OT: awk/sed: how to use a variable in an address range?

2006-09-14 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
This might be OT in FreeBSD list, but hopefully some of yours is 
involved in sophisticated AWK programming.


To keep a small shell script portable I use awk for separating an ASCII 
file from a home brewn scientific model software. The datasets of the 
output is enclosed by


/begin_data_set_##/
.
.
.
/end_data_set_##/

## is a two-digit counter, but not necessesaryly equidistant.

I would like to separate the file contaning all datasets via awk or sed 
into appropriate files - this is my intention, but I failed.


the simplest way - in theory and in my limitit ability of using sed or 
awk - is to print all lines between the (sed/awk) addresses


/begin_data_set_##/
...
/end_data_set_##/

but this does not work due to i cannot use variables in the address 
range specifiers neither in awk nor in sed like this:


awk -v nc=$NUMBER '/\/begin_data_set_nc\//,/\/end_data_set_nc\// { 
do-something-in-awk}' $input_file > $output_file_$NUMBER


nc in this example is set to the counter of the desired dataset.

I would like to use SED or AWK only due to portability reasons.

Any hints are appreciated.

Regards,

Dear Jonathan.
Thank you very much.
FreeBSD 6.2-PRE amd64 does not show anything like you showed above, I 
regret. As I can see, OpenBSD already addressed the Super-IO chip on 
those boards while FreeBSD does obviously not - or there is a secret I 
havn't discovered yet.


I'm a little bit confused by the Temp 3 value. What is connected to this 
sensor line? It looks strange, mearly 130 degree Celsius ...

Sorry, maybe a little bit off-topic here.

I tried using GAIM as IM, but ran into trouble. Receiving documents is 
working, but with or without any kind of firewall sending files is not 
possible.


The GAIM installation is as is taken from the ports collection, firewall

Hi!  
  
I saw your posts with title "Performance issue amd64". I don't know if this  
could help, but I'm having the same problem with ICH5 SATA controller and the  
same Hitachi drives on linux. I cannot activate DMA, and bandwidth is lesser 
than 10MB/s. I could not solve the problem, until now. BTW, with "any" other 
drives, the problem does not exist.

I did not dig deeper into that problem - due to the lack of suitable 
hardware. Bonnie shows about 55 MB/s sustained performance, sometimes 
higher, burst reaches 117 MB/s. With the old disks, both values were 
about 25 MB/s higher. I doubt this is only a partition layout related 
issue. The average performance droped remarkable, especially while 
compiling world.


At the Hitachi website I did not find any hint about issues with several 
controllers or especially with SATA PseudoRAID like nForce4 offers, hope 
this can be fixed anyway and it's a simple firmware issue.


Checking the disks via the Hitachi brewn drive fitness tool gives no 
suspicious data, mode is SATA II/300, no accoustic or energy management 
and so on ...


I would appreciate any solvage, if you have one!

Well, in your case, I would check whether your drive is in SATA 150 mode 
(factory setting) or SATA 300, as I know the ICH5 is only SATA 150 and 
drives with problems switching to SATA 150 while in SATA 300 could cause 
problems.

Are you connceted directly to the net or over a router / server with nat?
If it's not directly you have to forward ports to the client pc for
direct connections (like  file sending)

  
My box at home is connected to the net via a DSL router. The box has a 
192.168.xxx.xxx Ip, and therefore, I think you sketched the problem the 
right way. Is there a way to do this automatically via pf(1)? It would 
be weird to forward each connection, most of them DHCP obtained IPs, by 
hand. Sorry, I'm not very familiar with that stuff ...

Sounblaster Audigy SE: no driver support/No OSS

2006-09-29 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
running FreeBSD 6.2-PRE/AMD64 and bougth a Soundblaster Audigy SE, based 
on the CS0106-DAT DSP.
I search Google and the mailing list and found some notes about this 
sound card and it seems not to be supported yet. Are there plans of 
supporting this sound card in the near future?


The commercial OSS drivers seems to support this Soundblaster, but with 
FreeBSD 6.2-PRE/AMD64, I only get weird noises out of my speakers and my 
box behaves a bit 'jumping' (driver problem?). I would appreciate a 
FreeBSD native driver.

You might want to try audio/emu10kx (however afaik there is some work on
importing that driver into the base system on CURRENT)

  
This above mentioned driver doesn't support the sound card in question,

FireFox/Thunderbird: Won't save config nor save any extensions

2006-10-02 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I have a long lasting problem with both Firefox and Thunderbird running 
on FreeBSD 6.X/AMD64. After I made a backup by just copying my homes 
directory onto a DVD+RW and 'reinstalled' it by copying it back to my 
new home folder, I run into trouble with bot mentioned utilities, 
Firefox and even Thunderbird as well. The problem occured is simple. I 
can add and delete addresses in Thunderbird, but I can not install 
extensions, they were never listed although they're on the harddrive 
(you know, that small box where I can select an add on and install it 
already downloaded to a place on harddrive).
Another thing is the position and size of the window. Yo know, when 
closing either program, after restarting it opens at the same size you 
closed it. That is not true in my case, the utilitie simply reopens at 
the size just at that time I did the backup.
In Thunderbird, I'm nt capable of creating some sort of signature as I 
can do this at my lab's computer, running nearly the same operating 
system's configuration and installation.


I tried to 'mtree' the working directory layout to reveal the 
differences and get rid of them, but it didn't work for me.


Is there something that can do the 'trick'? Please let me know, I'll 
appreciate any hint.

qt-3.3/php 5.1.6 does not compile FreeBSD 6.2-PRE/AMD64

2006-10-26 Thread O. Hartmann
Hello.
Before sending a PR, I would like to ask you and maybe someone reveals
my faults in this subject.

Since a couple of weeks I can not build PHP 5.1.6 anymore. I can do it
by hand, but not with the ports system. cups and qt are dependend on PHP
and I would like to fix that problem. It seems that several ports do not
build anymore especially on AMD64 arch, since I have a i386 box (Pentium
4) with nearly the same software status and configuration and I can
check that there is everything o.k.

This is the last error when trying to build Qt library, it dies in PHP.
PHP dies with an error of a non working xml.

After I deinstalled PHP and several other stuff and tried to reinstall,
I can not install PHP anymore due to the shown error.

Any help is highly appreciated!

Oliver

That's it, I did the same!
So I need a dedicated WITH_THREAD for perl and in common non-threaded

FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT/Xorg 7.2: nv driver without OpenGL?

Hello List.
I run into a problems after upgrading a box from FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE/i386 
with Xorg 7.2 to FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT/i386 with Xorg 7.2.


Stellarium 0.8.2 as taken from the ports is frequently used by my 
department to produce some scenic pictures and Stellarium ran quite well 
on my box on FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE and Xorg 7.2. After changing OS to 
FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT/i386 and recompiling everything Stellarium quits 
working immediately after startup with this error message:

This happens with every resolution I try to start the application.

I checked the nv-X-driver for my nVidia graphics board and realized it 
isn't built with OpebGL support anymore as it was/seemed to be 
previously (Stellarium ran quite well prior to the OS change).


Does anyone have a clue?

Firefox 2.0.0.4/Thunderbird 2.0.0.4 do not install on FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT/amd64 UP

2007-07-17 Thread O. Hartmann
A week ago I did a buildworld and after rebooting I tried to start 
either Firefox 2.0.04 and Thunderbird 2.0.0.4 as they are both standard 
applications of my daily work. Both applications did not start, via 
top(1) I recognized on both clients a "STATE  ucond".
Well, I thought this could be due to a newer kernel and userland so I 
simply recompiled both Firefox and Thunderbird - with no success. Both 
installation processes get stuck in "===>> Building chrome's registry 
... " and never come back.


I do have two other boxes running FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT, one i386 SMP and 
another amd64 SMP and on both neither Firefox 2.0.0.4 nor Thunderbird 
2.0.0.4 show that weird 'ucond' STATE in top(). I never dared 
recompiling both applications so i can not say whether the problem is 
related to the one box (UP).


