 Aha! you have a permissions problem. Try running the following commands
 as root, with the device plugged in:

 chown root:wheel /dev/da*
 chmod 660 /dev/da*

this doesn't solve the problem:

# ls -l /dev/da*

crw-rw  1 root  wheel0, 128 Oct 21 15:34 /dev/da0
crw-rw  1 root  wheel0, 129 Oct 21 15:34 /dev/da2
crw-rw  1 root  wheel0, 130 Oct 21 15:34 /dev/da3
crw-rw  1 root  wheel0, 131 Oct 21 15:34 /dev/da4

but the output of file -s /dev/da* ist still as above:

# file -s /dev/da*
/dev/da0: writable, no read permission
/dev/da2: writable, no read permission
/dev/da3: writable, no read permission
/dev/da4: writable, no read permission

(and the same if I chmod to 666)

Trying to mount the mp3 player to one of these /dev/da#-files
yields
mount: /dev/da#: Device not configured

(the same after the camcontrol comands proposed by Frank Shute
in his reply.)


[btw: now there is a /dev/da0 again, but no /dev/da1, last time
I had no /dev/da0 but a /dev/da1, an so on; I've not yet found
out under what condition a given /dev/da# is created at boot time.
If I connect a usb memory stick then there appears automatically a
/dev/da#s#, some examples: /dev/da1s1, /dev/da4s1, /dev/da0s1,
/dev/da6s1 etc. The mounting of the memory stick to these dev-files
is no problem; I've only problems with th usb mp3 player.]



 These permissions will last until you remove the device. Now you can try
 mounting the devices. (try file -s first, to see what kind of
 filesystems are on there!)

 To be able to mount USB disks as a regular user instead of root or to
 make the permissions permanent, there are several things that need to be
 done, especially editing the /etc/devfs.rules configuration file. These
 are explained (among other things) on my FreeBSD page (especially the
 devfs section): http://www.xs4all.nl/~rsmith/freebsd/index.html

 Read this page and see if you can apply it. Don't hesitate to ask (me or
 the mailing list) if you have questions.

it's sufficient to mount as root
but at the moment I'm not able to mount at all

 Good luck!

 Have you tried just mounting da0 etc?  The may not be any slices.

yes, I tried all /dev/da*; in each case the result was

  and from usblist:

  | Generic USB MS Reader 1.03   at scbus1 target 0 lun 3 (da4,pass3)
 
 

 It looks like your player has a number of areas of storage e:g SD
 card, flash card, it's own internal memory etc. and they all have an
 associated device node:

 $ ls /dev | grep da

da1
da2
da3
da4

 You can manipulate these devices with camcontrol(8) E.g:

 # camcontrol stop 1:0:0
 # camcontrol rescan 1:0:0
 # camcontrol load 1:0:0


# camcontrol stop 1:0:0
Unit stopped successfully

# camcontrol rescan 1:0:0
Re-scan of 1:0:0 was successful

# camcontrol load 1:0:0
Unit started successfully, Media loaded

 should initialise /dev/da0 (the SD card?)

# ls /dev/da0
ls: /dev/da0: No such file or directory

# ls /dev/da*
/dev/da1
/dev/da2
/dev/da3
/dev/da4

 Then:

 # mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0 /mnt/dos

I tried it with all available /dev/da* devices:
mount_msdosfs: /dev/da#: Device not configured

 will mount it  you can read/write files from it.

 When you're finished:

 # umount /mnt/dos
 # camcontrol eject 1:0:0

 If you have problems, post back the signifigant parts of
 /var/log/messages and any other errors.

 Derek does have an important point.

 If you ever need to add any other workstations to the network, you will
 want to ensure that the IP you added to FreeBSD manually does not fall
 within the DHCP scope of the gateway.

 For instance, if you plug a Windows PC into the gateway, it will by
 default request an address via DHCP. If the gateway provides the Windows
 PC the same address as FreeBSD, you will have communication problems.

 Regards,

 Steve

I've changed the address according to Derek's helpful explanation.

Thank you both for your valuable help.

network configuration problem

2008-04-08 Thread Johannes-Maria Kaltenbach

Hello,

at the moment I'm using internet an emails via a 56k modem and ppp.
I want to change to DSL -- but I'm not able to do it without help.

I've bought a router/gateway from my provider (Telekom/T-Online)
which is called Speedport W 502V Typ A an has the ip address
192.168.2.1; it is connectet to an ethernet card (rl0).

The provider requests DHCP, but this doesn't work; I get the message

| Bogus domain search list 15: Speedport_W_502V_Typ_A (Speedport_W_502V_Typ_A)
| Invalid lease option - ignoring offer

several times and the error message Network is unreachable.

Then I assigned an address (e. g. 192.168.10.1) to the ethernet card
with the help of

ifconfig rl0 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0

and made it the default route:

route add default 192.168.10.1

output of ifconfig:

| rl0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500
| options=8VLAN_MTU

I cannot ping the router/gateway:

etc.


With firefox http://192.168.2.1; (to get the configuration menu of
the speedport) I get the error message:

| The connection was refused when attempting to contact 192.168.2.1.

and with telnet:

| Trying 192.168.2.1...
| telnet: connect to address 192.168.2.1: No route to host
| telnet: Unable to connect to remote host


What I'm doing wrong?
Can you please help me?

Thanks,
Johannes-Maria


P. S.: I'm using  FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE. (That's the only operating
system on my pc, so I cannot test or configure the speedport with
Linux or MS-Windows.)

Hello,

many thanks for your help.

The problem was already solved with the first answer I read
by Steve Bertrand,
...
 You essentially gave yourself an address outside of the gateways LAN
 address scope, and then proceeded to route all unknown traffic to yourself.

 You probably want:

 # ifconfig rl0 192.168.2.100 255.255.255.0

 ...and

 # route add default 192.168.2.1

Tanks also for your hint:

 Then, for name resolution:

 # echo nameserver ip.of.isp.dns  /etc/resolv.conf


I'm also thankful for all the other replies to my question, of course;
always happy to learn something.

Johannes-Maria
