You could have found it out by refering to "man mount". :-)

There are _few_ side effects that _may_ apply when using the -u
option. From the manual:

The -u flag indicates that the status of an already mounted file
system should be changed.  Any of the options discussed above
(the -o option) may be changed; also a file system can be changed
from read-only to read-write or vice versa.  An attempt to change
from read-write to read-only will fail if any files on the file
system are currently open for writing unless the -f flag is also
specified.  The set of options is determined by applying the
options specified in the argument to -o and finally applying the
-r or -w option.

So I'd say you should always take care that write operations
are finished properly (and so brought to an end).

Question on "zero signal"

2012-12-10 Thread Michał Stępień

Hello,

I try to use freebsd 9.1RC3 for my mpd music station (running nfsroot by
the way). Generally everything is ok, but there is one functionality I
miss from linux. My DAC behaves quite weird when no signal is sent to it
(with spdif, in my configuration it is pcm1).
Namely my dac produces noise in such situation. In linux there was
workaround. Under linux card sends some king of zero signal. DAC is
satisfied and produces noise not any more. In loudspeakes is silence if
mpd is stoped. Audio device is not kept by application -- signal is sent
by driver itself.

Re: getting packets on a specific port by pf

2012-12-10 Thread takCoder
hi,

suddenly this occured to my mind that, as you know, each firewall has a
virtual interface on system which they listen to..

so, isn't it possible to just forward required packets from ipfw to pf's
virtual if?

i have to mention that this is just an all-of-a-sudden idea and i'm not
sure about it's being right at all..

may be someone else can give both of us a tip on its being right or wrong??
:)

regards,
takCoder

Well for production servers I have the habit of staying on 8.3-RELEASE, in 
this case, which is supported until April 30 2014 and then move them to 
9.1-RELEASE

I have been doing so for previous releases also, no need to get worried.

For personal and testing systems, like being not for clients production 
systems, I use whatever is desired, RELEASE, BETA, or RC (freebsd-update) 
and STABLE, or CURRENT (source svn)

FreeBSD Release Date Challenge, plus other stuff the project needs

2012-12-10 Thread Anonymous
We, the users of FreeBSD, *do hereby challenge* the FreeBSD project
to meet its future release dates.

Why: Because the FreeBSD project has not met a significant number
of its release dates. It's an apalling state of affairs and makes
you, the project, look silly. Business and personal users plan
elements of their schedules, budgets and capabilities around OS
updates. And the continual failure of FreeBSD to deliver causes us
to have no alternative but to look at our bosses and just shrug.
We've taken to padding it out a week, two weeks, a month, two
months... just to cover the random slippage. Since there seems to
be no public statements about this ongoing situation, we might as
well pad it to a quarter or a half... FreeBSD's already a half
behind on status reports.

No one is asking for a commercial dictatorship here. But please
FreeBSD, coordinate better amongst yourselves!!! Be honest about
what is and isn't going to make it. Grow the wiki as your central
coordination center [ie 1] and start moving dynamic docs from www
to there (the community). Replace GNATS (omg, ugh), SVN, and even
MoinMoin so the world can interface with some things that it has
some (good / market leading) experience with [2].

Other than that, FreeBSD is great :)

First I'd suggest to read on generic UNIX system design
which can already be considered a security feature. FreeBSD
implements many other additional features.

Maybe you'll find those entries useful for investigation:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/security.html

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/faq/security.html



> What are some high lights that you have for IPv4 and IPv6 routing?

Again, the documentation should help you to find out what
you need to know:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/advanced-networking.html

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-routing.html

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-ipv6.html



> Why does freebsd handle the networking protocols differently than others,
> that makes it better?

I'm not sure what you mean by "better". FreeBSD's implementation
_differs_ from those of other systems. As FreeBSD is open source,
you can inspect all the inner workings to form your own opinion.
That should at least give you some inspiration on the "why".
FreeBSD's networking stack has proven to be reliable and efficient
over many years, and being "ready for the show" (especially in
regards of IPv6 features) prior to many other systems.

Can't set xfce4 logout dialog buttons

2012-12-10 Thread David Demelier

Hi,

I added a file for handling shutdown / reboot for Xfce4, the content is 
located in 
/usr/local/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/51-sys-mgmt.pkla.


[Restart]
Identity=unix-group:operator
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.restart
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes

[Shutdown]
Identity=unix-group:operator
Action=org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.stop
ResultAny=yes
ResultInactive=yes
ResultActive=yes

But clicking on the on the logout button, will open the xfce4 dialog and 
only shows "Logout" all others buttons are grey'ed. I have exactly the 
same setup on my laptop but with a [Suspend] added, and on my laptop the 
dialog show Logout and all buttons authorized.


On my both machine my user is in the operator group, so I don't know 
where I missed something for this machine..


Do you have a better idea?

Hi there,

Sometimes, Xorg got stuck but I can't reproduce it always. When it
appears, Xorg just stop being usable and mouse / keyboard can't be
used also, switching to tty does not work at all and the screen is
frozen.

But I still can use ssh to connect the broken host and shutdown it
normally, Xorg will use 100% of CPU when it breaks like this.

I noticed this message when it appears :

EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.

I'm using the nvidia nvidia-driver-304.64 on FreeBSD 9.1-RC3

Cheers,

WITHOUT_NOUVEAU is already in my make.conf..

Cheers,



Let see if the 310.19 version will clear the problem, by the way why 
this version is not in the ports yet, because of the ports freeze?

It appeared again, without doing much stuff but I can get these message 
from kernel when it appeared :


NVRM: GPU at :01:00: GPU-a259b0bd-20f2-e5b9-681f-848cadfd1d79
NVRM: Xid (:01:00): 8, Channel 0001

I need to find a solution, if not I will need to remove FreeBSD and 
switch back to Linux, thing I don't want to.

What security features, set freebsd above other operating systems?

What are some high lights that you have for IPv4 and IPv6 routing?

Why does freebsd handle the networking protocols differently than others,
that makes it better?

You could try freebsdmall.com.

Unless you wish to get the the KMS stuff working like Warren Block
suggested, I strongly advise getting a Nvidia card as of
currently that is the easiest and most reliable way to get good 3D
under FreeBSD.
