What are you using to dial to your 3g network? (I use wvdial, and love it)

I've seen this happen on my 3g network as well. It seems that the ISP
randomly updates the DNS to a broken one. So write down the DNSs when
it's actually working (cat /etc/resolv.conf) and make yourself a
little script that updates them back to the working DNSs here is mine
for example (adjust to your working DNSs):


# cat ./dnsdigitel

#!/bin/sh
echo "nameserver 204.59.152.208" > /etc/resolv.conf
echo "nameserver 57.73.127.195" >> /etc/resolv.conf

So when it stops resolving I just ./dnsdigitel and that's it. Of
course, this could be easily automated, etc. but it's a quick fix to
your problem. Now, the interesting this is that your ISP does exactly
the same as my ISP, it changes the DNS randomly to non-working ones,
curious.

Best,

There has been some discussion lately about possibly changing the defaults.
If you become faced with having to reinstall jot down your current partition
sizes and adjust manually making / larger.

Since it is full, if you intend to try and recover it will entail deleting
something. This could get tricky, especially if the new 'kernel' space is
what filled up. This would presuppose that the kernel.old area was already
written out successfully. If the machine will not boot successfully with the
new kernel it is imperative that kernel.old still be healthy in order to
recover. However, if the new kernel does actually boot, with the result
being that some modules are missing you may be able to delete the kernel.old
in order to buy space. Messing around with this can potentially be
problematic, for obvious reasons. A strong 'YMMV' is indicated here.

If you can get past that, you may be able to mitigate the / being too small.
Place STRIP= -s into /etc/make.conf and WITHOUT_PROFILE= true into
/etc/src.conf. The con of this is that you lose some debugging ability. The
pro is new kernels will now fit. I have two servers set up this way at home,
and one uses 91MB while the other uses 93MB of space. The 91MB one only has
a / of 200MB total, and is nearly half empty. Allows for rebuilding and
installing a new kernel without running out of space.

Take a look at http://wiki.freebsd.org/BuildingFreeBSDWithClang

I haven't tried it for a couple of months, at which point I ran into a
build problem I didn't have time to investigate. Will have another go
over the long weekend, I think!

No, it's not. It's actually turing-complete. I did "towers of hanoi"

I think all you have to do is select that slice and let sysinstall
(via fdisk) set it to a FreeBSD type file system and then go ahead
and install on it. That will wipe out everything previously in the
slice and install FreeBSD there. During install, tell it to install
the FreeBSD MBR.


There is some new problem with Win-7 boot manager that I haven't learned
about yet. MS puts some extra boot manager stuff in. I think how
to get around it is documented. You will have to look that up.

Subject: FreeBSD8.0 Firewall Script behaves much differently than 6.x
To: freebsd-...@freebsd.org
Message-ID: <201003311411....@dc.cis.okstate.edu>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Is there a proper way to reset firewall rules in
FreeBSD8.0 ? I just discovered that if one is remotely logged
in and makes a change in the firewall rules, it is a disastor to
do something like

sh /etc/[firewall_rules_script]

One could do that in FreeBSD6.x. When the rules flushed,
you lost your connection, but the script continued to execute
and the new rules were in effect immediately. Trying this same
reload in FreeBSD8.0, I knew something was horribly wrong when
everything just locked up. I logged on to a local console and ran

ipfw list

It had stopped right after the flush.

Doing the same command from a local or even a serial
console works fine and the new rules are installed.

Thanks and maybe I have been using the wrong technique
for reloading firewall rules all along.

I have just answered part of my own question. If you
background the process as in

sh /etc/rules.fw &

it works. You still get knocked off the remote connection but
the backgrounded process continues to run without a controlling
terminal and completes.

The only remaining part of the question is:

If one modifies the firewall rules and wants to make sure they
are good, is there a more correct way to safely reload them from
the script?

