Well, surprise, surprise!  A glance at [EMAIL PROTECTED] [ rather than

force sendmail to rewrite:

Chuck, your pointer was right, but I didn't understand the fine
points.  The ``FEATURE()'' line mmust accompany the 
``MASQUERADE_AS()'' LINE.  And, obviously, with the proper strings
within the parens.  I found this on a Google listing after about
45-50 mins of searching.

This is one of those fine tidbits that aren't widely known, but 
very useful

That bios description looks terribly familiar.

 I've never updated a BIOS before and it sounds a  bit scarey.

Well, the first step is to see if there's even one available. You might
well find the machine already has the latest available (manufacturer's)
bios.

 I guess I'll  just overwrite an old 10Gig disk with FreeBSD 4.3 on instead.
 
 I don't really  need the extra space but thought it would be sensible to 
 install on a new disk.
 
 Probably  stick the new disk on ebay  ;-)

Well, depends what you want to do with the machine. Chances are you'll
find that you're going to want that extra space soon enough. Plus
there's no telling how much life is left in that old 10 Gigger - not
that there's any guarantee your new one won't fail, either. Such is
life. Having two physical drives can be useful in a number of
circumstances, too.

I posted some years back about difficulties I was having getting a bios
to recognise a large hdd's geometry. Yes, here:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2003-April/002301.html

Note the part about setting the heads to 15 in the bios. That is,
disable the auto-detect-on-boot and set the geometry manually.

Good luck.

[FreeBSD] 6.3-R diskhandling

2008-01-26 Thread Alphons Fonz van Werven

Hi,

I have a recent model Toshiba laptop here, dual-booting Windows Vista and
Slackware Linux (not my call, so no flames please). When I got the 
go-ahead to replace Linux with FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE, the following

happened:

The partitioner complained that the found geometry 232581/16/63 is invalid
and it's using a more likely geometry instead. Closer inspection reveals
that this more likely geom (14593/255/63) is actually the real geometry,
so question 1 is: where did FreeBSD get this other weird-ass geometry
from?

When installing the boot manager, it hosed Windows' bootability. I could
mount and access the Windows partition from within FreeBSD just fine so
the partition itself seemed to be okay, but it just wouldn't boot. When I
selected it in the bootmanager menu, it showed a screen saying Windows
can't boot and I should use the recovery disk to repair Windows. Since
everything on the machine that was even remotely important had just been
backed up and Windows was due for a reinstall anyway, I just reinstalled
it and no harm was done, but I still wonder what happened. How come
FreeBSD's boot manager stopped Windows from booting?

The reinstall of Windows wiped away everything else, so I can retry
installing FreeBSD. But given the troubles described above, what's the
best way to do it? Currently, I'm considering the following:
1. Boot this Live Linux CD I have lying around here and which finds the
   correct geometry for the disk right away.
2. Make a backup of the MBR.
3. Create a partition (slice) for FreeBSD.
4. Boot the FreeBSD install disk and run through sysinstall (partitioning
   the slice Linux just created) but don't let it install a boot loader.
5. Boot the Live Linux again and install LILO from there.
But if you have any other suggestions I'm all ears of course.

Oh, and a final question: the Windows installer creates a partition table
in which partitions (slices) don't end on cylinder/track boundaries. Is
this a big deal? Linux notices it but doesn't seem bothered much by it and
FreeBSD appears to act likewise. But I thought I'd better ask, just to be
sure.

Thanks in advance,

Alphons

Truss and procfs

2008-01-26 Thread n j
Hello everyone,

just a short question regarding truss - I did some googling and found
a reference to a conversation with proposed (working?) patch to
eliminate dependency on procfs. That was in April 2007:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2007-April/070574.html
Does anybody knows if this got committed in any branch?

On a side note, last time I used strace was over a year ago, has it
got any better on 6.2 or 6.3 release?

