I just built the August Monthly Snapshots for amd64 and i386 with no boot floppy issues so I'm guessing whatever it is you're customizing is having some sort of an impact on the boot floppy. Do you actually use the floppies at all? If not I'd suggest you just add "NO_FLOPPIES=" to the command line when you do the release build so it doesn't even bother trying to create the floppies. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | [EMAIL PROTECTED] there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel | signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: The Elephant file system
Andrew Falanga wrote: Hi, I was doing some research for file systems at work and came across some semi-technical papers on a file system called elephant. Since this paper mentions that the designers first tried their implementation on FreeBSD 2.2.7, I thought I'd ask here if anyone has ever heard of this file system. If so, is this something that is available in FreeBSD or is this just an interesting academic exercise? If this isn't is use, why? Also, if not in use, is there another file system (by another name) that does something similar? This file system sounds like a great idea. A link to get the paper I mentioned is here: http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Alistair_Veitch/papers/elephant-hotos/index.html Andy Hi Andy, I only read the abstract but this sounds like what Google do with Gmail. Perhaps this paper is where they got the idea for it. [Did Gmail start before or after 2001? I have no idea.] Sounds like a neat idea, as long as it doesn't become the main file system, because it definitely isn't for me. I have small hard drives and no money. Disk space is definitely a scarce resource for me. Sigh.

Problem: Apache chroots but MySQL doesn't
Hi all, I've got an unusual problem with my server. It just restarted after a power cut. Everything came back up apart from MySQL. The server refuses to chroot it. %sudo /uetc/rc.d/mysql-server start Password: [: chroot: unexpected operator Starting mysql. %chroot: /jail/mysql: Operation not permitted The first error is normal. It doesn't seem to cause a problem. It's the 'Operation not permitted' error that bothers me. I've tried a manual chroot: %sudo chroot /jail/mysql /bin/sash Stand-alone shell (version 3.7) > exit % No problem there. The startup script is the one installed by the mysql51-server port, except for the 'command' line which now reads: command="chroot /jail/mysql mysqld_safe" It looks as if the script isn't running as root. It must be though, because when I change the command variable to "chroot /home/`whoami`", it throws an error because /home/root doesn't exist. I don't think the chroot binary itself is a problem as it started Apache just fine. So, I'm out of ideas. Help please? TiA, Adam J Richardson ps.

If you want non native plug in to work on your native browsers you must install nspluginwrapper. However for purposes of youtube on goggle video I would recommend just snapping them with youtube-db or clive. You would get filename.flv which you can watch with MPlayer of VLC. Clive can further convert that file to something else like mpeg. There are 5 different ways to watch youtube before you rich for Flush 7 which hangs my computer anyway so it is gone. I would try also this swfdec Make sure you updated your port three since it is released 6th of Avgust. Enjoy! Thanks. The tips you gave me is definitely waaay more than I bargained for. :) Thing is, I found a page in the DesktopBSD wiki that talks about making linux version of the flash plugin work with native Opera. It's here: http://desktopbsd.net/wiki/doku.php?id=doc:browserplugins The relevant part of the guide is as follows: "native Opera9 with Flash Opera 9 supports now Linux Flashplugin, so you can just install from ports, portinstall opera portinstall opera-linuxplugins portinstall linux-flashplugin" The ports are all there and they do install, but it doesn't work. I simply installed the linux-opera and it's all fine now.

Instead you should be looking at the number of transactions/second and the average time/transaction. This tells how long processes are waiting before the disk controller can service the I/O, and you should compare those numbers to your performance requirements or your expectations from the hardware.

