Updating glib from 2.24.2 to 2.26.1_1 fails

If the remote hosts are running FreeBSD, you can do almost *everything*
through SSH.  For example most of my FreeBSD-related testing work
happens through SSH connections to virtual machines these days.

If you really need to run a GUI application though there are a few
options:

  - The most basic is to connect to the remote machine in *some* way,
set the DISPLAY environment variable to point to a local X server
that may accept incoming connections and fire up your GUI program.

  - You can SSH into the remote machine and use the -X or -Y options to
set up 'X forwarding' back to the machine where the SSH connection
has originated from.

  - You can use programs like the NX tools 
to set up a 'remotely accessible X desktop' on the target machine
and then use nxclient to connect to it from anywhere.

The fastest and simplest method is still a plain good old SSH connection
though.  It requires minimal setup (an sshd daemon on the remote side),
it is accessible from anywhere in the world, it's secure against random
eavesdroppers, it's fast to connect to, it's pretty light-weight on both
the client and server systems, and you can do _everything_ on the remote
host [even full system upgrades from source].

Hi,

I am having a very difficult time understanding what is going on with this 
FreeBSD machine..


I was having inet trouble so i put in a new router on my network (home 
network)..


I have a FreeBSD machine on my network:

FreeBSD yeaguy.com 8.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #3: Thu Nov  4 20:43:41 
PDT 2010 v...@yeaguy.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HBCA  i386



I have windows machines on my network..


One of my windows machines is my laptop and I connect directly to the 
router via WIFI without any trouble at all...  I can browse any website 
without complaint.


My FreeBSD system connects to my WIFI router just fine as well..  I am 
seeing troubles browsing the inet with my FreeBSD machine (Xorg and 
opera) Pulling up Google.com can take up to 30s..


My Other windows machine is using the FreeBSD as its gateway, I am running 
ipnat. This pc suffers from the same issues as the FreeBSD box..


I configured the new router with the same ssid and wepkey.. so minimal 
adjustments would have to be made for other WIFI users in the house.. 
Everyone is fine except me...


My server is fine as far as my Website is concerned.. I changed my DNS 
with my host to point to my new WAN IP.. I can pull my page fine.. I can 
ssh to my server fine from my phone, phones ip is from my Phones netowrk.. 
this is not being done via WIFI on my phone..


So my Nat'd WIN PC and my FreeBSD Xorg cannot browse the internet like it 
used to.. 30s to 40s to pull up google is just unacceptable, when I have 
my laptop sitting here using the same WIFI router pulling it up in about 
3ms...


Another odd symptom I am seeing is that when i issue the command 'alpine' 
to check my email, it hangs for a good 30s  So in my mind, Im 
thinking, what changed?? My router and my Public IP.. thats it.. its 
almost like I have my OLD WAN ip hardcoded somewhere causing a conflict.. 
I cannot find it hardcoded anywhere..


Heres an example of what im seeing:

ACPI error message

[Davide Petilli]

During the boot I can see these error mesages related to acpi.
I've built my kernel but the error messages come up on the default kernel too. 
Does anyone know what is it and how to solve this?
I tried to figure it out by myself without succes.

These are the relevant parts of my dmesg:
-
acpi0:  on motherboard

Without reading any further, this simply =reeks= of being a DNS problem.
(99.98792+% of all "30+ seconds to something over the net" problems
are timeout issue. :)

I suspect:
   a) the new router is not using the same 'local network' adddress as the
  old one was,  This is not a total show stopper, because everyting 
  'local' is using DHCP to get both the local machine address _and_ 
  the router address. 
   b) you have a DNS server address hard-coded in the /etc/resolv.conf file.
  (the old router and new router are providing DNS proxy services on
   *different* addresses, and wyat you have hard-coded is the -old-
   address)
   c) your FBSD machine is trying to query the hard-coded DNS server 
  address _first_, and when it gets no response, it *eventually*
  (ie. after 30 seconds) tries the 'second' DNS server address it has,
  which is the one learned by DHCP -- that works, the name resolves,
  and the page loads.

