mysql version question

[jan gestre]

i recently upgraded the mysql 4.1.20 ports (both client and server) via
portmanager to version 4.1.21, however as i login to the mysql prompt or
phpmyadmin what i see is the old version, does this mean i still run on the
old version? is there a way to fix these?

TIA

If you are using 'portmanager', then perhaps you should be modifying the
/usr/local/etc/portmanager/pm-020.conf file. There is a section to STOP
and START programs when they are updated. I use 'portmanager' myself,
and have a notation in that file to handle 'mysql' as well as several
other programs that require its services.

Sata/IDE drive recognition problem

[Vizion]

Hi

While preparing to move a system from i386 to amd architecture The existing 
system is dual booting i386 for 5.4 stable and 6.0. My plan is to remove both 
systems, preserve my data and reinstall 6.1 amd from cd.

The motherboard is a FA-K8N51GMF-9 with 3 hard drives installed. 2xSata and 
1xIDE.

Freebsd 5.4 
#df sees 
/dev/ad4s1a 
devfs, 
/dev/ad4s1e
/dev/ad4s1f
/dev/ad6s1d
/dev/ad6s1e
linprocfs

Freebsd 6.0
#df sees
/dev/ad0s1a
devfs
/dev/ad0s1e
/dev/ad01f
/dev/ad0s1d
/dev/ad4s1a
/dev/ad4s1f
/dev/ad6s1d
devfs

The CD installer select drives interface for 6.1 RELEASE amd64 recognizes
ad0 and
ad4 
but not ad6.

For installing 6.1 amd I will need the installer to see all physical devices 
and existing partitions. 

The Bios CMOS features show 
IDE Channel 0 Master WDC WD2000JB
IDE Channel 0 Slave Lite-on CD-RW
IDE Channel 2 Master ST3160827AS
IDE Channel 3 Master WDC WD2000JD
The Advanced Bios features show
First boot device CDROM
Second Boot Device Hard Disk
Third boot Device Hard Disk

The Hard disk boot priority sequence options show:
Ch0
Ch2
Ch3 
root
shutdown -r

/var/log/messages shows
ad0 WDC WD2000JB at ata0-master UDMA33
acd0 Lite-on at ata0-slave USMA33
ad4 ST3160827AS at ata2-master UDMA33
ad6 WDC WD2000JD at ata3-master UDMA33

How do I get the installer select drives interface to recognize ad6?

Thanks in advance

Try hotkeys: http://ypwong.org/hotkeys/
or google for more something else. Also I think you can even setup X to use 
the extra keys...once again hit google up for it.

Downgrade port

[Johnny Choque]

Hi all,

When I have tried to install java 1.5 in freebsd 6.1-release using the
binary file provided in:
http://www.freebsdfoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml

I got an error message pointing out that it needed javavmwrapper-2.0.6
instead of 2.3 (which I actually have installed). I'm trying to use
portdowngrade in order to downgrade javavmwrapper but I have problems with
cvs servers listed in:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/anoncvs.html

Could you tell me if there is another way to downgrade a port? 

Cheers,

Johnny

cdrecord

[dick hoogendijk]

Installed cdrecord from ports.
This version does not include DVD-R/DVD-RW support code.
Cdrecord-porDVD is needed.

I want to burn DVD-R's.
Can this be done with FreeBSD? Do I need cdrecord-devel for this?

You need to install /usr/ports/sysutils/dvd+rw-tools.

This will give you the tools like growisofs that allow you to burn a 
dvd.  You will also want to check out:


http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-dvds.html

and

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/creating-cds.html

These have some nice tips on what to do in certain situations.

Lastly, for dvd+rw-tools you need atapicam; more information can be 
found in the second link above.

Yes and yes, if you want to stick with the cdrtools,
you'll need the cdrtools-devel port for DVD support.
DVD support isn't available in the latest non-alpha
cdrtools release.

If you really want to follow it up:
the pkg-descr points you to that information.


I still dont see what is the advantage of using it with portupgrade? in 
sleepycat.com there is info about bdb4 but I couldnt find a comparison 
or anything which might show the differences?

rc.subr options conflict with one another

[Calvin Hendryx-Parker]

I stumbled upon a bug that I wanted to run by the list first before
submitting it to the bugs list.

If you create a start script and use rc.subr with both of these 
variables set in your script you won't get the desired effect.


