syslog-ng33 fails to build

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables EVTLOG_CFLAGS

See the pkg-config man page for more details.

It is strange, because previous build (on August 27) works without problems ...

Any idea??

lprof startup issue, QAssistantClient not found

2013-09-12 Thread Gary Aitken 
After installing (and reinstalling) devel/lprof,
I keep getting the error:

"The QAssistantClient executable was not found.  Make sure that 
 assistant(.exe)is located either in your PATH or in the $QTDIR/bin directory.  
 
 Help will not be availble until this is corrected."

I have both
  devel/qt4-assistant
  devel/qt4-assistant-adp
installed, but that doesn't seem to make any difference.

"assistant-qt4" and "assistant_adp" both exist in /usr/local/bin

If I create a symbolic link of "assistant" to either of the assistant* 
executables I no longer get the error message, but no help shows up either...

ideas?

It is possible. The OS provides the newfs_msdos tool.
There is no need to deal with "Windows" for this task.


Great, thanks.
I checked the newfs manpage but didn't look too carefully when the summary
line said "construct a new UFS1/UFS2 file system"

That's correct: newfs "refers to newfs_ufs" (which obviously
initializes a UFS file system), but there are other newfs_*
just as there are corresponding (and more) mount_* commands.

See "man newfs_msdos" for more details.


I see that; but was surprised newfs didn't see-also newfs_msdosfs.

Anyhoo...  ugh, I think I just screwed it up, not thinking things through.

After doing 


# newfs_msdos -F 32 -S 4096 /dev/da0
newfs_msdos: trim 62 sectors to adjust to a multiple of 63
/dev/da0: 979584 sectors in 30612 FAT32 clusters (131072 bytes/cluster)

Heads=255 HiddenSecs=0 HugeSectors=979650 FATsecs=30 RootCluster=2 FSInfo=1 
Backup=2

I can't mount it, and there are no partitions:

# ls /dev/da0*
/dev/da0
# mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0 /mnt/memstick
mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0: Invalid argument

Normally there is a /dev/da0s1.

I suspect I *should* have used /dev/da0s1 in the newfs_msdos cmd.

So, attempting to re-establish the partitions:

#gpart create -s MBR da0
da0 created
# gpart show -l da0
=> 63  7837633  da0  MBR  (3.8G)
   63  7837633   - free -  (3.8G)
# gpart add -t mbr da0
gpart: Invalid argument

now what?
Is mbr the wrong kind of partition type?
man gpart indicates the MBR scheme requires the GEOM_PART_MBR kernel option;
since the create succeeded, I'm assuming this is present?

Yes, I've done at least five fsck's with different options and there has
not been any complaints. The drive is not mounted at boot time.

Anyway, mount -v seems to have sorted it. It was already mounted to a
different mountpoint due to my own brain damage apparently although I
cannot recall ever doing it. Problem solved.

Maybe a fsck is running on the disk device? Also check "mount -v"
if the disk is really unmounted. Make sure any running fsck has
been finished and try again. In worst case, manually initiate a
file system check. Then try mounting the disk again.

That's correct: newfs "refers to newfs_ufs" (which obviously

Re: Network Question

2013-09-12 Thread Eugene 

Hi Daniel,

The easiest way is to check the LAN Config (or similar) page of the router. 
They usually allow one to specify fixed IP and hostname for the DHCP clients 
based on the MAC addresses.


Best wishes

Subject: Re: Network Question

That was easier than I thought. My initial approach already looked
something like
this, except that for the ip address I always put the machine's name as in:

machine1# ssh u...@machine2.example.com

which results in

ssh: Could not resolve hostname machine2.example.com: hostname nor servname
provided, or not known

I think the problem here lies with the /etc/hosts file where machine1 and
machine2 have
to be registered respectively. The thing here is that the ip isn't static
which makes
this approach somewhat difficult to realize.

Got it.

Thanks.

Normally I look at /var/db/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases.  Pretty much all of the home
routers also have the information accessible on it's administration page.
Really depends on that exact setup as there are a number of ways.