Does anyone have recognized this problem? How to fix it? Without having 
the specific port installed, how can I rebuild every dependency? If the 
port is already installed, someone simply need to type 'portupgrade 
-vrRf port", but is there any 'make' equivalent in the native 
ports-directory?

Are you sure that you were previously using the nv driver rather than
the nvidia driver?

AFAIK nv has never had any OpenGL support. x11/nvidia-driver is the
manufacturers own driver, with 3-d hardware support.
  


Hello.
I never used the nVidia BLOB, I was always with the open source driver. 
So, if "nv" never have had OpenGL support the error that occurs to me 
must be related to something else. But what?

Hi I had the same problem on a i386 up machine.
I just tried it again and it worked.
I changed the config options:
cd /usr/ports/www/firefox
make config
I had  OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS checked and i changed that to unchecked and it built 
and installed fine.

I regret, not to me ...
Tried to compile several stuff around with the OS native CFLAGS 
settings, but without success. If this means I need to recompile every 
port due to the problem I can't compile all firefox-relevant ports 
automaticaaly, this evolves towards a severe problem :-(

OpenLDAP: weirdness with slapd.conf vs. slapd.d/

2007-08-18 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello,
while fiddling around with OpenLDAP 2.3.37 as taken from the ports 
collection I revealed something strange. Looking at the manpage of slapd 
I was taught that if neither -F nor -f option is applied when the SLAPD 
starts, default config directory /usr/local/etc/openldap/slapd.d/ is 
searched for dn=config.ldif. So I did, I configured my own 
dn=config.ldif file as it is described in chapter 5 and 6 of the 
OpenLDAP Administrator's documentation. But with FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT and 
the port I run into something strange not being consistent with the 
documentation: the start of the slapd server was avoided by an error 
telling me there wasn't any readable slapd.conf file. What is that? Test 
with slaptest tells a syntactically correct slapd.d/ directory, but 
slapd won;t start. Touching an empty slapd.conf let the server start.


The documents tell one that slapd.conf is a kind of deprecated, but it 
seems still in use.


On the other hand, typing in the configuration taken from the 
Administrator's guide of OpenLDAP as found in chapters 5,6 does not 
work! Strange.

Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio

2007-02-13 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I need to know whether the
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio
is supported by FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT's snd_emu10kx(8)
driver. I do not know what kind of chipset this soundcard utilize. I 
made a mistake by purchasing a Soundblaster Audigy LS which isn't 
supported by the snd_emu10kx driverand is explicitely excluded, so I 
won't make a second mistake.

NO.


Yuriy.



All right,
then the question shouldn't be lined up on snd_emu10kx, I saw that this 
type of soundcard utilize the CMedia CMI8738 chipset and there is 
already a driver called snd_cmi.
The big, bad, ugly question is: will FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT support any of 
the X-Fi soundcards from creative?


I feel sad watching the market in Germany. Since the Audigy 2-type SB 
cards vanished there are only cheap ones, unsupported ones and expensive 
ones, where I can not say whether the expensive ones are supported :-(

It is hard to figure out what chipset several creative soundcards utilize.

At the moment, I have onboard sound (which is boring) and Soundblaster 
Audigy SE, which is NOT supported by FreeBSD 7 and OSS driver for amd64 
crashes the box - so need alternatives.

Recommandation for supported high quality soundcard FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT/AMD64

2007-02-13 Thread O. Hartmann
Months ago I was looking for a replecement sound card for my onboard 
ALC97 sound and therefore I purchased a Creative Soundblaster Audigy SE 
in hope this is supported by the snd_emu10k[x] driver as its name 
suggested. But it was an great err.
Now I'm looking for an adequate replacement for even this soundcard and 
followed several dicussions about the problematic prevention for open 
source development by Creative and other companies keeping their data 
sheets closed. I read something about envy24-based soundcards which are 
said to be as good as Creative's X-Fi type soundcards but for half of 
the price.


To make my desire short in words: Can you please recommend some envy24 
based good or better quality (not the best high-end HiFi) soundcard 
which has an opensource support, even in FreeBSD?


Here in Germany I find only brands like Creative and TerraTec with 
adequate 7.1 capable soundcards.


I would like to purchase a sound card which has native FreeBSD driver.

Thanks you for your attention and suggestions in advance,

(S)ATA performance in FBSD 6.2/7.0

2007-03-02 Thread O. Hartmann
The last days I tried to figure out why some of my lab's FreeBSD boxes 
and also mine at home seem to be outperformed by some Linux setups 
around here and I saw something interesting.


On my lab's FreeBSD 6.2/i386 box (ASUS P4P800, ICH5 with two SATA 150 
ports, two SATA 300 drives attached) I copied big files (~ 5GB) from one 
drive to another while the box didn't do anything else than copying. I 
watched the copy process via 'systat -vmstat 1' and realized, that the 
value of 'KB/t' never go byond 128 (128kb buffer limit?). But more 
frustrating, I never got beyond 33 MB/s transfer rate although 
bonni/bonni++ told me both drives are capable doing much more (~75 MB/s 
each).
At home, I use a FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT box on an ASUS 
A8N32-SLI/nForce4-SLI based box, amd64 (no 32Bit compatibility). Two 
Hitachi T7K250 250 GB/SATA II drives build up a RAID 0 (nVidia 
MediaShield), and additionally there is a SAMSUNG Spinpoitn SP2004C 
attached to the controller. bonni results in 55 MB/s for the SP2004C 
alone and gives ~ 65 - 70 MB/s for the Hitachis, each and roughly 115 
MB/s for the RAID 0. But copying from the single drive to the RAID 0 or 
from the RAID 0 to the single drive also reaches this oscure 33 MB/s 
boundary!


In the first place I thought the older i386 hardware has some 
hard-limits, but we have several boxes of the exact same hardware around 
here and a wide spread Linux and Windows utilization and on those boxes 
 equipted with more than one harddrive (PATA or SATA) the effective 
transfer rate shown up is about 50 - 65 MB/s as expected with copying a 
big 5G file from one drive to another.


The hardwrae limit is completely nonsense when it comes to the AMD64 box 
with newer hardware.


Before digging into this problem deeper with benchmarks, could anyone 
explain why FreeBSD reaches this 33 MB/s limit (sounds like UDMA 33 
defaults, but on both boxes nForce4 and ICH5 controller are recognized 
and show up with SATA300 or SATA150 capabilities, respective)? May I 
have some knobs I'm not aware of to tune disk performance?


I would appreciate any coments on that and if someone has some good 
ideas how to benchmark those subjects, please let me know.


Regards,
Oliver

Sorry for waiting so long, but weekend and a lot of work prevented me
from answering earlier.

All right, I checked on three boxes the BIOS settings and ensured no
legacy settings on any SATA device.

In general, I realized using 'dd' results in much better drive-to-drive
bandwith than doing just a 'cp'. As many times recommended herein, I
used bs=128k, but look for yourself on the results.

net.link.bridge.ipfw_arp/net.link.ipfw: filtering only with IPFW?

2007-03-16 Thread O. Hartmann

This question may sound stupid, but I would like to ask it anyway.

On my lab's and private's FreeBSD box (lab is FBSD 6.2-STABLE, at home 
7.0-CURRENT) I utilize pf() as my preferred filtering system.


What is the meaning of net.link.bridge.ipfw_arp and 
net.link.bridge.ipfw? Does it mean it can only be filtered by ipfw() or 
is this simply a global meaning that each bridged packet is injected 
into any filtering facility? I'm not very firm with MAC based filtering, 
I only know ipfw() is/was capable of doing that, but is pf() also? A 
sneak look at the manpage doesn't revela that point for me, sorry for my 
lazyness.


Thanks for your patience,
Oliver

FreeBSD 6.2/AMD64: supports TYAN Tomcat n3400B motherboard?