Thanks,

When installing FreeBSD and you are asked what boot manager to install 
select to not install anything. In this way your Vista boot will not be 
affected.
If after this you find that at startup you are not given ANY choice but 
FreeBSD starts automatically, this is simply because it's partition is 
marked active.
Boot with a CD like Norton Partition Magic or GParted and mark the Vista 
partition active. Boot Vista, then download and install the EasyBCD from 
www.neowin.net

It is then trivial to add a stanza to Vista bootloader (!) to boot FreeBSD.

Okay, thanks for the link. I was not aware of that.

However, I do think there's more to it than that. After all, Slackware was
able to install LILO without any problems whatsoever. Both Vista and Linux
would boot just fine.

samba 3.28 port compilation gives error about locking unavailable

2008-01-26 Thread Dave

Hello,
   I'm trying to install samba 3.28 on 6.3. Previously i had installed 
samba on 6.2 without seeing this error.


   LDAP_LIBS = -lldap -llber
   AUTH_LIBS = -lcrypt  -lpam
checking configure summary... ERROR: No locking available. Running Samba 
would be unsafe

configure: error: summary failure. Aborting config
===  Script configure failed unexpectedly.

I believe this is something specific to this system and not a port issue, 
i've done this install in a jailed environment and the compilation worked 
fine. This 6.3 install was done using sysinstall's minimum working 
configuration option. I'm trying to configure samba as a pdc with an ldap 
backend. If anyone has an idea on this locking error i'm open to 
suggestions.

Thanks.

I happen to have LG Flatron T710BH monitor but have no idea about its
resolution and so on. What can I do to configure X11?

I do want to base it on FreeBSD (6.3) without erasing data and
installing PCBSD or NetBSD.

Thank you in advance!

k3b not recognizing ATAPI DVD A DH20A1S UX11 write capability

2008-01-26 Thread Bob Bing
Hi
I installed k3b-1.0.4/cdrtools-2.01_6/dvd+rw-tools-7.0 on an amd64
6.3machine running GENERIC but k3b gives the following error:

k3b:  NON_CRITICAL
k3b:  PROBLEM:  No CD/DVD writer found.
k3b:  DETAILS:  K3b did not find an optical writing device in your system.
Thus, you will not be able to burn CDs or DVDs. However, you can still use
other K3b features like audio track extraction or audio transcoding or
ISO9660 image creation.
k3b:  SOLUTION:

Any hints on how I can fix this? It worked fine under Linux and OpenBSD
(which I used to burn the 6.3 CDs)

Thanks a lot
Bob

unexpected happening booting to single user

just after the device enumeration when booting to single user

 Some motherboards had an upper limit on hard disk size which I think was
 32gb. Some drives have a jumper to limit the apparent size to 32gb (if
 that was the size).
 

There have been lots of different limits through the years.  The 32GB
limit was an Award bios thing.  You can read about them here:

What the original poster needs to do is go and buy a used Promise

disk controller in BIOS, and use his 80GB disk.

RE: The question about Broadcom BCM5721 ethernet adapter integrated in motherboard, on PCIe and FreeBSD6.3

2008-01-26 Thread Ted Mittelstaedt

Yes.  All of the Broadcom chips are the same and are supported
by the bge driver.  However, Broadcom and it's various motherboard
customers seem to like to use different PCI id strings for the
chip, and so you may find when you install it, that it does not
detect the chip.  A typical example of the problem is here:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/119779

and the fix, shown in this PR, is easy to implement.  Basically,
boot FreeBSD, if the chip isn't detected, run pciconf and take
the output and patch the driver detection and you should be
fine.

 Some motherboards had an upper limit on hard disk size which I think was
 32gb. Some drives have a jumper to limit the apparent size to 32gb (if
 that was the size).

 Also I no longer have hardware to test this on but if it is a BIOS
 problem I believe if you could put the hard disk in a newer machine for
 the install it would then boot in the older machine as FreeBSD accesses
 the disk directly, not through the BIOS.

