Kernel Variables Sanity Check
Based on someone elses historical message I tried changing the time counter from TSC to i8254 # sysctl kern.timecounter.hardware=i8254 and after doing some manual calculations I tweaked # sysctl machdep.i8254_freq=1187216 # machdep.i8254_freq: 1193182 -> 1187216 Is doing this safe? I'm concerned that there are unforeseen consequences to messing with these kernel variables. Ntpd seems to like this setup. Anything to make ntpd happy. And if I may, why can't ntpd do this? (Don't answer that.) I use the FINE software to set my clock so I don't have to. It's supposed to make my life easier.

boot0 loader minor problems
Hello, I have a minor problem with boot0 loader on Acer Extensa 5220. I have four slices: FreeBSD, Windows, FreeBSD, FreeBSD. The problem is that sometimes boot0 code loads OS from active partition no matter which of F[1-4] I press. Sometimes boot0 code starts loading OS from the default slice and gives me no chances to select the slice to boot from (I have ticks=12000!) Should it be a problem with my buggy BIOS? Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: NTPD on 7.1-PRERELEASE
There was recently a thread that I started relating to ntpd not starting correctly becuase DNS and network were not available at the time of start. Do a ps -U root | grep ntpd If you see 2 processes, then the thread I mention may apply to you. If you see one or no processes, then that thread probably does not apply to you. In the thread, we were talking about how the DNS resolver helper process did not return successfully, causing 2 processes to appear and the ntpd not working. The subject of the thread in question is "named and ntpd start order in rc.d". On Tue, Dec 23, 2008 at 10:58 AM, Jason C.

(grep -v effectively): perl -ni.bak -e 'm/SOMETHING/ || print;' file1 file2 fileN Matthew, I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to parse the above. What does the "m" [in 'm/SOMETHING/' do. i thought it was 'match' ... and another one, just FWIW: can perl's regex be set to ignore cases? It's the standard perl regular expression matching operator. See the section on "Regexp Quote-Like Operators" in the perlop(1) man page. What is does is quite similar in English to the way it's written in perl: it checks each line, and either matches SOMETHING or prints the line. Perl RE's can do just about anything (including some things that are actually impossible with pure Regular Expressions (like counting opening and closing brackets)). To make the match case insensitive just use: m/SOMETHING/i (There are several other ways to achieve the same effect: this is perl, after all) To delete lines by number from many files -- eg. exclude lines 3 to 7: perl -ni.bak -e 'print unless ( 3 .. 7 ); close ARGV if eof;' \ file1 file2 fileN The malarkey with 'close ARGV' is necessary because otherwise perl won't reset the input line number counter ($.) for each new file. yeah, it's pretty important to reset the counter to zero since i've got so many files. one way to avoid that extended line would be to embed the perl string within a /bin/shell script, :-) Scripts within scripts, eh? lol. Oh: a final question. does the perl regex match vi's /\ ? it seemed like this plot in /OLDSTRING/ failed last sunday. i'm not entirely sure, tho. No need to do that. perl is not just for one-liners, and it can be used as the interpreter on shebang lines. In fact, that's probably the most common way of running perl stuff. You can write the above (in a more long-winded way) as: #!/usr/bin/perl -n print unless ( 3 .. 7 ); close ARGV if eof; Save as a file 'foo.pl', make it executable by "chmod +x foo.pl" and then just run it as: ./foo.pl file1 file2 fileN I'm not sure what \ means in vi(1), but I'll hazard a guess that you're trying to match word boundaries. Sure perl can do that. You want the '\b' thingy[*], like so: m/\bfoo\b/ which will match 'foo' as a separate word. See perlre(1) for the gory details (but be warned, it's a long read). I did see another answer to your question by Jonathan McKeown who was actually a lot more thorough about how to do this than I was. He discussed the important point about what happens if eg. you apply the 'delete lines 3 .. 7' command to a file with only 6 lines, and more importantly how to stop that ruining your whole day. Cheers, Matthew thanks much, gary The range expression ( N .. M ) can take matching terms rather than line numbers, so you can also do things like: perl -ni.bak -e 'print unless ( m/FIRST/ .. m/SECOND/ )' \ file1 file2 fileN 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 [*] Described as a 'zero width assertion' in the man page, but that's too much typing. -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 7 Priory Courtyard Flat 3 PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Ramsgate Kent, CT11 9PW signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Yes, I tried starting it again and got the same result as before which is nothing at all happened. Apache HTTP server works fine, it starts with the computer in fact. I'm not sure if Apache's configuration would effect Tomcat, if so, the following is in rc.conf apache22_enable="YES" apache22_profiles="" apache22limits_enable="NO" apache22_flags="" apache22limits_args="-e -C daemon" apache22_http_accept_enable="NO" On Tue, Dec 23, 2008 at 1:46 PM, Glen Barber wrote: > On Tue, Dec 23, 2008 at 2:33 PM, Joseph Simmons > wrote: >> I have tomcat6_enable="YES" in rc.conf and I don't see any tomcat >> process when I ps aux.