2006-12-13 Thread O. Hartmann

Dear Sirs.
For building a server system I would like to use the TYAN Tomcat n3400B 
motherboard (TYAN S2925G2NR).
As far as I know, this motherboard utilises the nVidia nForce 3400 
chipset which is similar, or even identical to the new nForce5XX 
chipsets introduced shortly.

The main question is: will FreeBSD 6.2/amd64 work with this board?

I need especially both NICs and the SATA-II RAID-0/Mirroring facilities.

Thank you very much for your comments.

Oliver

Xorg (nv) on nForce405/GeForce6100 based box and FreeBSD 6.2 support?

2007-01-15 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
One of my customers ordered a bunch of nVidia nForce405-based desktop 
boxes (ASROCK AM2NF6G-VSTA) and some of them  are supposed to be running 
FreeBSD 6.2.
FreeBSD 6.2 seems to have problems with the identification of the NIC 
(although I use the nve() driver), obviously neither nfe() nor nve() do 
support the built in NIC (is it different from the one used by the other 
nForce4 based motherboards or is it simply an identification issue?).


The other question regards to Xorg/X11 support. It also seems that the 
Xorg 6.9 Server's "nv" nVidia driver does not support/recognize the 
integrated chipset, but when Xserver dumps its moans about a missing 
driver I see GeForce 6100/6200 and some nForce420 chipsets supported, 
unfortunately not nForce405. Is there a solution underway?


Ubuntu Linux seems to run fine on those boxes (although I did not do 
deeper investigations because I'm not familiar with Linux and the point 
is I need to run the boxes as 64Bit only for some development purposes).


I appreciate any comments and maybe workarounds,
regards

Messy ports, how to clean them up?

2007-01-25 Thread O. Hartmann
Well,
I use portsnap and portupgrade on a regular basis and therefore I could
watch very often the rebuild of ports - a nice and neat thing of FreeBSD.

Bit sometimes I or someone else installs ports an they install
dependencies and then he/she or I decide to kill/delete a specific port,
but very often dependencies remains on the system and doing this
deletion a couple of times will end in some 'zombie' remains of ports.

Is there a way cleaning up automatically a messy ports collection? Like
portupgrade does, only the opposite way, not rebuilding/reinstalling a
rebuilt/upgraded port, looking for stale ports never used anymore by
another port?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Oliver

P.S. I'm not very familiar with the complexicity of the pkgtoolset and
ports collection, sorry.

Sorry for the noise.
Yes, fstat could possibly that I wanted it for, but is there a way to
make it look like a continious watching a process opening and closing
files? fstat -p PID gives me a snapshot of the status quo as of the
second I enter the command but that menas I could miss the right time
point. Maybe something like ptrace will be better.

Thanks a lot for the pretty fast answers!

portsnap, only for ports?

2005-08-19 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I have some questions about portsnap. The intention of portsnap seems to 
be reasonable. But I miss a similar facility updating the operating 
system! One of the major arguments using portsnap is to avoid the 
intrusion of malicous code, injected via a 'man in the middle'. Thinking 
of so called root-kits it makes more sense to me securing the updates of 
source code of the operating system also or at first place. Are there 
any plans doing so? Or alternatives? I still use CVS updating the source 
code.

Mozilla/Firefox weirdness

2005-08-22 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
Since I upgrade my box from FreeBSD-5.4 to 6.0 it seems that I run into 
some really strange Firefox/Mozilla behaviour. The phenomenon is 
described really quickly: I can not save some configurations, like using 
which type of SSL/TSL, block popups etc. I can mark the boxes, but 
whenever I call the same config window, all checkboxes are set to a 
initial value not choosen by me. The browser also does not save any configs.


I completely recompiled everything, I deinstalled both Mozilla and 
Firefox, but it is always the same behaviour. Can someone help or report 
about similar or the same problem?


One idea is that this has to do with some access rights of the user's 
profile directory.

I had the same issues on a freash 5.4 install. I had to remove all 
CFLAGS besides -pipe and -O2, then it ran like a champ.  -f options have 
always killed firefox for me.



All right, here we go ...
I moved ~/.mozilla as suggested and let firefox install a new directory. 
But that did not change anything nor it had a positive effect.


And, indeed, I 'utilize' -ffast-amth and -funroll-loops in make.conf. I 
will remove them on the i386 machine and see, whether this succeeds.


On another box, amd64 arch, the same phenomenon occured the same time I 
changed from 5.4 to 6.0. I'll report if the 'not allowed' compiler 
option caused this misbehaviour.

nForce4-SLI, AHCI and NCQ and FreeBSD 6.0

2005-09-06 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I have a little question about the popular nForce4-SLI chipset for the 
Socket 939 platform. The onboard SATA controller of the nForce4-SLI 
chipset claims to be NCQ (or SATA II) capable, but nVidia implemented 
this feature in a not-AHCI-standardised way, but as an own solution. My 
question is: Is the FBSD 6.X driver for the nForce4-SLI chipset capable 
of using NCQ (as I know, the driver has to enable NCQ and it's not done 
automatically by the harddrive-controller interaction).


Thanks in advance,
Oliver

Weird print behaviour in Firefox/Mozilla/Thunderbird and FreeBSD 6.0

2005-09-06 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.

I realize a weird printing behaviour of Thunderbird/Mozilla/Firefox. 
Whenever I try to print a page the software gets stuck and it takes 
several minutes before it come back to ask me for the printer. After 
clicking on the print button it takes again several minutes before the 
job gets printed.


Watching the process via 'top' I can not recognize anything unspecific, 
but the process (either one of the above mentioned) remains in 'kserel'.


I realized this strange behaviour on another machine which is not 
attached to a network nor has a printer, but viewing the print-preface 
results in the same stuck behaviour.


Hope it is a simple, stupid misconfiguration or anything similar, but 
two different configs and environments produce the same "stuckness". 
printing on the specific machines is no problem (using lpd, not CUPS!).


In the past I had problems with CUPS, which gets partially installed 
when using GIMP print. How can I investigate whether the problem is 
related to a conflict between the traditional BSD lpd (which is used on 
all of our boexs) and CUPS?


Thanks,
Oliver

Re: nForce4-SLI, AHCI and NCQ and FreeBSD 6.0

2005-09-08 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
Are you really sure the onboard Sil SATA controller supports SATA II? 
When I studied the handbook of both motherboards, the A8N-SLI Deluxe and 
A8N-SLI Premium I found both motherboards are idetically equipted with 
the *not* SATA II capable SilI3114 SATA controller. By the way, as I 
know, the second SATA controller is attached via the PCI32 bus, not via 
PCIe! That means (in my opinion) there is no benefit using this 
controller. It is more a marketing GAG than a serious add-on.


RAID5 performance of ICH7R and SilI is said to be very, very poor (about 
10 MB/s read/write performance), so what benefit I do have using this 
controller with it's senseless 'capabilities' and non-PCIe attachment?


This is only a thought based on my personal available informations and 
maybe wrong ...

I am using the A8N-SLI Premium. I am using the Silicon Image controller 
instead of the nForce4 controller because it specifically said SATAII 
and said it supported RAID5 (whereas the nForce did not support RAID5). 
However, on boot it recognizes it as SATA150 (which should be SATA300).

port builds: selective compiler options for each port?

2005-09-14 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.

I run into trouble on building some ports in FreeBSD 6.0. Those troubles 
are not the same on each portbuild, sometimes it is a compiler option, 
sometimes it is an option for the relocation of data directories and so on.


For instance I tried building Open Office 1.1.5 without JAVA support. On 
my lab's box I use CPUTYPE=prescott and everything runs well and smoth 
but not OO due the fact it gets compiled via an older GCC and this 
compiler also gathers its options from /etc/make.conf as the system 
compiler does.


For a simple and single portbuild changing /etc/make.conf or applying 
the appropriate make options seems not to be a high cost effort, but 
doing so via an automated portupgrade let me run into some trouble! The 
most 'popular' ports for those troubles are OO and MySQL. Since one of 
the prior port changes to MySQL, the variable for the database directory 
vanished and got hardwired to /var/db/database but on our server 
infrastructure we use another path for the databases. But MySQL is 
another type of weirdness and senseless changes.


