4.5-stable - berkwdt unkown device while config GENERIC
Hello list, While trying to build base from source on 4.5-stable, I've encountered the following message GENERIC:107: berkwdt0: unknown device 'berkwdt' ***Stop. # cd /dev/ # MAKEDEV all didn't remove the problem. I've seen berkwdt has been added to -current. Did I mess the sources, or perhaps something else is the issue? Many thanks in advance for any hint (preferrably written for DUMMIES).

Guess you messed up your sourcetree by mixing -current and -stable source. Revisit the FAQ and get yourself a clean -stable source checkout. - Robert
boot problem. in short
Hi all. I have some situation, my machine will not boot after installing amd64_obsd4.5_stable. amd64, 250G harddrive (first physical). 0. 1 Primary 100G NTFS (WindowsXP), 1 Secondary 100G NTFS (just data) 1. have free 36G at the end of drive. 2. in windows make blank primary partition (with powerquest Partition Manager) at all 36G 3. install obsd in this partition 4. reboot Then BIOS, POST,.. and black screen with blinking cursor. (By the way, there was similiar behavior, when i mount ntfs partition in obsd, and forget umount it. After rebooting got black screen. After mount/umount once again all was correct.) Any ideas how to fix?

I'd written: 4. Install MBR program onto boot drive, preserving repaired MBR table # fdisk -u your boot drive You probably do not want to use OpenBSD's fdisk to rewrite the MBR program, it will clear the NT disk signature.

Questions about OpenBGPD setup
Hi Misc, I'm thinking about the best way to accomplish a redundant BGP setup with two boxes running OpenBGPD. I know there are 2 ways that are frequently suggested: First one: active / passive setup with depend on. Bad because sessions are reset, and bad as well because one router idles while the other one has to deal with all packets Second, better one: one carrier per router and linking them together with OSPF and iBGP as discussed in Claudio's papers But there are still a few things I don't like about the second way: I would prefer to connect both carriers to both routers so that still both carriers remain active when one router fails. In addition to that I need either 2 extra machines for running OSPF or traffic might flow twice over one single router which decreases pps performance. Now my idea looks like that: carrier1 carrier2carrier1 carrier2 | | | | |em0 |em1|em0 |em1 |metric50 |metric100|metric100 |metric50 | | | | -- --- | | router1 router2 | | |em2 |em2 |carp with arp |carp with arp |loadbalancing |loadbalancing | | coreswitch1-coreswitch2 | | |RSTP |RSTP | | switchN--- | serverN My targets are: Quite evenly load balancing to reduce pps per router. Full redundancy - carrier, router or coreswitch can fail without service interruption. Avoid additional routers running OSPF. So finally here come my questions: Is this idea that I'm figuring out possible or have I missed something? Has anyone set up such an architecture before? Any hints or suggestions for improvements? Do I reach all my targets: can I avoid OSPF and master/slave operation that way while still having full redundancy without resetting sessions?

Re: tmux vs wake
hi, they're not related to each other, so please stop whining. but i'm happy to have tmux(1) in base because most of the openbsd users/hackers i know used to install the screen port on their systems which is not needed anymore. tmux is nice, it is actively maintained and developed in the tree, and it is more than a replacement for screen. so a possible explanation is that tmux(1) is more important than wake(8). reyk On Fri, Jun 05, 2009 at 05:29:00PM +0200, Pawlowski Marcin Piotr wrote: Hi all, I'm a little bit curious about why there is place in bin for tmux(1) and there is no place for wake(8).

Re: Problems booting OpenBSD 4.5 on Sun Fire v245
I got this panic when I am trying to boot OpenBSD 4.5/sparc64. The installation was painful, the system panic with cdrom access, http access, and only worked with the ftp install by network :( I read the documentation and set security-mode, but it does not work. On a few sparc64 machines, with specific models of cdrom drives, we hit a race in the ide driver, probably related to the cruddy chipset Sun uses. We've hunted for it but we can't find the bug yet. You could try -current. As a bonus, the install is way easier.

Re: boot problem. in short
Thanks, i'll try. Just an idea. Signature is already cleared. How can i test it? 2009/6/5 Josh Grosse j...@jggimi.homeip.net I'd written: 4. Install MBR program onto boot drive, preserving repaired MBR table # fdisk -u your boot drive You probably do not want to use OpenBSD's fdisk to rewrite the MBR program, it will clear the NT disk signature.

Open the top search result, Windows NT: Disk Management Basics, a link at microsoft.com. Step 3. Search forward for disk signature. Step 4. Read this paragraph. Step 5. Think. Step 6. Search forward for disk signature again. Look at the comments about the disk signature under the section labelled Master Boot Record, that shows a hexdump output of the first sector of a drive. Step 7. Think again. The contents of this first sector can be edited. The dd(1) program included with the ramdisk kernel will allow you copy the sector to a file on removeable media such as diskette or USB stick. A hex editor would be required on another platform could be used, then dd once again could be deployed to write the modified sector back to hard drive.

Would changing the values in /etc/sysctl.conf even help in this case? The machine is crashing during the kernel probe, before that file is read. The panic does not give me a ddb prompt and I can't seem to break into ddb; ctrl-alt-esc just reboots the machine, as does ctrl-alt-del. Also, the machine has no serial port, so I can't try the serial console trick.

