Hi list, I've the strange problem, that after some time of inactivity a share is being disconnected. This leads to a red 'X' in the Workplace's list of connected drives. When opening a disconnected drive, the drive is being reconnected. BUT: This has a very fatal side-effect: When f.e. an MS-Access database is open and the user does not use this db, the share is also being

I am looking for some solution, working with Samba preferably, which would allow multiple users to work on one document. This means that if a user makes a change to the document, a previous version of that document is saved somewhere else. For example, user A opens a document (rw - read/write, ro - read-only document): rw \\server\share\document.txt User makes some changes, and saves it to

Hi there, When I do a make buildworld and try to do a make release it will fail telling that it needs the CVSROOT directory. I do cvsup /etc/cvs-supfile and receive nothing ; # /etc/cvs-supfile *default host=cvsup3.nl.freebsd.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_8 *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress cvsroot-all If I remove

Hi folks, I'm moving a server over to amd64 in the next week or so and I'm preparing the RAID1 disk set with the 64 bit ports as we speak. I came across a nasty little bug whilst doing so. Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-K8U with a ULi SATA controller and AR0 set up as a RAID1 array using FreeBSD pseudo-RAID (ULi's metadata isn't supported). So far, so good. Then into sysinstall

Hi list, After a few updates from 4.4 through 4.8 using csvup, I want to update /stand/sysinstall et al in case of emergency. cd /usr/src/release/sysinstall && make all install works as expected, but only updates the stand binary. Allthough it's only a single binary, how do I build and install boot_crunch to /stand without building and figuring out a complete release-build? And, as

I'm cvsupping 4.8-STABLE to 4.8-STABLE. The cvsup run finished about 23:32 on 7/13. After make buildworld, make buildkernel, mergemaster -p, make installworld, and mergemaster -v, I do (per mostgraveconcern, RIP): cd /usr/src/release/sysinstall make clean make all install The 'make all install' gives errors: In file included from keymap.c:40: keymap.h:4436: `keymap_be_iso'

Hello, I have been struglling with sysinstall, attempting to make it handle the geometry of some large SATA drives. After a lot of effort I decided to stop suffering and modified the program in order to circumvent the outdated limit of 65535 cylinders (see attached patch). I'm thinking about submitting a PR with a change request but I'd like to get some additional opinions first. I did

Hello there! Here's my story, hopefully some of you won't follow my steps and avoid some troubles :) Yesterday I've decided that's about time to test zfs functionality on my home server PC (i386 FreeBSD 7.1-pre) . A couple of weeks ago I bought new desktop PC (with SATA), so I had a bunch of PATA disks from old one to use in server. Lucky me - there was 3 HDD at size 40GB -

I've got a new supermicro server I'm trying to get FreeBSD on. It uses the Intel c602 chipset, and it's my understanding that support for that chipset (c60X) was recently added via the isci driver. Ok, great, that explains why 8.2-R and 9.0-R didn't see the drives. So, I grabbed the memstick image of 8.3-RELEASE that is on the ftp server, booted it up, and sure enough, as the

I've built RELENG_4 isos no problem, is there a trick to building the RELENG_4_8 isos? I am building the 'miniinst' disk - that is, with the release, docs, and a port tree, but no ports. This is so I can do a fresh install without having to update the world... I am using a script that looks like this... #!/bin/sh rm -rf /usr/obj cd /usr/src make -DNOCLEAN world kernel cd

Hi, i've set up a network boot environment for FreeBSD with pxelinux. I used FreeBSD's pxeboot, renamed it to /pxe/freebsd.0, copied the /boot directory from CD to /pxe/boot and added the line >vfs.root.mountfrom="ufs:/dev/md0c"< to loader.conf. This works so far. Now i want to add possibilities to boot other systems, too. For this i want to create a directory under

This patch set should make it easier to maintain PV-GRUB2 installations. The general idea is based on discussions I had with Xen developers (mainly Ian Jackson) at the Ubuntu Developer Summit in May 2011; though I never did manage to get the core port done and Vladimir beat me to that, I think the configuration approach we discussed there is still valid and useful. The idea here is that people

Hi, list. I'm interested in coda6 on freebsd6, but I can't repair it, with my professional skills. If somebody write patch I will test it with pleasure. I try kern/80031. This patch can't be apply and look like comitted (I look in .rej files). WBR Dmitriy
