While there is applicable information, based on your
description I do not believe this is a job the Handbook was ever
intended to address.

What is there in what you want to do that is specific to
FreeBSD? Based on an uninformed guess, it sounds like 90+ percent
of these tasks are UNIX-generic; what's left could easily vary with
your unique case and might be best handled to questions to targeted
mailing lists.

However, if someone _has_ done this having that on the record

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-2; format=flowed
Hi everybody,
I have a question regarding rs-232 under FreeBSD.
I need to write an application for FreeBSD to operate an industrial
controller via rs-232. The trick is that it should have very good long
term stability (reliably operation over years). It should be able to
detect and correct (e.g by reconfiguration of rs-232 port parameters)
when rs-232 hangs or changes its transmission parameters as a result of
electrical interference/disturbances etc. First thought is to simply
close and reopen rs-232 port every given time interval, so even if
something 'strange' happens the failure would be fixed after finite time
period. But maybe there is smarter way of doing that. Maybe some special
fault-tolerant rs-232 kernel drivers ?
Any help appreciated, maybe someone has other helpful advieces regarding
reliable rs-232 programming ini general ?
Thanks for all help and advices.
Best regards,
Greg

I would be grateful for clues on a fix.
Is this related to the php5-pcre port being moved into core php5?

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
A previous question to the List on how to get an IP
address from a host speicific URL yielded the helpful
responses of "host" and "dig." These (seemed to) work
fine. Well, just now I got a chance to try it out on a tiny
server I have at someone else's house, and on another
network.
I used telnet to connect to 68.204.xxx.xxx
it tells me I've connected to xxx.xxx.204.68.cfl.res.rr.com.
(backwards, right?), then I log in.
After user/pass entry, it says connected from "user-yyyyyyy.cab"
(replaced seemingly random name with "yyyyyyy" in case
it's not transient)
My external IP here is 24.110.nnn.nnn
The issue:
When I use either "host" or "dig" to give me the IP address
from "user-yyyyyyy.cab", they tell me: 208.68.zzz.zzz
(Ping gives the same.)
So, I'm still at a loss, I think, to know the originating IP.
Should a firewall rule blocking 208.68.zzz.zzz actually
operate against 24.110.nnn.nnn? I'd STILL like to know
the true source IP to be able to connect back to it.
TIA. Again, please respond directly to me (as well as to the
List) because I'm not subscribed.

Thanks. Obvious question, but just checking: Would uninstalling
php5-filter and php5-pcre (if installed) and then proceeding with
updating all other php5 ports have the same effect as updating these
ports as if they were standalone, as before?

If you are new to FreeBSD and other UNIX-like systems, you should not begin with
starting a business! Learn something about the OS first.
Install FreeBSD om your computer and experiment with it. Subscribe to the
freebsd-questions mailing list and read through the archives of that mailing
list. Install and configure typical server programs; apache, bind, postfix,
mysql. Learn about jail(8). Do read the handbook, because it does contain a
lot of useful information.

Personally, I learned first Linux and then FreeBSD by just installing and
using them. I think a lot of people start that way.
You can download the book "The Complete FreeBSD" from

If you have a hosting business, clients might expect support 24 hours a day, 7
days per week. No single person can manage that!

No, you have to a connection before you login. You want to *strongly*
consider using ssh instead of telnet. You may also be referring the format
of the DNS query result which known as

So, you are the guilty one. By that logic, every software should
assume some location, so that people can have fun with link farm
maintainance.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Hi:
I want my syslog to log remote nodes, in particular my access point and
router, which authenticates users against my freeradius server.
In /etc/rc.conf I've got:
syslogd_flags="-C -a 192.168.0.0/23 -a 172.16.0.0/23 -vv"
In /etc/syslog.conf I've got first the entries for the system, no
networked clients specified,
...
local0.* /var/log/radius.log
...
# Remote systems
+172.16.0.0/23
*.info /var/log/wlan.log
+192.168.0.254
*.info /var/log/router.log
Surprise, I've got my access point logs in the radius log file, not in
the wlan.log,
snip radius.log:
Apr 10 17:54:15 <local0.notice> ap airport 80211: Rotated TKIP group key.
Apr 10 18:02:19 <local0.notice> ap airport ntp: Clock synchronized to
network time server ntp.locolomo.org (adjusted -1 seconds).
Apr 10 18:43:11 <local0.info> alpha radiusd[79800]: Loaded virtual
server inner-tunnel
Apr 10 18:43:11 <local0.info> alpha radiusd[79800]: Loaded virtual
server <default>
The "ap" is the access point.
I haven't got anything in router.log and can't really figure where it
has ended up.
What's wrong with my syslog.conf?
Thanks, Erik

I tried once the same setup, but never got it working.
I ended up switching to syslog-ng (I know, probably not the answer
you're looking for, but with syslog-ng you can configure the way you
want it to be).

I suspect there are quite a few examples of BSD-specific C functions *in*
the FreeBSD kernel. I'm pretty sure this isn't what you meant, though,
so please clarify.

Hello,
The wireless nic on my laptop is the Intel WiFi Link 5100AGN. Is this card supported in FreeBSD as present?
I checked the FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE Hardware Notes (at
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.0R/hardware.html#WLAN), and I don't
see the Intel WiFi Link 5100AGN actually listed.
Looking at the online manpage for iwn, it is actually titled "Intel
Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN IEEE 802.11n driver", but then again, I also
noted that that manpage is timestamped April 13, 2008 and is tagged for
FreeBSD-7.2.
I'd some help, please.
Thanks.