There's the rub. How do you determine the IP address of the other machine?

DHCP, unless configured with reservations, doesn't guarantee IP
addresses to remain the with machines that request addresses.

So, there are two ways to solve this problem:

o- As I mention above, use reservations in DHCP to tie IP addresses to
MAC addresses - this is a fairly manual process, and doesn't scale
beyond a few machines..

o- Use a DNS/DHCP solution whereby DNS is dynamically updated with an
IP address by the DHCP server when a machine leases an IP address to a
machine. This requires some work up front, but then takes care of
itself, so scales fairly well.

Re: Network Question

2013-09-12 Thread Daniel Nang 
That was easier than I thought. My initial approach already looked
something like
this, except that for the ip address I always put the machine's name as in:

machine1# ssh u...@machine2.example.com

which results in

ssh: Could not resolve hostname machine2.example.com: hostname nor servname
provided, or not known

I think the problem here lies with the /etc/hosts file where machine1 and
machine2 have
to be registered respectively. The thing here is that the ip isn't static
which makes
this approach somewhat difficult to realize.

Got it.

Thanks.

Try cd instead of acd. The acd interface has been "deprecated"
in favour of "SCSI over ATA" for optical devices (including
ATAPI CD and DVD drives).

# mount_cd9660 -e /dev/cd0 /mnt

In case the extended attributes cause problems, try first
without using them in the "normal way":

# mount -t cd9660 -o ro /dev/cd0 /mnt

Permission problems should not count here.

Also make sure it's really an ISO-9660 file system:

% file -s /dev/acd0 
/dev/acd0: ISO 9660 CD-ROM filesystem data '0110241307 

This example from a 8.2 system where the acd subsystem is still
being used. :-)

Proper cabling? Drive and media not covered with dust? ;-)

Just read your mail. I will have to take some time, to look into what you
have
said, as I have not yet used the concepts that you spoke about.

Another solution would be to install a new network card into both computers
and assign static ip addresses to them, but I do not want to do that.

Network Question

2013-09-12 Thread Daniel Nang 
Hello,

I have two computers, both running FreeBSD, accessing the
web via DHCP from the router. The setup looks like this:


   Internet
|
|
|
machine1.example.com --- Router --- machine.2.example.com
 - DHCP -- DHCP -


Both computers can access the internet with no problems.
So far so good...

My question is, if I can simultaneously have the computers access
the net as in the given picture and also let them communicate with
each other e.g. via ssh?


Thanks

Daniel

 Hello Damien,

 (First at all, thanks for your response).

 I do not want to insist too much with this silly thing, but(just in
 case)

 I've updated my sources today from 
 svn0.us-west.freebsd.org(base/releng/8.4), - previously to my first e-mail 
 - and:

 (Argentina's current TZ is GMT-3)

 -rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  74967 Sep  3 12:11 /usr/src/UPDATING

 The 'grepped' lines, shows me:

 8.3-RELEASE
 [...]
 8.0-RELEASE

 (But 8.4 still doesn't appear).

 (However, while grepping first lines in /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh
 shows me:

 # $FreeBSD: releng/8.4/sys/conf/newvers.sh 254632 2013-08-22 00:51:56Z
 delphij $

 TYPE="FreeBSD"
 REVISION="8.4"
 BRANCH="RELEASE-p3"

 (Same svn id for UPDATING/newvers.sh).

 Any clues? (What's your svn $Id for UPDATING? - I mean, the whole line,
 the last)

 Thanks a lot!

 Regards,
 Pablo Carboni.

 P.S.: The same happens for
 svn0.us-east.freebsd.org/base/releng/8.4/UPDATING.
 

 (Maybe I'm afraid for local syncing problems on my fbsd server)

Dear Dr. Matthew,

Thank you very much for your excellent advice.  Worked like a champ!
Now if I can get iced-teaweb/openjdk to open *.jnlp files to use java,
it appears that itweb-javaws is not working correctly.  Firefox
reports that the file *.jnlp downloaded, but it is not opened by java.
 Thank you very much sir for your help.

Best Regards,


Antonio
