I am running Debian-Sparc on a Classic, it works quite good. It also ran well under OpenBSD.

There is still Solaris 8 which has full support for sun4m.

My Sun SparcClassic even ran Solaris 9, but seriously, I couldn't find too much sense in running Solaris 9 on a 50MHz box - these things also have quite small drives. I mean running OpenBSD on it is still better than throwing it away.

I am trying to figure out if my problem is that I can't compile stuff because it is an SS10, if I screwed up and left out some important package on the initial install, or if I simply misconfigured something when I set up pkg- get. All the instructions on the how-to page worked - I just have trouble installing the big packages. (Perhaps I need to add something to make my SS10 aware of 64 bit code so that it doesn't use it or something???) Good now I remember I get message saying patch 111712 64 Bit Share library Patch for C++ not installed and some other patches i.e. 111712, 111722, 113902, 114641. But all the patches that I can install were installed, so I've no idea what's going on. The problem when following the install instructions on the blastwave how-to page is that it all goes by way too fast for me to notice errors. I am running under CDE -- which runs fine - but would like to see if I can get the others working. I am trying to install - firefox as I write. First, I want to point out that this is a really nice Sparc 10 - cobbled together from many SS10's. It has close to 18GB of SCSI disk and the two Ross HyperSparc 100MHz processors. Sun4M is supported for Solaris 9, Sun4m is not supported with Solaris 10. I don't believe there are any other distros that really support 32 bit SparcStations any better that Sun supports Solaris 9.

The firefox package has a shared lib that requires at least a UltraSPARC to run: # pwd /opt/csw/libexec/firefox # file libfreebl_hybrid_3.so libfreebl_hybrid_3.so: ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC32PLUS Version 1, V8+ Required, UltraSPARC1 Extensions Required, dynamically linked, stripped > > Good now I remember I get message saying patch 111712 64 Bit Share > library Patch for C++ not installed and some other patches i.e. > 111712, 111722, 113902, 114641.

Its been a while since I have done a install on a sun4m, but I think the installer skips asking to install 64bit packages.

So I guess these are more Solaris than Blastwave questions, but is there an easy way to rerun the installer or ad the 64bit packages so I can see if it helps ?- BTW, it is no big deal to reinstall from scratch - maybe I'll even figure out how to get the paths right in CDE.

Cool, now I know: (1) sun4m is supported through 9/2004 release of Solaris 9. (2) From that document, in some manner the libraries should work for both 32 and 64 bit sparc architectures. (3) This probably does not apply to everything in the CSW archives. So my plan is: Download a fresh set of iso images and then reinstall Solaris 9, add patches that are needed, and then get CSW working again. While everything from sun looks like it will support sun4m 32 bit architecture if they release it for Solaris 9 (or 8 or 7), since if it was only 64 bit I imagine they would simply say it's for Solaris 10, I suspect I would have to figure out how to build some apps manually with 32 bit libraries or live without.