S Roberts

Support for that device got MFCed to 8-STABLE a short time after
8.0-RELEASE.

Not sure what you're meaning here, but the collection of
libraries in FreeBSD's source tree (/usr/src/lib) contains
A LOT of C functions that you could use as examples...
For instance, if you're looking for those typical C functions
of the C library that are often used in introductory texts,
you want to look at libc, e.g. in:
/usr/src/lib/libc/stdlib
/usr/src/lib/libc/string
/usr/src/lib/libc/gen
(...)
Then, there are also non-library source files all over /usr/src,
that are full of C functions. ;-)
Of course, you could always install additional third-party
libraries, programs etc. manually or from ports if you need
more examples.

Looks interesting, and pretty light weight only requiring ncurses and
libpcap. I wonder how hard it'd be to compile it and get it running.

Did you try googling for "sample code"? I just did, and the results
contained several such websites.
Narrowing the search to "sample code c" or "sample code unix" yielded
even better results.
There are even some sites that you can use to search the vast body of
existing open-source code, to see how others have used (or implemented)
a given API.
No, I'm not going to name any specific sites. You now have enough of a
hint to find them on your own. ;-)

I've found this and other books by Mr. Lucas to be informative,

Hi all:
I'm running FBSD 8.0, amd64. After installing the mysql port: Mysql55-server
and mysql55-client I've attempted to start using mysql_safe --user=mysql.
It craps out and in the error log I find:
100410 7:25:36 InnoDB: Operating system error number 13 in a file operation.
InnoDB: The error means mysqld does not have the access rights to
InnoDB: the directory.
InnoDB: File name ./ibdata1
InnoDB: File operation call: 'create'.
InnoDB: Cannot continue operation.
I suspect incorrect permissions somewhere. The question is... Where? Does
anyone have any idea where it's trying to create ibdata1?
And on a slightly related note - attempts to build the mysql60-server port
rapidly dies with the error:
===> mysql-server-6.0.11 cannot install: unknown MySQL version: 60.
*** Error code 1
Anyone know what that's all about?
Thanks for any help or words of wisdom.
IHN,
Gene

Yes, I agree.
Another good book is Dru Lavigne's _The Best of FreeBSD Basics_.
I also like Dru's earlier book _BSD Hacks_.
It's not BSD-specific, but the _Unix Power Tools_ book from O'Reilly is
packed with lots of interesting tidbits.

Subject: Mixer Settings For Audacity
To: FreeBSD Questions <freebsd-...@freebsd.org>
Message-ID: <4BC12CD6...@joseph-a-nagy-jr.us>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
OK, I've read the mixer man page, the mic is set as recording source,
yet even with mic playback and (apparent) sensitivity to max, I barely
get anything recorded using Audacity. Am I missing something? Do I need
to use mixer -s =rec mic (I set it with mixer -S =rec, though it seems
either one does the same thing).
Mixer vol is currently set to 100:100
Mixer bass is currently set to 100:100
Mixer treble is currently set to 100:100
Mixer synth is currently set to 100:100
Mixer pcm is currently set to 100:100
Mixer speaker is currently set to 100:100
Mixer line is currently set to 100:100
Mixer mic is currently set to 100:100
Mixer cd is currently set to 100:100
Mixer igain is currently set to 100:100
Mixer ogain is currently set to 100:100
Mixer monitor is currently set to 100:100
Recording source: mic
The above is my playback options for the mixer. I'd like to adjust the
sensitivity for the mic when recording and not just for playback
(ideally I'd like playback to be zero - or as close to it as possible -
and recording be at max).
I've found a few posts on the subject[0][1] but nothing really dealing
with my problem (the closest they get is Audacity, but both are written
from a Windoze POV), though I did get some good ideas from the first one
(setting up a project with some default tags and the like).
I'll record, with the mic at 100% for playback, a sample and toss it up
on my website[2] in wav format so you folks can hear what I'm dealing
with. Any suggestions would be appreciated (I'm sure it's something
rather obvious I'm missing, it usually is (I've got my snakebite kit
ready, jic)). The recording was made with the mic right in front of the
mouth, with me talking at normal volume (which is pretty loud according
to most folks I know) and playback sensitivity at max. The audio was
recorded at 44100Hz, 32-bit floating point and straight-exported as a
wav. Reported size (by web server) is 1.5MB (YMMV).

It is probably better to add:
mysql_enable="YES"
to /etc/rc.conf and then run
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start
which amongst other things will run mysql_safe.

With a new installation you need to run
# mysql_install_db --ldata=/var/db/mysql
to create the data base structure, and
# chown -R mysql:mysql /var/db/mysql
If /var/db/mysql/mysql does not already exist then
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start
should execute these commands for you.
You don't need to run mysql_safe from the command line.
(My systems are i386 but I don't expect that this will make any
difference)

Hmm, seem to reacall discarding mysql60 for some reason but
I think not for the error you experienced.

Despite the steadily degrading nature of the builtins, they are working
for the keyboard with speakers on the card and so far (aside from some
initial issues) they seem to be working just fine. For now. I'm still
getting a new pair of speakers. Now I'm not so keen on getting some of
those USB gadgets from ThinkGeek. ):

One of my issues was that this jail had 192.168.49.7 and amavisd didn't like
it, as soon as I change the settings above and change my jail to 127.0.0.3
everything start working.