My question is: Is there a way to obtain each port's buildprocess its 
own environment? It seems that there is no standard and consistent 
concept of how flags should be named (WITH_OPTIMIZED_CFLAGS=yes on the 
other hand, BUILD_OPTIMIZED=yes on the other).


Thank you,
Oliver

Regaurdless of what the motherboard manufacturer says a SilI3114 SATA 
controller is SATA spec 1.0.


Yes , that is exactly what I got from http://www.siliconimage.com/.

Every report I read about ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe/Premium gave the same 
technical specs: the second RAID5-capable SATA chip (SilI3114) is 
attached to the 32Bit bus (*NOT* PCIe). Also, there is *NO* 64Bit bus on 
any of the mentioned mainboards!


And, by the way, the nForce4-SLI MCP is capable of NCQ, but the 
capability is *NOT* AHCI conform, so it seemes to me that we need a 
special treatment using this add on - but we all know how restricted 
nVidia is offering internal details about their chipset to open source 
projects like FreeBSD.


This is what I found out searching the net, some articles and watching 
this list.

Continous JAVA build error on AMD64 and i386

2005-09-29 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I reported earlier in this list about trouble in building and installing 
  JAVA on both AMD64 and i386 architectures.
In the meanwhile, I can compile ports/jdk15 on AMD64/FreeBSD-6.0, but 
jdk15 does not include or have the desired plugin for Mozilla/FireFox, 
so I tried compiling ports/jdk14. I got every recent and needed file for 
this compilation, but although I compiled "LINUX32" __and__ COMPAT32 
options into kernel (also procfs and linprocfs and everything is 
installed and working correct), I receive the the message: this port is 
for i386 and you are running amd64. That's really nice.


So I tried compiling jdk14 and jdk15 on an DELL Optiplex 280 running 
FreeBSD 6.0 (most recent buildworld as with the amd64 box!). I never had 
success compiling either jdk14 or jdk15, both end up in the attached 
error of mising BOOTDIR environment.

Examining the log output shows some curiuous portions:

   JAVAWS_BOOTDIR = /usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.4.2
-->BOOTSTRAP J2SDK VERSION: Segmentation fault
   OUTPUTDIR = /usr/ports/java/jdk14/work/control/build/bsd-i586

This seems to be a fault in the Linux environment. I tried either 
Linuxulator as loadable kernel module or fixed compiled into kernel, 
with no success.


Deinstalling everything belonging to Linux and doing a fresh install via 
dependencies while installing jdk14/jdk15 doesn't result in any suitable 
 situation, I reiceive always the same error.


What's up?

Re: How to properly mount a DVD-R/W drive and how to use it from the command line?

2005-10-06 Thread O. Hartmann

Olaf Greve wrote:

Hi,

This'll surely be a really novice question, but I'd like to get it right 
in one go, and RTFM-ing using Google somehow didn't produce uniform 
enough results for my likings. :)


The situation: I just installed FreeBSD 5.4-Release AMD64 on my new 
machine (though the question is most likely not specific to the AMD64 
version, I guess), and upon installation time the machine had a DVD-ROM 
/ CD-RW drive. Yesterday I received a new drive, being a DVD-RW drive, 
and I replaced the previous one with the new one. O.k., no problem so 
far, and the BIOS seems to properly identify the drive.


When booting the machine, the drive is -I think- identified as "DVDW" as 
/dev/acd0, and the mountpoint it (re!)uses is /cdrom.


Now, this is where the issue lies. When putting a CD-ROM in the drive, 
and trying to access it through the /cdrom mountpoint I get an empty 
directory listing (not correct) and when manually trying to do the 
following:

mount /dev/acd0 /cdrom
I get the error (on all CD-ROMs):
mount: /dev/acd0 on /cdrom: incorrect super block

Now, the entry in /etc/fstab for this device is set to:
/dev/acd0 /cdromcd9660ro,noauto00

Which is fine for a CD-ROM drive.

However: what should the proper settings be for a DVD-RW drive? Surely 
at least the 'ro' flag is incorrect, but is that all?
Also: are there other locations where I should tell FBSD (and if so: 
how) about the presence of the new drive?


Finally: I do not intent to run X on the machine, as it'll be a 
webserver only (well, incl. DB stuff etc.), and the drive is intended 
for being used to make remote back-ups on DVD-RW (yes: someone will 
physically swap the DVDs when necessary ;) ). What I'd like to know is 
what the easiest/best ways are to do so from the command-line. Does 
anyone have some scripts for this? Or perhaps some pointers to a good 
(preferrably free) program or tutorial?


As always: thanks in advance for your time, and your answers. :)

Cheers,
Olafo


Hello Olafo.
As I can see, Uli replied the right answer, you forgot to specify the 
filesystem type. but if there is a proper fstab-entry, like this:


/dev/acd0   /cdrom  cd9660  ro,noauto   0 0

then it should work properly by typing

mount /cdrom

In my case, I utilize amd(8) to automatically mount a disk. This ma be 
an option to you.
I also do backups on DVD+RW, but this is a more 'tricky' job if it is 
done the automated way.
One possible way is to use 'growisofs' (found in 
ports/sysutils/dvd+rw-tools). But this tool needs 'root' or some 
workarounds when used via 'sudo' (you can not use growisofs via sudo the 
direct way!).


Another way is to use 'burncd(8)', but it only works with dvd+rw for me 
and burncd is definitely broken for some CD-R/CD-RW drives/formats 
(burncd isn't capable closing the session properly, so for CD-R/CD-RW 
you should use 'cdrecord' from ports/sysutils/cdrtools). For me, burncd 
operates on my NEC DVD+RW drive properly, but you need ISO Images to 
burn on DVD+RW/DVD+R (growisofs uses a built-in 'dd' to burn 'on the 
fly', which is preferable in some ways).
An Advantage of burncd(8) is: it works with sudo(8) and it is part of 
the FreeBSd OS. Disadvantage: it seems to have poor maintenance and does 
not work properly with some drives. Assuming you have made a ISO image 
with mkisofs (also found in ports/sysutils/cdrtools), you can burn as a 
normal user via sudo via:


sudo burncd -f /dev/acd0 dvdrw /path/to/datafile

Hope this helped a little bit. There are sophisticated ways of doing 
backups via DVD-+RW/DVD-+R with shell scripts, so use the search 
function of the mailing lists.

Does the linux JDK work?  Have you tried compiling java source and 
running java classes with it?  Did you follow the directions in 
/usr/ports/java/linux-sun-jdk14/pkg-message to enable the linux procfs?


Micah


The Linux SDK is the one that crashes (getting signal 11 from java as 
reported and this is the linux SDK). It is the Linux java that isn't 
capable booting the build process.

FireFox/Mozilla and CUPS/LPD weirdness

Faulty DNS configurations were suspected in the first line but I can

I figured out that bot Mozilla and Firefox try to print via CUPS (via 
sockstat, firefox process trys to connect to 127.0.0.1:631).


On our servers w e do not use CUPS, still LPD. How to configure 
Firefox/Mozilla using LPD instead of CUPS? How to avoid this blind

In the Mozilla Print menu, select Print To: Printer, Printer:

for several years without problems - without CUPS. The problem seems to 
a null-set


print.printer_list

Seting this string to "lp some-other-lp-name" solves the problem, 
firefox/mozilla prints via lpd as expected and not connecting a mutual 
cups service as recognized.

since I upgrade my box with the lates FreeBSD 7.0-CUR/AMD64 and gcc 4.2, 
I do not have access to ports via portsnap anymore. Portsnap stops 
running with this error:


# portsnap fetch update
Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 3 mirrors found.

No mirrors remaining, giving up.

I removed everything what's in /var/db/portsnap/, but this doesn't help, 
it seems a checksum isn't calculated correctly. Alternatively I used cvsup.


