System Burn In

What is the best way to 'burn in' or 'stress test' a new system w/ FreeBSD? I'd like to stress test the CPU, Memory, Disk, etc.. To make sure the hardware is 100% good before putting it in production. Thanks! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing li

Re: I could not run this script in /etc/crontab

Check your script for and use full pathnames for commands, cron doesn't guarantee you will have a path or any environment variables you don't set in your script. -Derek At 02:15 PM 2/28/2006, Halid Faith wrote: Hello I have a script. I can run it without a problem as root manually.

Re: System Burn In

The motherboard manufacturer's usually have stress tests in their diagnostics. These usually run outside any OS, meaning you boot the diagnostics. Run them for a couple days continuously to show any issues that may occur. -Derek At 02:27 PM 2/28/2006, Don O'Neil wrote: What is the

AMD64 and NPX

Hi, maybe it´s a stupid question, but this is my first time with FreeBSD 6 on AMD64. Why can´t a make device npx work with my custom kernel? I´ve done it several times when using Intel I386. I´ve noticed it doesn´t exist on GENERIC or NOTES, but I couldn´t find why. I get config: Error: device

Re: Does FreeBSD have problems with SCSI CD-drives ??

Probably should've said that I have no problems booting from all other bootCDs I've tried... even windows manages to do it (which in itself is amazing since it dislikes SCSI greatly). I never had any problems with Linux, FreeBSD on the other hand seems to be a bit more nitpicking... which isn't

Re: SSHD working in a funky fashion

my initial guess is that your firewall is blocking ssh traffic, tcp port 22, on the interface you're trying to log in on. double check your firewall rules and make sure it's explicitly allowed ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.fr

Re: Does FreeBSD have problems with SCSI CD-drives ??

check to see if the drivers for your scsi card are in the default kernel on the cd. it could be that the bios sees the cdrom and boots to it, but the kernel on the cd doesn't support your card, in which case it wouldn't see anything on the cd. if the card isn't supported, compile a kernel with supp

RE: Help Sun Blade 1000

FreeBSD does not run on the UltraSprac III processor. The US II is fine (4m in the lingo), but that is not what you have. There is also no port for Java for the 4m, if this is important to you. Stick with Solaris. If it is anything like the usual Sparc machine, go to the OBP (from the remote co
