Wireless Networking

2013-07-10 Thread Walter Hurry
9.1-RELEASE-p4 on amd64. This is a laptop with an Atheros 9280 wireless 
chip in a domestic setting with a single router and a cable modem.

I have never had to use wireless before, but am now in another room. I 
have followed the handbook, and it seems to be working well. One question 
though: 'ifconfig -a' shows *two* entries apparently relating to 
wireless: ath0 and wlan0. The wlan0 one shows the IP address (fixed, not 
DHCP), netmask, ssid and so forth, but the ath0 entry shows only:

ath0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 2290
ether 0c:ee:e6:80:ed:52
nd6 options=29PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g
status: associated

Is this how it should be?

zfs can't mount /usr after 9.1-release upgrade

2013-07-10 Thread Tom Worster
a freebsd box doesn't boot normally since upgrading from 9.1-rc3 to
9.1-release. it boots to the point that /usr is mounted, then errors

mount: /usr: unknown special file or file system

if i boot to single user, zfs mount -a manually, then it comes up fine.

what function key do i gotta press to make that not happen again?

tom

 Hi Walter,

Wlan0 is a clone of your wireless network card. So all the IP  setup is
applied to Wlan0.
You will find more information in the handbook
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-wireless.html and in rhe
ifconfig man page.
I hope this will help you.

Kind regards,
Alexandre

thanks for answering, michael.

i have now spotted the problem. the zfs_enable line in rc.conf was fubar.
i must have done some bad vi on it around the time i upgraded the base
system.

FreeBSD on Asus F70SL

2013-07-10 Thread Martin Siebel

Hello!

I recently tried (and failed) installing FreeBSD-9.1-RELEASE on my Asus 
F70SL Notebook.
I already created a thread in the official FreeBSD boards but so far no 
one could help me out with my problem. Since I really want to use 
FreeBSD with my Notebook I am looking forward to get the neccessary 
information here.


The topic in the FreeBSD boards can be found here:

Hi Martin,

Since you are creating the usb boot on an MS system, what happens when you
plug the dongle into the machine while running MS? If you see the iso file,
that could be the problem.

Also %always% make sure to use the Safe Eject feature before removing the
dongle. Its possible to receive a Finished message when a copy operation
is still in progress

How to get file from nfs id

2013-07-10 Thread Radek KrejĨa
Hello,

I have problem with heavy load of my nfsd server. There is connected about 70 
diskless machines, but in readonly mode. I catched traffic and get this:

21:00:39.715337 IP diskless-1.3297435097  storage.nfs: 112 getattr fh
Unknown/A27801CEDE115FA30A005CD908007ABA4200570CDB51
21:00:39.716229 IP storage.nfs  diskless-1.3297435097: reply ok 112
getattr REG 444 ids 0/0 sz 64944
21:00:39.716463 IP diskless-1.3297435098  storage.nfs: 112 getattr fh
Unknown/A27801CEDE115FA30A0043DE08007CBA4200570CDB51
21:00:39.719112 IP storage.nfs  diskless-1.3297435098: reply ok 112
getattr REG 444 ids 0/0 sz 82800
21:00:39.719453 IP diskless-1.3297435099  storage.nfs: 112 getattr fh
Unknown/A27801CEDE115FA30A0043DE08007CBA4200570CDB51
21:00:39.721636 IP storage.nfs  diskless-1.3297435099: reply ok 112
getattr REG 444 ids 0/0 sz 82800

Why is the same machine requesting chmod of the same file and is there any way 
to find out name of file from this long id?

Thank you
Radek