Is there anything wrong? I remember myself of issues with OpenSSL and 
gcc 4.2, so due to the calculation of the checksum this might cause the

burncd in FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE

2005-04-21 Thread O. Hartmann
Hello.
Before sending a PR, I would like to ask about the state of burncd. It 
is not working properly for me.
My hardware is a AMD64 based system with A NEC ND 3500AG/2.19 and a DELL 
Optiplex 280/i386
with a HP 1100 (both drives DVD+-RW).

Burning DVD+RW is ok on formated media. Formatting DVD+RW is never 
stopping, seems to get stuck
on both platforms, but when hitting Ctr-C and stopping the wicked up 
process (burncd -v -f /dev/acd0 format dvd+rw),
the media seems to be already formatted and useable.

Burning CD-RW and CD-Rs with burncd does not work, the media get not 
'closed' or 'fixate'd at the end although I explicitely
try to fixate ist. Instead, I use 'cdrecord' to fixate the media and 
after that they work.

In the mentioned DELL system, the DVD+-RW got changed due to a hardware 
failure and is now another model. So I'm really sure this is not a 
hardware problem but a software problem. I know burncd lacks in several

wonder if others do not have similar problems. cdrecord is an 
alternative, but burncd is due to its easier 'sudo' handling in 
multiuser environments the more desired utility.

Thanks for your hints, comments and suggestions.

getting handbooks via cvsup?

2005-04-24 Thread O. Hartmann
I'm looking for a way getting various handbook's sources via cvsup,  
common handbook English/German and  some developers handbooks 
(developer, porter).

On each nstallation CD I can find various handbook types (PS, PDF, 
HTML). My intention is having a local webserver at the department 
keeping track on HTML and PS generated handbooks automaticaly  and 
sucking in the changes via cvsup. I can remember there is a way but I 
lost the glue where to look for.

Thanks in advance,

burncd in FBSD 5.4-STABLE does not fixate

2005-05-01 Thread O. Hartmann
Hello.
Before doing again a send-pr, I would like to spread out that burncd 
still has problems fixating CD-RW/CD-R. Burning CD-R and/or CD-RW with 
command line

#hello: burncd -v -f /dev/acd1 data foo.iso fixate
leaves the CD-R or CD-RW unfixated and I need to fixate the CD-R or 
CD-RW with

#hello: cdrecord -v -fix dev=0,1,0
which remains in a working disk.
Any suggestions how to track down the problem or is it me doing wrong 
things?

Creating a specific/own installation set

2005-05-17 Thread O. Hartmann
Hello out here.
My intention is as follows. I would like to create an installation DVD 
for FreeBSD/AMD64 with a specific set of packages. I would like to do so 
 because I have a set of AMD64 machines which are not connected to a 
fast  internet wire (some due to security reasons, others in private use 
and others in labs without a network facility).
The idea is to have recent FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE/AMD64 DVD with some 
specific amd64 built packages which are common for a set of machine on 
one DVD.

Thanks,

SATA HD power management disabling

2005-06-05 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
On one of my workstaions (AMD64, FBSD 5.4-STABLE) I utilize two SATA 
drives, one is a 200GB Maxtor (2B200MO, SATA I), the other a Samsung 
200GB (SP2004C, SATA II).


Using atacontrol cap  
shows me on both devices

power management   yes  yes
advanced power management  yes  no
automatic acoustic management  yes  yes

Is there a way to disable automatic acoustic management and power 
management forever? Mainboard is a ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe, BIOS 1010 (most 
recent), Operation System FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE as most recent cvsupdated 
(I think this doesn't matter, but ...).


I did not find any knob in the BIOS disbaling acoustic and power 
management for the attached harddrives, so I'm a little bit confused.


Especially the Samsung drives seems to need about 1 or 2 seconds 
'starting' when accessed after a while of inactivity, means when showing 
a directory content, it takes a while before the informations show up.


Thanks,
Oliver

PAM and OpenLDAP: Login requires always existence of SSH pubkey, why?

2007-12-16 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.

I use FreeBSD 7.0-BETA on servral boxes with different architectures 
(i386/amd64). Users within our network have to autheticate against an 
OpenLDAP Server via PAM. I have the annoying problem that every user 
getting autenticated needs a public key and the passphrase set in the 
ssh public key is the passphrase that authenticates the user - not the 
passphrase/password set in the OpenLDAP DIT for that specific user! My 
sshd_config looks quite common to the default sshd_conf offered with the 
FreeBSD sources, exept three changes:



=
# Change to yes to enable built-in password authentication.
PasswordAuthentication yes
#PermitEmptyPasswords no

# Change to no to disable PAM authentication
ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes

# Kerberos options
#KerberosAuthentication no
#KerberosOrLocalPasswd yes
#KerberosTicketCleanup yes
#KerberosGetAFSToken no

# GSSAPI options
#GSSAPIAuthentication yes
#GSSAPICleanupCredentials yes

# Set this to 'no' to disable PAM authentication, account processing,
# and session processing. If this is enabled, PAM authentication will
# be allowed through the ChallengeResponseAuthentication and
# PasswordAuthentication.  Depending on your PAM configuration,
# PAM authentication via ChallengeResponseAuthentication may bypass
# the setting of "PermitRootLogin without-password".
# If you just want the PAM account and session checks to run without
# PAM authentication, then enable this but set PasswordAuthentication
# and ChallengeResponseAuthentication to 'no'.
UsePAM yes

=

Setting
PasswordAuthentication no
and
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no

to force PAM doing authetication, accounting and session via LDAP 
results in the incapability of logging in for any user (error: 
pubkey/password).


In /etc/pam.d/sshd and system I have both in auth and session 
pam_sshd.so enabled. Without that it doesn't matter what is configured 
in sshd_conf, users never can login as LDAP would never check passphrase.


What is wrong? Why is PAM forcing ssh into doing authentication and 
accounting and session management by default although I configured PAM 
to do so?


Can anybody help?

Problems with OpenOffice 2.3.1 on FreeBSD

2008-01-01 Thread O. Hartmann
I use OpenOffice 2.3.1 on several hardwareplatforms running FreeBSD 
7.0-PRE/AMD64 and since I upgraded OpenOffice from OO 2.3.0 to 2.3.1 I 
have massive problems, rendering OO unusuable! Before doing a PR I would 
like to aks whethere there is a solution out.
Whenever I try to save a document in OO writer, OO gets stuck and I have 
to kill it. The document gets saved, but I never can load it again 
without rendering OO unusuable. Opening M$ Word docs or OO docs doesn't 
matter.
This breakage is identical on all of my systems I run OO 2.3.1 on, they 
all have in common running FreeBSD 7.0-PRE, being 64 Bit, having 
diablo-1.5-JDK installed. This behaviour even occurs on a freshly 
installed box.


Any ideas? This is a serious situation to me, due to the need of a 
properly working OO :-(

No, you need to install the gfortran port.  This is presumably 
documented in the release notes.


Kris

Thank you for the answer.

Wouldn't it be more convenient for all having both the C/C++ and Fortran 
compiler aboard the operating system since the compiler suite is a whole 
piece?


Well, no offense, but this remembers me on the time when SUN split the 
C-Compiler apart the OS or it looks like the behaviour of many Linux 
distribution even splitting header files apart from the OS. Hope FreeBSD 
will not tend to take apart header files and even the  C compiler ...

OpenLDAP 2.4.8 and FreeBSD/nss_ldap ==>> not working?

2008-02-25 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello,
apart from the fact that OpenLDAP 2.4.8 in conjunction with DB 4.6 ist 
absolutely BETA as mentioned in their docu, nevertheless I woul like 
asking about a problem I discovered.