I see the translations and stablished traffic in pftop and the traffic flow using tcpdump, how can i know what computer is causing this traffic, looking for the mac address in every pc should be the last alternative :-( pftop: tcp In 192.168.206.68:1612 201.212.189.217:22512ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 03:42:20 20:22:46 24 7133 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1612 217.216.58.247:8472 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 01:33:52 22:30:49 280 230542 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1612 217.216.58.247:8472 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 01:33:52 22:30:49 280 230542 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1648 24.232.133.100:45157 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 01:33:27 22:28:25 29 6373 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1648 24.232.133.100:45157 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 01:33:27 22:28:25 29 6373 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1652 200.127.48.74:21549 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 01:33:22 22:29:49 8647436 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1652 200.127.48.74:21549 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 01:33:22 22:29:49 8647436 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1689 217.216.58.247:8472 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 04:28:05 19:35:30 361 308847 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1689 217.216.58.247:8472 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 04:28:05 19:35:30 361 308847 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1724 201.235.228.59:17870 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 03:40:39 20:21:16 29 9110 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1724 201.235.228.59:17870 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 03:40:39 20:21:16 29 9110 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1803 24.232.133.100:45157 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 02:39:41 21:22:16 29 6394 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1803 24.232.133.100:45157 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 02:39:41 21:22:16 29 6394 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1812 201.231.105.85:11245 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 03:39:15 20:22:11 29 6924 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1812 201.231.105.85:11245 ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 03:39:15 20:22:11 29 6924 tcp Out 192.168.206.68:1835 217.217.200.203:17061ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 02:39:14 21:22:12 27 5520 tcp In 192.168.206.68:1835 217.217.200.203:17061ESTABLISHED:ESTABLISHED 02:39:14 21:22:12 27 5520 ... hundred of additional lines. tcpdump: tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on fxp0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes 15:57:42.084566 IP 190-48-228-10.speedy.com.ar.17965 > 192.168.206.68.2857: . ack 596211574 win 65535 15:57:42.168104 IP 118.Red-80-39-36.staticIP.rima-tde.net.36216 > 192.168.206.68.2834: P 1891454167:1891455619(1452) ack 2551747276 win 64309 15:57:42.178015 IP 192.168.206.68.2834 > 118.Red-80-39-36.staticIP.rima-tde.net.36216: . ack 1468 win 17424 15:57:42.195437 IP 192.168.206.68.2857 > 190-48-228-10.speedy.com.ar.17965: . 1:1461(1460) ack 0 win 17520 15:57:42.228560 IP 192.168.206.68.2857 > 190-48-228-10.speedy.com.ar.17965: P 1461:2921(1460) ack 0 win 17520 15:57:42.245113 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: . 2223585051:2223586503(1452) ack 3314120697 win 17424 15:57:42.278376 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: . 1452:2904(1452) ack 1 win 17424 15:57:42.343667 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: P 2904:2920(16) ack 1 win 17424 15:57:42.352077 IP 192.168.206.68.2857 > 190-48-228-10.speedy.com.ar.17965: P 2921:4381(1460) ack 0 win 17520 15:57:42.361303 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: . 2920:4372(1452) ack 1 win 17424 15:57:42.374727 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: P 4372:4380(8) ack 1 win 17424 15:57:42.478261 IP 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397 > 192.168.206.68.1914: . 1:1453(1452) ack 1452 win 11616 15:57:42.478275 IP 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397 > 192.168.206.68.1914: P 1453:1461(8) ack 1452 win 11616 15:57:42.481236 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: . ack 1461 win 17424 15:57:42.482575 IP 192.168.206.68.1914 > 84.122.171.232.dyn.user.ono.com.10397: . 4380:5832(1452) ack 1461 win 17424 15:57:42.484578 IP 192.168.206

The ports tree > was up to date, so I'm really not sure what I did wrong. :-) What you did wrong is that you didn't read the documentation. The symlinking you are talking about is very well explained in the Handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html (section 6.2.4), and thus all googling hard work and disenchantment you expressed publicly yesterday were not necessary. The further investigation of recent mailing lists history would show you that nspluginwrapper is easier to install and more reliable. When new user comes to FreeBSD (especially it he/she is a Linux convert), the first thing he/she has to learn is that official FreeBSD Handbook, articles, FAQs and mailing lists @freebsd.org are the places that contain 99.99% of answers to all imaginable questions. FreeBSD's documentation is one of its greatest strengths, so please take an advantage of it.

