Yes. I do this all the time. I never build in /usr/src or /usr/obj :-). One has to make sure that one has the right config to generate the compile tree with. I believe that the compilers are still compatable enough to allow this to happen. Building world can be done, but may require some hand steps.

Wow, if that's your take on it, then maybe you should. A logo isn't an OS. If someone somewhere can misinterpret Beastie, is it our fault or theirs? Here's the answer: it doesn't matter. A logo shouldn't, for whatever reason, good or bad, be part of anyone's decision on what OS to install. If supplementing Beastie with a different logo brings more users to FreeBSD, then it's a no-brainer. -- Jared Earle :: http://www.23x.net [EMAIL PROTECTED] :: There is no SPORK ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

You would add the following to the end of your IPFW rule for each IP Address you want to restrict. pass all from 192.168.0.10 to any mac any 10:20:30:40:50:60 Where "10:20:30:40:50:60" is the MAC addr for IP addr 192.168.0.10. I have tried static arp today and it seems like it works. As others mentions, it is possible SOMETIMES to change mac address of a nic, so static arp may fail as well as this firewall rule.

I had copied the lines from /usr/local/share/doc/ccache/make.conf into my own make.conf: .if !defined(NOCCACHE) .if ${.CURDIR:M/usr/src*} CC=/usr/local/libexec/ccache/cc CXX=/usr/local/libexec/ccache/c++ .else CC=cc CXX=c++ .endif .else CC=/usr/bin/cc CXX=/usr/bin/c++ .endif However the check on line 2 didn't appear to have the desired effect, so instead of CC staying equal to "cc" and pulling in the buildworld cc and headers, it used the system cc and headers.

bonding interfaces on 5.3-stable SMP.
I'm having some problem with interface bonding on 5.3 stable. I used this before on 4.x without problems. I can't run 5.3-R becuase my SysKonnect nics panic the box when i load the drivers. (5.3-Stable fixed this). First off this is how i'm bonding nics. kldload ng_ether # create ngeth0 and bond sf2 and sf3 to it ngctl mkpeer . eiface hook ether ngctl mkpeer ngeth0: one2many lower one ngctl connect sk0: ngeth0:lower lower many0 ngctl connect sk1: ngeth0:lower lower many1 ngctl connect sk2: ngeth0:lower lower many2 ngctl msg sk0: setpromisc 1 ngctl msg sk1: setpromisc 1 ngctl msg sk2: setpromisc 1 ngctl msg ngeth0: setautosrc 0 ngctl msg sk0: setautosrc 0 ngctl msg sk1: setautosrc 0 ngctl msg sk2: setautosrc 0 # bring up ngeth0 for sniffing duties ifconfig ngeth0 -arp up This works fine for a little while on a SMP kernel, then for what ever reason it stops working (could be mins or hours). Working meaning the ngeth0 nic stops seeing traffic. If I down and then up the ngeth0 nic it will start seeing traffic again. I'm not completely sure but i think it may be related to the SMP kernel. I've tried to duplicate this with GENERIC but i'm still testing. The main app this box is running is NTOP ver 3.1 (from ports). I'm also using the local pcap (not the one from ports). This also bring up a new question. Is this the correct way to do the interface bonding (for sniffing only)? I noticed ng_hub but i couldn't figure out how to make it work with ngeth0. If someone could give me a hand with that that would be great! :) Thanks! oh btw this is 5.3-STABLE FreeBSD 5.3-STABLE #1: Fri Feb 11 10:27:16 CST 2005 ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Once installed and running we installed mySQL on the two machines one we copied over a relatively simple database which ran fine without a problem. The second machine then had another mySQL database moved to it and it started to fall over. After a number of tests we moved the first database off the what had been working server and put the other database on it.

RE: Possible problems with Broadcom BCM5704C 10/100/1000 on Tyan Motherboard
Thanks for this - the oddity is we have two identical machines and on one the problem occurred we then moved the application over to the other machines that had been working fine and it then exhibited the same symptoms - hence the query about the broadcom controller. I am hoping to so some further tests using the other Ethernet controller on the board if I can get it plugged in (unfortunately the machines are in a data center to which I don't have direct access).

That looks pretty normal. In fact, it looks perfectly fine. There doesn't seem to be any significant paging activity, but maybe some processes have been swapped to disk (which is normal). Type "vmstat -w 5" and watch the output of the "po" (page out) and "sr" (scan rate) columns for, say, half a minute. If they're near zero most of the time, there is no paging activity, and you need not worry about RAM. Next, I'd suggest you type "ps -waxwum | less". That will dispay a list of processes sorted by memory usage (largest ones at the top). Check the top-10 or so for any processes that might be kill candidates. If in doubt, copy&paste the top-10 into a follow-up in this thread. > I need to > look up what those 2 processes are doing zombified. Zombie processes don't take up any memory (except for the entry in the process table, but that's just a few bytes), so they shouldn't cause any problem. > I think I just need more RAM, but I'd expect there to be none free before it > starts eating swap. Why with free RAM wouldn't my swap also be liberated? You do not need more RAM. At most, a little more swap space wouldn't hurt, but even that isn't strictly necessary, given that only 18% of your swap are in use. I'd start worrying if that number goes beyond 50%. FreeBSD tries to conserve RAM by swapping processes and pages to disk which haven't been used for a certain time. For example, on a system which runs X11, you'll see the text-mode gettys (those running one the syscons virtual consoles) being moved to swap. That's a good thing, because those processes aren't needed normally, so keeping them in RAM would be a waste of memory. If they're used one day, they're paged back into RAM pretty quickly. Also, when RAM begins to get full, FreeBSD starts paging more aggressively. If the situation clears up and RAM gets free again, those pages stay in swap until they're actually used. For those reasons (and others) it is normal that swap space is being used even though there is free RAM available.
