM, but so far I have not tried that approach. Hopefully this is helpful to the original poster of this thread. -Michael S.

Swap size
Hi, I plan to setup FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE on my Core Duo laptop with 1GB of RAM. The handbook says ideal swap size is 2xRAM, so should I use 2GB of swap ? This seems a bit huge to me, I never used more than 400MB on Linux. If so, is there a limit of swap partition size (or number) on i386 (for Linux it's 2GB per partition and 32 partitions max, but I don't know for FreeBSD) ? I plan to use two slices so I can have 2x1GB of swap anyway, I'm just curious :-) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The problem:

system% problem) top shows more than 60% of the CPU time is spent on system:
I would first try to determine if the problem is with your application OR
apache+OS+configuration combo you have here.
- get rid of your application altogether - does apache behave the same way
(without clients hitting it)? If yes, dont worry about your app at all for now
- apache shouldn't load your system like this.
- If load with no-own-app-and-no-clients is ok, use ab to generate some load on
the server , on plain html pages. what happens then?
- I am not sure what would the best way to test PHP load...but there may be out
there some test framework / standard php applications that can be used as a
point of reference...
- you can run
ktrace httpd -X
and start using your app, and see if you get anything interesting in the output
I had to lower MaxClients on apache substancially from 128 to 32, or loads
would quickly go to 40+. (Other servers with dual cpus instead of quad and
apache 1.3 on freebsd 6.0 don't have this problem)
something is fishy here , I've had (have? ) Apache boxen (i386 though )
with several hundred children allowed (well, big enough that i had to change
the build defaults ), and it works fine. (i am not comparing apps, of course,
but the server behaviour is what is interesting)

For the bin, share and lib directories do the following: 1. chmod -R +x dirname 2. chmod -R -s dirname 3. chmod -R -t dirname 4. chmod -R +r dirname 7. Download the license and install on Windows or Linux (not FreeBSD) 8. Copy ~/.ActiveState/ActiveState.lic and place in ~/.ActiveState directory 9.

Haskell and nox11
I need to install darcs on my server, and it requires Haskell (ghc) which in turn seems to require the x11 system which is not installed on my headless sever.

Use something like ``-afrRPv''. Force upgrade of all ports, their dependants and dependencies (recursively), build a package of the the newly compiled port, and do it verbosely. Or just use ``-arRPv'' if you do not want to rebuild or reinstall current ports (while still building packages). -Michael S.

My main server went down and the backup server collected all the mail. When the main came online the backup has not forwarded the mail from the backup server to the main server. I have even tried the flush command. What could be wrong. I will include my postconf file. canonical_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/canonical_maps command_directory = /usr/local/sbin config_directory = /usr/local/etc/postfix content_filter = smtp-amavis:[127.0.0.1]:10024 daemon_directory = /usr/local/libexec/postfix debug_peer_level = 2 header_checks = regexp:/usr/local/etc/postfix/header_checks html_directory = no mail_owner = postfix mailq_path = /usr/local/bin/mailq manpage_directory = /usr/local/man mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain, mydomain = XXX.com myhostname = XXX.XXX.com mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8,76.215.134.134 mynetworks_style = host newaliases_path = /usr/local/bin/newaliases queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix readme_directory = no relay_domains = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/relay_domains relay_recipient_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/relay_recipients sample_directory = /usr/local/etc/postfix sendmail_path = /usr/local/sbin/sendmail setgid_group = maildrop smtpd_client_restrictions = check_client_access cidr:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sinokorea.cidr permit smtpd_recipient_restrictions = reject_unauth_pipelining, reject_non_fqdn_recipient, reject_unknown_recipient_domain, permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination, reject_rbl_client list.dsbl.org, reject_rbl_client sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10023 unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 virtual_alias_domains = .com,.com virtual_alias_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/virtual_alias The relay domain reads xxx.com ok xxx.com ok 192.168.2.145 ok Thanks for the help Darrell ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Any luck with Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop USB mouse?
Hi, I'm trying to get a Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop working on a Mac Pro running today's -STABLE amd64. The Desktop has a single wireless puck that supports a keyboard and a mouse. The puck has two connectors, a usb dongle and a old-fashioned mouse connector (din-9?). I've had the set working with -STABLE i386 on normal pc hardware but only if I hooked up both the usb and the mouse connector. The mac pro only supports usb hardware. The mouse shows up in dmesg as ums0: Microsoft Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop\M-. 1.00, rev 2.00/17.17, addr 3, iclass 3/1 and a moused gets started for it automagically (presumably by usbd). Plugging in a wired usb mouse works fine. I've enabled USB_DEBUG and tried fiddling various sysctl knobs (hw.usb.ums.debug, hw.usb.ukbd.debug, hw.usb.debug) and I kind of think that the mouse might not even be talking out of the puck's usb connector but out of the standard mouse connector. Both the mouse and the keyboard work fine on the Mac using stock OS X and also after loading Microsoft's drivers. Is it possible that the puck needs to somehow be told to route the mouse out the usb connector? Any other suggestions?

my arquitecture is...
I have a COMPAQ Presario (laptop) V2615LA with an AMD Sempron 1.83Ghz, 40 GB HD, 256 MB RAM, I have the i386 arquitecture CD-ROM, I tried to install it, I see the FreeBSD boot menu (the one in console mode, with FreeBSD drown in white), I choose 1 (default), and in the init scripts, it stuck in a line that says: Timecounter tick every 1.000 msec and the CD light turn off (the CD-ROM drive isn't reading anything) and the HD led stays on (like there is something reading the disk, and I press ENTER, ESC, I waited once almost two hours, but nothing) I also tried the same CD-ROM in a PC (desktop) with Intel Celeron 2.0Ghz, 80 HD, 256 RAM and it runs perfectly (so the CD is ok), but I am out almost always so I need to have FreeBSD in my notebook. I installed throught my PC FreeBSD in an external HD (it connects via USB), I plugged in my notebook, boot from external HD and its the same as the CD-ROM, it stucks in Timecounter tick every 1.000 msec, but the external HD runs perfectly in the Desktop I saw the README file in the CD and it says: FreeBSD supports COMPAQ/HP Alpha (alpha), Intel AMD (i386)... so I tried downloading the alpha arquitecture ISO (because I have a COMPAQ), but when I boot from CD it happens anything (well, like it tries to read something but it doesn't appears anything) and it go right to Windows. is there another arquitecture I should try? (like amd64 (but my CPU is not 64)) should I go to loader prompt and make some commands? is freeBSD not avaiable for some notebooks (because the drivers, or the brand)? should I format all the HD and install FreeBSD in the hole disk?

This really isn't a FreeBSD question, it's a postfix question.
