Is this a feature or a bug?: system hanging if loading the if_tun module at the boot time while it is already compiled in the kernel.

2009-03-10 Thread Leonid Satanovsky

__
The Issue:
Hi... we had the following issue:
   the system hanging with FreeBSD 7.1, amd64.

It seems that the reason in
loading the if_tun module at the boot time (/boot/loader.conf: 
if_tun_load=YES),

while it is already compiled in the kernel.

It appeared only when the OpenVPN appliance started and tried to use  
tun interfaces.


__
The Question:
Is the system hanging is to be considered "normal" in this case?
(in other words, is this a feature or a bug? =)) )

__
P.S.
the only related log messages we got in /var/log/messages were
<...>
/var/log/messages.1:Mar 10 11:32:10 gw-office-hpp kernel: Module if_tun 
failed to register: 17
/var/log/messages.1:Mar 10 11:45:42 gw-office-hpp kernel: can't re-use a

Take a look at http://www.highpoint-tech.com/ Good cards which are
well supported in FreeBSD.

They seem to, ask Moxa for details. All we had to do is to add
the pci id.

Does anybody know whether the SATA raid controller on Asustek's P5M2-M

We are choosing a motherboard for a low-end mail server (this is a small

Re: Question about restore

2008-02-02 Thread Leonid Satanovsky

Hi there!


(1) You MAY TRY Frenzy [ http://frenzy.org.ua/en/ ] FreeBSD LiveCD 
distribution for the task.

I didn't, but, I think, it MAY help you. )

-
(2) I failed to do thing like this from the FreeBSD CD in FixIt mode... 
It said something like "not enough space (on a memory filesystem)",

*as I remember*.

(3) My way:
I first install a minimal distribution of FreeBSD on a new machine, then
do something like
# cd / && gunzip -c /mnt/remote_storage/old_host_root.dmp.gz | restore 
-ruf -

<...>
# shutdown now
<...>
# exit (or  + )
login:
<...>
:)


Good luck!

Hi list,

I want to migrate one of my server (machine A) into another (machine B). My
choice is using 'dump' and 'restore'. I've dumped all of my filesystem into
third machine (machine C)  over ssh. All went fine.
Then, I want to restore it into machine B. This machine is newly fresh, no
freebsd inside. My plan is restore the dump file into it by using installer
CD. I use the cd/dvd fixit mode. At this time, my confusion begun. To
restore it,  I need to create the slice.  I  did 'fdisk' and 'disklabel'
from sysinstall. But it failed. I followed tutorial from
http://devpit.org/wiki/Dump_and_Restore_over_SSH [of course with some
adjustment], but I still failed.

My question is, how is the right way to do the restore in a system that
hasn't been installed with freebsd at all? From what I get in google, every
restore example is done on a system that has been installed an OS.

Thanks a lot guys!

Re: The question about Broadcom BCM5721 ethernet adapter integrated in motherboard, on PCIe and FreeBSD6.3

2008-01-27 Thread Leonid Satanovsky

(1) Thank you for answering!
(2) Do I correctly understand that from the OS's "point of view" there's 
no difference between

Broadcom adapter being attached to PCI bus or to PCIe? Or am I wrong?

Ted Mittelstaedt wrote:

Yes.  All of the Broadcom chips are the same and are supported
by the bge driver.  However, Broadcom and it's various motherboard
customers seem to like to use different PCI id strings for the
chip, and so you may find when you install it, that it does not
detect the chip.  A typical example of the problem is here:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/119779

and the fix, shown in this PR, is easy to implement.  Basically,
boot FreeBSD, if the chip isn't detected, run pciconf and take
the output and patch the driver detection and you should be
fine.
