Bonjour,
Nous avons un problème au moment de l'installation d'un de nos logiciel:
Lorsque que nous insérons une disquette et lançons notre commande
d'installation, le message suivant apparait:
/dev/fd0: Cannot read :Input/Output error
At Beginning of tape - Quitting now
Error is not recoverable: Exiting now
Néanmoins, le lecteur de disquette fonctionne car nous utilisons plusieurs
autres disquettes avant la disquette d'installation.
Nous avons vérifié le BIOS et tout parait bien configuré...
Pouvez vous nous aidez à résoudre notre problème?
Cordialement

Hello,
I have been having the same problems with pptp
trying to connect to a Win VPN server.
Could not figure out what the problem was.
I guess it had something to do with the encryption
protocols.
I am currently using mpd. You can find it in the ports tree.
There are some sample conf files on the net too.
Good Luck.

Hello!
I have a problem setting up VPN connection to my workplace.
I followed this tutorial http://www.freebsddiary.org/pptp.php
When i start pptp client it looks like the connection is created.
I get an ip address on tun0. Routes are added to the routing table and
everything seems fine.
But when i try to connect/ping to any server through the vpn, the
connection closes.
This vpn connection works from my XP box with no problems.
/etc/ppp/ppp.conf
WORK:
set authname myusername
set authkey mypass
set timeout 0
set ifaddr 0 0
add 192.168.100.0/24 HISADDR

Est-ce la disquette fonctionne? Est-ce que le filesystem de la disquette
est de type msdosfs? Est-ce que vous pouvez lire la disquette sur une
autre machine?
Si vous pouvez répondre en anglais, vous aurez plus d'aide, cette liste
est majoritairement anglophone. Je ne connais pas de liste francophone
existe pour freebsd.
Merci,

Subject: Unable to load kernel
To: <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org>
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1250"
I have tried to install FreeBSD 6.1 (downloaded as an iso from
freebsd.org) onto the last 1.5Gb of a 120Gb disk, the rest is windows
XP, this appears to go normally except for the geometry I get the
message “geometry of 238216/16/63 for ad0 is incorrect. Using a more
likely geometry”. (Which turns out to be 14946/255/63). When I
attempt to load FreeBSD I get the error message “Unable to load kernel”
and it goes to the OK prompt. In the bios it gives the geometry as
58853/16/255, however if I try to but this in once more I get the error
“Geometry … incorrect. Using a more likely geometry.”
Any suggestions as to what I’m doing wrong?
Brian Levie