${name}_user="myuser"
start_cmd="${command} start"


The first argument will start the command using su if you aren't using 
chroot, and the second one will allow you to override the default method 
for start for example.  When you use the start_cmd or any of the 
argument_cmd variable the su command will not be used to start your daemon.


Does this look like a valid bug or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Calvin

FreeBSD 6.1 buildworld segfault on gcc

I believe 'portdowngrade' is the canonical way.  However, I *always* 
have trouble with the servers for some reason.


Last time I did a portdowngrade I used the following (mind the wrap):
portdowngrade -o 
-s:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs 


Then enter any password.

APC BioPod

[Mike Ginsburg]

Hello,
I am looking into using fingerprint authentication on my machine and I 
have an APC BioPod scanner (usb) to work with. When I plug the scanner 
into the usb port, dmesg shows the following


ugen1: vendor 0x08ff Fingerprint Sensor, rev 1.10/0.00, addr 4

Vendor 0x08ff points to AUTHENTEC

The following directories are created
/dev/ugen1
/dev/ugen1.1
/dev/ugen1.2

Does anyone know of software that can be used to work with this 
fingerprint scanner on freeBSD (6.1)? Or even if it is possible to just 
read the raw data from the stream? Thanks in advance.

Does it always segfault in the same place?  If not then faulty memory is 
your number one suspect.  For that try memtest86+ (google for it and 
burn a CD), or just try pulling memory sticks and seeing if the problem 
goes away (but beware static).

Mounting a snapshot of a file system

[Odhiambo Washington]

Hi all,

I believe that this might be possible..

I have created a snapshot of a filesystem and moved it to a remote host:

dump -L0af - / | ssh remote_host 'gzip > snapshot.gz'

Now I have the file snapshot.gz on the remote host.

Two questions:

1. How can I mount this snapshot and access its contents?
2. How can I use this snapshot to create another system (a clone)?

Thank you for today ;)

Have you tried deleting everything under /usr/obj and trying again?  
Worth a shot but if nothing comes of it and no better suggestions

cd /port/directory
edit Makefile and change the version from 2.3 -> 2.0.6
edit distinfo and change version there too.

then

It will actually downgrade it.

I am not quite sure how this blends with the related libraries but it
does work. I've used it but mostly during minor version changes, not
the major version change like you have.

Why don't you deinstall the 2.3 and install 2.0.6 though?

Perl question.

I'm trying to install bandersnatch in conjunction with Jabber2 and 
running into some trouble.  I'm following the how-to at:

I've installed all of the listed sources from the ports, but when I run 
bandersnatch2.pl, I receive the following error:


Can't locate POE/Preprocessor.pm in @INC

It seems that Preprocessor.pm does not exist on my system.  Can someone

A quick web search shows that POE::Preprocessor was removed from POE in
March.  http://search.cpan.org/src/RCAPUTO/POE-0.3601/CHANGES :

 2006-03-11 23:11:39 (r1887) by rcaputo

Remove POE::Preprocessor. Replaced it with a simple, almost one-liner
preprocessor that's run at Makefile.PL time.

20060506:
  AFFECTS: users of PHP
  AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  The old PHP slave ports (phpN-cli, phpN-cgi and mod_phpN) were removed
  in favour of unified PHP ports that allow building any combination of
  PHP SAPIs (cli, cgi and apache module).
  The PHP CGI binary was renamed to php-cgi, so you should update
  the path in your script. To simplify the update process, *only* for
  this release a 'php' compatibility symlink to php-cgi will be created
  if you don't select the CLI SAPI.
  Before the upgrade you *should* run 'make config' in lang/php4 or
  lang/php5 to configure the SAPIs you want to install.
  As a consequence the default binary packages include the CLI and the
  FastCGI SAPIs.

Wilfully dirtying a filesystem

[Ceri Davies]

I have a system on which /usr is slightly hosed, but not badly enough
for it to fail a preen fsck.

I cannot easily get to single-user on this machine, so is there a good
way for me to dirty the filesystem just enough to force "fsck -p" to
fail (yanking power also difficult)?  "umount -f /usr; reboot" doesn't
seem to work...

How to bypass loader.conf at boot

[Nguyen Tam Chinh]

Hi all,

I edited the /boot/loader.conf to add values for kern.maxdsiz and
kern.dfldsiz.
Unfortunately my server can not boot after that (the values are too big). 
How can I bypass the loader.conf parameters at

boot? Or how I can change these values interactively?
The server is located in a data center and I can access to it through 
supporter.

