Re: [9fans] pppoe on Plan 9

Thanks. I got a username, a password, and an IP address from the Internet provider. How do I give this information to ip/pppoe? If I have to use Factotum, my question is: how do I give the username and password to Factotum, so PPPoE can use it? Thanks: Bela 2010/2/20 Russ Cox r...@swtch.com:

[9fans] leak(1) problem

I have a memory leak in my code, and am using leak(1) to track it but I have reached an en-passe. Leak only reports strdup(2) as being the source of the leak. I added a setmalloctag(2) call directly after the call to strdup(2) but leak continues to report the strdup(2) address rather than its

Greets. I fired up the image provided by Lucho. When I get to the gui and go to do the partitioning, it says there is no disk device. Apparently, it can't see my hard drive. I just unboxed this laptop about an hour ago so I perhaps the drive is sata and it can't see it or something? coud

Re: [9fans] leak(1) problem

Leak only reports strdup(2) as being the source of the leak. I added a setmalloctag(2) call directly after the call to strdup(2) but leak continues to report the strdup(2) address rather than its bounding function. There are many calls to strdup in your program, and you didn't tag the one

Re: [9fans] pppoe on Plan 9

I got a username, a password, and an IP address from the Internet provider. How do I give this information to ip/pppoe? It should just prompt you (via factotum) for the username/password. The IP address should be irrelevant - the ppp server will tell you the IP address anyway. Russ

Re: [9fans] pppoe on Plan 9

The IP address is probably that of the service provider's DNS server, for use on machines other than the one that establishes the PPPoE connection. --On Monday, February 22, 2010 10:02 -0800 Russ Cox r...@swtch.com wrote: I got a username, a password, and an IP address from the Internet

[9fans] vtcache exhaustion

I've been running a vac-based backup on a few unix systems for a while now. A bit over a week ago, one of them started failing with this error: vac: vtcachelocal: asked for block #6289076; only 6288808 blocks Adding -v to the vac invocation, it seems to be failing in the same place

Re: [9fans] vtcache exhaustion

I am not sure, but I have seen things like this since I tried to expand the venti protocol to 16-bit blocks. I have since decided that was a mistake, too intrusive a change, but I have not yet gotten around to rolling back to the old versions of the files. That might make the bug go away,