Vaughan Ball Aerospace (303) 939-6386 From pfelecan at blastwave.org Sun Jun 5 09:27:08 2005 From: pfelecan at blastwave.org (Peter FELECAN) Date: Sun, 05 Jun 2005 09:27:08 +0200 Subject: [csw-users] The GNU Compiler Collection 3.4.4 is released as Blastwave packages Message-ID: <867jh9tgab.fsf@mailhost.foo.org> GNU Compiler Collection 3.4.4 This is the branch 3 of the GNU compiler suite. The branch 3 is more and more used. However, the branch 2 is still used and sometimes preferred for some products. If you are in this situation look for the gcc2 related packages. The salient point of this release are: 1. The branch 3 compiler is installed in /opt/csw/gcc3, similar to the branch 2, and the rt packages install the versioned shared libraries in /opt/csw/lib 2. There is a fixinclude stage executed in the postinstall script for gcc3core. [see point 7 in the notes at the end of this document] 3. The granularity of the packages is identical to that of the FSF, i.e. gcc3core, gcc3g++, gcc3g77, gcc3java, gcc3objc, gcc3ada and each one has a corresponding runtime package, e.g. gcc3corert; a similar granularity can be found in the branch 2. gcc3core C compiler gcc3g++ C++ compiler gcc3g77 FORTRAN compiler gcc3java Java compiler gcc3objc Objective C compiler gcc3ada Ada Compiler 4. The packages inter-dependencies are as follows: gcc3corert: gcc3core: \ gcc3corert gcc3g++rt: \ gcc3corert gcc3g++: \ gcc3core \ gcc3g++rt gcc3g77rt: \ gcc3corert gcc3g77: \ gcc3core \ gcc3g77rt gcc3javart: \ gcc3corert \ gcc3g++rt gcc3java: \ gcc3core gcc3javart gcc3objcrt: \ gcc3corert gcc3objc: \ gcc3core \ gcc3objcrt gcc3adart:\ gcc3corert gcc3ada: \ gcc3core \ gcc3adart 5. All the packages were tested using the latest testsuite (3.4.4), with the exception of Java which doesn't have a test set, on Solaris SPARC 9 and Solaris Intel 8 It should also be noted that: 1. /opt/csw has precedence in searching headers, libraries and dynamic libraries. 2. /usr/local/include or /opt/sfw/include are not part of the default include search path. 3. There is no dependency on 4. -mcpu=v8 is the default on SPARC (instead of -mcpu=v7) 5. Each package has its documentation in a specific directory in /opt/csw/share/doc, the common documents are linked to the gcc3core directory, and additionally contains the documentation in PDF. 6. The replacement of the old packaging is done through 2 stub packages: gcc3rt and gcc3 having the following dependances: gcc3rt: \ gcc3corert \ gcc3g++rt gcc3: \ gcc3core \ gcc3g++ This means that when upgrading from a revision older thant 3.4.3, only the C and C++ compilers are left on the system (previously Objective-C, FORTRAN, Java and Ada were in one package for the run-time, gcc3rt, Objective-C, FORTRAN and Ada were in a compiler suite package gcc3 and Java was in a separate compiler package gcc3java). 7. The includes need fixing each time that the system includes are updated. Consequently, there is the possibility to fix the system includes when needed by running the following script, as root: /opt/csw/gcc3/bin/mkheaders 8. The documentation in info format is stored in /opt/csw/gcc4/info. If you wish to access it from info aware tools, add this directory to the INFOPATH environment variable. For example, for a bash user: export INFOPATH=/opt/csw/info:/opt/csw/gcc4/info -- Peter From jeremyol at cesa.office.xerox.com Mon Jun 6 19:07:26 2005 From: jeremyol at cesa.office.xerox.com (Jeremy O'Leary) Date: Mon, 06 Jun 2005 10:07:26 -0700 Subject: [csw-users] dcopserver won't start Message-ID: <1118077646.10567.1.camel@camaro.cesa.opbu.xerox.com> Hi all, I have been using KDE 3.3.1 for several months and after the latest reboot the dcopserver won't start and thus KDE won't start, any suggestions?

Look in: http://blastwave.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/oldpkgs/ This is not a supported way of running, because the dependancy is broken when you install odd versions. The fundamental problem is Blastwave should not issue packages that don't work and we are currently working to address the problem via changes to the stable archive. James.

The message is the one sh gives when asked to execute something that does not exist or that it doesn't have permission to read. I have seen a similar error on package install but that was caused by the file permissions not being all+read. This isn't the case here as checkinstall is 644. Note that for testing this you can directly install common with: # pkg-get -i common Perhaps truss output of pkgadd is needed. First download the package and uncompress: $ wget ftp://mirrors.sunsite.dk/mirrors/csw/unstable/sparc/5.8/common-1.4.2-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz $ gunzip common-1.4.2-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz Then truss: # truss -f pkgadd -d common-1.4.2-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg all Send the out directly to me or post via a URL; I suspect the whole user list doesn't want to see it. I can think of a workaround: download, pkgtrans, run checkinstall manually, remove checkinstall from package, repackage, pkgadd. However, I'd really like to understand the original error, anyone else care to contribute? James.

Sorry, not any help here. Damjan is the sasl maintainer. I do not know if he monitors this list. If you do not get an answer from the list, I would send him a message from the CSWsasl web page.

I've not used gcc2 for anything for ages. Some old software might not work with a newer compiler and so gcc2 might be the solution. I use gcc4 now - so far so good.

