PCMCIA controller/card problem
Hello, All! I've got a problem with configuring PCMCIA on my laptop (Toshiba Tecra700CT, very old model). The FreeBSD kernel detects PCMCIA controller successfully. pccardd starts, and even detects card insertion/removal, but says that no card in database for (null)/(null). So, it seems to be unable to retrieve card manufacturer and model from PCMCIA controller. This occurs on both 4.7-STABLE and 5.0-RELEASE. Both controller and card are working OK under Windoze. So, this is definitely not a hardware problem. Thanks in advance. -- regards, Akifyev Sergey [EMAIL PROTECTED] JSC Gascom http://www.gascom.ru PGP key available from: ftp://ftp.gascom.ru/pub/PGP-keys/asa.txt signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: nfs creates files with huge uids

Re: Cant find /etc/resolv.conf
On Thu, 2002-12-05 at 13:42, Tiago Andre wrote: Hello there... I've the last version of freebsd... But i cant find the file /etc/resolv.conf Why? The answer is: you didn't configure your networking via sysinstall. There is no default /etc/resolv.conf in FreeBSD distributions. It's created automatically when you go to configure/networking/interfaces menu in sysinstall (and couple of other cases). Tiago Camilo _ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

Re: install second ethernet card
On Thu, 2002-12-05 at 16:22, Tiago Andre wrote: [... part was ripped by viruses ...] What does ping6 say to you? No route to host I assume, that xl1 interface is up. So, it looks like you specified incorrect IPv6 netmask (or prefixlen). Double check this parameter! Next, look at netstat -r -f inet6 |fgrep xl1 output. It _must_ _not_ be empty. If it is, you should try to add route manually. I can not supply you with exact command, because you are hiding all the important information, like IPv6 address, prefixlen and routing table contents. You think all the world would be able to hack your home network, knowing just your private IPv6 adresses? The more you hide - the less you get! So, read man route(8)... What's your `ifxonfig xl0` and `ifconfig xl1` output? Can you be more explicit about this?? I asked you to give your `ifconfig xl1` output to take a look at your prefixlen. And netstat output to look if your box have properly set route for that interface. What address are you pinging (is it local for that interface) ? another host (my net) Does target host support IPv6? yes, whid the xl0 its ok, the problem is on xl1 It seems very strange to me... Are both interfaces plugged to same network? Or else, how would you ping same host from different interfaces (without setting up proper routing)? Without giving enough information about your problem you'll never get any useful answer. Be more verbose, please. And i think that the configuration is OK, i think... its equal from xl0 Equal configuration? What, except adress and netmask, did you configure? yes Wow!

How about just setting a cron job to run some reasonable period prior to newsyslog being run? It's incorrect way to do things, because some entries could be added to syslog _after_ the command is run, but _before_ newsyslog. Instead you should call some script via cron with crontab entry like this: # rotate log files every hour, if necessary 0 * * * * root/usr/bin/lock_script.sh And the script must contain something like: #!/bin/sh for $STR in `cat /etc/newsyslog.conf |grep -v '^[:space:]*#.*$'|cut -f1`; do lockf ${STR} newsyslog.sh ${STR} done The newsyslog.sh should contain: #!/bin/sh your_command ${1} newsyslog ${1} Nathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message Regards, Sergey To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Is there some way I can do this without a reboot? You should execute hostname your-FQDN-here then, restart all daemons (it's usually done by sending them HUP signal, but better look at their manpages to be sure) and don't forget to restart init and syslogd! regards, Ded PoXoron To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
