Update (was: 4.4-RC: ad0: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting)
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? --- francis vidal [bitstop network services] streaming media + web services v(02)330-2872,(02)330-2873 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message

That sounds highly unlikely given what CPUTYPE actually does. Kris PGP signature
Re: Security on FreeBSD
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, Lucky Wolf 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.

Re: support for a.out in ports
[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. -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-stable in the body of the message

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. Kris PGP signature

I need to know what I need to do to let this work, since we are trying not to open up full telnet. 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. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] = The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

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?