On a WORKING windows box click "Start->Run", and type 'ipconfig/all' in the
box, to see what it is using for a DNS server.

Check '/etc/resolv.conf' on your FreeBSD box, and see if it lists a 
*different* address on a 'namemserver' line.

Hi,

I am having a very difficult time understanding what is going on with this
FreeBSD machine..

I was having inet trouble so i put in a new router on my network (home
network)..

I have a FreeBSD machine on my network:

FreeBSD yeaguy.com 8.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #3: Thu Nov  4 20:43:41
PDT 2010     v...@yeaguy.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HBCA  i386


I have windows machines on my network..


One of my windows machines is my laptop and I connect directly to the router
via WIFI without any trouble at all...  I can browse any website without
complaint.

My FreeBSD system connects to my WIFI router just fine as well..  I am
seeing troubles browsing the inet with my FreeBSD machine (Xorg and opera)
Pulling up Google.com can take up to 30s..

My Other windows machine is using the FreeBSD as its gateway, I am running
ipnat. This pc suffers from the same issues as the FreeBSD box..

I configured the new router with the same ssid and wepkey.. so minimal
adjustments would have to be made for other WIFI users in the house..
Everyone is fine except me...

My server is fine as far as my Website is concerned.. I changed my DNS with
my host to point to my new WAN IP.. I can pull my page fine.. I can ssh to
my server fine from my phone, phones ip is from my Phones netowrk.. this is
not being done via WIFI on my phone..

So my Nat'd WIN PC and my FreeBSD Xorg cannot browse the internet like it
used to.. 30s to 40s to pull up google is just unacceptable, when I have my
laptop sitting here using the same WIFI router pulling it up in about 3ms...

Another odd symptom I am seeing is that when i issue the command 'alpine' to
check my email, it hangs for a good 30s  So in my mind, Im thinking,
what changed?? My router and my Public IP.. thats it.. its almost like I
have my OLD WAN ip hardcoded somewhere causing a conflict.. I cannot find it
hardcoded anywhere..

Heres an example of what im seeing:

8.1-STABLE Unexpected XML: what does it mean?

Hi

I observe the very strange message while run a lot of commands:

r...@beaver:eugene# glabel status

Unexpected XML: name=stripeoffset data="0"
Unexpected XML: name=stripesize data="18432"

What subsystem prints them? How can I fix it?

Good luck

Creating clone of a HDD including boot partition

[nagios]

Hello, 

I have setup a tailored made configuration (1 UFS partition + 1 swap + boot 
sectors) for some hardware that I am reselling and would like to clone one 
existing HDD (tailor made) and be able to dump to another new HDD.
 
System is running pfSense with FreeBSD 7.2 and soon 8.x 

What would be your suggested method to achieve this goal. 


Thx.

I think we are resolved...

I statically set my NAT'd WIN PC to what the Laptop was picking up and 
problem solved..


I edited named.conf and set my forwarders to what my laptop was picking up 
and problem solved.. my named.conf have the forwarder set to:



192.168.1.1, apparently the new router and an old dns server from my last 
job.. which normally worked fine..


i suspect that the old router was able to handle dns, while this one 
cannot...



Thanks so much..

Hi,

I am having a very difficult time understanding what is going on with this 
FreeBSD machine..


I was having inet trouble so i put in a new router on my network (home 
network)..


I have a FreeBSD machine on my network:

FreeBSD yeaguy.com 8.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #3: Thu Nov  4 20:43:41 
PDT 2010 v...@yeaguy.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/HBCA  i386



I have windows machines on my network..


One of my windows machines is my laptop and I connect directly to the 
router via WIFI without any trouble at all...  I can browse any website 
without complaint.


My FreeBSD system connects to my WIFI router just fine as well..  I am 
seeing troubles browsing the inet with my FreeBSD machine (Xorg and opera) 
Pulling up Google.com can take up to 30s..


My Other windows machine is using the FreeBSD as its gateway, I am running 
ipnat. This pc suffers from the same issues as the FreeBSD box..


I configured the new router with the same ssid and wepkey.. so minimal 
adjustments would have to be made for other WIFI users in the house.. 
Everyone is fine except me...