Please advice.
Thanks all for helping.

Off the top of my head .


Get the guy at the data centre to get a 5.x or 6.x installation CD.
He should boot with it and choose the Fixit option, and select the
live filesystem on CD.
After that, he will be dropped into a shell and the following steps
will work:

fsck -y /dev/da0s1a (change to the correct slice name!!)

Once that is complete:

mount /dev/da0s1a /mnt
vi /mnt/boot/loader.conf
save changes

Exit the Fixit mode and reboot, removing the CD, and voila!

Choose boot menu option 6: Escape to loader prompt

Then you can set/unset anything. Use "show" to see the current values,
"set" to set some parameter, load/unload to load or unload kernel or
modules - see help for more.

Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Make subordinate CA

[Dimitar Trandov - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bank]

Hi,
I have to use MS Certificate Services configured on a Windows machine 
outside of my company


My CA have to be subordinate to the CA on this MS Certificate Server 
(which would be the ROOT CA for my CA) and

I want my CA can generate his own certificates.
So, I created a certificate request on the my FreeBSD CA server (FreeBSD 
some.domain 5.4-STABLE FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE #1)
and submitted via mail to MS Certificate Server and after that I got a 
new CA certificate file. My OpenSSL is 0.9.7e-p1 25 Oct 2004


my submit was: openssl req -new -newkey -nodes -keyout server.key -out 
request.pem


But, it appears that the certificate that got created by MS Certificate 
Services is not properly configured as a CA certificate.
When I create a client certificate with my CA and install it on client 
machine I can see the path from the certificate to the
ROOT CA, but with yellow triangle on my public CA cert. Click on it in 
the chain, it says that:
"This certification authority does not appear to be allowed to issue 
certificates or cannot be used as an end entity certificate".
My question is which option I should use when generate request for my 
root subordinate CA and then sign my own certificates to use in my 
comapany ? some in basic constraints or KeyUsage option I guess ?!?


Thanks in advance and excuse me for my bad English

That's very cool.  I've installed it on some of my machines.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to use it on all of them,
for reasons outlined below.

I've got a few suggestions and ideas ...

(1)  When run for the first time, you get an error message:
 : not found
That's because a few bogus spaces after the backslash in
the line containing the chmod command.  Those trailing
spaces should be removed.  I suppose I don't need to send
a PR for that.  :-)

(2)  Some people aborted the inital "sleep 900" (because
of the above-mentioned error message, or other reasons),
then restarted the script.  In this case there is no sleep,
and the submission _seems_ to be successful (no negative
feedback), but it isn't.

One way to improve the situation would be to check the
mtime on the /var/db/bsdstats file.  If it's younger than
900 seconds, a sleep is required.  For example, something
like this piece of shell code (untested):

FILETIME=$( stat -f %m $id_token_file )
NOW=$( date +%s )

(3)  Some sites require the use of a proxy for HTTP access.
Such sites usually have an entry in /etc/make.conf, so the
ports can fetch their distfiles:

FETCH_ENV=  FTP_PROXY=http://proxy.my.site:3128 \
HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.my.site:3128

The bsdstats script could easily pick up that entry and set
the environment variables appropriatly.  This line at the
beginning of the script should be sufficient:

export $( make -V FETCH_ENV 2>/dev/null )

(4)  Some sites have a proxy that requires authentication.
It is possible to include the password in the FETCH_ENV
entry in /etc/make.conf, but it's usually not a good idea
to do that, because you shouldn't write passwords to files
that are world-readable.

That problem could be solved in different ways.  One way
would be a periodic.conf setting that instructs the script
not to try to submit the data, but instead just print a
reminder to the admin that he should run the monthly script
manually (or print that reminder automatically when the
submission fails because the proxy denies access).
When the admin runs the script manually (which could be
detected by "test -t 0", i.e. stdin is a terminal), it
could ask for the HTTP proxy password and then set the
HTTP_PROXY_AUTH variable appropriately (see fetch(3)).

(5)  Some machines might not be able to access the web at
all.  For example, I'm right now working on a farm of 35
machines which don't have internet access, not even via
a proxy.  I can connect to them via ssh/scp (port 22) from
a management machine, and that management machine only has
web access via a proxy.

