Installation on a Dell Poweredge R805

I'm having an issue installing FreeBSD 7 AMD64 on a Dell Poweredge R805. The system starts to boot, throws several mpt_cam_event 0x12 and 0x16 errors, presents the boot menu, and then crashes with a Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode and then wants to reboot. This is a dual

Following up so that the archives will have the resolution: Bad RAM. Turns out that there were about 20 bytes in the third GB of the four in the system that would spit out garbage data when read back. Thanks to everyone on the list and 3Ware support for their suggestions. --Chris

Sendmail 8.13.3 and FreeBSD 4.11 local mail problem

2005-08-02 Thread Chris Boyd
I'm having an odd problem on a server running Sendmail 8.13.3 under 4.11. I've set up sendmail with a set of DNSBLs, local host names, access table for relaying from a static IP, virtusertable, and authenticated relaying. I am able to send and receive email normally through the system--it

While setting up a server with several IP addresses on the same interface, we noticed something a bit odd. When we add the new IP address with the command ifconfig fxp0 alias 192.168.12.100 netmask 255.255.255.255 We can ping the address and all seems well at first. Then apparently the other
