Growfs Vinum on 5.2-RELEASE

2004-02-08 Thread Michael Ritchie
I have followed the method advocated by Drew Tomlinson on this list (October 2002) to create a Vinum volume without losing data. Everything worked ok for the first drive... and then I added the second, and grew the file system using growfs ... and then added the third subdisk to the plex, and trie

Regarding the qmail-ldap port assuming I was building a box from scratch, could this port be installed on its own, or is it a 'patch' to an existing (presumably working) qmail installation? The description for this port isn't terribly clear in this regard. Thanks -Original Message- F

RE: Samba and XP?

2003-02-01 Thread Michael Ritchie
XP Home will not 'log into' ANY server-based network (NT4 domain model OR Active Directory). However, this does not mean you can't access samba shares on other machines. ie. it supports workgroup networking but not domain networking. Login to the local XP Home box, browse on the network to find

FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE in VMware

Not sure if this should be in -QUESTIONS or a report to VMware themselves, but when attempting to run FreeBSD 5 within VMware Workstation 3.2 on a Windows XP Pro host, the CPU usage sits at 100% -- whether there are any processes undertaking heavy processing or not. The host PC is a 1.7GHz P4, wit

RE: round robin routing - how?

2003-01-20 Thread Michael Ritchie
I have something similar working with a Squid cache performing the load balancing. Just set it up to have two upstream caches, then set two static routes - one that says traffic to upstream cache 'A' goes through the first adsl link, and cache 'B' should pass through the other. Seems to work ok f

I realise that this question has gone on further than the point at which I am replying, but I believe it is around here that everything seems to go astray. >From my fairly primitive understanding of the TCP stack in FreeBSD, it would seem that in the case of two network cards being on the same sub

I'll back up the case against Lexmark. Many of their larger laser models attempt to do both PCL and PS, as well as some other languages. Unfortunately, they don't seem to have licensed the full PCL or PS code, and their emulation isn't the best. Many pages (especially pages with complex font
