Isn't that the same than Omni Completion[1] already present in Vim >= 7?

bapt@ made a proposal to improve the OPTION framework and it will be 
reviewed by portmgr@ soon.


This will include a improvment that obrien@ disliked much : when you 
have WITHOUT_NLS=true in your /etc/make.conf any port that use OPTIONS 
framework will not honour this knob and this is obviously painful.


The bapt@ patch correct this, so the the new OPTION framework will read 
these KNOBS (but of course there is more coming)

Can't rebuild kernel with ZFS v15

[Andre Goree]

Hello,

Ever since I upgraded to 8.2 a few weeks ago, I can't seem to rebuild my  
kernel without it being built with ZFS v14 rather than v15.  This is a  
problem because I'm using root on ZFS and my box won't boot after the  
kernel rebuild and reboot.


At first I thought it was because I rebuilt the kernel without rebuilding  
world, however the same thing happens even after getting up-to-date  
sources and rebuilding world.  Anyone else having this problem?


Thanks in advance.

Re: reverse dns in bind9

[Tim Dunphy]

Hello,

 Thanks for your reply!

  I took your advice and removed that line from resolv.conf and added
it into /etc/named/named.conf

  Now it looks like this

  // RFC 1912
zone "localhost"{ type master; file "master/localhost-forward.db"; };
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "master/localhost-reverse.db"; };
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "master/empty.db"; };
zone "192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "master/summitjnhome-reverse.db"; };

 And I did a restart of both network and named but the issue remains:


LBSD2# host 192.168.1.44
Host 44.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Nowhere do you mention that you moved all the PTR records into the 
192.in-addr.arpa zone where they belong, as noted by Robert Bonomi.  And 
why did you change


> zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file

to

zone "192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file 
"master/summitjnhome-reverse.db"; };


when your PTR lines only give the last octet?  Where do you expect the 
"168.1" to come from?

Robert said that you should replace 192.in-addr.arpa with
1.168.192.in-addr.arpa in your named.conf.

Your named.conf should be look like the following:

zone "localhost"{ type master; file "master/localhost-forward.db";
};
zone "127.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "master/localhost-reverse.db";
};
zone "255.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "master/empty.db"; };
zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file
"master/summitjnhome-reverse.db"; };

OK, I tried with 'portsnap fetch' command as root too, but it stall too:
Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 5 mirrors found.
Fetching snapshot tag from portsnap5.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching snapshot metadata... done.

Here (or at 67%, or at.. but never reach 100%) stall the download. :(
What can I do to solve this problem?

Hierachical jails devfs and rc.conf

[Holger Freyther]

Hi all,

in FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE it does not seem to be possible to pass children.max=X 
to a jail via rc.conf. What would be the best way of doing this? The next issue
is what kind of security review/testing is needed to declare nullfs jailsafe but
for now I can still bind my paths.

My biggest problem right now is the devfs. Is it possible to have /dev
statically populated and have it work inside a jail? E.g. an attempt to create
/dev/null and have it available to the jail is failing, I was cheating and
binding (via nullfs) a /dev from another jail and it started but I am having
difficulties when building things from the ports tree and it seems to be /dev
related.

So really quick question. Is there a way to statically populate the dev tree
with the minimum of needed descriptors? A first try with mknod /jail/dev/null
c 0... did not seem to work.

regards
  holger

Slow filesystem sync after upgrading from 8.0 to 8.2?

[Thomas Johnson]

Since upgrading one of our servers to FreeBSD 8.2 (from 8.0p2), we have
noticed that one of our shell scripts has begun failing. This particular
script is run by cron every morning and backs up the configuration files of
our routers. The script calls an expect script that connects to the routers
and has them push their config to the server using tftp. The script then
does some housekeeping on the resulting file. Since upgrading to 8.2, the
problem we see is that the file resulting from the tftp operation does not
seem to have any contents for ~ 5 seconds after the copy.

The script is pasted below. Trouble starts around line 31, when the script
greps to see that the hostname of the router exists in the tftp'd file (as a
basic verification of the copy). Grep reports back that no match is found.
I've found that by inserting a 'sleep 5' instruction before line 31, the
grep command works, and the script completes successfully. I have also
verified that the tftp transfer is completing before the script continues on
to the grep check.

For the sake of completeness, I have also included the lines I've added to
the script to make it behave, the syslog output showing that the tftp
transfer completes when expected, and [relevant] trace output of the script
before and after adding the sleep statement.

Does anyone have any idea what may have changed between 8.0 and 8.2 to cause
this behavior? Nothing directly related to this script changed, aside from
the OS upgrade. I'm not too proud to admit that this script isn't the
greatest and could be improved; but I would like to know why a script that
worked fine before, now fails. Also, if there is something that needs to be
tweaked in 8.2, I want to make sure I'm not just fixing a symptom.

The question is about hierarchical jails. Having jail_NAME_devfs_enable="YES"
inside a jail is not working as devfs is not a jail friendly fs. So I mount
devfs as part of the /etc/fstab.MYJAIL on 'root' but then by default the whole
devfs will be visible to child jails.

So my two questions are really:
- In rc.conf is there a variable I can use to pass children.max=N to
  one of the jails?
- Is there a way to have a 'default' devfs rule for certain
  mountpoints? E.g. can a rule be applied at mount time?

It looks like a network trouble. If portsnap fails to fetch, stop and
kill portsnap process then rerun it. when portsnap fetches all portstree
snapshot, run portsnap extract. It will update the ports tree.

Another way of getting an upto date ports tree is cvsup. consult the man
page of csup(1) -csup is cvsup- and sample configuration files are in
/usr/share/example/cvsup directory.


I hope that helps.