My server is fine as far as my Website is concerned.. I changed my DNS with 
my host to point to my new WAN IP.. I can pull my page fine.. I can ssh to 
my server fine from my phone, phones ip is from my Phones netowrk.. this is 
not being done via WIFI on my phone..


So my Nat'd WIN PC and my FreeBSD Xorg cannot browse the internet like it 
used to.. 30s to 40s to pull up google is just unacceptable, when I have my 
laptop sitting here using the same WIFI router pulling it up in about 
3ms...


Another odd symptom I am seeing is that when i issue the command 'alpine' 
to check my email, it hangs for a good 30s  So in my mind, Im thinking, 
what changed?? My router and my Public IP.. thats it.. its almost like I 
have my OLD WAN ip hardcoded somewhere causing a conflict.. I cannot find 
it hardcoded anywhere..


Heres an example of what im seeing:

I'd hazard a guess that either your userland and kernel are out of sync or
something like that is taking place.
The messages come from libgeom and they mean it doesn't understand those 
"stripe*"
properties.

P.S.
geom@ is often the best mailing list for geom issues.

Hello.

A couple of months I had the same issue to 
solve... with HDD of my laptop one of you 
guys, thanks, recommend to use clonezilla or 
clonezilia, it is in sourgeforce projects if I am 
not wrong. Woked like a charm, 1 bot sector, 
diferent OS partitions took some hours but worked perfectly

I hope this helps

If the remote hosts are running FreeBSD, you can do almost *everything*
through SSH.  For example most of my FreeBSD-related testing work
happens through SSH connections to virtual machines these days.

If you really need to run a GUI application though there are a few
options:

  - The most basic is to connect to the remote machine in *some* way,
set the DISPLAY environment variable to point to a local X server
that may accept incoming connections and fire up your GUI program.

  - You can SSH into the remote machine and use the -X or -Y options to
set up 'X forwarding' back to the machine where the SSH connection
has originated from.

  - You can use programs like the NX tools 
to set up a 'remotely accessible X desktop' on the target machine
and then use nxclient to connect to it from anywhere.

The fastest and simplest method is still a plain good old SSH connection
though.  It requires minimal setup (an sshd daemon on the remote side),
it is accessible from anywhere in the world, it's secure against random
eavesdroppers, it's fast to connect to, it's pretty light-weight on both
the client and server systems, and you can do _everything_ on the remote
host [even full system upgrades from source].



Hello.
Thanks all for your time
On Freebsd and Linux machines I have entered using SSH already 
and I amtrying to help (my linux knowledge is not so good). :=(


Thing is to access the GUI, same screen they have with errors, on 
their windows and Mac machines (XP and OSX mainly). I am trying to 
setup one of the VNC solutions around. Just reading befores about 
security involved in each one.


Take care all and have a great day.

boot, rc script and logs

[Samuel Martín Moro]

Hi,

I'm adding some scripts to FreeBSD boot.
One of this script runs a binary that checks our postgres database, its
output being redirected to a dialog --gauge.
But I noticed that the dialog output, while correctly displayed on the
terminal, is also dumped into /var/log/console.log and /var/log/messages.

I'm not even sure about how this is happening... I can't find about messages
nor console.log in /etc/rc*
Is there a way to disable log output in a given rc.script?

here's my script:
#!/bin/sh
[...]
test "$1" = 'start' -o "$1" = 'faststart' || exit 0
Prg=`basename $_file`
exec 2>/var/log/$Prg.log
test "$TERM" || export TERM=cons25
DIALOG="/usr/local/bin/dialog --no-collapse --cr-wrap --colors"
echo "tty is `tty`" >&2 #debug, prints: tty is /dev/console
echo "= Checking DB 1/2 =" >&2
dbcheck -s | $DIALOG --gauge "\n  Checking DB 1/2" 7 70 2>/dev/null
echo "= Checking DB 2/2 =" >&2
dbcheck -r -s | $DIALOG --gauge "\n  Checking DB 2/2" 7 70
2>/dev/null
[...]

here is what it gives in /var/log/messages:
Dec 14 13:26:46 camtrace13 dhclient: New Subnet Mask (wlan0): 255.255.255.0

RE: Kind of off topic.