 When he puts that big hard drive back in the old computer, he still won't
be able to boot because to boot the BIOS reads the MBR on the hard disk and
passes control to that program.  If BIOS can't recognize the disk, there is
no possibility of booting.  The initial stages of booting happen based on
data on the hard disk.  This is a chicken and egg problem.  It boils down to
the fact that BIOS needs to recognize the hard disk to be able to boot it.

[freebsd-questions] Vidcontrol woes

2008-01-26 Thread Alphons Fonz van Werven

Okay,

FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE just got installed on the Toshiba laptop. But for some
reason, I don't seem able to change the console video mode.

The VESA module has of course been loaded and I did a vidmode -i mode
but pretty much every mode I tried either turned the entire screen red
(and completely screwed up) or it says operation not supported by
device.

I'm pretty sure it should be possible to get, like, 132x43 or something.
In fact, several Linux distros managed it. But I can't figure out what I'm
doing wrong.

Any thoughts?

Alphons

Installing apache and it conflicts with a previously installed port, how to fix

2008-01-26 Thread Andrew Falanga
Hi,

I'm installing apache 2.2 on my father's computer and got this error from the 
install of apache:

===  Installing for apache-2.2.8

===  apache-2.2.8 conflicts with installed package(s):
  apr-db42-1.2.8_2

  They install files into the same place.
  Please remove them first with pkg_delete(1).

As you can see, a recommended course of action is given here.  I wanted to 
find out what apr-db42 is, or what depends upon it, before removal and got 
this:

roadrunner# pkg_info -r apr-db42-1.2.8_2
Information for apr-db42-1.2.8_2:

Depends on:
Dependency: expat-2.0.0_1
Dependency: perl-5.8.8_1
Dependency: db42-4.2.52_5
Dependency: libiconv-1.9.2_2

Can I safely remove apr-db42-1.2.8_2 that using pkg_delete to complete the 
install of apache, or should I do something different?

Thanks,
Andy

First off, you should probably update your ports tree. Firefox is now
at 2.0.0.11,1, and xorg-libraries is at 7.3_1.

Then try the upgrade again. If it still fails, show us the errors from
the xorg-libraries build.

nfs locking

2008-01-26 Thread Dave

Hello,
   I'm using nfs on freebsd 6.2 server and a freebsd 6.3 client. On both i 
have to implement nfs locking. I've added:


rpc_lockd_enable=YES
rpc_statd_enable=YES

to both system's /etc/rc.conf. On the client i can start nfs_locking and 
both statd and lockd start. On the server when i start nfs_locking only 
statd starts, lockd does not. In /var/log/messages i'm seeing the error msg: 
nfslock: no such file or directory. Can anyone tell me what this file is and 
where to put it?

Thanks.
Dave.

Hmm, how did you end up with 7.2 installed, with the old /usr/X11R6 dir?
I thought that went away in the transition from 6.9 to 7.2...

Anyhow, following Kris' instructions in UPDATING should see you through
the upgrade OK. I did it quite painlessly on a few machines, although
others did report difficulties. If it comes to it, you can uninstall
all your X-related ports and do a clean install of Xorg 7.3 - it'll
take a while, but it will get the job done.

I hope it works out!

redundancy in domain or hostname ?

2008-01-26 Thread Walter Jansen
The router connected to my server reports DNS inquiries like
myserver.example.com.example.com which obviously leads nowhere

 

The server is in a SOHO situation connected to a router which is connected
to DSL; the server runs 6.3 Release and will serve as mailserver for the few
in-house employees  and as a webserver. The domain example.com is
registered with Dyndns.org who also run the Custom DNS service.  The DNS
entries were checked with Dyndns.org staff and found in accordance with the
purpose.  

During installation  of the server, the hostname myserver.example.com and
the domain name example.com were entered in the appropiate Sysinstall
dialog

. 

/etc/hosts shows:

 

::1 localhost.example.com localhost

127.0.0.1   localhost.example.com localhost

192.168.1.13myserver.example.com myserver

192.168.1.13myserver.example.com.

 

192.168.1.13 is allocated to the server by the DHCP of the router; this IP
address is fixed though!!