Should bug reports > be filed. Certainly supported and I use courier_imap and fam all of the time. True, Solaris 10 may have been built after the last CSWfam package, but it works fine. Occasionally, a bit of tweaking may be needed for Solaris 10. Feel free to create a bug report if you think that something should be considered. The following applies to the host for courier_imap. 1) After installing FAM, you should have a line like the following in /etc/inetd.conf: # fam, the File Alteration Monitor, http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/ sgi_fam/1-2 stream rpc/tcp wait root //opt/csw/bin/fam fam The comments in /etc/inetd.conf tell you what to do, i.e., run inetconv. 2) /etc/rpc needs a line as follows and may be put there by the CSWfam install: [root at sws602 ~]# grep fam /etc/rpc sgi_fam 391002 famd #File Alteration Monitor 3) Check that fam is available as follows. If not, send sighup to the inetd process. [root at sws602 ~]# rpcinfo -p |grep fam 391002 1 tcp 32808 sgi_fam 391002 2 tcp 32808 sgi_fam 4) Additionally, you should have the following enabled and online: [root at sws602 ~]# inetadm |grep fam enabled online svc:/network/sgi_fam_1-2/rpc_tcp:default 5) Restart courier_imap and verify that all is ok.

Unix has always been great because it used flat text files for configuration which could easily be modified by perl scripts and the like. I think Sun's long-term plan is to lock customers into their N1 and SunMC software for provisioning, by simply making it so you can't manually edit config files any more. Now they want to make Solaris administration like Windows administration where you simply click "Next" 20 times on a wizard and you're done. Expect to see Solaris certifications given out like cracker jacks prizes and a lot of junior admins appear that have never seen a command line. Then all of our jobs can be exported to India and they won't have to hire any "high-priced" Unix sysadmins anymore.

You have still the possibility to edit the init scripts and config files. For example look at the JES products. They have a nice web-interface but you can still edit the configuration files. It was never a problem there. Sun is moving forward. Otherwise Solaris will be software museum.

I don't know about a fast way, you need a clever way that knows if a package was installed for just gnome or supports another package too. Instead try this simple slow way: rm -f remove add pkginfo | grep CSW | while read ignore package software description do [[ $package = 'CSWgs' ]] || continue if ! pkgchk $package 2> /dev/null ; then echo "pkgrm $package" >> remove echo "pkg-get -u $software" >> add fi done sh remove sh add rm remove add I suggest doing the removes before doing the installs so when pkg-get looks for a package it's not just installed but checked. pkgchk gives false positives on some packages but just accept these and let them reinstall.

In order to get a decent test to see if understood things right, I grabbed the Gnu Common Lisp Tarball from http://directory.fsf.org/GNU/GCL.html and decided to build it. I did get it working though I have to add other components TCL/Tk, and TeX, for starters, to get the full build. (BTW, this is not a trivial program to complie) I did have a few problems. The first is I'm not really sure what "good practice" is when setting this stuff up. I found that the configure program was checking for tons of programs that were installed when I installed gcc3, but being gnu versions they all had 'g' in front of the name, that the configure script was looking for. I simply created symlinks for these files as needed so ld would be found in /opt/csw/bin and gld would be invoked. It aslo becam clear to me that I'm not building optimal code, because I need to pass options to the compiler telling it that I'm using two ROSS HyperSparc CPUs. I have no idea either what the options are or how to indicate this. For some reason the How-To on getting directories and paths, etc. don't seem to work for me. While I have been able to run FireFox after reinstalling with Solaris 9 distro from 9/04, which also gave me a useable gnome, I can not build the alternative Window Managers. KDE shows up as an option, but I wind up back at the sign in screen after two minuters when I try to use it. Also, for some reason, I can not get my PATH, and MANPATH etc. set following the How-To, which I figure is somehow related to having to use the Sun versions of CDE and gnome. As this machine is slower than in should be - probably because I don't have code built for the twin CPUs optimized to the machine, I hsould probably rebuild most programs. So I would appreciate it if people want to tell me what I did wrong, or simply suggest, better ways to set up gcc3 and also, how on earth I could find help on figuring out how to take advantage of my decade old high-end configuration. While most people who dealt with them are probably still alive I doubt they would care. (I figure the twin HyperSparc set up should run at least as fast as a 500MHz celeron - and for morst apps, it's not). And needless to say until I'm trying to rebuild some of the apps from source, I should really be asking questions on the timeshifted sun users list (if one exists).

No, few programs take advantage of more than one CPUs. It's not a compiler issue. You will gain mainly when 2 programs run at the same time.

