database or overview about servers
Hi, I was asked by management to put information about all our servers (OS release, machine type, disk space, RAM space, installed databases, development tools, ...) into somehow an regulary updated overview, perhaps based on a database or XML files (we are speaking about less than hundred systems, most of them UNIX types, some XP). It would also be nice if some of the above mentioned information is updated automatically by fetching them over night across the network with some kind of scripts (for example OS, disk and RAM). At least the presentation should be done in HTML. Before I start to build something from scratch by my own hand, I wanted to ask if there is something in FreeBSD ports for that or if someone is knowing a good tool for that.

Ekiga FreeBSD 6.0-REL
Hello, I've successful ported Ekiga to my FreeBSD notebook from the sources (version ekiga-2.0.2); maybe it is interesting for the port-maintainer as well, because the port is marked as broken: rebelion# make === ekiga-2.0.1_2 is marked as broken: Unknown component gnomedocutils. rebelion# there have been only a small external refs clashes in a header file which I solved by un-defining some external symbols (of course this is not the right way to solve this): $ diff /usr/local/include/libintl.h /usr/local/include/libintl.h.orig 118d117 #undef gettext 135d133 #undef dgettext 154d151 #undef dcgettext 236d232 #undef textdomain 255d250 #undef bindtextdomain 274d268 #undef bind_textdomain_codeset and a tweaking of the ./configure script because FreeBSD 6.0-REL comes with an older version as port of the gnome-doc-utils: $ diff configure configure.orig 2316c2316 GDU_REQUIRED_VERSION=0.2.1 --- GDU_REQUIRED_VERSION=0.3.2 but the 0.2.1 seems to work as well. Ekiga installs fine for the rest and local audio-loop-back is working. My main question is, what could I do for the video grabbing in my notebook? Are there some external LAN based cams working with Ekiga and plug-in's for them?

gcc-3.3.6 / gcc-3.4.4
Hello, I want to install gcc-3.3.6 from the port /usr/ports/lang/gcc33 to do certain test if a problem in Mplayer depends on the compiler version of the gcc-3.4.4 which has FreeBSD 6.0-REL installed per default. I'm ready to run 'make install' but I'm unsure to do. Will the /usr/ports/lang/gcc33 overwrite the actual gcc-3.4.4 installation? The installed gcc does not seem to be a package itself: # /usr/sbin/pkg_info | fgrep -i gcc # And if it overwrites the actual gcc, how can I go back to gcc-3.4.4?

mplayer (from CVS) win32/wmvadvd.dll
Hello, I'm trying to play a stream with mplayer from $ mplayer mms://80.84.129.169/telesur45 The stream needs the newer video codecs Windows Media Video 9 Advanced which comes from the (Windows) DLL wmvadvd.dll. Of course, it did not work out of the box with the version in the 6.0-REL port of mplayer and the mplayer folks directed me to fetch the current from their CVS. I did so, compiled it and now I'm already able to play the audio from the stream but the codecs for video from wmvadvd.dll does not work. The mplayer folks claime that it works for them with exactly the CVS version on *Linux*, ie. they tested the above stream and both, video and audio, are fine. So I digged into the sources to get why it says 'Unsupported WMVA version' and it turned out that they map somehow the above DLL in memory and awaiting there at special offsets some code or whatever, which does not match and so they can't use the DLL. The c-file which does the mapping of the DLL to memory (loader/pe_image.c) has a comment saying: /* Notes: * Before you start changing something in this file be aware of the following: * * - There are several functions called recursively. In a very subtle and * obscure way. DLLs can reference each other recursively etc. * - If you want to enhance, speed up or clean up something in here, think * twice WHY it is implemented in that strange way. There is usually a reason. * Though sometimes it might just be lazyness ;) * - In PE_MapImage, right before fixup_imports() all external and internal * state MUST be correct since this function can be called with the SAME image * AGAIN. (Thats recursion for you.) That means MODREF.module and * NE_MODULE.module32. * - Sometimes, we can't use Linux mmap() to mmap() the images directly. * * The problem is, that there is not direct 1:1 mapping from a diskimage and * a memoryimage. The headers at the start are mapped linear, but the sections * are not. Older x86 pe binaries are 512 byte aligned in file and 4096 byte * aligned in memory. Linux likes them 4096 byte aligned in memory (due to * x86 pagesize, this cannot be fixed without a rather large kernel rewrite) * and 'blocksize' file-aligned (offsets). Since we have 512/1024/2048 (CDROM) * and other byte blocksizes, we can't always do this. We *can* do this for * newer pe binaries produced by MSVC 5 and later, since they are also aligned * to 4096 byte boundaries on disk. */ This let me some how thinking that there could be a missmatch between Linux and FreeBSD. Without deeper knowledge about how these DLLs are working I am lost here :-(( Has someone a comment on it? Can someone with a CVS version of mplayer try the above stream to ensure that it is not a local problem in my compilation? Any other idea?
