VMWare Tools for FreeBSD

[Terry Sposato]

Hi,

 

Is there any future development work being undertaken in order to port
vmware-tools to FreeBSD.

As our organisation using VMWare ESX Server and a lot of our servers are
being virtualised to save hardware costs, this would let our FreeBSD servers
follow as well.

 

It does work find under Linux so I am 50% confident that it would port to
FreeBSD if the work was done. Is it a licensing issue or another reason? Not
being a developer myself was just wondering if this has been tackled and if
it is being incorporated somewhere in the future?

 

Regards,

 

Terry

Very well, but now I boot with ACPI errors like these:

ACPI Error (psparse-0626) Method parse/execution failed [\\_TZ_.THRM._TMP] 
(Node 0xff000224ac60), AE_AML_NO_RETURN_VALUE
ACPI Exception (dsutils-0766) AE_AML_NO_RETURN_VALUE Missing or null operand 
[20070320]
ACPI Exception (dsutils-0766) AE_AML_NO_RETURN_VALUE While creating Arg 0 
[20070320]

If I attempt to boot without ACPI, the machine hangs while trying to mount 
root filesystem. Why does disabling ACPI cause disk access problems? What can 
I do to fix this? Can I disable only thermal part of ACPI?

So far I haven't had any major problems with linux-flash7 on my native firefox 
using nspluginwrapper.  Sometimes I get the sound off sync but I can survive.  
It's the 9 that crashes and in my opinion should be removed from the ports 
collection.  You can always try graphics/gnash which works natively with 
firefox.

6.2 had to be moved off-site.



There's no documentation about ftp-archive here

If you mean the "nat enable yes" option in ppp.conf, that is done
completely within the user-ppp daemon (using the same libalias libarary
that natd uses).  Since user-ppp creates its own tun# device, it can
call the NAT functions as it processes packets to/from that device
without needing IPFW divert rules.

There should be a packages link at the same level of the ports directory.
Keep the ports directory structure as you want, but it doesn't hurt to
add a link and make the distinction more obvious in the ftp location.
The documentation makes the distinction and the ftp tree should as well.

Disk space is not infinite.  ftp-archive has old releases.  packages are 
built from ports and are part of the ports collection.

Sure, flush the rules and the current state and start over. I haven't

umodem driver with Nokia N80

[Gautham Ganapathy]

Hi

I am trying to get my nokia n80 working under freebsd (7-stable) with the
umodem driver. Running udesc_dump from ports shows that this phone supports
the Abstract Control Model in the Communication Device Class, but it only
comes up as a ugen device even with the ucom and umodem devices loaded at
startup. Enabling some debug info in sys/dev/usb/umodem.c indicates that the
device matching code was failing when it was checking for some Call
Management feature (UDESCSUB_CDC_CM) in umodem_get_caps(). udesc_dump does
not list this descriptor either, although this phone is being detected as an
ACM device under linux (Ubuntu 7.10 livecd), where it comes up as ttyACM0.

Is there any way of getting this up and running in 7-stable? Any pointers on
what changes might be required to the driver and any documentation would
also be very helpful

Regards
Gautham

PS - I was able to use this phone as a modem using bluetooth until a f/w
upgrade (5.) introduced some bugs and made it stop working

Maybe something like this will suit you:

stat -f "%p %l %u %g %z %m %N" *

It produces output similar to the following:

100755 1 0 0 64 1201845218 blah

The fields that I choose are in the man page, so it should be easy 
reading, and is pretty close to `ls -l`.


As for as `ls` having this ability, it doesn't.

state of flash on FreeBSD 7?

[C Thala]

Like Javascript, with regards to Flash, what was once a nuisance has
more or less become a necessity.

I turned off JS on my browsers for several years and avoided most
popup/web issues that people had. Nowadays, I can leave it on because
Firefox plus some plugins do a good job of blocking most of the crap
and because it doesn't destabilize the browser like it once used to.

So what's the deal with Flash? Occasionally, I will get a link on
YouTube/Google Video that looks interesting, but for the most part,
I've ignored them. Over the years, I have occasionally tried the
mozilla flash plugin, but that has always crashed my browser within
the first 10 minutes of use.