Bevor upgrading (I did becauso of the syncrepl-facility) I stopped slapd 
and dumped its DB via "slapcat -l outfile.ldif" into a secure dumpfile. 
Then I removed the old DB-files in the database directory. Then I used 
"slapadd -l outfile.ldif" for restoring the database and after I 
recompiled everthing dependend on the ldap-client libs (nss_ldap, 
pam_ldap, pam_mkhomedir, sudo, postgresql), I was able to safely restart 
slapd. Everything seemed to work on a glimpse, but something was wrong.
I've group-objects (ou=groups, POSIX groups) in my DIT with attribute 
"memberUID=". With OpenLDAP 2.3.41 'id' shows up a user's UID, GID 
and membership in additional groups, but with LDAP 2.4.8, only the UID 
and GID is shown:


uid=2002(ohartmann) gid=2002(ohartmann) groups=2002(ohartmann) (OpenLDAP 
2.4.8)


but it should be

uid=2002(ohartmann) gid=2002(ohartmann) 
groups=2002(ohartmann),512(Domain Admins),513(Domain 
Users),544(Administrators),2045(development) (2.3.41)


Either something in the schemata has changed or something is wrong. I 
tried to find out via the doku at OpenLDAP.ORG, but can't find any 
revealing infos.


Can anybody help?

OpenOffice 2.3 BASE, PostgreSQL 8.3 with JDB/ODBC: NO SSL possible?

2008-02-27 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello,
I got a problem in connecting a BASE Client (OpenOffice DB Client) to a 
remote, SSL-secured PostgreSQL server. Both, client and server, running 
FreeBSD 7.0, but this does only matter for the OO client side. With OO 
under Windows it is either with ODBC or JDBC possible to connect via SSL 
to the DB server, but this is not for OO under FreeBSD using JDBC/ODBC 
as recently compiled from the ports.


I searched the net and found that because postges-odbc is compiled 
against libpg.so on FreeBSD/UNIX and SSL connectivity is therein, it 
should be up to the ODBC driver how to connect , but I did not find any 
explanation what to switch on or of in odbc.ini.


Even with JDBC (postgres-jdbc), where SSL should be a standard with JDK 
1.5, I can not find any information about a knob or even any help on 
that so I guess the specific driver, either JDBC or ODBC should be 
capable of negotiating the connection type.


This works without problems with Windows clients running OO or M$-Office 
using JDBC or ODBC from www.potgresql.org.


Can anybody help or give a hint?

immense delayed write to file system (ZFS and UFS2), performance issues

2010-01-18 Thread O. Hartmann
I realise a strange behaviour of several FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64 boxes. 
All boxes have the most recent STABLE. One box is a UP system, two 
others SMP boxes, one with a Q6600 4-core, another XEON with 2x 4-cores 
(Dell Poweredge III).


Symptome: All boxes have ZFS and UFS2 filesystems. Since two weeks or 
so, sometimes the I/O performance drops massively when doing 'svn 
update', 'make world' or even 'make kernel'. It doesn't matter what 
memory and how many cpu the box has, it get stuck for several seconds 
and freezing. On the UP box, this is sometimes for 10 - 20 seconds.
A very interesting phenomenon is the massively delayed file writing on 
ZFS filesystems I realise. Editing a file in 'vi' running on one XTerm 
and having in another Xterminal my shell for compiling this file, it 
takes sometimes up to 20 seconds to get the file updated after it has 
been written. It's like having an old, slow NFS connection with long 
cache delays.
These massively delayed file transactions are not necessarely under 
heavy load, sometimes they occur in a relaxed situation. They seem to 
occur much more often on the UP box than on the SMP boxes, but this 
strange phenomenon also occur on the Dell Poweredge II, which has 16GB 
RAM and summa summarum 16 cores. This phenomenon does occur on ZFS- and 
UFS2 filesystems as well. It is hardly reproducable.


Is there any known issue?

with I/O in Linux-land at least, causing massive stalls and iowait

unload after parking. I have two of these disks sitting on my desk now

The disks in question are indeed WD on one box, but they are all Caviar 
Black and they performed well months ago with the very same hardware and 
an earlier FreeBSD 8 version.
The other boxes in questions do have a set of mixed type, Seagate, WD, 
Samsung (mostly Samsung F1 types). We do not use 'Green' drives, due to 
every box acts as a server and we found green-disks, even from WD, too slow.

ZFS is copy on write, therefore to optimize the write performance it delays
writes for a long as possible, upto a set maximum time. It will then flush
to the disks. How long this time is depends on how much free ram you have
available. Assuming processes are eating up all your ram I would imagine you
are hitting the max limit. I'm not sure exactly what its set to on bsd but I
know the default on opensolaris is 30s. I think this explains your delayed
writes.

Not sure what will cause the lock ups though.

This could end in a bad situation, where one process writes a files, say 
with some arbitrary stuff and another successing process is intended to 
read this file. even if the processes are run serial, those 'delays' 
could break the chain! The delay situation in a development environment 
is harsh, but in other circumstances it could develop very bad.


I see this strange behaviour now for several weeks, something essential 
has changed in the code, I guess.
On UP boxes the situation is worse sometimes, on SMp boxes with lots of 
RAM ( 8 and 16 GB and 4 or 8 CPU cores) it is still bad. I have a server 
that acts as a 'rsync' backup system gathering data from satellite 
servers from time to time. Since this problem of slowness occured, this 
4-core 8 gig RAM box crawls for minutes. Even when X11 is disabled 
working on console is 'bumpy': terminal out slows down, mouse pointer 
jumps etc.As I wrote, the same on a 8 core/16 gig box, but not that harsh.

PCIe audio cards: what is tob be preferred with FreeBSD 8.0/9-CURRENT?

2010-01-24 Thread O. Hartmann

Well,
At this very moment I utilise a M-Audio 5.1 PCI-audio board with which 
I'm really satisfied. My next box doesn't have PCI slots at all (ASUS 
P6T6-WS Revolution) and due to the fact I'm using Windows 7 sometimes 
for recreational gaming, I'd like to have a moderate expensive audio 
board with the workstation which is supported by FreeBSD 8/9. In the 
past - means two or three ywars ago, I had problems with Soundblaster 
PCIe boards, so I was recommended avoiding those and choosing the more 
elabotrated M-Audio cards for the PCI bus.
At this moment, I look for the Soundblaster X-Fi range of PCIe cards, 
but I'm not sure whether they are supported by FreeBSd 8/9. Any suggestions?


Regards,
Oliver

poolkit and docbook I'm incapable to solve.

Does anybody has any hint or tip? Please email me in CC.

It's possible to get an adapter that plugs into a PCIe slot and
provides a PCI slot, which might enable you to continue using
your current card.  I've never actually seen one, so don't know
about the mechanics; it could turn out that it can only be used
by leaving the cover off of the box :(

I gues this is he worst scenario I can imagine.

I'd ike to spend some money on a new audio card adapted for PCIe, but it 
should have support both in FreeBSD and Windows. For mplayer/vlc and so 
forth my M-Audio audio quality was great. This level should be kept in 
FreeBSD.

2010-02-06 Thread O. Hartmann
Since yesterday's portsnape and attempt updating my ports, ALL FreeBSD 
boxes (running FreeBSD 8.0/amd64) fail to update ports via 'portmaster 
-av' at the same point with the following error.


It seems that that port jpeg-8 has been updated and now offering 
libjpeg.so.11 instead of the desired old libjpeg.so.10, so I guess 
everything depending on port jpeg-8 needs to be rebuild - but 
ports/UPDATE does not reflect this.

Check, that there is no memcache.h somewhere in your include paths, in

Also, try last update if the port.

With best regards,

Hello,
thanks for responding. Indeed, their was a port installed, needed by 
www/lighttpd. After temporarily deinstalling libmemcache, the 
installation of the port went all right. I figured that it would be 
better leaving lighttpd's option 'with memcache' untouched and switched 
off to be on the secure side.

NFSv4: mount -t nsf4 not the same as mount_newnfs?

2010-02-08 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello.
I set up a NFSv4 server located on a FreeBSD 8.0/amd64 box (most recent 
world). It seems I successfully set up the NFSv4 service and this 
results in a successful mount of a file system by another FreeBSD 8.0 
box. But their is a weirdnes I do not understand.


