Hey, all.
I want to replace a 9 GB SCSI drive with an 18 GB SCSI drive. All the
hardware supports hot-swapping. Just for kicks, I thought I'd try to
turn the drive off via SCSI commands and replace it without rebooting.
The camcontrol utility doesn't have a disconnect command or a stop unit

It's possible that it's faulty hardware. A system that old could very
well have its share of problems. You may try replacing the RAM,

I have some backup scripts that manipulate a tape library and tape
drive to perform my nightly backups. Ever since the switch from
gtar to bsdtar in the base system, gtar fails to write any data
to my tape and usually puts my SCSI bus in an unusable state. I

I've got an Exabyte M2 connected to my system. I'm running version 5.2.1
and have seen this drive do 64K transfers with "systat -vm" before
(although that was under version 4.9). I can't for the life of me find

I'd like to get jdk14 to build on a FreeBSD 5.x system (right now I'm
trying 5.3-BETA5), but I always get a hang at the same spot.
I'm running a new installation of FreeBSD 5.3-BETA5 with sources cvs'd
yesterday. I have COMPAT_LINUX in my kernel. I have linprocfs mounted
on /compat/linux/proc.
I want to do traffic shaping with a FreeBSD firewall. The firewall uses
IPF on FBSD 5.2.1-p8, and the only shaper I see in the ports is trickle.
This doesn't even integrate into the firewall, so it would be useless to
me for shaping traffic from other hosts on the protected network.
Besides, I can

Greetings!
I use filesystem snapshots when I backup my filesystems. I backup to tape
and I ALWAYS read back the backup and compare it to the snapshot to verify
the data was written correctly.
I use FreeBSD 5.2.1-p6, and my tape drive is an Exabyte M2 drive.
When I do my compare of my tape again
I understand that the Darwin development team has implemented some useful
NFS changes/enhancements in their codebase. I was wondering if any of the
NFS work from Darwin has been merged into the FreeBSD codebase. Does
anyone here know?

A server (that someone else has set up as a development box) gets
the following error whenever I run vipw:

Where do I even begin to look to fix this?
It's running FreeBSD 5.2-RC2.