NTPD on 7.1-PRERELEASE
My ntpd will not sync on my newly installed 7.1-PRERELEASE hosts. The configuration is the same as other correctly time synched hosts. They are behind the same firewall. The only difference is that these hosts are running 7.1. Does anyone have any tricks for getting ntpd to sync on 7.1? Did something time related change in the kernel?

Spot on! Thanks for that, it worked like a charm. I have a couple more questions below. Firstly, just for completeness, I've listed what the NAT and RDRs look like for others that may be interested. $vlan10_server -> macro for IP address of server on vlan10 nat on $vlan50_if proto {tcp udp icmp} from $vlan10_if to any -> ($vlan50_if) rdr on $vlan50_if proto tcp from any to ($vlan50_if) port 80 -> $vlan10_server port 80 pass in on $vlan50_if inet proto tcp from any to $vlan10_server port 80 pass out on $vlan50_if inet proto { tcp udp icmp } from ($vlan50_if) to any Remaining questions: a) I found I didn't need a reply-to statement on the redirect for the vlan50 interface above. Could someone elaborate or point to a URL that might help explain a little more why this wasn't needed and in what circumstance I might need a reply-to statement. There isn't much about reply-to in the pf pdf. Since my default route is on vlan60 as opposed to vlan50 where the redirect is, you'd think I need a reply-to at first glance. Is the single route-to (pass in on $vlan10_if route-to ($vlan50_if $vlan50_gw) from any to any) covering me here? If I had a redirect such as: rdr on $vlan50_if proto tcp from any to ($vlan50_if) port 80 -> $vlan20_server port 80 would I need a reply-to? b) I've also found I needed to assign IP addresses (doesn't matter what they are) to the actual interfaces the VLANs sit on within the FreeBSD box (int0 and ext0). If not, things don't appear work. Should this be necessary, and if so why? If I shouldn't need IP addresses on the actual interfaces themsleves I've probably mucked up someting else in the pf rules :) For example: ext0 (192.168.1.1) | -- || vlan50 vlan60 Thanks again for your help, Geoff ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

One of you mentioned access lists, and I assume that means I tell the wireless router which MAC addresses it accepts, and nothing else. Is there any other way to provide security? Like a password-protected network? What are the buzzwords for these security schemes? Which security scheme do you recommend for preventing random people within proximity from connecting to my internal netowrk? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" No virus found in this incoming message.

You should also encrypt the wifi traffic by using at least WPA encryption. For most wifi routers this is a checkbox and a key or a passphrase that you enter. All clients that wants access and have their MAC address in the access list will have to enter the passphrase/key on the first connect. This means that you control the MAC address list - all new wifi devices that wants to connect to your wifi LAN needs to get added to the MAC access list - manually by you. You also control the encryption passphrase - all wifi clients that wants to connect to your wifi LAN need to know the encryption passphrase. If you use WPA for encryption you will have a higher degree of security than using the old and hackable WEP. Of course both the MAC list and the encryption key/passphrase are stored in the wifi router - so if you don't set a proper password for admin access to this one - all is lost. You should disable wireless access for admin (remote management) to it - only allow cabled access and use a good strong password. Buzzwords? I dunno - I hope people on the mailing list help me out here... Is there a better/simpler way of doing this? Greetings /Roger For a good laugh ...