I'm not swapping.. cpu is mostly idle, so I figure it must be I/O performance. Just to confirm, is that what the following show? You're seeing upwards of 400 I/O transactions per sec, so your system is definitely I/O bound. Note that RAID-5 is not an ideal choice for a filesystem which is going to be used for balanced read-write operations-- it's best used for read-only or read-mostly purposes. You are probably using the default mbox mail format; you're likely to find that using maildir would work much better when running on a RAID-5 volume.

Oh well, yesterday I had a machine where I installed flash plugin 7 and linuxpluginwrapper but it did NOT work until I made symlinks to .so files (as given in the aforementioned article).

Re: Backspace
d.Z. wrote: Thanks for helping everybody. But actually I'm using Bourne shell on FreeBSD 6.1 just like the Solaris in lab, and the FreeBSD is freshly installed, I have checked .shrc and .profile, but nothing related to key bindings or stty's there, so what I thought it should be is: after I login -> [press backspace] -> ^H appears -> [press DEL] -> ^? appears in emacs -> [press backspace] -> oops, help appears stty can translate a small set of keystrokes into functions and gets used by the shell. In stty you can set the erase character to Ctrl-H. The shell uses the stty definitions for the keys. For historical reasons emacs uses it's own keybindings and they don't work well with the default keystrokes emitted by the syscons driver in FreeBSD. In particular emacs want's Ctrl-H to start the help system, "H" for help... But, CTRL-H is also the default ASCII code sent by the Backspace key. That's why backspace works fine in your shell and brings up help in emacs. There are at least three solutions to this problem. In the distant past some old terminals sent the ASCII code DEL (^? , or 0x7f) when the backspace key was pressed. Most modern terminals and terminal emulators can be setup to have this behaviour. In this case you can have stty use ^? as your erase character and have emacs respond to DEL by deleting the character before the point in the buffer. Then you can have FreeBSD send DEL when you press backspace by changing the keymap. $ man syscons $ man 1 kbdmap $ man 5 kbdmap $ ls -l /usr/share/syscons/keymaps | grep emacs To make the change permanent you would modify /etc/rc.conf $ grep keymap /etc/defaults/rc.conf will show you the variable you need to change. Disclaimer: I've never done it this way. Another method which involves changing the function of ^H in emacs but that makes it difficult to get the help system going. A short search of google for "emacs ^h backspace" will probably yield fruit. I used to do it this way and it was okay. I t really depends on how much you need the help system. As a long time Gnu Emacs users I can say that the best way to solve this problem is to an X11 aware emacs under X-Windows. In this state emacs completely bypasses the terminal, catching and interpreting the keystroke events from the X window system. Since X can say 'The user pressed "KeyBackspace" which has an ASCII code of 0x08 (Ctrl-H)' emacs can see that as a Backspace attempt and delete the appropriate character. Further more X can differentiate that keypress from "The user pressed 'H' while holding down Ctrl which gives an ASCII code of 0x08". Emacs gets complete information from the X-Windows system and can take the right action, starting the help system. -- Chris -- __o "All I was doing was trying to get home from work." _`\<,_ -Rosa Parks ___(*)/_(*)___ Christopher Sean Hilton pgp key: D0957A2D/f5 30 0a e1 55 76 9b 1f 47 0b 07 e9 75 0e 14 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

In all but the oldest DVD drives, region encoding is supposed to be enforced by the drive itself, not by your software. You can change the region code setting on your drive a few times, but there is a limit (5 times, I think). Have you succeeded at playing the same DVDs with VLC on a different O/S? > Most of the American DVDs I try to play gets a region encoding error > and quits. I have no problems with foreign DVDs (from other > countries). Most American movies are marked with a specific region code. In some countries (China for example), it is common practice to publish movies marked to be playable in all regions. And of course, you may be playing movies from the region your drive is set to. > Is this standard behavior for VLC on BSD or am I doing something wrong? I haven't actually tried to play an out-of-region DVD, so I don't know from direct experience, but I wouldn't expect to succeed if I tried. As I said, the region protection is done by the drive itself. I hope I'm wrong, though.