It would be nice to be able to request token keys on behalf
of those 35 servers from the management machine, transfer
them to the servers, run the data gathering script on the
servers (putting it into a file instead of submitting it
directyl), copy the results to the management machine and
finally submit them from there.  That's pretty complicated,
but I'm afraid I haven't gotten a better idea so far.  :-(

(6)  All of the statistics on the web page are sorted by
percentages.  It would be nice to be able to click on a
column header and have the table sorted by that value.
That would be especially useful for the release statistics
and the country statistics.

(If the PHP sources and a database export were publicly
available, I would have taken a shot at implementing it.)

(7)  In order to make the bsdstats project really useful,
it is very important to have as many FreeBSD people as
possible install it.  Currently, only very few people will
notice the port and bother to install it.  Therefore I
suggest to put bsdstats into the base system (it's only a
small script after all, no bloat), and add a small switch
to sysinstall which asks users whether they want to enable
it, creating appropriate periodic.conf entry for them, and
maybe even automatically running it when booting the newly
installed system for the first time.

Maybe it should be proposed and discussed in the arch@
mailing list.

Best regards
   Oliver

I don't think that this is really needed.

Let the technician boot the box and tell him to escape to the boot
prompt. When he will be done, he just need to unset those variables
with the following command -- unset kern.maxdsiz; and unset
kern.dfldsiz. After that, he will just have to type 'boot' and that's
all. I hope that this will work for him ;-)

Anyway, try to read through loader(8) manual page.

Actually, that does nicely, thanks.  I had hoped to avoid editing any

What kind of setup do you have where you can't get to single-user mode,
but you apparently want fsck -p to fail (which will put you in
single-user mode)?

If you have a serial console that doesn't kick in until after the
kernel is initialized, just hitting ^\ a couple times during the bootup
sequence should get you your "Enter pathname of shell" single-user
prompt.  You could also put an "exit 1" at the top of /etc/rc and
reboot; just make sure to remove it when you want to continue to
multiuser mode :)

fsck -p failing will drop back to fsck -y, which will fix the problem.

You'll need a mail server.  You've got a bunch of research to do.

Opera spellcheck doesn't work (aspell does)

[Martin Tournoij]

Spell checking in opera doesn't work, opera says that aspell isn't  
installed (it is).

comandline aspell works fine.

The weirdest thing is that the problem is present at both my workstations,  
the one at home and the one at work, one is running FreeBSD 6.0 and the  
other 6.1.


Opera 8.5 spellcheck also didn't work, although I do remember that it  
worked at some time, although this was a long time ago. (I think that was  
with 5.4, not sure though)


Is this a FreeBSD, opera or aspell problem? Look like it's FreeBSD.

I posted this message at the opera forums, unfortunatly without any  
results...


I've tried:
removing and installing opera
removing and installing aspell
symlinking libaspell to /usr/X11R6/share/opera/plugins
Looking for some configuration variable, can't find one in GUI,  
opera:config or in any of the config files.

Removing my .opera
Running opera as root (Desperate)

Thank you for reading.

Um, okay, then why can't you just reboot into single-user mode and run
fsck -y before the filesystem is mounted?

Too dangerous for my liking :)

I inserted a "fsck -F -y" before the "fsck -F -p" in rc.d/fsck and
rebooted; that got it.

It's an Optiplex GX1, with 192MB/10GB.

I didn't try to mess with the geometry, but I didn't give FreeBSD the
whole disk -- I intend for it to coexist with Linux and a FAT32 OS.
I also adjusted the subpartitioning (and this seems to be necessary
-- see below).

It worked better this time.  I suspect the important difference was
that I let it install the FreeBSD MBR (with considerable misgivings,
given the onscreen caution about PC-DOS -- but the FreeBSD boot
manager does seem to boot Windoze without problems).

Unfortunately, it looks as if I'll have to do it *again* because
the default /usr size was quite a bit too small -- even though
sysinstall had over 3GB to start with.

Using the default allocation of that 3GB, and selecting a Developer
configuration (including ports), the install stopped with

  Couldn't create directory /usr/compat: No space left on device.

"df" confirms that /usr is full (and the considerably larger /var
is nearly empty):

  Filesystem  1K-blocksUsed   Avail Capacity  Mounted on

  /dev/ad0s3d   1190350 248 1094874 0%/var

In case it matters, uname -a reports:

   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

Evidently I need to make /, /tmp, and /var quite a bit smaller,
so as to enlarge /usr.