This situation has always existed. See the note for "-q" in the ipfw(8)
manual and note the firewall_quiet variable in the default rc.firewall
script. The most widely recommended approach is to run the script in a
screen(1) (or similar) session. Even just redirecting the output is
enough to let the script run through while still keeping any potential
error information

One possible approach might be to make a copy of your rules, edit that
and then do something like this in one session:

# sleep 300 && sh /etc/rules.fw &

And load the new rules from the new file in another:

# sh /etc/rules.fw.new &

Now, if you lock yourself out, you wait 5 minutes before the last,
presumably good, ruleset, gets reloaded and normality is restored. If
you don't get locked out, simply kill the sleep process (which is why
it's important to use && instead of ; between your commands), and move
the new ruleset to the original file name.

I use ppp (wvdial does not seem ported to FreeBSD, is it a Linux only

I don't think that is the problem, I've already tried this (use
opendns).

Today, when I installed samba from ports, libiconv-1.11_1 was added to

systems are able to connect just fine.

If I uninstall SAMBA and remove libiconv-1.11_1, I am able to use ssh
again.

libiconv-1.9.2_2 has several dependencies listed.

What is the best way to proceed?

Thanks,


Jay

The manpage sources are plain text files with text that uses formatting
macros from the groff_mdoc(7) macro collection. You can find sample
files for the style commonly used by the FreeBSD manpages in your
'/usr/share/examples/mdoc' directory.

keramida@kobe:/usr/share/examples/mdoc$ ls -ld *[0-9]
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel - 3550 18 Μαρ 01:55 example.1
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel - 7582 18 Μαρ 01:55 example.3
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel - 3302 18 Μαρ 01:55 example.4
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel - 7700 18 Μαρ 01:55 example.9
keramida@kobe:/usr/share/examples/mdoc$

Installed manpages can be found under '/usr/share/man/man?'. They are
usually compressed with gzip(1) to save some space, but you can extract
any manpage to a plain text file with gzip or zcat:

zcat /usr/share/man2/jail.2.gz | more

The source of a manpage commonly uses _many_ formatting macros from the
groff_mdoc(7) collection. You should probably print a copy of the
'groff_mdoc' manpage and keep it around for reference. Reading through
this printed copy of the manpage at least once will be useful too, as it
will help you understand how macro options work and you will have a good
idea of what features are available. Then you will be able to quickly
look in the printed reference copy for the features you need, because
you will know "they are there".

Hi,

If your DNS are changed, I think that your network card is configured in DHCP mode.
To dissallow DNS changes (in /etc/resolv.conf) by DHCP updates, you can add this line to /etc/dhclient.conf :
prepend domain-name-servers <DNS_IP_adress_1>,<DNS_IP_adresse_2>,<DNS_IP_adresse_3>;
After you must restart your network card and voil�.

Alexandre.

I used 32 MB for the cache size but I expect the reduced speed comes
about from the need to find and open a large number of files whereas
synchronising the mirror just does a sequential disk to disk copy at
block level.

Hello,
In my ports tree there is only one version of libiconv, and compiling samba doesn't ask about any other versions
(/usr/ports/converters/libiconv, version 1.13). Maybe you should update your ports?
Also, i do not see why should libiconv affect ssh[d]. What does your macos's ssh tell you when you're trying to connect to fbsd-machine?

FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Wed Mar 24 GENERIC i386.

Hi,

I kept this thread open while I tried some cameras myself and I can say
that all three cheapo web cams that I tried work.

I've now got
FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Wed Mar 24 11:51:43 GMT 2010 GENERIC i386
(note sources
were csupped a couple of weeks before)

video4bsd-kmod-0.1.3
libv4l-0.6.4
v4l_compat-1.0.20100113
webcamd-0.1.4
pwcview-1.4.1_2

loader.conf has
video4bsd_load="YES"

rc.conf
webcamd_enable="YES"

The webcam user needs write permissions on /dev/video0 - I still need to
set this up in devfs.rules.

Webcams I have are an ancient Logitech, some sort of Microsoft cam and
an ASDA Smart Value cam for �6 :)

I have a problem using any of the cameras with Skype which I will post
separately.

cheers

Chris

Hi,

I have my webcam setup and working and I can see stuff in pwcview. But
skype tells me 'no device found' for video.

I've tried various combinations of with/without webcamd and pwcview
running, also as root, _and_ restarting webcamd each time, but no joy.

Any suggestions very gratefully received.

thanks

Chris

Better if you write

supersede domain-name-servers <IP>

instead.
