I got 4 machines at home on an Ethernet coax. A-B-C-D. B is FreeBSD server (samba), the rest is win98 (C is split win/fbsd). C and D talks fine to B. A talks nicely to C (haven't tried to D), but very poorly to B. I got ping losses of 1 out of 3 to 4 from A to B, but no loss A to C. I then too

CMOS clock won't do 2000

2000-02-12 Thread Brian Beattie
I have an older 486 system, running 3.4R that has a cmos clock that seems to be unwilling to accept years out side the range 94-99. The bios seems willing to set dates between 1994-2099, but after reboot any year not between 94-99 is converted to {20,19}94. What I have done is to go into i386/is

Kernel messages, msgbuf and syslog

2000-02-12 Thread Andrzej Bialecki
Hi, I was wondering if there is any way currently to emit a message from within kernel, so that syslogd can pick it up later on, but without spoiling the standard message buffer. AFAIK, there is no way to do it right now. The reason I'm asking is that quite a few programs (most notably ipfw) spi

I don't think this is the very right place to put this message, but I don't really want to subscribe to high-traffic mailing lists and maybe this is a device problem... The device is /dev/fd0 (standart 1,44 IDE floppy, controller fdc). When accessing bad floppy disks the kernel complains for a