Hi, Robert I was going to make a post to see you had gotten an answer. I am still having slapd problems here, as well, and I think that it related to the messages regarding 'auxpropfunc error' and 'sql_select option missing'. Damjan has been very helpful in that past. However, he does have times where he does not have easy access to the net. That is probably what is happening. Now, I need to get this sorted for a current project. I will let you know if I find some answers.

Hi, Robert Did you have a sasldb2 database before the last update to CSWsasl? If so, do you have a backup copy? I have to leave, so we can get into this more tomorrow, but I remember Damjan saying something about a directory that has to have a group of sasl. Not sure about the file, but it may also need to have group sasl assigned. Use either your backup copy or create a new sasldb2 database with `/opt/csw/sbin/saslpasswd2 -f /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2/sasldb2 -c user` Does this work for you? I think you said that you were wanting sasl2 with sendmail. If true, a sendmail .mc file may need to be changed to point to the new sasldb2 location. Also, do you have a file named /opt/csw/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf? If true, post a cat of the file. I can look into this more tomorrow.

Here's what it took: # mv /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2~ # /opt/csw/sbin/saslpasswd2 -f /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 -c -u machine.domain.tld userid Notes: + sendmail seems to need the berkeleydb4 password database to reside at /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2, and saslpasswd2 doesn't put it there by default anymore. (Obviously, it can't since this is a directory now.) However, if the directory is elided, saslpasswd2 can be forced to create the database there by using the -f argument. + The new version of SASL does not default the realm ('-u') to the full machine name. Instead, it simply inserts the hostname without any domain appended. But this seems to be required, and can be forced by using the '-u' argument to specify it in toto. Once I did these two things (and then set up all the other normal AUTH things to make sendmail correctly), it all started working. I have no idea what problems removing the /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 directory will create for other users of SASL.

The addition of krb5 to the SASL plugins may be the reason that you need to specify the realm. Damjan needs to respond on changing the package's /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 directory back to a file, as it was in the previous package version. Having the directory defined with group sasl was important to Damjan. I will see if I can find out more details on this. It was my understanding that if a process is not owned by root and uses the SASL database, then that process owner should be added to the sasl group. For sendmail, the sm-mta process is owned by root. I am not sure if the submission process uses SASL, which is owned by smmsp.

My Sun SparcClassic even ran Solaris 9, but seriously, I couldn't find too much sense in running Solaris 9 on a 50MHz box - these things also have quite small drives. I mean running OpenBSD on it is still better than throwing it away.

I am trying to figure out if my problem is that I can't compile stuff because it is an SS10, if I screwed up and left out some important package on the initial install, or if I simply misconfigured something when I set up pkg- get. All the instructions on the how-to page worked - I just have trouble installing the big packages. (Perhaps I need to add something to make my SS10 aware of 64 bit code so that it doesn't use it or something???) Good now I remember I get message saying patch 111712 64 Bit Share library Patch for C++ not installed and some other patches i.e. 111712, 111722, 113902, 114641. But all the patches that I can install were installed, so I've no idea what's going on. The problem when following the install instructions on the blastwave how-to page is that it all goes by way too fast for me to notice errors. I am running under CDE -- which runs fine - but would like to see if I can get the others working. I am trying to install - firefox as I write. First, I want to point out that this is a really nice Sparc 10 - cobbled together from many SS10's. It has close to 18GB of SCSI disk and the two Ross HyperSparc 100MHz processors. Sun4M is supported for Solaris 9, Sun4m is not supported with Solaris 10. I don't believe there are any other distros that really support 32 bit SparcStations any better that Sun supports Solaris 9.

The firefox package has a shared lib that requires at least a UltraSPARC to run: # pwd /opt/csw/libexec/firefox # file libfreebl_hybrid_3.so libfreebl_hybrid_3.so: ELF 32-bit MSB dynamic lib SPARC32PLUS Version 1, V8+ Required, UltraSPARC1 Extensions Required, dynamically linked, stripped > > Good now I remember I get message saying patch 111712 64 Bit Share > library Patch for C++ not installed and some other patches i.e. > 111712, 111722, 113902, 114641.

Its been a while since I have done a install on a sun4m, but I think the installer skips asking to install 64bit packages.