[Gary Gatten]

It sounds like you're wanting a remote desktop to actually see the active users 
GUI session?  If it's simply to see the error messages, I would recommend some 
sort of centralized logging.  There are several tools that take Winblows events 
and turn them into syslog events.  If you "need" remote desktop access, perhaps 
WebEx would help - or as others pointed out an RDP client for *nix should work 
as well.

Hello.
Thanks all for your time
On Freebsd and Linux machines I have entered using SSH already 
and I amtrying to help (my linux knowledge is not so good). :=(

Thing is to access the GUI, same screen they have with errors, on 
their windows and Mac machines (XP and OSX mainly). I am trying to 
setup one of the VNC solutions around. Just reading befores about 
security involved in each one.

Take care all and have a great day.

 I followed some documentation I found on the setup and modifying
 the /etc/resolve.conf file and all went fine until I ran the script
 to invoke pptp and when it ran I got an error message stating
 basically that /usr/bin/ip was an unknown command.
 ip is a linux command but doesn't seem to be part of a default

 My question isWhat if any is the equivalent of ip on freebsd or
 which port would I install to get ip or it's equivalent?

RE: Kind of off topic.

[Jorge Biquez]

Exactly... some of the things I need to help them is an old 
application they are using developed in house for them... but that 
does not record teh errors logs... that's why I need to "be seeing" 
the actual user interface while they are working trying to reproduce 
the errors they have
On Mac they are setting up and old version of Timbuktu and that will 
do the job I guess


Thanks all.

gzip is in the base system, and there are, AFAICT, no header files for gzip.
gzlibcompressor.c however tries to include zlib.h, and it might or might not 
expect something that's in FreeBSD 8.1, but not in 8.0, however I cannot tell

Anyone can confirm this?

I regret to disagree  :-), but:

CVSweb suggests zlib.h header has been part of the system for 14+ years, ie, 
from FreeBSD-2.x era:

Okay, did some source code digging, and I believe the actual error starts here:

which, if I interpret all correctly, means that gz_header is no typedef (or at 
least, isn't found by the compiler), but this struct actually has been declared 
in zlib.h, which is in the #include list of gzlibcompressor.c

The config part of the glib port actually verifies whether zlib.h is available 
or not:

checking zlib.h usability... yes
checking zlib.h presence... yes
checking for zlib.h... yes

Chuck,

Thanks for your answer. I looked for a gzip.h, but obviously didn't find one :-)

I found indeed no differences between 8.0 and 8.1.

Indeed.  Well, gzip is a primary client of zlib aka /lib/libz.so.X

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "the corresponding expression
doesn't map to termcap". Do you mean that FreeBSD's curses library need
to be patched to handle 256 colors ? (using 8.1 RELEASE here; ncurses is
version 5.7.20081102).

However, both Co and pa are documented in termcap(5) as being the number
of colors and bg/fg pairs. In addition, I added the following to my
termcap file :

rxvt-unicode-256color|rxvt-unicode terminal with 256 colors (X Window System):\
:cc:Co#256:pa#32767:tc=rxvt-unicode:

When running [1], I do get 256 colors. However, tmux is in black & white
(actually, it already was, unless run with something like
TERM=xterm-16color tmux new ; but we don't want to lie about $TERM, do
we?).

Hum, of course I had the idea of looking at the SVN tree only after
sending this post. This rxvt-256color definition was added a couple of
weeks ago, by a certain Sterling Camden :-). So, I am now able to say
that when adding the following entries to 8.1's termcap file, my
terminal works as expected :

rxvt-256color|rxvt terminal emulator with 256 colors:\
:Co#256:AF=\E[38;5;%dm:AB=\E[48;5;%dm:tc=rxvt-unicode:

rxvt-unicode-256color|rxvt-unicode terminal with 256 colors (X Window System):\
:tc=rxvt-256color:

(I even got 256 colors in a screen on a Linux machine accessed inside a
tmux running on a FreeBSD machine.)