Mounting the filessystem via

mount_newnfs host:/path /path

works fine, but not

mount -t nfs4 host:/path /path.

When doing the latter, I always get the error

: Operation not supported by device

What I'm doing wrong?

Regards,
Oliver

P.S.

Kernel has both NFSSERVER and NFSD, NFSCL and NFSCLIENT, /etc/rc.conf has

nfsv4_server_enable="YES"
nfsuserd_enable="YES"
rpcbind_enable="YES"
on serverside,

on clientside, it's

nfsuserd_enable="YES"
nfscbd_enable="YES"

net/samba34: after upgrade from samba33 -> samba34 no client can connect to samba34-server anymore!

2010-02-08 Thread O. Hartmann
After upgrading from samba33 to samba34 from most recent ports, no 
Windows_XP and Windows_7 client is capable of connecting to the samba 
server anymore! I use the same config as before, did a testparm (it 
shows this ahaead:

Load smb config files from /usr/local/etc/smb.conf
max_open_files: sysctl_max (11095) below minimum Windows limit (16384)
rlimit_max: rlimit_max (11095) below minimum Windows limit (16384)
).
I have no idea what's going wrong. The authentication is done via LDAP. 
Using samab33 works without problem.

Oh, and you should set:
sysctl vfs.newnfs.locallocks_enable=0
in the server, since I haven't fixed the local locking yet. (This implies
that apps/daemons running locally on the server won't see byte range
locks performed by NFSv4 clients.) However, byte range locking between
NFSv4 clients should work ok.

Re: NFSv4: mount -t nsf4 not the same as mount_newnfs?

The mount command can be either:

mount -t newnfs -o nfsv4 host:/path /path

Have fun with it, rick

I tried the above and it works. But it seems, that only UFS2 filesystems

On server side, /etc/exports looks like

/backup  #IPv4#

Is there still an issue with ZFS?

Add to /boot/loader.conf:

Reboot.

As for the rlimit sysctl I have no clue which sysctl configures that 
but seeing as they are of both the same value I would assume that it 
might be auto configured by maxfiles.


Best of luck and let us know how it turned out.

Yea, I'd only use "mount -t newnfs" if for some reason you want to 
test/use the experimental client for nfsv2,3 instead of the regular one.

For ZFS, everything from the "root" specified by the "V4:" line
must be exported at this time. So, if "/" isn't exported, the
above won't work for ZFS. You can either export "/" or move the
NFSv4 root down to backup. For example, you could try:

V4:/backup -sec=sys:krb5
/backup

(assuming /backup is the ZFS volume)

and then a mount like:
mount -t nfs -o nfsv4 server:/ /mnt
will mount /backup on /mnt

rick
ps: ZFS also has its own export stuff, but it is my understanding that
putting a line in /etc/exports is sufficient. I've never used ZFS,
so others will know more than I.

Well, I guess I havn't uderstood everything of NFSv4. The 'concept' of 
the 'root' is new to me, maybe there are some deeper explanation of the 
purpose? Are there supposed to be more than one 'root' enries or only one?


At this very moment mounting seems to work, but I always get a 
'permission denied' error on every ZFS exported filesystem. Doing the 
same with UFS2 filesystems, everything works as expected.


Is there a way to inspect the exports and mounts for the used 
NFS-protocol? When issuing 'mount', the 'backup' mount is repoted to be 
'newnfs', I assume this reflects NFSv4 being used, now I need to figure 
out what's going wrong with the ZFS export. NFS export of the ZFS 
filesystem is enabled, but as far as I know, this feature is not used in 
FreeBSD since ZFS in FreeBSD lacks of the capabilities of autonomously 
exporting its via NFS - well, I'm not an expert in this matter.


Thanks a lot,

Yes, I did, but the problem went away, when I removed all old

How to set LD_PATH elegant?

2010-03-19 Thread O. Hartmann

I'm a little bit new to setting library paths, so sorry for the noise.

I install some packages and libraries apart the FreeBSD package/ports 
system and need

to setup the search path for shared libraries the proper way.

At this very moment I 'hardcode' this additional search path by setting

ldconfig_paths=

in /etc/rc.conf,


but since this is a 'system related' location I'm looking for a proper 
and clean method setting this search path
via environment variable and/or some /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.add stuff or 
similar.


I appreciate any hint.

OpenOffice 3.2 fails to build on FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64

2010-03-23 Thread O. Hartmann
I have trouble building/upgrading OpenOffice 3.2 on a SMP box running 
FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64. Whenever I try to portmaster/portupgrade an 
existing installation of OpenOffice 3.1.1 the update ends up in the 
error below.


On another box, also running FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64, but UP and much 
less memory (2GB, the first one comes with 8GB RAM) I get the same error.


Any suggestions to fix this without deinstalling OpenOffice 3.1.1 (I 
need OO, so deinstallinmg a running verison is inappropriate)?

Oliver

You can use `pkg_create -b name_of_port-with_version` to create a 
binary backup.  If you can't get 3.2 installed, you just run pkg_add 
on the resulting tbz and you're back in business.


I do this whenever I upgrade OO, Firefox, Thunderbird, or anything

Just for the record: deleting OO 3.1.1 via pkg_delete and trying to

Firefox 3.6.X and Thunderbird 3.0.X crashing with Radeon graphics on FBSD 8.0-STABLE SMP/sm64 box

2010-03-24 Thread O. Hartmann
Since the introduction of Thunderbird 3.0 and Firefox 3.6 I see 
spontanous crashes/coredumps of both thunderbird and firefox. Interingly 
Firefox 3.5.X works well on he same platform.


The platform is a FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64 (r205536: Tue Mar 23 22:19:04 
CET 2010), SMP box with 8GB of RAM, QuadCore Intel Q6600 on a P35-based 
motherboard.


Thunderbird 3 crashes rarely compared to Firefox 3. The longer the 
application thunderbird runs, the higher the likelyhood the app crashes 
and vanishes. Sometimes this happens immediately after starting 
thunderbird, sometimes it takes its few minutes or half an hour.


Firefox 3 is sensitive to its pull-down menus or requester showing up in 
some situations. I can provoke a crash by clicking onto a pull-down-menu 
in firefox 3, it immediately dumps a core.


Well, I wouldn't write s cross-posting if I would be sure this behaviour 
is due to some oddities in my installation, but since this odd behaviour 
occured both on Firefox 3.6 and Thunderbird 3 in several situations and 
with several tries to get a workaround, I feel desperately lost.


What I did so far:

- Recompiling EVERY port on my box (four times in a row to make sure 
everything is right, its a pain with nearly 950 ports).
- Deinstalling both Firefox 3 and Thunderbird 3 and installing the 
binary packages from FreeBSD.ORG



I have a private UP box, running the same OS FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64 on 
a single core Athlon 3500+ with only 2GB of RAM. There I use both 
Thunderbird 3.0.3 and Firefox 3.6.2 without any problem.


I suspect the X11 server or some part of the accelerator stuff 
triggering the crashes. On the both machines,


WITHOUT_NOUVEAU = YES

is defined. On the UP box at home, I utilise a HD4830 graphics 
accelerator with DR enabled. The lab's box have had
both HD4670 and now HD4770 accelerators, both do not work properly with 
the state-of-the-art drivers supported by the official pots collection. 
HD4670 never got to work since the new RadeonHD driver 1.3 was 
introduced (prior to that it worked), the new HD4770 works with 
explicitely disabling DRI and crashes whenever I leave a session (quit 
windowmaker). Well, this is another story, but I suspect the Radeon 
driver infrastructure causing the problems - but I'm not sure.


I use perl-threaded 5.10, but I guess this is not a problem since the 
problems occur whether I have threaded perl or not.


As I said, I feel like a dead man in the water ...

Oliver

CET 2010), SMP box with 8GB of RAM, QuadCore Intel Q6600 on a P35-based
motherboard.

