Wireless Networking
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? ___ 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
zfs can't mount /usr after 9.1-release upgrade
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 ___ 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

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.

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 Waitman Gobble San Jose California ___ 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
How to get file from nfs id
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?