Re: Flash
Very simple. Step 1 Install Linux compatibility layer Step 2 In your rc.conf file type linux_enable="yes" Step 3 UNINSTALL linuxpluginwrapper-20051113_8 if you installed in the past Step 4 Install nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.4_2 Step 5 Install Flush 7 from ports Step 6 when you type about:plugin into your Firefox it should list Flush Flush however hangs my system so if it is a video try by snapping it with clive (you get filename.flv) and then watching it with MPlayer or VLC. There is also swfdec 0.5.1 released 6th of August which is supposed completely to eliminate need for Flush.

If you are paging during normal operations your system performance will be terrible, so you want to make sure you have enough RAM that this does not happen. However, when a transient load spike comes in, would you prefer your system to slow down but keep working, or to kill off all your processes? Think of it as memory space insurance.

First of all you need to make phpmyadmin appear at an appropriate place in your web tree. That's what the package message is all about -- which you can see again by: pkg_info -Dx phpMyAdmin Note that you will need to /adapt/ the example to suit your own requirements -- the 'Allow from' line in particular. Remember to reload apache so that it picks up the new configuration. Once that stage is done you should be able to surf to http://hostname/phpmyadmin and see a page generated by the application. Now you need to deal with the second bit of configuration: modifying the example /usr/local/www/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php (which is an essentially empty file as installed by the port) to let you log into your databases etc. etc. This process is documented here: http://www.phpmyadmin.net/documentation/ You can either use the configuration script, or just write your own contents for config.inc.php Cheers, Matthew - -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate Kent, CT11 9PW -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGxdoa8Mjk52CukIwRCBSQAJ9Lg3EuRso0J1kKviHPiHocBayjgwCfZDx1 xghd17T3qJYruJS6jemyiyQ= =KDiW -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

"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.

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.

Remember that swap gets used for crash dumps and also for paging. Now, you may think that you want to keep your machine from paging and in one sense that is true. If you are so memory bound that it has to page just to run, you're going to be so slow that it seems to have froze (by today's standards).

There has been some discussion off-list, but just for the archives, the find command in question is indeed part of the daily checks by periodic(8). Off-topic, on the subject of replies helpful or otherwise (I tried to be polite originally - I'm not trying as hard now): The original poster had a reasonable question, and got two correct answers, from Hugo Silva (who said ``man periodic'') and me. He also got one wrong answer from Derek Ragona, who then replied to one of the correct answers with the above "I told you so", although in fact, looking at /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb as suggested would have made it immediately clear that this was the wrong answer (the command flags listed for the find command in the output of ps don't appear on any of the find commands in that script), and looking at /etc/crontab to check cronjobs (as originally suggested) around the start time of the command as listed in the OP's output (3:01am) would have suggested periodic daily (run at 0300 daily) as the culprit. grep -r find /etc/periodic/* would have shown one find command using the -xdev flag, in /etc/periodic/security/100.chksetuid which indeed turns out to invoke find with all the flags of the OP's mystery command. People come to this list for help: I know, because I'm often one of them. It would have taken a few seconds to verify the answer to this question rather than guess (the use of /likely/ in ``It is likely part of a rebuild'' is what made me suspect this was a guess), and certainly less time than it took to type a follow-up to a correct answer putting the OP back on the wrong track.

