Where does a port store a saved configuration file?
Hello list, I had a question regarding where in FreeBSD5.3 the configuration file for a port is stored. I've been trying to find the saved configuration file that Snort created upon me selecting what options to include during the make install. I had included support for Prelude, since I've never used it before, I figured I'd try it out. Unfortunately, prelude has not been updated for Snort 2.0 yet. I'm trying to find the saved configuration file so that I can remove it and reselect what options I want snort built with, but no luck. Anyone know where it's located at? thanks __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Where does a port store a saved configuration file?
I should have specified that the port never properly built and installed itself. I got a few responses ran a make rmconfig.

USB2.0 External IDE connections
Has anyone had any luck in using external USB2.0 enclosures on FreeBSD 5.3? I've picked up 2 of them with different chipsets and have 2 USB2.0 to IDE converter cables. My kernel has support for ehci so that's not an issue, but every time i plug one of these devices it, it's detected as da0 and a umass device, and I'm told data transfer is limited to 1Mb/s. attempting to mount da0 doesn't work. has anyone had any experience in using these types of devices? thanks scott __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: NDISAPI in the kernel

My atheros based pccard only works if inserted on boot, or at least before starting any memory heavy applications such as Mozilla and OpenOffice, while XEmacs is no problem. If I insert the card after I have started Mozilla, I need to reboot to bring it up. I have also observed the No buffer space available error. It appears that the card needs a reserved continuous chunk of memory to work properly. As you use your laptop, some apps fragment the memory. I have also experienced that if the card has been idle for a while it sort of disconnects. Using arping I can get things up again, but not with a simple ping? I don't think usin NDIS will solve the problem. AFAIK NDIS is for use when everything else fails or a driver is not available.

The error i found is in /var/log/messages is shown here: pluto kernel: ath0: association failed (reason 1) for 00:09:5b:73:3b:24 I went through the man page for ath and was unable to locate an explanation. I did have a possible thought of setting the D-Link card to a fixed transmit speed just at 802.11b speeds, would that make a difference, if so, does anyone know how to configure the speed. This device is using an AR5212 chip. Please let me know if so thanks scott __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Here's what I got: This is my ifconfig for this device ath0 before executing a new ifconfig command: pluto# ifconfig ath0 ath0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::20f:3dff:fea9:3645%ath0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:0f:3d:a9:36:45 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (DS/11Mbps) status: associated ssid 1: channel 5 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 wepmode MIXED weptxkey 1 wepkey 1:40-bit See it says it's associated and has picked up a channel, but no IP! pluto# ifconfig ath0 inet 192.168.2.180 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid wepmode on weptxkey 1:0x123456789 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists So I gave that command a shot and still looks like an issue. very strange. I've turned the ath0 interface up and back down again several times, any thoughts on why this card can't pull an IP? Note: I'm running MAC Address control on the Wireless router I'm using and ath0 is in there and allowed. Also, I've set the router to use 40 bit WEP encryption and open authentication.

I figured maybe I was using the wrong shell... if so how do I change shells? is this the problem? the reason I figured it was the wrong type of shell... is because del/delete doesn't backspace either, it gives me weird characters like ^something the delete/del problem might just be that is a rule my admin had set or something but I don't know so I'm not really concerned with that but if it helps to understand what I might be doing wrong then shout it out right? thanks in advance for any help/advice you can give -Mark Hillis- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I broke 5.0 while attempting upgrade to 5.1
Hello Everyone, First off, I wanna say thanks to all the help this list has provided and continues to provide. With every new failure comes help from one of you and then I learn and can contribute to others as well. So here's what's going on now... I attempted an upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1(I've heard upgrade is rough at times). Whenever trying to perform this upgrade I get weird kernel panics(this is when I choose to upgrade my src as well). So I gave it a shot without upgrading source and it tells me /mnt is full(I believe this is not the true /mnt, but rather the backup directories it uses to preserve existing files). So now I'm SOL and cannot boot. I have a dd image of my drive as well as dumps of each partition(for once I did this..thank god). The problem I'm running into is how the heck can I restore the entire drive with dd or restore. I know the commands to use, however, I need something to boot to. Here's the thing. I have the FreeBSD5.0 Disc 2 and I can start a shell when going into the Fixit option..however, from here I'm kind of lost. Is there a HOWTO on how to use CD2 out there for common functionality? I am unable to even mount /dev/ad0s1. Any help out there?

