First off, welcome to FreeBSD. To add to what the others have stated, take  
a look at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.2R/announce.html


Basically, you would use the DVD image or if you only have a CD drive,  
just 'disc1.iso'. If you need additional packages and don't have an  
internet connection on the machine you are installing FreeBSD, then you  
may want to get disc2 and disc3 as they contain other, third party,  
packages ready for use with FreeBSD.


Hope that helps

hi,

I can edit quotas by edquota, but with setquota command it is impossible

~# setquota -u -f /dev/ad0s2f.eli -bh1 stewe
setquota : /dev/ad0s2f.eli is not a valid filesystem.
  

Doing the following should work just fine:

~# setquota -u -f /home -bh1 stewe


does setquota support encrypted disks?
what should I do?

thank you

Setquota supports any UFS based file system it doesn't matter that the 
disk is encrypted or not. Just run the above command and it should work.

reboot.  You can't kill a process with a D flag.  Google for
uninterruptible sleep


There is a rare exception that doesn't always work. But you can find 
processes that have locked onto that mount point and kill those. Then 
try unmounting or killing that NFS mount.


Get lsof in /usr/ports/sysutils/lsof and see what's keeping that mount 
point open. Then kill those processes.


But again, this may not work. The only way to release processes marked 
with a D flag is to reboot.

Re: How to Update my Freebsd packages kernel and Core

2009-04-03 Thread Jacques Manukyan
First off, welcome to FreeBSD. As the others stated, FreeBSD is quite 
different in that there is a distinction between installing/updating 3rd 
party software (called ports), or the base operating system (kernel and 
system).


There are multiple ways to update the base system and kernel as well as 
the ports. You can choose to do binary installs or build from source. I 
prefer building from source when installing ports or updating the 
kernel/system since I like to control everything.


One great thing about FreeBSD is that there are multiple ways to do 
things so find what you feel best suits your needs and use it.


The handbook is the best place to start: 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/


I recommend you look at the following sections:

Installing and managing ports:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html

Updating ports and the operating system (kernel/system):
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgrading.html

Re: 2 - more ftp accounts into same folder

2009-04-03 Thread Jacques Manukyan
This sounds like a permission issue. Each user on the sub-folders 
(folder1, folder2, etc) need to be able to get into the /mnt folder 
within the OS.


What is the permission on the /mnt directory? Try setting it to 755 and 
see if that works.  Also, you can start pure-ftpd in debug mode to 
capture the actual error.  Look at the pure-ftd.conf file or add the -d 
option to the daemon for debug information.

Hello you gurus :)

I'm using FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE with pure-ftpd (unix/puredb 
authentification). I need to create 6 ftp accounts for each of the 
folowing folders, like so:


/mnt
 /folder1
 /folder2
 /folder3
 /folder4
 /folder5


As you can see some folders are inside the master folder, thus the 
issue. I can create (adduser) all users for all folders, but can only 
connect through ftp with the master user (the one for /mnt folder). 
Have no logs what so ever. Been googleing around a bit but didn't find 
anything precise.





Any ideeas are welcomed. Thx

Re: 6.x - 7.1

2009-03-30 Thread Jacques Manukyan
There shouldn't be any problems with the upgrade. I recommend you read 
over the following section in the handbook:


http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgrading.html

Also, since this is your first time doing this, I'd recommend you get an 
extra machine and install your current environment on it. Then try 
upgrading it as per the handbook. Once you're satisfied you've done it 
right, then repeat the process on your production boxes.

Re: / partition full

2009-03-13 Thread Jacques Manukyan
Definitely take a look at the /usr/home directory like Mehul stated. Try 
something like this to get a list of large files in that file system:


find /usr -type f -size +50M -exec ls -la {} \;

or

find /usr/home -type f -size +50M -exec ls -la {} \;

The above commands will print out a list of files above 50 Megs.

Also, you might have large log files lying around the file system taking 
up space.
