Re: Virtualization of FreeBSD
O/H Norberto Meijome έγραψε: you mean problems with the lnc0 , as seen by FBSD in the VM? interesting, i've never had any problems, but I run VMWare server under Centos 4. I'll give the e1000 a try :) thx for the tip. send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Under various versions of vmware, lnc0 just choked and caused disconnection under the first few seconds in a simple stress situation (eg a 4MB file transfer over SSH, or some equal samba file transfer). The em driver was the solution to all these problems. If I remember correctly, selecting a x64 edition of guest OS or selecting 2 CPU cores, provides you directly with em instead of lnc. My opinion about MS virtual PC is that it gave me the once in a lifetime opportunity to capture a full BSOD in bitmap file. I put it as a desktop in a public PC, and laughed as everyone kept pressing Ctrl-Alt-Del. I dumped MS virtual PC shortly after. One serious tip about Vmware, is that when selecting disks, you can select a *physical* disk instead of a virtual and proceed with installation on that physical disk. Or you can keep a freebsd server installed on a virtual disk, then connect a physical disk on the same VM and dump/restore as you please. It has been tested with over 7GB OS installs and works like a charm. -- RTFM and STFW before anything bad happens _____ Thanos Rizoulis Electronic Computing Systems Engineer Larissa, Greece FreeBSD/PCBSD user ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Whats eating my cpu ?
O/H Nikos Vassiliadis έγραψε: Ah it's a virtual machine! Add to /boot/loader.conf kern.hz="100". This will make the kernel tick 100 time per second. The default is 1000 times per second, which might be a bit high for your virtual machine "server". Don't know if it's going to affect your situation, but it's good to set it this way, anyway. This goes for vmware server too. Although when I am running freebsd under vmware in linux, no changes are necessary and speed is just blazing. -- RTFM and STFW before anything bad happens _____ Thanos Rizoulis Electronic Computing Systems Engineer Larissa, Greece FreeBSD/PCBSD user ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: enable fetchmail system-wide mode
O/H Simon Barner έγραψε: Hello Gerard, I had to slightly modify it to work the way I wanted on my system. I would suggest that you do that 'AFTER' you have gotten it to relatively the way you want it to. Are these changes useful for other users, too?

The MTA handling the local domain is qmail, hence the required "forcecr" option. The timings (60sec per POP3 access) may seem agressive but I contacted the ISP and they have no problem with that and the client is happy to have nearly "email-chat" sessions. Users or abusers, as long as they pay the bucks chmod 0700 /usr/local/etc/fetchmailrc chown fetchmail:fetchmail /usr/local/etc/fetchmailrc (the permissions are already set anyway) /usr/local/etc/rc.d/fetchmail start Also there is a new option I haven't seen before. Suppose that fetchmail is sleeping and you want to wake it up *right now* to receive new messages: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/fetchmail awaken Watch /var/log/maillog for fetchmail activity. -- RTFM and STFW before anything bad happens _ Thanos Rizoulis Electronic Computing Systems Engineer Larissa, Greece FreeBSD/PCBSD user ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: trouble with samba
O/H Reid Linnemann έγραψε: The order in rc.conf makes no difference, the order of rc file execution is determined by rcorder(8). It is nice to learn a new thing every day, thank you! So this goes deeper than I originally thought. Looking at my /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba I see that: # PROVIDE: nmbd smbd # REQUIRE: NETWORKING SERVERS DAEMON ldconfig resolv # BEFORE: LOGIN # KEYWORD: shutdown ...so probably some of the services in the REQUIRE line are slow to start for our friends' machines and samba detects this and exits with Signal 6. This is well beyond my skills already. I am merely speculating here, someone with greater experience should probably look into this. -- RTFM and STFW before anything bad happens _ Thanos Rizoulis Electronic Computing Systems Engineer Larissa, Greece FreeBSD/PCBSD user ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: trouble with samba
O/H Jonathan Horne έγραψε: samba_enable="YES" # apcupsd_enable="YES" cupsd_enable="YES" A quick search by google says that: [quote] Signal 6 is SIGABRT -- see /usr/include/sys/signal.h. A process dying with this signal is usually due to it calling the abort(3) function. That generally indicates that the process itself has found that some essential pre-requisite for correct function is not available and voluntarily killing itself, rather than the process being killed by the kernel because it ran over resource limits or looked at memory addresses funny or something.