 

 

Table /etc/resolv.com reads:

 

domain  example.com

nameserver  192.168.1.1  (my router's IP address

 

 

I postponed installation of Postfix and Apache as I feel that host- and
domainname should be configured correctly to prevent accumulating trouble.

 

Remarks a most appreciated.

Sure.  If you want to masquerade a local machine's FQDN to just your

well, i tried what was in the Sendmail.cf/README; I put the

it didn't work.   Any other pages you can suggest...?

Yes, you should either set up working DNS for all of your machines which send 
email (if you control the DNS for thought.org, consider using DynDNS or 
equivalent so that tao.thought.org is resolvable) or (depending on whether you 
have administrative control over the destination SMART_HOST mailserver) look 
into the access map:


  http://www.sendmail.org/m4/anti_spam.html#access_db

...or, failing that, enabling these with caution:

accept_unresolvable_domains
Normally, MAIL FROM: commands in the SMTP session will be
refused if the host part of the argument to MAIL FROM:
cannot be located in the host name service (e.g., an A or
MX record in DNS).  If you are inside a firewall that has
only a limited view of the Internet host name space, this
could cause problems.  In this case you probably want to
use this feature to accept all domains on input, even if
they are unresolvable.

relay_entire_domain
This option allows any host in your domain as defined by
class {m} to use your server for relaying.  Notice: make
sure that your domain is not just a top level domain,
e.g., com.  This can happen if you give your host a name
like example.com instead of host.example.com.

You can also define your local host name (aka class w) to be something which 
the other machine can resolve.  By the way, an excerpt from the mail logs 
(/var/log/mail.log) are the best source of info for relaying issues, although 
it is possible to figure out some of the issues from a stuck message in the spool.


It's also possible that if you set your SMART_HOST to your ISP's mailserver, 
and configure authentication with them, they will let you relay even if your 
mail submission is using local/invalid DNS hostnames.


Regards,

full-screen multimedia jukebox software

2008-01-26 Thread Chad Perrin
I'm looking for suggestions for full-screen playback multimedia jukebox
software.  It should maintain a full-screen display while playing,
showing the video when video is played and some kind of visualization
when audio is played, without showing the software controls on the
screen.  The intent is to provide jukebox-like functionality on a FreeBSD
platform on screens in a small venue (like a bar or nightclub, for
instance) so that both audio-only music and music videos can be played.

Open source software preferred, of course -- and most-preferred would be
a BSD-like license -- though proprietary/closed-source software is not
out of the question, as long as licensing costs are reasonable (aka
cheap).

mounting/reading a DVD

2008-01-26 Thread Mikhail Teterin
Hello!

I finally got to opening a DVD I received for New Year and wanted to back it 
up before watching.

I mounted the disk:

/dev/acd0 on /cdrom (cd9660, local, read-only)

and I can list the contents:

env LANG=C ls -l /cdrom/
total 8
dr-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2048 Oct  6  2005 audio_ts
dr-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2048 Oct  6  2005 jacket_p
dr-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  4096 Oct  6  2005 video_ts


But when I try to copy all that to a hard-drive, I get a ton of read-errors -- 
most of the many files on the disk are unreadable:

...
g_vfs_done():acd0[READ(offset=4623824896, length=65536)]error = 5

...

``dd'' refuses to read from /dev/acd0:

dd: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument

cat tries to, but fails:

cat: stdin: Input/output error

Is there a step I'm missing? I strongly doubt, the disk is damaged, as I just 
unwrapped it myself...

I'm on FreeBSD/amd64 running 6.3 as of Dec 30th. The DVD-drive is:

 Subject: Re: formatting disk for FreeBSD : Detecting IDE Primary Master
 ...[Press F4 to skip]


  Some motherboards had an upper limit on hard disk size which I think was
  32gb. Some drives have a jumper to limit the apparent size to 32gb (if
  that was the size).
 
  Also I no longer have hardware to test this on but if it is a BIOS
  problem I believe if you could put the hard disk in a newer machine for
  the install it would then boot in the older machine as FreeBSD accesses
  the disk directly, not through the BIOS.
 