So for those of you using FreeBSD 7, what is the current state of
Flash? Can it be used regularly? Is it ready for the BSD desktop?
Caveats? Comments? Advice?

Installation locks up

[mike3]

Hi.

I was attempting to install FreeBSD 7.0 on a Sun
computer (Sun Blade 100 with 500MHz UltraSPARC IIe
CPU). It seems to be having trouble though. When it
gets done (100%) copying the base system to / (the
first part of the install), it freezes up cold (I
can't even ALT-F4 to teh emergency console session.)
What's wrong? I can't seem to figure it out.

know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.  Try it now.

IPFW with user-ppp's NAT

[Razmig K]

Hello,

With IPFW enabled in the kernel, I'd like to use the NAT functionality 
of user-ppp instead of natd. Do I need the IPDIVERT option in the kernel 
and the special arrangement of divert and skipto rules in the ruleset? 
Or, a non-NATed ruleset (as demonstrated in handbook section 28.6.5.6) 
would suffice?
If divert rules are necessary, what argument do I need to pass to action 
divert in place of natd?


Thank you.

Re: Where is packages-6.2-release?

I have only ONE question.
Where is packages-6.2-release? I have FreeBSD 6.2, and tuning it.
Where I can download packages for my freebsd version?


Thats a great question, and it appears that the 6.2-release packages
repository has been removed.  Looking in ftp.freebsd.org I see 5-stable,
6-stable, 6.3-release, 7-stable, 7.0-release, and 8-current.  There is
no 6.2-release directory so "pkg_add -r" returns an error for any package
that you try to load.  Very aggravating.

Apparently the release team is only providing packages for the most
recent streams.  I'd like to know why that is, and also why they insist
on listing "packages" under "ports".  The documentation makes it very
clear there is a difference between the two.  Why anyone on the release
team thinks it's intuitive to look for a ready-to-go "package" under
a "ports" directory which has been defined by documentation as something
that needs to be compiled, is a mystery to simpletons like myself.


Disk space is not infinite.  ftp-archive has old releases.  packages are 
built from ports and are part of the ports collection.

If you now see ad4s2a but cannot boot, you most probably need 
'bsdlabel -B /dev/ad4a2' to install the proper bootstrap code there
(see bsdlabel manpage).

I'm not too concerned with that. Automatic system updates are the key
to temporal instability, arguably at the cost of security, but that's
another story best saved for later...

I concur. I thought it would be easiest to keep all non-system data in
one place (/home), but thought I'd best get the general consensus
first.


You have all been quite helpful. Thank you much.

Re: System can not boot, seems can not find right partition after add new label

[Kemian Dang]

Thanks for reponse,

Problem is the boot partition can not be found.
I burned a install cdm using it I find I have set ad4s2 to be
bootable, so I changed it back.
But this time, the system said I have missing something on boot...

I do not want to waste too much time on it, as I can have the back up
data, So I re install using the new burned CD...

Best whies,
Kemian

Can one list permission bits numerically...

[Modulok]

Perhaps I missed it somewhere in the man page, but is there a way to
list files with their permission bits displayed as numeric (octal, as
in chmod(1)), instead of symbolic? Something like:

ls -lF -imaginaryFlag

0755  4 Modulok  Modulok 512 Dec 17 18:39 dir1/
0644  1 Modulok  Modulok  101786 Feb 23 05:53 file1
0644  1 Modulok  Modulok  140097 Feb 13 23:38 file2
...

Thanks.

Aggravating indeed.  The real question here is why the OP does not
upgrade to 6.3-RELEASE.

I don't see a problem with not providing disk space for such a specific
set of packages, and especially when a number of them can be found on
the ISOs for the release in question.

CAM errors with 7.0-RELEASE and USB hard drive

[Doug Reynolds]

Hello,

I've just hooked up my Western Digital MyBook 750G external usb hard 
drive to my server in order to make some backups.  The drive is formated 
UFS, and it seems to work well.


However, when doing large file transfers (ie, using DUMP or gzip'ing 
files) I keep getting these errors every so often:


Mar 10 20:08:34 hive kernel: umass0: BBB reset failed, TIMEOUT

Every thing *seems* to be working ok, but I really would like to know if 
my backups are actually worth while.