Thunderbird 3 crashes rarely compared to Firefox 3. The longer the
application thunderbird runs, the higher the likelyhood the app crashes
and vanishes. Sometimes this happens immediately after starting
thunderbird, sometimes it takes its few minutes or half an hour.

Firefox 3 is sensitive to its pull-down menus or requester showing up in
some situations. I can provoke a crash by clicking onto a pull-down-menu
in firefox 3, it immediately dumps a core.



If you suspect the graphics card's driver is at fault then I would try
linux-opera or even linux-firefox and see whether it also dies when you
use a drop-down menu.

Another possibility would be to set hw.physmem to say 3G or 4G in
loader.conf and see whether that affects thunderbird/firefox.  Who
knows, there may some weird problem caused by all that memory?  That
would a fairly quick and cheap way to test this.

You're right, I'll test this as soon as I'm back in my lab.

LSI MegaRAID SAS 9211-8i on FreeBSD 8/9?

2010-04-09 Thread O. Hartmann
I'd like to build a new Workstation based on Intels 'Gulftown' for some 
numerical modelling purposes. Since I realised that on our Dell 
Poweredge Server with built-in Fusion MPT RAID/JBOD controller even 
attached SATA 3 GB hard disks seem to be 'faster' than on most Intel 
ICH9/ICH10 machines we also utilise with FreeBSD 8/amd64, I'd like to 
have a replacement SAS 2.0 controller like the LSI MegaRAID SAS 9211-8. 
I do not know much about this controller. I don't want to wait for 
native SATA 6Gb on Intel chipsets since this is announce for next year 
and I feel better being 'back to the roots' with SCSI/SAS 2 on FreeBSD.


Are there any contraints on this above mentioned LSI SAS 2.0 controller 
execpt lacking RAID 5/6 level (it should be an replacement for the ICH10 
so far for 7 or 8 hard disks/SSDs)?


Any comment would be appreciated (please set CC to my email since I do 
not subscribe the questions-list).


Thanks in advance,

php5: php5-zip/php5-filter fail to upgrade after the portupdate of php5

2010-04-15 Thread O. Hartmann

Both with php5-filter and php5-zip I run into trouble.

After php5 got updated (I followed steps located in ports/UPDATING, but 
I guess I  missed something) I can not upgrade the packages


php5-zip
php5-filter

Both report an error in /usr/local/include/php/ext/pcre/php_pcre.h.

I tried to move the above php_pcre.h to php_pcre.h.off with the success 
being unable to build anything. Reinstalling of ports pcre, phph5.5.X.X

didn't result in success.

What to do? Is there a remnant/old file/header out there?


Thanks for the help.

Regards,

O. Hartmann

resizing xterminal while in vi-session forces vi to coredump

2010-04-28 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello,

vi coredumps if one is resizing the xterm within the vi session runs. OS 
is FreeBSD 8.0-STABLE/amd64 r207308: Wed Apr 28 09:10:03 CEST 2010, 
ports are most recent, X11 has been recompiled in favor of 
WITHOUT_NOUVEAU=YES


Kernel also utilises
options TEKEN_UTF8
options TEKEN_XTERM

but I think this is for console only.

Should I file a PR?

Thanks for your patience,

O. Hartmann

xset/xterm: since update from 1.4 -> 1.5 not able to disable beeping via 'xset -b' or 'xset b off'

2010-05-10 Thread O. Hartmann
Since the X11-update from libraries and applications 1.4 -> 1.5 the 
xterminal keyboard beeping, disabled by 'xset -b' or 'xset b off' 
doesn't work. In xterm, I get beeping although I disabled beeping via 
the above mentioned xset command.

OT: XEON W3550?

2009-06-09 Thread O. Hartmann
Maybe some of you have already heard about Intels product change and 
early EOL of various newly introduced Core-i7 CPUs like i7-940 and 
i7-965. I was wondering if Intel isn't also changing XEON products to 
adjust clock speed and replace XEON W3540 with XEON W3550 and XEON W3570 
with, say, XEON W3580. Some rumors have it that those XEON CPUs are 
underway. Well, I want to build a single-socket-server with this XEON 
CPU type, so due to Intels 'closed' politics maybe one of yours does 
wants to share some secrets.


Thanks in advance.

Lighttpd: (mod_fastcgi.c.1742) connect failed: Connection refused on unix:/tmp/lighttpd-fastcgi-php.socket

2009-09-03 Thread O. Hartmann
I deleted accidentally /usr/local/lib on a server but I was able to 
reinstall most of the software we need manually.


After installing php5, several php5-XXX add ons and lighttpd, I get the 
appended error. The configuration for lighttpd is stuck with the same as 
before the accident. spawn_fastcgi ist installed as well as other php5 
stuff.


I'm helpless,

Does anyone have any idea what's going wrong?

Box is running FreeBSD 8.0-BETA3/AMD64 with compiled world of today. 
Software has been taken from ports within the past two days, so it 
should be up to date.


Regards,

Oliver

ACPI Thermal on ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe

2006-06-18 Thread O. Hartmann
I recently changed mainboard due to defects from ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe to 
ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe and now I'm missing several ACPI entry when 
looking for thermal sensors via sysctl hw.acpi. I guess misisng this is 
due to the newer hardware and/or BIOS. Is there a solution/support in 
sight within the next months or is FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT supporting these 
things?


Thank you in advance,

MD5 vs. SHA1: hashed passwords in /etc/master.passwd - can we configure SHA1 as default in /etc/login.conf?

2009-01-03 Thread O. Hartmann
MD5 seems to be compromised by potential collision attacks. So I tried
to figure out how I can use another hash for security purposes when
hashing passwords for local users on a FreeBSD 7/8 box, like root or
local box administration. Looking at man login.conf reveals only three
possible hash algorithms selectable: md5 (recommended), des and blf.
Changing /etc/login.conf's tag

default:\
:passwd_format=sha1:\


followed by a obligatory "cap_mkdb" seems to do something - changing
root's password results in different hashes when selecting different
hash algorithms like des, md5, sha1, blf or even sha256.

Well, I never digged deep enough into the source code to reveal the
magic and truth, so I will ask here for some help. Is it possible to
change the md5-algorithm by default towards sha1 as recommended after
the md5-collisions has been published?

Thanks in advance,
Oliver

How to copy only skeleton files while creating a existing user's homes directory?

2009-01-16 Thread O. Hartmann

Hello,
I have the following situation:

Users are stored in OpenLDAP. I need to create homes directories on new 
machine memebers in the pool of workstations and do not want the usage 
of an automated creation of loggin in user via pam_mkhomedir. Creation 
should be done manually.
My question: is it possible to use a FreeBSD tool/command like 'pw(8)' 
only for copying and initiating an existant user's home?


I tried simply pw useradd USER -m -b /homes/ for that purpose, but pw 
errors me saying the user USER already exists (is a OpenLDAP user).


Thanks in advance,
Oliver

X11/Xorg: does VESA driver support ATi Radeon HD4830?

2009-01-17 Thread O. Hartmann
I got a MSI R4830T2D512 ATI Radeon HD compatible graphics accelerator
card I would like to use on my FreeBSD 8.0-CUR box running the most
recent Xorg out from the ports-collection.

As I found out, 'radeonhd' driver needs Xorg server 1.5.0 or higher when
running in 64Bit and FreeBSD's ports are behind with 1.4.X. Therefore I
tried VESA driver, but neither radeon, radeonhd nor vesa driver do
recognize the board.
I sthere any chance of getting Xorg-server 1.5 soon or is there another
way making VESA driver recognizing the HD4830?

Thnaks in advance,
O.

How to force usage of pcm1 instead of pcm0 (HDA audio hardware two time present)

Hello,
since I have a AMD/ATI HDMI-capable graphics hardware my onboard sound 
hardware (HDA) gets recogniced as pcm1-3, the HDA capable digital device 
onboard the graphics adaptor is numberd pcm0. How can I force the OS 
(FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE) to number the on-graphics-HDA device as the last 
one found?