Kernel options for increasing connections/shared buffers in Postgres
Hi everyone, I'm running OpenNMS on 6.2-Release, and I get this error message when it, I think, tries to hit the postgres DB: FATAL: "Too many clients" My guess is I'm getting this because I can't increase max connections and shared buffers in postgresql.conf because I haven't added the kernel options they want, yet. I've never used Postgres before and my exposure to DB's in general is minimal. I read somewhere, I forget now, that in order to increase max connections and shared buffers in postgresql.conf, you're supposed to have the following options with these values in your kernel: SHMMAXPGS=65536 SEMMNI=40 SEMMNS=240 SEMUME=40 SEMMNU=120 It seems most of the docs for OpenNMS relate to linux or solaris. Are these values ok for FreeBSD? I notice in LINT there are more options: SEMMAP=31 SEMMSL=61 SEMOPM=101 SHMALL=1025 SHMMAX=(SHMMAXPGS *PAGE_SIZE+1) SHMMIN=2 SHMMNI=33 SHMSEG=9 I google them, but I'm not real sure what it all means when they're used in conjunction with one another. Should I be using any of them? If so, what value, since I'm not using the defaults for the one's postgres wants compiled in. Before I do this, I wanted to see if this was ok. This box has 512MB RAM, 1GB swap file and it won't be doing anything other than running postgres server8.1, tomcat 4.1 and opennms 1.2.9.

Following the basic portinstall of Tomcat on FreeBSD I did the following: 1. sudo cp /usr/local/tomcat5.5/server/lib/catalina-ant.jar /usr/local/share/java/apache-ant/lib 2. Made a sample project 3. set manager url in build.xml http://localhost:8180/manager"/> 4. Chnage permissions in tomcat cd /usr/local/tomcat5.5] sudo chown -R www webapps Once this was done I was able to compile the project and install it using: ant ant install I did notice that it created a new directory in webapps with the new application. So far so good. If I try to install it again I get an error stating that it is already installed. Again, so far so good. The problem that I have is if I make changes to the project and reload the application using ant reload I get the following output: reload: [reload] OK - Reloaded application at context path /hello This looks ok. However, when I run it, the changes to the project do not show up. If I look into the directory under webapps, the changes have not been moved over. I have to manually copy the contents from my build to webapps under tomcat. What I am doing wrong. I am sure that it is someting simple but do not seem to figure it out.

I don't want to be rude, and this just happens to be the message I'm responding to with a more general gripe, but there does seem to be quite a lot of guessing in answers on this list over the last few days, which isn't perhaps as helpful as it's intended to be. This is nothing to do with locate(1) - it's a find command looking in /usr for executable files (the first set of parens) which have the suid or sgid bits set (the second set of params). It's part of the daily security check carried out by periodic(8), as unexpected suid/sgid executables can be security holes. I hate to be an "I told you so" but if you look in the script that rebuilds the locate database: /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb You will see a number of find commands. In reality, you'd need to do: ps -al and follow the PID and PPID to determine what is running this find command. -Derek -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Re: mysqldump/gzip shell scripting question...
Eric Crist wrote: First off, I don't care if you send example in perl, php, or sh, but we're not a python shop here, so those recommendation will not be useful... I'm trying to write a shell script that scans our databases for tables starting with archive_ which are created by other scripts/departments, etc. This script needs to perform a mysqldump of that table, and then gzip it. It's MUCH quick to pipe directly to gzip, than perform the dump, then gzip that. The problem is, this table to filesystem dump is also going to drop those archive_* tables. We would like to know that the mysqldump worked before we do this. The problem we're having, as I'm sure others have run into (at least according to Google), is that a command such as the following leaves no apparent easy way to capture the exit status of the mysqldump command: # mysqldump -u $USER -p$PASS $DBHOST $DATABASE $TABLE | gzip > $TABLE.sql.gz This rough perl should do the trick: open (MYSQL, "/tmp/fail|") || die "mysqldump failed"; open (GZIP, "|gzip > /tmp/test.gz") || die "gzip failed"; while ($ret = read MYSQL, $buf, 4096) { print GZIP $buf || die "gzip write failed: $!"; } die "gzip write failed: $!" if (!defined($ret)); close(MYSQL) || die "mysql close failed"; close (GZIP) || die "gzip close failed"; and for testing /tmp/fail was executable and contained: #!/bin/sh - cat /etc/motd /etc/motd /etc/motd /etc/motd /etc/motd /etc/motd /etc/motd /etc/motd exit 1 With exit 1, perl dies on the MYSQL close, with exit 0 perl exits normally. If this works for you then /tmp/fail gets replaced with your mysqldump command and you'll need some params to pass in the name of the gzipped file. You can play with sysread instead of read, and vary the buffer size. No idea how it compares for speed to straight shell piping to gzip. hth, --Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I don't want to be rude, and this just happens to be the message I'm responding to with a more general gripe, but there does seem to be quite a lot of guessing in answers on this list over the last few days, which isn't perhaps as helpful as it's intended to be. This is nothing to do with locate(1) - it's a find command looking in /usr for executable files (the first set of parens) which have the suid or sgid bits set (the second set of params). It's part of the daily security check carried out by periodic(8), as unexpected suid/sgid executables can be security holes.