I am running this on a P4-2.5ghz system with 1.5G of ram.  I am using an 
add-in USB 2.0 card (the mb doesn't support 2.0).  The main drive is a 
120G WD.  The onboard controller is also disabled in the BIOS.

It looks harmless - the system is mostly idle. Maybe it's an accounting bug.

Does the "last pid" field increase? I don't know if 4.x has the "show 
system threads mode" but you might want to try hitting "S" in top and 
see if it shows kernel-mode processes.

2points:

(1) yes, you are right, without the source code, any guesses are at the
same level as black magic, useless
(2) if the user is learning to use gdb, then it is really bad manners to
suggest that printfs should be used.  While I  have made massive use
of printfs before I got used to gdb, gdb is incredibly more powerful,
can do any and all that any prints might accomplish, and anyone who
is willing to learn to use that debugger should be encouraged, not
given bad habits that really should be a fallback only to environments
where gdb won't work.


Chuck,

On your point 2 let me say that there are simply times when a developer 
needs to check run-time code versus running the code in a 
debugger.  Debuggers are a great tool, but they do cause some side-effects 
as was noted in the original post.  If the debugger is not consistent in 
the variable values, it is of little use if those values are causing a 
problem.  What I originally suggested was using conditionally compiled 
fprintf's to check those variable values running the program by itself 
instead of inside gdb.  I know adding additional code, even just fprintf's, 
can change the way a program is compiled and optimized.  But this at least 
gives another way to validate the variables.

IPFW / Dummynet problem

[Jay L. T. Cornwall]

Hi,

My FreeBSD machine is configured as a bridge between two networks:

|-||-|
| LAN | ---> vr0 <--bridge0--> vr1 --> | WAN |
|-||-|

The following firewall ruleset works fine:

add 00600 allow all from any to any via vr0 keep-state
add 00610 allow tcp from any to any 22 in via vr1 setup keep-state
add 00611 allow tcp from any to any 23 in via vr1 setup keep-state
add 00612 allow tcp from any to any 113 in via vr1 setup keep-state
add 00613 allow icmp from any to any icmptypes 11
add 00620 check-state
add 00630 deny all from any to any via vr1
add 00640 allow all from 192.168.1.30 to any
add 00641 allow all from any to 192.168.1.30

I then add the following dummynet rules before these. The LAN continues
to work (queueing is only applied to the vr1 WAN interface), the WAN
continues to work from the bridge machine itself (192.168.1.30) but
outbound HTTP connections from any client on the LAN fail.

pipe 1 config bw 2Mbit/s queue 1
pipe 2 config bw 256Kbit/s queue 1
queue 1 config weight 10 pipe 1 queue 20 mask dst-ip 0x
queue 2 config weight 10 pipe 2 queue 20 mask src-ip 0x
queue 3 config weight 2 pipe 1 queue 100 mask dst-ip 0x
queue 4 config weight 2 pipe 2 queue 10 mask src-ip 0x
queue 5 config weight 1 pipe 1 queue 100 mask dst-ip 0x
queue 6 config weight 1 pipe 2 queue 10 mask src-ip 0x
add 00500 queue 1 tcp from any to any in via vr1 tcpflags ack iplen 0-52
add 00501 queue 2 tcp from any to any out via vr1 tcpflags ack iplen 0-52
add 00510 queue 3 udp from any to any in via vr1
add 00511 queue 4 udp from any to any out via vr1
add 00512 queue 3 tcp from any to any 22 in via vr1
add 00513 queue 4 tcp from any to any 22 out via vr1
add 00514 queue 3 tcp from any to any 993 in via vr1
add 00515 queue 4 tcp from any to any 993 out via vr1
add 00520 queue 5 all from any to any in via vr1
add 00521 queue 6 all from any to any out via vr1

I don't understand how queueing rules could affect the passing of any
packet, except in delay? They do seem to match the queueing rules, e.g.
rules 00520 and 00521 accumulate packets as connection attempts are
made. Outbound packets even seem to pass to the WAN, so I can only
assume it is an inbound/stateful problem?