Cool, now I know: (1) sun4m is supported through 9/2004 release of Solaris 9. (2) From that document, in some manner the libraries should work for both 32 and 64 bit sparc architectures. (3) This probably does not apply to everything in the CSW archives. So my plan is: Download a fresh set of iso images and then reinstall Solaris 9, add patches that are needed, and then get CSW working again. While everything from sun looks like it will support sun4m 32 bit architecture if they release it for Solaris 9 (or 8 or 7), since if it was only 64 bit I imagine they would simply say it's for Solaris 10, I suspect I would have to figure out how to build some apps manually with 32 bit libraries or live without.

Vaughan Ball Aerospace (303) 939-6386 From pfelecan at blastwave.org Sun Jun 5 09:27:08 2005 From: pfelecan at blastwave.org (Peter FELECAN) Date: Sun, 05 Jun 2005 09:27:08 +0200 Subject: [csw-users] The GNU Compiler Collection 3.4.4 is released as Blastwave packages Message-ID: <867jh9tgab.fsf@mailhost.foo.org> GNU Compiler Collection 3.4.4 This is the branch 3 of the GNU compiler suite. The branch 3 is more and more used. However, the branch 2 is still used and sometimes preferred for some products. If you are in this situation look for the gcc2 related packages. The salient point of this release are: 1. The branch 3 compiler is installed in /opt/csw/gcc3, similar to the branch 2, and the rt packages install the versioned shared libraries in /opt/csw/lib 2. There is a fixinclude stage executed in the postinstall script for gcc3core. [see point 7 in the notes at the end of this document] 3. The granularity of the packages is identical to that of the FSF, i.e. gcc3core, gcc3g++, gcc3g77, gcc3java, gcc3objc, gcc3ada and each one has a corresponding runtime package, e.g. gcc3corert; a similar granularity can be found in the branch 2. gcc3core C compiler gcc3g++ C++ compiler gcc3g77 FORTRAN compiler gcc3java Java compiler gcc3objc Objective C compiler gcc3ada Ada Compiler 4. The packages inter-dependencies are as follows: gcc3corert: gcc3core: \ gcc3corert gcc3g++rt: \ gcc3corert gcc3g++: \ gcc3core \ gcc3g++rt gcc3g77rt: \ gcc3corert gcc3g77: \ gcc3core \ gcc3g77rt gcc3javart: \ gcc3corert \ gcc3g++rt gcc3java: \ gcc3core gcc3javart gcc3objcrt: \ gcc3corert gcc3objc: \ gcc3core \ gcc3objcrt gcc3adart:\ gcc3corert gcc3ada: \ gcc3core \ gcc3adart 5. All the packages were tested using the latest testsuite (3.4.4), with the exception of Java which doesn't have a test set, on Solaris SPARC 9 and Solaris Intel 8 It should also be noted that: 1. /opt/csw has precedence in searching headers, libraries and dynamic libraries. 2. /usr/local/include or /opt/sfw/include are not part of the default include search path. 3. There is no dependency on 4. -mcpu=v8 is the default on SPARC (instead of -mcpu=v7) 5. Each package has its documentation in a specific directory in /opt/csw/share/doc, the common documents are linked to the gcc3core directory, and additionally contains the documentation in PDF. 6. The replacement of the old packaging is done through 2 stub packages: gcc3rt and gcc3 having the following dependances: gcc3rt: \ gcc3corert \ gcc3g++rt gcc3: \ gcc3core \ gcc3g++ This means that when upgrading from a revision older thant 3.4.3, only the C and C++ compilers are left on the system (previously Objective-C, FORTRAN, Java and Ada were in one package for the run-time, gcc3rt, Objective-C, FORTRAN and Ada were in a compiler suite package gcc3 and Java was in a separate compiler package gcc3java). 7. The includes need fixing each time that the system includes are updated. Consequently, there is the possibility to fix the system includes when needed by running the following script, as root: /opt/csw/gcc3/bin/mkheaders 8. The documentation in info format is stored in /opt/csw/gcc4/info. If you wish to access it from info aware tools, add this directory to the INFOPATH environment variable. For example, for a bash user: export INFOPATH=/opt/csw/info:/opt/csw/gcc4/info -- Peter From jeremyol at cesa.office.xerox.com Mon Jun 6 19:07:26 2005 From: jeremyol at cesa.office.xerox.com (Jeremy O'Leary) Date: Mon, 06 Jun 2005 10:07:26 -0700 Subject: [csw-users] dcopserver won't start Message-ID: <1118077646.10567.1.camel@camaro.cesa.opbu.xerox.com> Hi all, I have been using KDE 3.3.1 for several months and after the latest reboot the dcopserver won't start and thus KDE won't start, any suggestions?