> ... if you still have problems describe to the list
> the end result you're trying to achieve by your tuning.

The first goal is to finish the install without running out of
space :)  I'd prefer to also arrange for FreeBSD to share the
Linux swap space -- thus freeing up more space for /usr or /home
by eliminating ad0s3b -- rather than leaving the Linux swap
unused when FreeBSD is running.  I've found some mentions of
Linux swap partitions in the FreeBSD source code, so I suspect
that this might be possible, but I didn't find any mention in
the docs of how to do it.

The drive currently has three primary partitions (Linux /boot,
FAT32, FreeBSD) and an extended partition containing Linux swap
and Linux root.  Partition Commander (commercial) shows the disk
layout as

Ptn   size   - type -  1st sector  # of sectors
P1  7M   Linux ext2 0x83  63   16002
P0   2.44G   FAT32  0x08   16128 5124672

 L1   3.34G   Linux ext2 0x8312964518 7020342

To answer one forseeable question before it is asked :) I have
quite a bit of Un*x experience, but have not done much system
setup or administration since SunOS 4.1.

Mbox?  I'm partial to Mbox, but I've heard some others say Maildir is 
better.  The server is only going to host about 30-40 users for a realty

 try using google, it will point you to the tutorial's url but since you
already posted that question here, the postfix website has lots of howto in
setting up a mailserver, i for one used the howto's in postfix' website. but
if your too lazy to google :D this url's might help:



http://freebie.miraclenet.co.th/server/install_fbsd/
http://www.astro.ufl.edu/it/install/freebsd.html

here a suggestion, instead of using squirrelmail try using roundcube, we use

it here in our office. roundcube's ajax like interface's absolutely awesome
compared to squirrelmail bland interface, you can install it via subversion.
dovecot is a good choice for imap and pop3 service. postfix can support both
mbox and maildir but i prefer maildir. you can secure your box by chrooting
postfix or putting it behind a firewall. there are so many ways to make it
fully secure, those i mentioned are just a few of them.

Laser Scanners: Do you know what Kyeboard Wedge is ?

[Henry Lenzi]

Hi --

I need to purchase a handheld laser scanner (for a market) and I
would like it to work with FreeBSD, as that is the OS I plan on
installing there (preferably, if I can - I want to avoid Linux, if
possible).

I found this, that claims to work "out of the box". Apparently, there
is this interface called Keyboard Wedge.

"Keyboard Wedge is the simplest and best way to connect the scanner to
a regular desk top computer. There is no software to install, just
connect in the keyboard circuit and start scanning. Works with ALL
applications and ALL Operating Systems running on industry standard
architecture PCs- Windows, DOS, Linux, FreeBSD, Unix etc."

http://www.barcodeman.com/ml/ms9500/

Anyone know anything about this interface and how its integrated in FreeBSD?

There's some info here: http://www.csensors.com/kbdwedge.html

Anyway, I'm looking for a scanner the works on FreeBSD.

TIA,

Henry Lenzi

PS: Anyone in *Brazil* purchased one? Please get in contact.

I've used one of these before. As the link points out:

"What exactly is a keyboard wedge? A keyboard wedge can be either hardware or 
software. Let's look at the hardware type first. It's called a wedge because 
it "wedges" in between the system keyboard and the computer console. The 
wedge interface is built into the barcode scanner. Examples are our  AS8113 
and GT-7000 hand held scannes. Physically, the keyboard plugs into the 
scanner and the scanner plugs into the computer console. When you type on the 
keyboard, the characters are sent to the computer as usual. When you scan a 
barcode, the barcoded characters are converted to keyboard "key codes", and 
sent to the computer. So, the computer thinks that the data in the barcode 
was typed on the keyboard."

Basically, it it pretends to be a keyboard. It plugs into the PS/2 port of 
your computer, and your keyboard plugs in on top of it. When you scan a bar 
code, it "types" out the code as if you had typed it in by hand. It will work 
with any operating system that supports a PS/2 keyboard. No special driver 
necessary.

Thanks for answering. I'm much more optimistic now about using
FreeBSD for my inventory needs.

Easy as that, huh? And have you used it with FreeBSD? And, btw, where
/is/ this code in the source tree?