Not sure.. I had masquerading enabled long ago.. but then I took

I think I may need it.. right?

see? it says that it doesn't know about the generics map!

Any more thoughts on this, please?

This causes sendmail to only apply masquerading to the domains listed in
class {M} -- ie. what is listed in /etc/mail/generics-domains.  Without
that sendmail will also masquerade for any host in class {w} which includes
any contents of /etc/mail/local-host-names,  all the interfaces of your
server by IP and any names those interfaces resolve into as well.  You
can see what the resulting lists are on your system by running

  sendmail -bt

and then typing $=w or $=M at the prompt.

>Where I can download packages for my freebsd version?

Thats a great question, and it appears that the 6.2-release packages
repository has been removed.  Looking in ftp.freebsd.org I see 5-stable,
6-stable, 6.3-release, 7-stable, 7.0-release, and 8-current.  There is
no 6.2-release directory so "pkg_add -r" returns an error for any package
that you try to load.  Very aggravating.

Apparently the release team is only providing packages for the most
recent streams.  I'd like to know why that is, and also why they insist
on listing "packages" under "ports".  The documentation makes it very
clear there is a difference between the two.  Why anyone on the release
team thinks it's intuitive to look for a ready-to-go "package" under
a "ports" directory which has been defined by documentation as something
that needs to be compiled, is a mystery to simpletons like myself.

That is two questions.  packages-6.2-release is gone, because
6.2-RELEASE has passed its EOL.  

For 6.X packages, you have a choice of packages-6.3-release or
packages-6-stable.

Re: A couple of questions about 7.0-RELEASE and X11

[Gordon devel]

The configure program is now /usr/local/bin/xorgconfig .

You might also want to try 'X -configure' , which does some hardware
probing and puts a best guess configure file in /root/xorg.conf.new .

The X documentation can still be a bit sketchy.  Above advice came
from books.

Cheers,
Gordon

If the kdebase port needs qt33 to build, shouldn't it be installed as a

2points:

(1) yes, you are right, without the source code, any guesses are at the
same level as black magic, useless
(2) if the user is learning to use gdb, then it is really bad manners to
suggest that printfs should be used.  While I  have made massive use
of printfs before I got used to gdb, gdb is incredibly more powerful,
can do any and all that any prints might accomplish, and anyone who
is willing to learn to use that debugger should be encouraged, not
given bad habits that really should be a fallback only to environments
where gdb won't work.

well, as long as the users receive/send emails from/to external domains

the message gets to the right user, but the from header is

Re: Headless Azureus with any X11 Dependencies ??

I can, from the bottom of my heart, recommend TorrentFlux (

What exactly did not work? You should use sysinstall (you can use
FreeBSD installation CD or liveCD), go to Configure -> Fdisk, then
change slice ad4s2 type to 165 and write the changes. I should work.

If uic still does not show linked to libthr, I have no clue what causes that 
on your system. I'd inspect /etc/libmap.conf, /etc/make.conf, the config.log 
for qt33 and the final link command that produces the uic binary.

I think it's obvious he means running freebsd as a guest OS on some
kind of VM (VMWare, VirtualBox)
Yes Xen specifically.

what is "virtualized FreeBSD"?

Sorry, I meant virtualized as in a guest os under Xen.

freebsd 7.0 sshd authenticating against ldap core dumping

[Dave]

Hello,
Is anyone using ldap authentication with 7.0? I've got a 7.0-release box 
that i'm trying to get ldap authentication working with. The 7.0 box is the 
client in this case. I'm encrypting connections with tls, which is working. 
On the box itself i can do an ldapsearch for a user and an id for a user 
plus ls -l information on users shows up correctly. I've added ldap to my 
/etc/nsswitch.conf file. So far nothing has blown up, i can still log in as 
normal. My issue comes when i add the line:


auth sufficient /usr/local/lib/pam_ldap.so try_first_pass

to /etc/pam.d/sshd and restart sshd. Now whenever i try to log in either as 
a local user, nonldap or as an ldap user sshd exits with a signal 11, this 
only occurs with that line in pam.d/sshd, remove it and restart and all is 
well. I've googled and seen others with this but with no solution. My logs 
show sshd exiting with the signal 11 then nothing. An ssh -v -v -v shows the 
connection is closed after the file ~/.ssh/identity is searched for.

