Hello All, I mentioned a problem with this once before, and was referred to other threads that also talked about this. But I believe a recent problem I was experiencing, may have been related to this: [: -le: argument expected. So I'd like to bring it up again, in hopes that someone might have a cure. Specifically, two printf()'s are sent to the same line, which results in a /very/ hard

Hi If I have the wrong list please feel free to redirect me. I'm running 7.0-RELEASE-p4 and trying to backup to an external USB drive. I'm using the following command dump -a0Lf /backup/diskimages/root /dev/mfid0s1a Where df: Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/mfid0s1a 507630 208436 258584 45% / /dev/da1s1d 709513458

Hi, Whilst doing some QA work on XORP on my desktop, which has fxp0 and msk0, fxp0 got totally hosed. I was running PIM-SM and IGMPv2 router-mode on the box at the time. I wonder if this is related to the problems with fxp multicast transmission I saw back in April. I'm a bit concerned about this as fxp is still a very widespread and useful network chip. I am running

Hi, Is there a way to make use of hardware monitoring on Intel 945GCLF (with Atom 230 cpu)? It is relatively new child of Intel, but maybe someone figured it out yet. pciconf -lv shows this: ichsmb0@pci0:0:31:3: class=0x0c0500 card=0x464c8086 chip=0x27da8086 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = '82801G (ICH7 Family) SMBus

Greetings I am having trouble with suspend/resume on my Thinkpad X31, running 7.0-STABLE as of April 23. Any help would be appreciated. First problem: When I run "acpiconf -s3" from mulituser mode, the system suspends immediately, without executing /etc/rc.suspend (which has mode 755); then on resume, I get a panic. Second problem: When the system panics, I don't get a dump (or

...one want to tackle the problem (work out the logic bug that is in there which causes it), please be my guest. I have other things going on right now (doctors appointments) so I don't have as much time as I'd like.

I upgraded from 6.2 to 6.3 p5 last night. Upon rebooting, the second disk in the mirror is missing. # atacontrol status ar0 ar0: ATA RAID1 status: DEGRADED subdisks: 0 ad0 ONLINE 1 ---- MISSING # grep ata /var/run/dmesg.boot ad0: 238475MB <WDC WD2500AVJB-63UDA0 00.02C01> at ata0-master UDMA100 ad1: 238475MB <WDC WD2500AVJB-63UDA0 00.02C01> at ata0-slave UDMA100 ar0: disk0

Hi I installed the following driver. http://www.f.csce.kyushu-u.ac.jp/~shigeaki//software/freebsd-nfe.html Before I had the nve driver which was unstable on this server and on a prior server in both cases causing either spontaneous reboot or just a crash when under load. So far touchwood the nfe driver has stayed up and running at almost 3 days uptime and has had some stress. I know the driver

Colleagues, 3 of 4 times this machine failed to boot, panicing somewhere in late kernel initialization phase (before /sbin/init is executed) I have serial console and KDB enabled, so can do experiments. Last two crashes: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x8 fault code = supervisor read data, page not present instruction pointer =

Hi there, I have been looking at a system which has the Intel ICH7 south bridge. Whenever I try to probe the SMBus on this system with 'smbmsg -p', I get a lot of status=41 timeout messages in dmesg from the ichsmb(4) driver. I have been given the addresses of the SMBus peripherals and have tried initiating reads to their register space directly using 'smbmsg', with the same

Hi, could anyone give recommendations (or share experience) regarding using ZFS: - FreeBSD 7-Stable (amd64 with 8GB RAM) + special tuning necessary (apart from increasing kernel memory to 1 or more GB for ZFS) - Samba 3.2 + ACLs possible directly under ZFS? + recommended compile options? - NFS - email (imap) - jails (I have seen some problems exist with using snaphots within

Hello, i'm experiencing periodic kernel panics on a server with FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE #0: Tue May 20 19:09:43 CEST 2008. My big problem is that the system is not performing memory dumping and/or automatic reoboot, it just stays there. Here' console output: em0: watchdog timeout -- resetting kernel trap 12 with interrupts disabled Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode cpuid = 0;

I have a couple of DVD drives (one drive, one burner) that used to play DVDs quite fine from 5.3 to somewhere in the 6.x branch. Nowadays I have to send them to PIO4 to play DVDs, because they'll just throw DMA not aligned errors around in UDMA33 or WDMA2 mode. Should someone be interested in this I'm willing to supply all necessary information, such as the exact drives, firmware

During installworld I get: cat /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/man/ncurses.3x > ncurses.3 sh /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/man/MKterminfo.sh /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/man/terminfo.head /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/include/Caps

Any progress here? Does anyone know if this will be fixed in 7.1 latest, or should we start looking for different backup solution (in this case I would suggest to remove dump from the source tree - having a backup tool that doesn't work is worse than having none). After upgrading we basically cannot backup our servers. Shouldn't this issue be on

Hi! I fully understand and second efforts on educating people how to configure BIND to be stong to attacks and keep them from using "query-source address" with "port" option but how about binding named to particular IP address when host has many of them? Using "query-source address" without "port" is the only solution (not speaking of jails here) and safe

I just installed a 6.4-PRERELEASE kernel and tried to boot. The boot failed with a message that my ACPI was blacklisted. I have had 'device acpi' in my kernel for some time now. The boot interruption is new behavior. Is this sort of change a good thing to put in UPDATING? Regards, Jason

Hi I'm having a problem with ipfw, I think. For some reason it denies packets randomly for example: PING 196.14.239.2 (196.14.239.2): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Permission denied ping: sendto: Permission denied 64 bytes from 196.14.239.2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=63 time=0.258 ms 64 bytes from 196.14.239.2: icmp_seq=3 ttl=63 time=0.233 ms 64 bytes from 196.14.239.2: icmp_seq=4 ttl=63

Hi, I have built a FreeBSD 7.0RC2 system to use both the serial and video consoles. I find that when I drop into single user mode (shutdown now) on the terminal connected to the box itself I do not see the single user mode prompt on the serial console terminal. Likewise, when I drop to single user mode on the serial console I do not see the single user prompt on the terminal connected to

Hi.? I have configured sshd in OpenBSD to require publickey authentication. I've tried configuring FreeBSD to do the same, but I can still login via keyboard authentication. Here are the options I have in my sshd_config: PasswordAuthentication no ChallengeResponseAuthentication no UsePAM no After setting those options I kill -HUP the sshd? process. Is there something simple I am missing?
