Issues while trying to access an Ext3 partition successfully mounted on FreeBSD 7
Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p3 (amd64). I've two ext3 partitions on my disk which I want to be able to access (read-only) from my FreeBSD installation. But I can only access one of them (with no issues), though I'm able to mount both of them fine in my FreeBSD and GNU/Linux. Those filesystems are fsck-ed regularly after every n mounts. I'm experiencing this since I installed GNU/Linux on that partition. 8<8< % fgrep gentoo-root /etc/fstab /dev/ad6s2 /mnt/gentoo-rootext2fs ro,noauto 0 0 % sudo mount /mnt/gentoo-root % mount |fgrep gentoo /dev/ad6s2 on /mnt/gentoo-root (ext2fs, local, read-only) % ls -l /mnt/gentoo-root ls: /mnt/gentoo-root: Bad file descriptor % sudo umount /mnt/gentoo-root % ls -ld /mnt/gentoo-root drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jun 8 23:24 /mnt/gentoo-root >8>8 There are no errors (or messages) reported in dmesg.

Using gjournal + gmirror on 7.0-RELEASE-p1 (amd64) server
Hi list, I've two Intel Xeon dual core-based servers running 7.0-RELEASE-p1 (amd64). Those servers are running a software raid-1 using geom_gmirror. Today, when I rebooted them twice with 'reboot' command, raid-1 running on both servers got degraded to 0% + filesystem check resulted in 4-5 lost non-critical files. Later I found out that 'reboot' is not a recommended way to reboot a system, and I should use 'shutdown -r now'. Anyways, I'm thinking to use gjournal (in addition to gmirror) on both servers to avoid such situation in future. I'm already using gjournal on my desktop (with no gmirror) running FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p1 (amd64), with no issues. So, I wanted to know if gjournal + gmirror combo is stable enough to be used on a servers. And, if I go for gjournal, since I've an existing filesystem, I've to create a separate gjournal slice, so is it okay to create that gjournal slice on a non-gmirror backed storage, hmm...?

I didn't use Mac. I've a FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE (amd64) + Ubuntu Linux
8.04 (development/amd64) network at my place.
How about doing host name resolution over mDNS using
avahi-resolve-host-name or similar utility in your Mac ? Also, start a
tcpdump on em0 at FreeBSD end, to see if it receives any mDNS request ?
It also works, when any Windows box running Bonjour service, joins the
network.

Does you iTunes also show up on FreeBSD end, hmm..?

Quoting from sudo.c of sudo-1.6.8p12 in "init_vars(int)" routine:
8<8<
/*
* We avoid gethostbyname() if possible since we don't want
* sudo to block if DNS or NIS is hosed.
* "host" is the (possibly fully-qualified) hostname and
* "shost" is the unqualified form of the hostname.
*/
sudo_user.host_fqdn_queried = FALSE;
nohostname = gethostname(thost, sizeof(thost));
if (nohostname)
user_host = user_shost = "localhost";
else {
user_host = estrdup(thost);
if ((p = strchr(user_host, '.'))) {
*p = '\0';
user_shost = estrdup(user_host);
*p = '.';
} else {
user_shost = user_host;
}
}
>8>8
As you can see, it uses gethostname() to return the hostname. So, your
host won't be 'localhost' unless its not able to retrieve hostname or
your hostname is set to 'localhost'.
Why they did this probably because any entry for 'localhost' is valid
for execution on all machines, ;) .

Re: Anycast DNS - anybody?
>>>>> Regarding Anycast DNS - anybody?; Ewald Jenisch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> adds: Ewald> Hi, Ewald> Has anybody out there configured anycast DNS (where multiple instances Ewald> of a DNS-server run under the same IP-address in different parts of Ewald> the network) under FreeBSD? AFAIK, anycast requires magic at routing level. So that user will connect to the nearest DNS server (holding the anycast address). Ewald> I'm looking for some hints to get started, but googling around didn't Ewald> provide much info on that topic... It has do with routing so you need to investigate on routing protocols, like RIP, etc. 192.168.1.1 10.0.0.1network 10.0.0.2 192.168.1.1 [server1] --- [router1] =[router2] --- [server2] router1, router2 -- redundant routers connecting to different ISPs So if router2 receives packet destined for 192.168.1.1, instead of sending to server1 it'll send it to server2, since server2 is nearest to it, and vice versa. Above is a very simple configuration describing anycast. Since Anycast works only for connection-less protocols, you don't need to keep TCP connections synchronized between two servers, although both servers should behave identically, i.e. return similar records. BtW, I've never implemented anycast ever, so its fully based on my imagination.

Hmm..., this is strange. BtW, after adding modeline, you need to restart Xorg. Anyways to get modeline for "1024x768" you can try switching to 'vesa' driver temporarily, extract modeline for 1024x768 From there, and then enter that modeline in xorg.conf. I tried this method when I'm having problem setting my old 15" LG Studioworks 452V to display 1024x768 without getting clipped.

How about appending "1280x1024" to the above line. AFAIK, these modes are listed in the order of preference. See, if it works. 2. Another thing you can try, is to change the "VertRefresh", and "HorizRefresh" limits of your monitor, change them in such a way, so that X server won't be able to display 1280x1024 mode, resulting in switch to 1024x768 mode. Since 1280x1024 requires a lower refresh rate as compared to 1024x768, so .e.g. if 1280x1024 works on 60 Hz (vertical refresh rate), and 1024x768 is available in 60 Hz, 75 Hz, 85 Hz, then you can increase lower limit of VertRefresh, to something greater than 60. 3. Another thing you can try is mode setting, switch to 1024x768 using xrandr. And then use "xvidtune -show" to generate modeline, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ xrandr -s 1024x768 Now, in 1024x768 mode, enter this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ xvidtune -show "1024x768"136.75 1024 1536 1688 1936768 903 909 942 -hsync +vsync NOTE: Don't use above modeline, thats from 1440x900 resolution, except that I changed 1440, 900 to 1024, 768 respectively :) .