Look in: http://blastwave.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/oldpkgs/ This is not a supported way of running, because the dependancy is broken when you install odd versions. The fundamental problem is Blastwave should not issue packages that don't work and we are currently working to address the problem via changes to the stable archive. James.

The message is the one sh gives when asked to execute something that does not exist or that it doesn't have permission to read. I have seen a similar error on package install but that was caused by the file permissions not being all+read. This isn't the case here as checkinstall is 644. Note that for testing this you can directly install common with: # pkg-get -i common Perhaps truss output of pkgadd is needed. First download the package and uncompress: $ wget ftp://mirrors.sunsite.dk/mirrors/csw/unstable/sparc/5.8/common-1.4.2-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz $ gunzip common-1.4.2-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz Then truss: # truss -f pkgadd -d common-1.4.2-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg all Send the out directly to me or post via a URL; I suspect the whole user list doesn't want to see it. I can think of a workaround: download, pkgtrans, run checkinstall manually, remove checkinstall from package, repackage, pkgadd. However, I'd really like to understand the original error, anyone else care to contribute? James.

It was due to incorrect Display naming in some obscure file. I have 2 displays, and if I remember correctly, gnome was looking for displays 0 and 1, while they were named 1 and 2. Try logging in as a different user. I had the same problem, but as soon as I logged in a root, or another user, it came up fine.

More likely they simply openned the component part of the Apple Remote Desktop to support VNC. It seems to work fine with PC viewers, like TightVNC, and with Mac viewers like Chicken of the VNC. I donwloaded and installed vncviewer and when I run it it start up and then I get a message "zlib inflate ran out of space' -- something like that I don't have the exact message. Vncviewer seems to work well with TightVNC servers, the only others I have tried it with. Vncviewer works with the OSXVNC server, that I installed before OSX started providing one.

Sorry, not any help here. Damjan is the sasl maintainer. I do not know if he monitors this list. If you do not get an answer from the list, I would send him a message from the CSWsasl web page.

I've not used gcc2 for anything for ages. Some old software might not work with a newer compiler and so gcc2 might be the solution. I use gcc4 now - so far so good.

Should bug reports > be filed. Certainly supported and I use courier_imap and fam all of the time. True, Solaris 10 may have been built after the last CSWfam package, but it works fine. Occasionally, a bit of tweaking may be needed for Solaris 10. Feel free to create a bug report if you think that something should be considered. The following applies to the host for courier_imap. 1) After installing FAM, you should have a line like the following in /etc/inetd.conf: # fam, the File Alteration Monitor, http://oss.sgi.com/projects/fam/ sgi_fam/1-2 stream rpc/tcp wait root //opt/csw/bin/fam fam The comments in /etc/inetd.conf tell you what to do, i.e., run inetconv. 2) /etc/rpc needs a line as follows and may be put there by the CSWfam install: [root at sws602 ~]# grep fam /etc/rpc sgi_fam 391002 famd #File Alteration Monitor 3) Check that fam is available as follows. If not, send sighup to the inetd process. [root at sws602 ~]# rpcinfo -p |grep fam 391002 1 tcp 32808 sgi_fam 391002 2 tcp 32808 sgi_fam 4) Additionally, you should have the following enabled and online: [root at sws602 ~]# inetadm |grep fam enabled online svc:/network/sgi_fam_1-2/rpc_tcp:default 5) Restart courier_imap and verify that all is ok.

You have still the possibility to edit the init scripts and config files. For example look at the JES products. They have a nice web-interface but you can still edit the configuration files. It was never a problem there. Sun is moving forward. Otherwise Solaris will be software museum.

I don't know about a fast way, you need a clever way that knows if a package was installed for just gnome or supports another package too. Instead try this simple slow way: rm -f remove add pkginfo | grep CSW | while read ignore package software description do [[ $package = 'CSWgs' ]] || continue if ! pkgchk $package 2> /dev/null ; then echo "pkgrm $package" >> remove echo "pkg-get -u $software" >> add fi done sh remove sh add rm remove add I suggest doing the removes before doing the installs so when pkg-get looks for a package it's not just installed but checked. pkgchk gives false positives on some packages but just accept these and let them reinstall. Take appropriate action if CSWwget or CSWpkgget are in the remove list.