GHDL, Ada and FreeBSD on amd64
Hello guys, As there is no ghdl port in FreeBSD, I'm wondering if I can build one. The issue is that one of its dependencies, GNAT (GNU Ada compiler), is available only for i386, not for amd64. As it _is_ available for Linux, I was thinking about running it with FreeBSD's Linux emulation system, but as I have no idea of how it is implemented and as according to freenode's #ada it has to do with FreeBSD's threading, I'm wondering if my efforts would be destined to fail.

Re: Share folder over internet
It is hardly the freebsd community's fault that Skype / Ebay doesn't create a FreeBSD binary. Actually, the linux compatibility layer is one of the great things in FreeBSD. Of course, you may be having other issues we can't know about until you kindly tell us (on a separate thread pls...) Yes, I agree. I did not tell it is the fault of the FreeBSD community. However, when you need to install an application server for a couple of diskless X terminals, you should not use FreeBSD. I'm serious. There are some very important applications that just don't work. :-( ::shrug:: each solution needs to be considered for the problem. It is, after all, your server, feel free to install linux or pay for MS licenses... (btw, have ever actually used windows file sharing over a slow link ? whatever 'ease of use' you *may* have gain (and i'm not sure how much of that there really is) will probably be lost when you consider other factors...) Well, yes. You are right about these factors. In my case, it is almost too late to migrate to Linux. It would cost too much and there would be other disadvantages too. For some things, FreeBSD is definitely better.

Some of the the plugins for things like sysutils/gkrellm(2) do things like traffic graphs but you really dont want them on a firewall. If you dont need absolute realtime then just enable bsnmp on the internal interface and run something like mrtg or cacti (or even a very quick and dirty script using rrdtool via cron) against it.

In my understanding DVD standards in US a lose because of proprietary so you might have been just unlucky to pick the one with really strange coding. I would strongly suggest you try MPlayer (if everything fails to play some format usually MPlayer works). I am also able to play DVDs with gxine. I was able to play DVDs in the past with Kaffeine when I run PC-BSD for a short period of time. Since, I run Gnome I didn't bother to install Kaffeine. I am NOT able to play DVDs with Movie Player from Gnome and I have not really tried XMPS although I have the application on my computer.

Stunnel starting up twice?!?
Hey all, I've got a weird problem that's just appeared. I'd updated my ports to the latest CURRENT using portmanager, and now it seems like /usr/local/etc/rc.d/stunnel.sh is getting run twice! I have nuked my /etc/rc.d and run mergemaster -i. I'm running 6.2-RELEASE-p7, and the port is the latest available (stunnel-4.20). Anyone else seem similar? There is also a small bug in this port in that it fails to find the chroot'd pid file by default.