   Any help appreciated.
Thanks.
Dave.

Load Averages

[Grant Peel]

Hi all,

I have a machine that has be up now for a little over two years:

voyager ROOT /var/log > w
10:15AM  up 741 days,  2:42, 1 user, load averages: 1.06, 1.02, 1.00
USER TTY  FROM  LOGIN@  IDLE WHAT
p0    10:08AM - w

and as you can see from the 'w' output above, the load average is running 
about 1.00 for all three timeframes.


This machine is a nameserver only and has only a few processes running on 
it. I have tried shutting down all but the very necessary of processes and 
the 1-5-15 minute averages stay the same. This has only started over the 
past week. At the start of last week, my mrtg graphs showed it spiked at 
1.00 for about an hour, then subsided. It did the same a few days later, and 
today, has been at 1.00 since about midnight.


This machine is a Dell PE 500SC (Vintage about 2002), and is running FreeBSD 
4.4.


Questions:

Is there another way (other than top or ps) that will show what is causing 
the spike? ps and top are showing nothing.


Should I be worried?

COuld this be an indication of a hardware problem?

Here is the top output:

A couple of questions about 7.0-RELEASE and X11

[Robert Chalmers]

I have just installed the new 7.0-RELEASE shown on the www.freebsd.org home
page  ( still confused as to whether this is CURRENT or STABLE ) and trying
to get X working.

It doesn't appear to have xorgcfg in it anywhere? Has this handy program
been abandoned?

I'm running it on an old SAMTRON 5Ei monitor of unknown HorizontalSync and
VerticalSync patterns, and the card type is reported as S3. 

There are a couple of ways to configure the xorg.conf file available - but
none seem to be producing any useable results.

The handbook is clear and concise - but none of it works.

 

I did a clean install of 7.0 and put X on at the time. But even the manual
talks about xorgcfg - but its no where to be found? Should it be there? Or
has it been discontinued?

 

thanks

Re: Sync or Soft Updates or gjournal

[David Wassman]

Wojciech,

 

Thanks for the response. I like gmirror and actually use it for two
production machines but in this case, I think I still prefer to use the
hardware RAID5 (for online expansion and rebuilds) and I always prefer
to use SAS/SCSI if given a choice. Anyways, the hardware is already
purchased.

 

So gjournal will slow it down. It is hard to believe all the hype of
journalled filesystems is all about not having to fsck on boot. (Yes I
know it is fsck not fschk (other post). Been working with M$ too much).


 

Does anyone know why Michael Lucas would say "up to 80GB" for soft
updates? I start FreeBSD with Absolute BSD and Scary Daemons and has
always found his advice solid and reliable. I hate to go against it here
and be wrong. Especially, when this is a large project with the fate of
FreeBSD being used in the environment here at stake.

no special controller and RAID1 (gmirror), not RAID5.

while RAID1 "wastes" half space, with large IDE drives you still get
more 

space, while SATA drives are slightly slower, you still get FASTER
system 

on writes because RAID5 is bad for this, and on reads. gain on not using


RAID5 will outperform slower drives.

soft updates isn't the mix of two - it's much better. you actually get 

sync integrity with almost async performance, but with larger CPU 

usage, which - with modern CPUs - is minimal anyway.

 

just use them :)

 

gjournal will actually slow things down, for avoiding fsck on boot.

 

properly configured freebsd doesn't crash every day so spending an hour 

(at most) on fsck doesn't make a problem.

It is hard to tell without the code you used.  I would put some
printf's in the code and see what and when that variable gets set to
in actual running code.

I understand it is waiting at a breakpoint in gdb.  What I meant was
put printf's in your code and run the program and look at the
output.  You can use fprintf's to stderr if your prefer and just
look at the stderr output.

It is hard to diagnose what could be a compiler error, or a coding
error.  Remember in C you can do many things you really shouldn't.
It is also advisable to run lint over your source code too.


All that lint shows is it doesn't like comments using // and lots of
errors in /usr/include files.


This sounds more like a c++ program. c++ does a lot of variable initiation 
in code you usually won't see.