Should I send a PR in order to get this new definition installed?

Give /usr/ports/net/mpd5 a try. I've been using it for a good while now and it 
works really well with either a windows server or FreeBSD server.

Hello all.

A friend is asking me to help him to solve some problem he has in his
servers. To some I would be able to connect using ssh, with other
just it i snot possible. I remember that on the windows world there
was a commercial software PCANywhere. He can have it but I am not
sure if I would be able to connect to that from my Freebsd machine
(of course not by ssh).
What are you using for connecting to graphical interfaces of
different OS's from FreeBSD?
I tested some years ago a VNC software but did not work fine with MAC
OSX (recently released by then).
I know big security factors are involved for sure.
Any suggestion on what to use, not to expensive or free?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, I thought all the servers were *nix.

Ah...  I think there is an ssh sevice for winblows - not 100% sure though.  Any 
errors that are visible in a GUI app "should" be able to be logged to syslog, 
event logs, proprietary log file, etc...  Guess that depends on the app and the 
developer though!

Hello.

SSH in some of the servers is acting and working BUT I am assuming
some servers won't have it... like some windows based machines
The Mac's have it but the idea isto have the graphical interface
since the errors of the problems they are having are presenting in
their graphical applications

Thanks a lot for you time. I will try to find a VNC that can be used
in possible in all.

Yes, preferably with a patch file that only contains your new entry.
Just do a diff between the stable version and your final version.  I can
submit it, if you don't feel like it.

You should try posting this to the freebsd-acpi list instead, including 
the full /var/run/dmesg.boot and details of your hardware (make, model);
I've not seen an 'INSYDE' ACPI BIOS before, but others may know of it.

The first ACPI Error message indicates not being able to access the 
Embedded Controller (EC), which among other problems that may cause, is 
why ACPI can't get information on your battery status [\\_SB_.BAT0._STA]

There have been recent commits to acpi_ec.c and other ACPI code - you 
could try booting 8.2-BETA1 from a CD or memstick to see if that helps? 
- otherwise you're likely to be asked to provide info on your machine's 
ASL etc.  Best to be well prepared first by studying:

As you indicate below, 'tty is /dev/console' while running the boot rc 
scripts, so it's normal to see these scripts logged to console.log when 
that's ebabled .. presumably /etc/syslog.conf includes something like:
# uncomment this to log all writes to /dev/console to /var/log/console.log 
console.info/var/log/console.log

You're redirecting stderr to your logfile, but not stdout, so standard 
output from the below goes to /dev/console, so also to /console.log

The above line is also written to stdout, so to console.log below, so 
I'm not sure whether your exec usage | syntax | redirection is correct.

I don't know why those two dialog lines are sent to /var/log/messages; 
perhaps they indicate some error, only those being logged with *.notice?

If you view these scripts you'll see that they don't themselves write to 
stdout .. it's the rc system logging these.

You'll need to rework this somehow so dialog's stdout isn't written to 
/dev/console, though that may seem necessary if you want it coming up on 
the VTY0 boot screen.  It may involve decoupling this task from running 
'inline' as a boot script somehow, or else making sure that output is 
redirected to a log or temporary file instead of directly into dialog.

dhclient's (running) output is normally logged to messages, whereas the 
'Starting' messages are output of the rc process as it launches things.

And it's only those couple of lines to messages, the rest of them to 
console.log is unsurprising and expected if they're written to stdout.

Is there a better place I could/should be asking questions about PostgreSQL
and DTrace on FreeBSD? Or is this combination still black magic at this
point?

freebsd-ports@ is a reasonable alternative (since PostgreSQL is a port), but 
freebsd-questions@ is the best place to ask "mixed" questions, where the issue 
involves a combination of base system, ports, etc.

However, you should be able to run the thing under gdb, or debug a corefile 
which was previously generated, and gain more information about what is going 
wrong.  IMO, doing SQL query tracing and optimization is much more likely to 
produce tunable performance improvements than working at the DTrace level

Thank you very much! I'll study the linked resource well, next I'll post on the 
acpi mailing list.