It looks like a network trouble. If portsnap fails to fetch, stop and

Finally I have success running 'portsnap fetch' command! :)
I must rerun it once or twice after I kill it with Control-C.

I don't know if anyone has filed a PR against this or not. If it is not
fixed by tomorrow and no one else files one, I will.

Did you already try "low level" diagnostics, i. e. checking
the output of "camcontrol devlist" and try to burn a CD or
DVD using growisofs / cdrecord / cdrdao? This should tell
you if you're fighting a nonfunctioning CD burner or just
a lazy application. :-)

Cannot boot from ZFS (GPT) after 8.1 to 8.2 upgrade

[Pratyush Dayal]

I had used this   guide to 
setup FreeBSD 8.1 in a ZFS mirrored configuration using GPT. I have the 
following setup:

% gpart show
=>63  1250263665  ad4  MBR  (596G)
  63  12502636651  freebsd  [active]  (596G)

 162 41943042  freebsd-swap  (2.0G)
 4194466  19493306693  freebsd-zfs  (930G)

After the release of FreeBSD-8.2, I upgraded the system using the procedure 
described in the handbook (with some changed options for ZFS). Here are the 
steps that I used:

# cd /usr/src
# make buildworld
# make buildkernel
# make installkernel
# shutdown -r now

Then booted the system in single-user mode and did the following:

# adjkerntz -i
# zfs mount -a <-(Changed from: mount -a -t ufs)
# mergemaster -p
# cd /usr/src
# make installworld
# mergemaster

However, 'mergemaster' (after installworld) complained that it cannot install 
the files as the file system is read-only. Therefore, I did the following:

# zfs set readonly=off zroot

The 'mergemaster' finished successfully after this and all the required files 
were installed. Now, when I reboot the system, it cannot load the kernel. I get 
the following messages and subsequently loader prompt.

'definitions not found'
'forth not found'
'can't load kernel'

My /boot/loader.conf has following lines pertaining to zfs:

zfs_load="YES"
vfs.root.mountfrom="zfs:zroot"

I managed to import the ZFS pool by booting through MBR disk with UFS partition 
(ad4...see above) which also has FreeBSD 8.2.

# zpool import -f -R /altroot zroot
# mkdir /mnt/zroot
# mount -t zfs zroot /mnt/zroot
# zfs list

Please help me troubleshooting the problem. I have posted this problem on

missing. I do not know how to proceed further!

webcamd vs rc.conf

[Steven Friedrich]

I have enable_webcamd="YES" in rc.conf

If I comment it out, it complains, and in, it complains.

None of these are going into any log file.  They do not get reported by a 
subsequent invocation of dmesg.

I think you're backwards.

I think it should be:
webcamd_enable="YES"

What happens when you use that?

Re: reverse dns in bind9

[Tim Dunphy]

hello list,

 I was able to make that correction:

zone "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "master/summitnjhome-reverse.d
b"; };
zone "summitnjhome.com" { type master; file "master/summitnjhome.db"; };


is now in named.conf. otherwise named.conf is identical to the way it
is higher up in the thread, and summitnjhome-reverse.db is untouched.

But as of now, forward lookups work, but reverse time out:

LBSD2# host sum1
sum1.summitnjhome.com is an alias for LCENT01.summitnjhome.com.
LCENT01.summitnjhome.com has address 192.168.1.42

LBSD2# nslookup sum1
Server: 192.168.1.44
Address:192.168.1.44#53
sum1.summitnjhome.com   canonical name = LCENT01.summitnjhome.com.
Name:   LCENT01.summitnjhome.com
Address: 192.168.1.42

LBSD2# host 192.168.1.42
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached

LBSD2# nslookup 192.168.1.42
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 192.168.1.44, trying next server
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached


Now I could probably understand it FAILING due to perhaps a type-o in
the config. But I am genuinely curious as to how forward lookups will
work and reverse lookups time out.

regards
tim

I would expect them to time out if your dns server knows nothing about 
the reverse zone; give or take how you connect to the rest of the DNS. 
What messages about zones loading did you get when you restarted bind? 
Where there any crabby comments in the log file about not loading 
master/summitnjhome-reverse.db due to error(s)?  Was that file mentioned

ruby cpu 100% hang during pkgdb -F

[Roland van Laar]

Hello,

I updated FreeBSD 8.0 to 8.2 with freebsd-update.
Everything went fine till I got to the ports:
I used the commands:

# portupgrade -f ruby
# rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db
# portupgrade -f ruby18-bdb

portupgrade -f ruby gave problems because of a security issue.
So I updated the ports with portsnap extract and update.
I upgraded ruby removed pkgdb.db
Here is where things went wrong.
portupgrade hangs while ruby eats 100% cpu.

# pkgdb -F

gives me this:

--->  Checking the package registry database
[Rebuilding the pkgdb  in /var/db/pkg ... - 185 
packages found (-0 +185)

Stale origin: 'devel/automake19': perhaps moved or obsoleted.
-> The port 'devel/automake19' was removed on 2010-10-07 because:
"No longer required by any port"
-> Hint: automake-1.9.6_3 is not required by any other package
-> Hint: checking for overwritten files...

Deinstall automake-1.9.6_3 ? [no] yes

And it hangs at 100% cpu.

What do I need to do to update my ports?

tldr: updated ports, rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db and pkgdf -F hangs at 100% cpu.

Tape drive for backup soloution

[William Brown]

Hi

I need to implement a tape drive backup solution at my place of work. I was 
wondering what is a good tape drive to get for this task, that works on freebsd 
with something like amanda. Its for a small business, and storing about 4TB 
max, and hopefully with some room spare for differential backups over time. 

My server on hand has sata and IDE available. 

Are there any recommendations that you can make about compatible solutions. My 
knowledge in this area is limited. 

Sincerely,

William Brown