If this is a c++ program, put conditional printf's or cout's in to check 
the code at actual runtime rather than in the debugger.


You may want to use asserts.

System can not boot, seems can not find right partition after add new label

[Kemian Dang]

Hi,there:

A short story is:
When I boot my laptop, the screen tells me "invalida partition" and
then give me the prompt "default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel".
My FreeBSD / partition is at /dev/ad4s3a, so I tried
"4:ad(3,a)/boot/kernel/kernel", but without lucky.
Could someone tell me how should I give it the command, thanks in advance.

Long story:
Because my partition is nearly full, last night I delete a windows
ntfs partition and try to use it under FreeBSD 7.0 Release as /home, I
used to put /usr and /home together.

I can not remember whether I do something stupid, I just dd
if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4s2 to write zero, then when I want to use
bsdlabel to create new slice, but the new slice did not show up. So I
tried sysinstall, still did not work.
I thought it was because it used to be a ntfs partition, so I wanted
to boot to windows and delete the partition.
But it could not boot till now.

There used to be a easyBCD soft to help me boot freebsd from the
Windows Vista boot loader, but it did not appear, but a directly
Invalid Partition


Any suggestion appreciated.

Best wishes,
Kemian

Failed Upgrading 'gnucash-2.2.0' to 'gnucash-2.2.3_2'

[Dino Vliet]

Hi folks,
I'm updating my ports and ran across this error message when I update
   
my freebsd 6.2 amd64 system. When upgrading gnucash I get the following error:

  You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again

  If you really wish to overwrite the old port of finance/libofx
  without deleting it first, set the variable "FORCE_PKG_REGISTER"
  in your environment or the "make install" command line.

I've tried make deinstalling libofx, reinstalling, etc etc, all with no success.
What can I do to fix this?
/usr/ports/UPDATING doesn't have an entry for gnucash nor libofx

Thanks in advanced,
Dino

I think it's obvious he means running freebsd as a guest OS on some
kind of VM (VMWare, VirtualBox)

Re: Compile error, kde related?

[Leslie Jensen]

There's your problem. I don't see a libpthread or better on 7.x a libthr.so 
linked in:


libthr.so.3 => /lib/libthr.so.3 (0x38b55000)

is what it shows on my 7.x system.

So the question is, why isn't qt built with thread support. I don't see how 
that's possible with the current ports makefile.

Do you have a file /lib/libthr.so*?



Yes I do.

bsdpc01# find /lib | grep "libthr.so"
/lib/libthr.so.3

So what do you suggest I do now?

Re: Virtualized FreeBSD

[Wojciech Puchar]

I am currently running CentOS on a bunch of virtualized guest os's but need 
to upgrade them.  I see that FreeBSD 7.0 is virtualized.  Given a choice, I 
would rather use FreeBSD because of the ease of use of keeping the ports 
current.


I am just wondering if anyone has used the virtualized FreeBSD in a producton 
environment and if so what are the pros and cons?


what is "virtualized FreeBSD"?

if you mean FreeBSD jails - yes it runs fine, i use them on 6.3p1

Re: Sync or Soft Updates or gjournal for fileserver

[Wojciech Puchar]

My question is with this setup (Have not assembled or installed yet),
for a fileserver running Samba to share in mixed environment, what would
be better, sync, soft updates or gjournal. From my understanding, sync


first - for the same amount of money, use cheaper and larger SATA disks, 
no special controller and RAID1 (gmirror), not RAID5.
while RAID1 "wastes" half space, with large IDE drives you still get more 
space, while SATA drives are slightly slower, you still get FASTER system 
on writes because RAID5 is bad for this, and on reads. gain on not using 
RAID5 will outperform slower drives.



is the most secure as far as data integrity but suffers from
performance. Soft Updates is a mix between the two but from reading


soft updates isn't the mix of two - it's much better. you actually get 
sync integrity with almost async performance, but with larger CPU 
usage, which - with modern CPUs - is minimal anyway.


just use them :)

gjournal will actually slow things down, for avoiding fsck on boot.

properly configured freebsd doesn't crash every day so spending an hour 
(at most) on fsck doesn't make a problem.