need a HOWTO on upgrading 5.0 to 5.1
I had posted earlier today and have managed to restore my old system to its former state. here's the trouble I had run into when trying to do a sysinstall upgrade from 5.0 Release to 5.1 Release(i need to do this for bluetooth). When trying to run a sysinstall upgrade I get kernel panics, yet when attempting a clean install of 5.1 it goes fine and I can even boot. Has anyone seen a good HOWTO on how to upgrade 5.0 to 5.1? I've read the handbook and a few articles online but I've had zero luck...it might be due to the fact that I may not have enough space for 5.1 install to save my old files and i'm going to try to expand my partitions, but I was hoping someone out there had upgraded successfully before.. anyone? :) ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
how do you get dump to assume yes to its questions
Hello all, I've managed to start utilizing dump and the flags to exclude certain directories. The problem i've run into is when i try to back up /usrit's so big and dump breaks it up into tinier pieces(i'm dumping to a file). it asks me if the new volume is mounted and ready to go. Obviously it is...is there a way for dump to just run through all this without bothering me? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
using Ghost to back up a UFS partition
Hello All, Was wondering if anyone on the list had ever backed up a UFS partition from a BSD box to a Windows Host as an Image file. I've selected the option to do a sector copy(as ghost does not understand ufs by default) and the console on my windows box says a session is in progress, however, no data ever goes across. I'm wondering if anyone else run into this problem while multicasting. The error logs show that the server requests the client(the BSD box) to use unicast modei've tried this with two different NICs both 3com and Netgear and no luck. symantec's site has been no help was hoping someone on the list had done this before. scott ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: dumping the contents of a hard-drive
What would you guys say would be the best method of dumping a live file system and excluding a certain group of directories(namely /tmp and /mnt)? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Maltese Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2003 11:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: dumping the contents of a hard-drive Hi.

first time with growfs
Hello all, So I've been reading the man page for growfs and I'm ready to use it, however, I'm concerned about not utilizing it properly and destroying things. Here's what I got: I have my primary drive(ad0) split up like this. The first partition is a 6GB space which holds all of the slices for my FreeBSD 5.0. The second partition following that I've reserved as 6GB for my future OpenBSD install. Now, I'd like to create a new partition right AFTER the OpenBSD reserved space and I'd like to add that additional space on for the FreeBSD portion. I'd like this to be transparent. Basically, I'm trying to increase the overall size of the FreeBSD partition. Can anyone recommend a best practice for this or point me to a good reference?

RE: sym links
Gave it a shot, however, I still get a message that the link is a directory. It is not allowing me to unlink the symlink. Any other suggestions?

intellimouse scroll wheel problem
Hello all, Had a question in regards to the MS Intellimouse(USB) and X. I finally got it working right, for a while I'd move it and it would jump around in the left corner. I changed the MouseProtocol to be MouseSystems...not sure what that means but I saw it on here. Here's the problem, the scroll knob doesn't work. Anyone had any experience with this mouse and getting it to work right. I tried using a converter to ps2 and the thing isn't even recognized as working.

Intellimouse Wheel in X
Hello, I got X setup and running finally and I'm using an MS Intellimouse USB. The thing works ok(after I got it to stop bouncing in the corner) but the wheel isn't functioning. Anyone had any experience with this mouse in X? My config file has MouseSystems as the protocol and the device as /dev/sysmouse I'm considering using Auto for protocol and /dev/ums0 for the device...but was wondering if this is the right solution.