Re: "truss" is buggy?
It looks like the ptrace() syscall is the problem: DESCRIPTION The ptrace() system call provides tracing and debugging facilities. It allows one process (the tracing process) to control another (the traced process). The tracing process must first attach to the traced process, and then issue a series of ptrace() system calls to control the execution of the process, as well as access process memory and register state. For the duration of the tracing session, the traced process will be ``re-parented'', with its parent process ID (and resulting behavior) changed to the tracing process. I imagine that also explains why a truss'ed program will die if you kill -9 the truss process. It looks like the "reset parent when trussing" behaviour appeared back in 1996 (sys_process.s r1.21). The fix would probably be to store the pid of the tracing process somewhere other than p_ppid... My problem is that there is a process (namely, postgresql stats collector) that may have a bug inside. I was asked on the devel list to send in some traces so they can figure out why it is in an infinite loop, eating 100% CPU time. However, when I start truss-ing this process, getppid() call changes return value. The postgresql stats collector periodically checks if the postmaster (its parent process) is alive or not, and will exit unconditionally if the postmaster has died. After I start truss-ing, the stats collector exits, making it impossible to debug the problem. I'm not able to change the stats collector's source code, because I'm not a C programmer, and because it is a production server and this would be too risky. I also tried to install strace, but it is not available on my platform (amd64). I cannot move to i386, because (apparently) the problem exists on this platform only. Is this a hopeless situation? BTW I'm not an expert, but I believe that the process being debugged should not see any difference, and it should not be able to tell if it is debugged or not. I think this is a bug indeed. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

I asked that same question on the "FreeBSD-Ports" forum a few months ago; however, I never did receive a satisfactory answer. I believe it is readily apparent that it will not be included with the next release of FreeBSD; i.e., '7.1'. Since it does seem to work quite well under Linux, I was wondering if there was some fundamental flaw in FBSD that prevented it from working correctly here. Even so, failing to get a major project like Perl running properly in over a year on FBSD does not bode well for the OS. -- Jerry ges...@yahoo.com When everything is coming your way, you are probably in the wrong lane. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Perl 5.10?
Its now just over a year since Perl 5.10.0 was relased, but its still not in FreeBSD. (/usr/ports/lang only has 5.8). Can someone tell me why? Is there any way to get it working stably? Is there any schedule for when it will be added? This is a major release of a major language, not an obscure maintenence update.

There are some things you could do. - Use WPA2 if available or else at least WPA [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_Protected_Access] - When using WPA with pre-shared keys, use long and random generated pre-shared keys. And change them often. - You can turn off the broadcasting of the SSID [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSID] to discourage casual snooping. This will not deter a determined attacker, however. - If you are using the pf(4) firewall you could use authpf(8) as an additional security measure. [http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/authpf.html] It requires users to log in via ssh(8) and alters the firewall rules as long as the ssh session exists. This requires that the user must have additional authentication in the form of passwords or ssh keys in order to use the network. It provides an additional layer of access control.

True, so if Gilles' dad really wants to run dump, he most likely can. The .snap directory in the root of a (mounted) file system to be dumped has owner root, group operator, mode 0770 - paraphrasing from dump(8) - and then he'd need mount and write permissions on the dump destination. Doesn't sound too risky if Gilles trusts him enough to run shutdown :) cheers, Ian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Such unresolved cases are happen sometimes, but they are really rare. I have being reported only 2 or 3 of them while working on new driver.

Help with AMD64 install on nforce 590 sli motherboard
Hello, I am having a rough time trying to install freebsd on one of my machines. The machine in question has the following: ATHLON 64 X2 6000 , EVGA Motherboard 122-M2-NF59-AX (nForce 590 SLI), 2 SATA HDs, PATA DVDRW.. I have tried the following releases: Freebsd 6.4 Release, Freebsd 7.0 Release, Freebsd 7.1 RC1, and Freebsd Snapshot 8-Current. The snapshot of current panics, 7 & 7.1 I can get to the installer screen but no sata drive is detected. I see the controllers being detected fine. I upgraded the mboard bios to latest version. Raid is deselected in BIOS. I do not believe there is a hardware problem. The system currently boots Windows XP fine. I installed Ubuntu 8.10 AMD64 sucessfully and it runs find. I am at a loss of how to proceed.
