Update (was: 4.4-RC: ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting)

2001-08-28 Thread francisv

I now have the chipset model:

Acer Labs Aladdin ATA33 controller

Are there current issues regarding this controller? If there's none, then it
might be the cables.

My IDE devices:

ad0: 19541MB Maxtor 32049H2 [39704/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA66
acd0: CDROM CD-532E-B at ata1-slave using PIO4

---Previous message---

Hi all,

I've updated my 4.3-STABLE box to 4.4-RC but still I get the error:

ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting

I would like to believe that this is not because of FreeBSD but because of
the hardware. I'll try to post the detailed spec of the motherboard and IDE
HDDs on this box. Has any changes been made to the ata driver since
4.3-STABLE?

 hi all,
 
 seems that the problem is caused by CPUTYPE=k7 in make.conf. change to
 i686 and all went well. this is on duron/kt133 combo. maybe this can be
 reproduced since i still got the error even after fresh install/cvsup.

That sounds highly unlikely given what CPUTYPE actually does.

Re: Security on FreeBSD

2001-08-28 Thread m p

 
 We would like to have a script written that removes all files not needed for 
 a FreeBSD server. Does anyone know a place that has a list of which files 
 are associated with which program?
 
 We are trying to build an IDS using SNORT1.8-RELEASE, LINUX emulation, and 
 sshd. All other programs that are not needed need to be removed, including 
 all manpages.
 
 Thanks,

Hi,

maybe there is something out there. Take a look at this project at
sourceforge.net. At the moment there are only HP-UX 10.20 and 11 and Solaris
2.6 and 2.7 supported but it should be easy portable. 

http://sourceforge.net/projects/armor/

Once you had done the work to port it to BSD contribute it back to all people.

Thanks

Marc

  From my perspective, negative functionality is being lost.  There is a
 nice comment in the source code explaining what it is...

Ah, thanks!  I think I'll drag this into my local 4.3 based

Re: support for a.out in ports

2001-08-28 Thread Maxim Sobolev

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 Hello!

 What's the general opinion on listing the minor numbers of the libraries
 installed by a port in the port's pkg-plist?

 The  bsd.ports.mk  strips  the  minor numbers  out  automaticly  if  the
 PORTOBJFORMAT  is  not aout,  and  the  following ports  currently  list
 libraries in that fashion:

 XttXF86srv-common beecrypt clanlib cle_base dcdflib expect
 faces fnlib hesiod iv jade lcms libdjvu++ libdlmalloc libffi
 libfpx libicq libmalloc libmng libparanoia libslang libsocket++
 libtabe linux-lesstif-ns mh omniORB pari pgplot pilot-link pine
 radiusclient sqlite tcl80 tclExpat tcp_wrapper tix tk80 tvision
 xforms xview

 The only arguments against doing it, that I heard, are:

 a.out is dead everywhere, except for some large corporations,
 who can afford own admins to maintain/fix their ports

 I  think,  this contradicts  the  FreeBSD's  goal of  providing  quality
 software for everybody  (including large corporations). And  if an admin
 needs to maintain/fix the ports, it is not quality software, IMHO.

 a.out was retired more than two years ago!

 I retired my a.out (2.2.8-STABLE) server  this May. I can imagine people
 still  having  a few  co-located  far  enough  to  make a  release  jump
 troublesome, wishing to be able to build  the package on one and copy to
 another...

 They  are not  that  difficult to  add... Should  the  minor numbers  be
 tolerated? Should  they be welcome?  Should they be actively encouraged?
 Thanks,

No, they shouldn't, unless it is a binary-only package. a.out support is
dead, and soon will be retired from bsd.port.mk as well.

 Not necessarily.  It doesn't remove extra files like object files (but
 it does note them if you're paying attention).

Not by default.  .o is in the ignore by default list.

 I believe FreeBSD does not support the reporting, logging, etc. of ECC
 correctable errors.

Someone was working on it a while back. The problem was the interface 
to the MB chipset is different for every chipset and poorly documented.

 Yes, but in this case we were discussing broken buildworlds, and the
 .o files should all be living under /usr/obj (or wherever that's
 linked to).

I often run into weird kernel module build problems because I've
compiled something in sys/modules by hand, and it gets stale and then
gets in the way of kernel compiles.  There's probably a bug lurking in
there somewhere.

Aw heck, my other reply got out too soon.

I presume you have some control over the firewall? But I don't
understand, we are trying not to open up to full telnet. Incoming or
outgoing? Same question for ftp, which side of the firewall is the
client and which side is the server?

To understand where the link failure is occuring you need to compare 
the firewall log with the attempt. Then you'll know what rule is 
blocking.

In non-passive mode the ftp server is told (via the port 21 connection)
what port the client is listening on. Then the server connects from its
port 20 to the specified port for the transfer. A directory listing is a
file transfer.

In passive mode the server tells the client (via the port 21 connection)
which port the server has opened and is listening on to conduct the data
transfer. Then the client opens that link. For clients behind a 
firewall one either has to allow all outgoing connections, or have a 
firewall smart enough to monitor the port 21 communications and open 
specifically for those transactions. /sbin/natd with the punch_fw 
option works for most ftp clients for me in non-passive mode.

I see that the X in the XF86336 directory is the same as what shipped in RC1.
That, at least according to the file dates, are from the beginning of 2000.
Is that on purpose? Couldn't we ship at least the X from the 4.3 release?