Voice-chat on OpenBSD with nothing more than aucat and ssh
With the recent work done to the audio system on OpenBSD, a buddy of
mine and I figured it should be easy to setup two-way voice-chat
between two OpenBSD clients using nothing more than aucat(1) and
ssh(1). As we found out, it is both very easy and very usable! We
have telephone-quality chatting working with a = 1 second delay in
the audio (after a few minutes of chatting, this is unnoticeable).
First, a hearty thanks to Jacob Meuser and the other OpenBSD
developers who have worked hard on this recently. Your efforts are
both noticed and greatly appreciated.
Second, I have a couple of questions...
1. We, the two users chatting (users neal and ryan) have ssh accounts
on each other's machines. To voice-chat with each other, what we did
boils down to the following:
ryan# aucat -l
ryan# aucat -o - | ssh r...@neals-machine aucat -i -
User neal would do the same, only to my (ryan's) machine.
When aucat is run in server-mode ('aucat -l') it creates a socket in
/tmp/aucat-USERID/default where USERID is the uid of the user who
ran the command (aucat -l). For another user (neal) to bind to this
socket, we had to make this socket available to the other user, namely
ryan# grep ryan /etc/passwd
(find ryan's uid, call it RYANSID)
ryan# grep neal /etc/passwd
(find neal's uid, call it NEALSID)
ryan# aucat -l
ryan# cd /tmp/
ryan# chmod 755 aucat-RYANSID
ryan# ln -s aucat-RYANSIDaucat-NEALSID
Neal would do the same on his machine, only reversed.
Question: is it possible to run aucat(1) in such a way that the socket
it creates in 'global', such that other users can connect to it?
A quick perusing of the man/archives and the source says no... but I
may be missing something.
2. After doing the above, we would both simply do the following...
ryan# aucat -b 1 -r 11000 -o - | ssh r...@neals-machine aucat -b 1 -r 11000 -i -
With the above -b and -r flags, the audio was not choppy at all, quite
high-quality (equal to telephone quality), and overall very nice. We
had about a ~1 second delay in the audio, however (neal's in Chicago,
I'm in Cincinnati... we expected this), but could any of the
developers familiar with the audio system see a way to perhaps
decrease this delay? We played with other rates (-r values), but
below 11000 the delay was about the same, and the audio became
deeper and more muted. Any other options, to aucat or perhaps
audioctl, that one could play with to reduce this?
Many thanks to the devs again... this rocks. and it's in base.

(find ryan's uid, call it RYANSID)
ryan# grep neal /etc/passwd
(find neal's uid, call it NEALSID)
ryan# aucat -l
ryan# cd /tmp/
ryan# chmod 755 aucat-RYANSID
ryan# ln -s aucat-RYANSIDaucat-NEALSID
Neal would do the same on his machine, only reversed.
Question: is it possible to run aucat(1) in such a way that the socket
it creates in 'global', such that other users can connect to it?
A quick perusing of the man/archives and the source says no... but I
may be missing something.
not yet. it's a bit of a can of worms ...
2. After doing the above, we would both simply do the following...
ryan# aucat -b 1 -r 11000 -o - | ssh r...@neals-machine aucat -b 1 -r 11000
-i -
With the above -b and -r flags, the audio was not choppy at all, quite
high-quality (equal to telephone quality), and overall very nice. We
had about a ~1 second delay in the audio, however (neal's in Chicago,
I'm in Cincinnati... we expected this), but could any of the
developers familiar with the audio system see a way to perhaps
decrease this delay? We played with other rates (-r values), but
below 11000 the delay was about the same, and the audio became
deeper and more muted. Any other options, to aucat or perhaps
audioctl, that one could play with to reduce this?
you could run the aucat server process with a smaller buffer. maybe
-b 1024. that's pretty low latency, maybe too much even. you could
try 8-bit encodings.
Many thanks to the devs again... this rocks. and it's in base.

Package problems after 4.5 upgrade.
I upgraded a system from 4.4 to 4.5. After the upgrade gv failed when run because it couldn't find gv_init.ps. locate didn't show gv_init.ps, and when I tried to list the files in gv I got $ uname -a OpenBSD AddisAbaba.hhadmin.monmouth.edu 4.5 GENERIC#1749 i386 $ echo $PKG_PATH ftp://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/OpenBSD/4.5/packages/i386 $ sudo pkg_delete gv gv-3.5.8p4: complete Clean shared items: complete $ sudo pkg_add gv gv-3.5.8p4: complete $ pkg_info -L gv Expected: Bad packing list for inst:gv-3.5.8p4 at /usr/sbin/pkg_info line 316 $ My other openbsd 4.5 system was installed from scratch; gv works there without gv_init.ps, as does pkg_list -L gv. At this point I have exhausted my package knowledge: I don't know why gv is choking on gv_init.ps, and I don't know why pkg listing doesn't work. What might the explanations be?
Computer turns on after turning on with powerdown=YES (4.5 GENERIC i386)
Hi, I'm running OpenBSD 4.5 with a GENERIC kernel (i386), and my computer boots after shutdown when I run halt. It's not the same like rebooting, since when I halt, the computer actually turns off (as in, all the LEDs are off); but when I reboot it, the LEDs remain on. This worked fine in OpenBSD 4.4, the computer turn off at shutdown, and didn't turn on (sic) afterward. Please tell me if you need more information.