  When he puts that big hard drive back in the old computer, he
 still won't
 be able to boot because to boot the BIOS reads the MBR on the
 hard disk and
 passes control to that program.

All BIOS code is written to check for firmware at locations
c000: through c789: during bootup - this is where add-in
cards like the Promise card that I indicated he should use, have
their firmware. When the CPU transfers control to that firmware,
it can overwrite BIOS parameters to allow booting to occur off the
hard disk on the add-in card.

Re: mounting/reading a DVD

It's because the DVD is copy protected.

 Hello!

 I finally got to opening a DVD I received for New Year and wanted to back it
 up before watching.

 I mounted the disk:

 /dev/acd0 on /cdrom (cd9660, local, read-only)

 and I can list the contents:

 env LANG=C ls -l /cdrom/
 total 8
 dr-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2048 Oct  6  2005 audio_ts

 dr-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  4096 Oct  6  2005 video_ts


 But when I try to copy all that to a hard-drive, I get a ton of read-errors --
 most of the many files on the disk are unreadable:

 ...
 g_vfs_done():acd0[READ(offset=4623824896, length=65536)]error = 5
 acd0: FAILURE - READ_BIG ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=0x6f ascq=0x04

 ...

 ``dd'' refuses to read from /dev/acd0:

 dd: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument

 cat tries to, but fails:

 cat: stdin: Input/output error

 Is there a step I'm missing? I strongly doubt, the disk is damaged, as I just
 unwrapped it myself...

 I'm on FreeBSD/amd64 running 6.3 as of Dec 30th. The DVD-drive is:

 acd0: DVDR MATSHITADVD-RAM SW-9585/B100 at ata1-master UDMA66

Re: error while updating ports: x11/xorg-libraries

2008-01-26 Thread Huub


Hmm, how did you end up with 7.2 installed, with the old /usr/X11R6 dir?
I thought that went away in the transition from 6.9 to 7.2...


So it apparently should be..



Anyhow, following Kris' instructions in UPDATING should see you through
the upgrade OK. I did it quite painlessly on a few machines, although
others did report difficulties. If it comes to it, you can uninstall
all your X-related ports and do a clean install of Xorg 7.3 - it'll
take a while, but it will get the job done.


According to the instructions:

 Unfortunately portupgrade (nor portupgrade-devel) cannot yet handle
  the rigors of the xorg upgrade without a small bit of help:

  # portupgrade -Rf libXft

results in:

** Listing the failed packages (*:skipped / !:failed)
* x11/xorg-libraries (xorg-libraries-7.2_1)
---  Packages processed: 112 done, 47 ignored, 1 skipped and 0 failed

So I guess I'm gonna do a clean install of all of Xbut can you tell 
me which packages I should remove exactly?

libdvdcss can probably help, and you can use mplayer or ogle as a
front end to it. mplayer has an option to copy the tracks to a
file as well. It may be necessary to set the drive's region code
to match the disc's before it allows you to read the track keys.
There's an ioctl for that...

I tried that one to no avail.   I just re-built/installed the xfont 
server, and all its dependencies, but this still did not fix the 
problem. portupgrade -fr xfs-1.0.5,1


I feel like ripping out all the ports and starting from scratch, but I 
can't do that as this is a production server :o(


If you are using TightVNC server you may try to install X11VNC and 
forget about TightVNC server and vise verse.  They should not conflict 
each other. You can also try to pkg_delete and to clean configuration 
files and reinstall the VNC server you are using.


I am little bit surprised that you are running X let alone VNC server on 
the production machine.
Are you aware of the fact that you can display programs that run on your 
server on the another machine in X even though X itself doesn't run on 
your server. That can be done via ssh tunel.


Read the page 91 from the book Secure Architectures with OpenBSD.

Best,
Predrag

In any case, I suppose the OP could just use a floppy
boot disk, like slackware's:

Which should bypass any (most) moronic bioses.