In order to get a decent test to see if understood things right, I grabbed the Gnu Common Lisp Tarball from http://directory.fsf.org/GNU/GCL.html and decided to build it. I did get it working though I have to add other components TCL/Tk, and TeX, for starters, to get the full build. (BTW, this is not a trivial program to complie) I did have a few problems. The first is I'm not really sure what "good practice" is when setting this stuff up. I found that the configure program was checking for tons of programs that were installed when I installed gcc3, but being gnu versions they all had 'g' in front of the name, that the configure script was looking for. I simply created symlinks for these files as needed so ld would be found in /opt/csw/bin and gld would be invoked. It aslo becam clear to me that I'm not building optimal code, because I need to pass options to the compiler telling it that I'm using two ROSS HyperSparc CPUs. I have no idea either what the options are or how to indicate this. For some reason the How-To on getting directories and paths, etc. don't seem to work for me. While I have been able to run FireFox after reinstalling with Solaris 9 distro from 9/04, which also gave me a useable gnome, I can not build the alternative Window Managers. KDE shows up as an option, but I wind up back at the sign in screen after two minuters when I try to use it. Also, for some reason, I can not get my PATH, and MANPATH etc. set following the How-To, which I figure is somehow related to having to use the Sun versions of CDE and gnome. As this machine is slower than in should be - probably because I don't have code built for the twin CPUs optimized to the machine, I hsould probably rebuild most programs. So I would appreciate it if people want to tell me what I did wrong, or simply suggest, better ways to set up gcc3 and also, how on earth I could find help on figuring out how to take advantage of my decade old high-end configuration. While most people who dealt with them are probably still alive I doubt they would care. (I figure the twin HyperSparc set up should run at least as fast as a 500MHz celeron - and for morst apps, it's not). And needless to say until I'm trying to rebuild some of the apps from source, I should really be asking questions on the timeshifted sun users list (if one exists).

No, few programs take advantage of more than one CPUs. It's not a compiler issue. You will gain mainly when 2 programs run at the same time.

Hi, Robert I was going to make a post to see you had gotten an answer. I am still having slapd problems here, as well, and I think that it related to the messages regarding 'auxpropfunc error' and 'sql_select option missing'. Damjan has been very helpful in that past. However, he does have times where he does not have easy access to the net. That is probably what is happening. Now, I need to get this sorted for a current project. I will let you know if I find some answers.

Hi, Robert Did you have a sasldb2 database before the last update to CSWsasl? If so, do you have a backup copy? I have to leave, so we can get into this more tomorrow, but I remember Damjan saying something about a directory that has to have a group of sasl. Not sure about the file, but it may also need to have group sasl assigned. Use either your backup copy or create a new sasldb2 database with `/opt/csw/sbin/saslpasswd2 -f /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2/sasldb2 -c user` Does this work for you? I think you said that you were wanting sasl2 with sendmail. If true, a sendmail .mc file may need to be changed to point to the new sasldb2 location. Also, do you have a file named /opt/csw/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf? If true, post a cat of the file. I can look into this more tomorrow.

Here's what it took: # mv /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2~ # /opt/csw/sbin/saslpasswd2 -f /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 -c -u machine.domain.tld userid Notes: + sendmail seems to need the berkeleydb4 password database to reside at /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2, and saslpasswd2 doesn't put it there by default anymore. (Obviously, it can't since this is a directory now.) However, if the directory is elided, saslpasswd2 can be forced to create the database there by using the -f argument. + The new version of SASL does not default the realm ('-u') to the full machine name. Instead, it simply inserts the hostname without any domain appended. But this seems to be required, and can be forced by using the '-u' argument to specify it in toto. Once I did these two things (and then set up all the other normal AUTH things to make sendmail correctly), it all started working. I have no idea what problems removing the /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 directory will create for other users of SASL.

The addition of krb5 to the SASL plugins may be the reason that you need to specify the realm. Damjan needs to respond on changing the package's /opt/csw/etc/sasldb2 directory back to a file, as it was in the previous package version. Having the directory defined with group sasl was important to Damjan. I will see if I can find out more details on this. It was my understanding that if a process is not owned by root and uses the SASL database, then that process owner should be added to the sasl group. For sendmail, the sm-mta process is owned by root. I am not sure if the submission process uses SASL, which is owned by smmsp. Thanks, Alex --
