freebsd for Sun Fire X4250
Hi, This server is built with Xeon cpu processor, Intel based. Can FreeBSD 8+ fully compatible with this server like those ordinary Intel i386 machine?

Re: freebsd for Sun Fire X4250
Hi Gavin, The reason I want to stick with i386 is because about few years ago when I tried AMD release of FreeBSD, it didn't have the same level of proficiency as i386 release of FreeBSD - packagThat was my impression at that time. I hope it has changed in this years. Is there any major installation difference between AMD (64) and i386 release of FreeBSD (8.0)? Thank you for your answers.

Re: kernel hang when reboot with loaded ip_vs_rr.ko
It is IPVS patch, for FreeBSD. I am in Melbourne Australia. Can you send me email regarding about how to fix this issue? BTW, if I kldunload ip_vs_rr before reboot/shutdown, the system will execute the reboot / shutdown normally. When I executed reboot/shutdown with the ip_vs_rr still loaded in the kernel, the system hangs after the console printed the message "...vnode" Here are the modules loaded: # kldstat Id Refs AddressSize Name 15 0xc040 a434d8 kernel 21 0xc0e44000 6a45cacpi.ko 31 0xc469d000 2000 ip_vs_rr.ko 41 0xc469f000 b000 ipvs.ko # shutdown -h now . Syncing disks, vnodes remaining... 1 1 0 0 done All buffers synced. IPVS: ipvs unloaded then it hangs forever. Another problem is I can't put ipvs_vs_rr_load="yes" in the /boot/loader.conf file. The system will hang when it tried to boot the kernel with this ko loaded.

Hi, With FreeBSD 7.2Stable, I have done this many times before. After about a month left the "jail" behind, now when I done a "/etc/rc.d/jail start" and ssh into it, I ended up login to the host system. Here is the network configuraiton of the host system and the jail system: # ifconfig rl0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500 options=8 ether 00:00:21:ef:27:f7 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active rl1: flags=8802 metric 0 mtu 1500 options=8 ether 00:50:fc:65:78:c0 media: Ethernet autoselect status: no carrier fxp0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500 options=8 ether 00:13:20:65:a9:be inet 192.168.1.246 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet 192.168.1.245 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet 192.168.1.235 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet 192.168.1.242 netmask 0x broadcast 192.168.1.242 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX ) status: active plip0: flags=108810 metric 0 mtu 1500 enc0: flags=0<> metric 0 mtu 1536 pflog0: flags=141 metric 0 mtu 33204 pfsync0: flags=0<> metric 0 mtu 1460 syncpeer: 224.0.0.240 maxupd: 128 lo0: flags=8049 metric 0 mtu 16384 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x8 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff00 twp1:# jls JID IP Address Hostname Path 5 192.168.1.242 twp5.ip6.com.au /usr/jail2/twp5 192.168.1.242 is the jailed system, twp1 is the host system.

half-duplex
Hi, I am running a FreeBSD 5.4 stable as a network router. I don't know any reason why one of the ethernet ports becomes half-duplex. Here is its detail: em1: flags=8843 mtu 1500 options=b inet 60.1.2.3 netmask 0xfffc broadcast 220.233.99.39 ether 00:04:23:bc:3a:d1 media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP ) status: active em2: flags=8843 mtu 1500 options=b inet 10.1.10.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 10.1.10.255 ether 00:04:23:bc:3a:d2 media: Ethernet autoselect (1000baseTX ) status: active This network card is a Quat Port Intel card. Is there any way I can "reset" it to full-duplex and 1000baseT without close down the network connection on em1? I know I can use following command to change it: ifconfig em1 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex but if this not work, it will close down the entire internet connection, which I try to avoid.

Re: Proposed 6.2 em RELEASE patch
Without introduced this new patch, can I still use sysctl to maximise its performance like FAST_INTR? S On 11/9/06, Jack Vogel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: This patch is an evolution of the last one I sent out. It has a couple of minor corrections, like a bad forward decl in the header. The last patch has had quite a bit of testing and all reports have been positive. The only complaint was from Gleb who says he needs to keep his beloved infinite for loop in the interrupt handler, well I have a better one for you Gleb, keep reading. I have also been doing some extreme stress testing using SmartBits, and discovered the driver as it stands is really not able to take extreme receive side pounding, Scott pointed out that this is why the FAST_INTR work was done :) There were some people that had stability issues with that work, but there were also many that did not. I actually merged the FAST code onto my last patch, and ran the SB stress and found it really was able to gracefully handle that load, way to go Scott :) I've pondered this situation, and this patch I'm including here today is the result. Here's what it does: If you drop it in place, compile it, and go... you will get the code that has been tested for a week, it uses the older style interrupts, it has the watchdog and other SMP fixes so its been proven. BUT, I've added the FAST_INTR changes back into the code, so if you go into your Makefile and add -DEM_FAST_INTR you will then get the taskqueue stuff. So, Gleb, rather than replace the infinite for loop that no one thinks is a good idea, you can just define FAST_INTR again, and you should be good to go. I see this as the best thing for the 6.2 RELEASE, it lets us keep moving forward, people that want max performance can define EM_FAST_INTR and help us wring out any problems, it also will mean that I will have our Intel test group start using this code. But for those that just want a stable driver the standard compile will still give them that. The patch I'm including is against BETA3. Let me know of your concerns or issues.

wireless card as access point

If I go online first, my connection goes very fast, but my brother's internet connection will go very slow. I heard that some of the wireless card does not handle multiuser network connection. Is this true? The wireless card I m using in my mini WRAP box is a mini card.

wireless serer card that can handle multi-users
Hi, About half year ago, I tested a mini wireless server card with FreeBSD 6. The connection runs very fast if only myself using it, but when there are more than 1 user connected to it, the second user will suffer extremely slow wireless network connection. My colleague also told me he also experienced that problem for his clients. So he purchased a cheap D-Link Wireless access point for his client rather than bundle the wireless access point (card) in the freebsd router box. Can anyone tell me which wifi server card don't have that problem when configured with freebsd?

Assuming that you're talking about MiniPCI cards, you can use any based on the Atheros chipset. I believe most if not all currently shipping Atheros cards are supported in FreeBSD 6.2. I have personally been using Wistron CM9 for nearly a year now. As far as the problem you described, you could have been running mixed b/g mode causing protection bit to be set which effectively reduces the throughput of your wireless LAN. Hi, thanks for the information. I have logged on to the freebsd router have a look at its wifi setup in rc.conf, but I don't think it is configured as b/g combination mode. I don't have a login to this router at the moment, so I can't post the content of the rc.conf file here. Do you mind post your wifi configuration here or send it to my email?
