<p>FreeBSD は自由に利用でき Intel i386/i486/Pentium/PentiumPro
|
|
(とその互換 CPU) の PCで動作する, 4.4BSD-Lite ベースの全ソー
|
|
スつきのリリースです. これはもともとカリフォルニア大学バーク
|
|
レイ校 CSRGグループのソフトウェアがベースとなっており,
|
|
NetBSD, 386BSD, そして Free Software Foundation のソフトウェ
|
|
アなどにより拡張されています.
|
|
|
|
95年1月の FreeBSD 2.0 のリリースからみると, FreeBSD は性能, 機能,
|
|
安定性の面で劇的に改善されました. もっとも大きな変化は VM システムに
|
|
おける改良で, 統合化された VM/file バッファキャッシュを用いる
|
|
ことで性能を向上させながらも FreeBSD のメモリの使用量を減らすことが
|
|
できたことです. おかげで, 最低 5MB メモリという制約上でも動作する
|
|
ようになりました. その他の拡張としては NIS のクライアントとサーバの
|
|
完全サポート, トランザクション TCP のサポート, ダイヤルオンデマンド
|
|
PPP, 改良 SCSI サブシステム, ISDN の初期サポート,
|
|
FDDI や Fast Ethernet (100Mbps) などのサポート,
|
|
Adaptec 2940 (WIDE と narrow) のサポートの改良と数百件のバグの修正,
|
|
などがあります.
|
|
|
|
私たちはたくさんのユーザからのコメントや提案をまじめに受け取り,
|
|
私たちが正しいと考え, かつ導入の手順が分かりやすいものを提供しようと
|
|
努力しています. この (継続的に進化する) プロセスに対するあなたの意見を
|
|
心からお待ちしています.
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD では基本配布セットに加え, 移植されたソフトウェア集
|
|
として 数百の人気の高いプログラムを提供しています. 96年12月
|
|
初旬の時点で 700 以上の ports (移植ソフトウェア) が存在します.
|
|
ports には http (WWW) サーバから, ゲーム, 言語,
|
|
エディタまでありとあらゆるものが含まれています. portsはオリジナル
|
|
ソースに対する「差分」という形で表現されており, すべての portsを
|
|
集めても 10MB程度にしかなりません. こうすることで ports の更新を
|
|
容易にし, portsに必要なディスクスペースを小さくすることができます.
|
|
portsをコンパイルするには, インストールしたいと思っているプログラムの
|
|
ディレクトリに移動し, ``make all'' と実行してコンパイルが成
|
|
功したら, ``make install'' とすると, あとはすべてシステムが
|
|
やってくれます. どの portsもオリジナルの配布セットを動的に
|
|
CDROM または近くの FTP サーバから取ってくるので, ディスクは
|
|
構築したいと思っている portsの分だけを準備しておけば十分です.
|
|
ほとんどの portsは, すでにコンパイルされた状態で ``package''
|
|
として提供されており, ソースコードからコンパイルしたくない場
|
|
合, これを使うと (pkg_add というコマンドで) 簡単にインストー
|
|
ルできます.

|
FreeBSD 2.1 以降のマシンであれば, <bf>/usr/share/doc</bf>

合衆国の輸出規制のため, FreeBSD のコア配布セットには DES のコードは
|
|
含まれていません. 合衆国国内に限り, DES を使うプログラムなどが,
|
|
コア配布セットに加えるパッケージとして提供されています.
|
|
誰でも使えるパッケージは, 別途, 合衆国国外で提供されています.

FreeBSD 上で必要とされるセキュリティがパスワードだけであり, Sun や
|
|
DEC などの別のホストから暗号化されたパスワードをコピーする必要が
|
|
ないのであれば, FreeBSD の MD5 ベースのセキュリティで十分です.
|
|
この標準のセキュリティモデルは DES よりも適していると私たちは思って
|
|
いますし, また, やっかいな輸出規制にもひっかかることはありません.

<![ IGNORE [
|
|
<p>Since our first release of FreeBSD 1.0 nearly two
|
|
years ago, FreeBSD has changed dramatically. Since
|
|
release 2.0, FreeBSD has been based on the Berkeley
|
|
4.4BSD-Lite code rather than the Net2 code used for
|
|
previous versions. In addition to clearing the legal
|
|
issues that surrounded the Net2 code, the port to 4.4
|
|
has also brought in numerous new features, filesystems
|
|
and enhanced driver support.
|
|
|
|
Since our release of FreeBSD 2.0 in November of 1994,
|
|
the performance, feature set, and stability of FreeBSD
|
|
has improved dramatically. The largest change is a
|
|
revamped Virtual Memory (VM) system with a merged
|
|
virtual memory and file buffer cache. This increases
|
|
performance while reducing FreeBSD's memory footprint,
|
|
making a system with 4 megabytes of RAM a more
|
|
acceptable minimum. Other enhancements include full
|
|
NIS client and server support, transaction TCP support,
|
|
dial on demand PPP, an improved SCSI subsystem, early
|
|
support for ISDN, support for FDDI and 100Mbit Fast
|
|
Ethernet adapters, improved support for the Adaptec
|
|
2940 and hundreds of bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
We have also taken the comments and suggestions of many
|
|
of our users to heart and have attempted to provide
|
|
what we hope is a more sane and easily understood
|
|
installation process. Your feedback on this constantly
|
|
evolving process is especially welcome!
|
|
|
|
In addition to the base distributions, FreeBSD offers a
|
|
new ported software collection with some 270 commonly
|
|
sought-after programs. The list of ports ranges from
|
|
World Wide Web (http) servers, to games, languages,
|
|
editors and almost everything in between. The entire
|
|
ports collection requires only 10MB of storage because
|
|
each port contains only the changes required for the
|
|
source code to compile on FreeBSD and the information
|
|
necessary to automatically retrieve the original
|
|
sources. The original distribution for each port you
|
|
build is automatically retrieved off of CD-ROM or a via
|
|
anonymous ftp, so you need only enough disk space to
|
|
build the ports you want. Each port is also provided
|
|
as a pre-compiled package which can be installed with
|
|
the <tt>pkg_add(1)</tt> command for those who do not
|
|
wish to compile their own ports from source. See <ref
|
|
id="ports" name="The Ports Collection"> for a more
|
|
complete description.

|
|

For a list of contributors and a general project
|
|
description, please see the file "CONTRIB.FreeBSD"
|
|
which should be bundled with your binary distribution.
|
|
|
|
Also see the "REGISTER.FreeBSD" file for information on
|
|
registering with the "Free BSD user counter". This
|
|
counter is for ALL freely available variants of BSD,
|
|
not just FreeBSD, and we urge you to register yourself
|
|
with it.
|
|
-->
|
|
|
|
The core of FreeBSD does not contain DES code which
|
|
would inhibit its being exported outside the United
|
|
States. An add-on package, for use only in the United
|
|
States, contains the programs that normally use DES.
|
|
The auxiliary packages provided separately can be used
|
|
by anyone. A freely exportable European distribution
|
|
of DES for our non-U.S. users also exists and is
|
|
described in the <url
|
|
url="http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ" name="FreeBSD
|
|
FAQ">. If password security for FreeBSD is all you
|
|
need, and you have no requirement for copying encrypted
|
|
passwords from other hosts using DES into FreeBSD
|
|
password entries, then FreeBSD's MD5 based security may
|
|
be all you require. We feel that our default security
|
|
model is more than a match for DES, and without any
|
|
messy export issues to deal with.
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD 2.0.5 represents the culmination of 2 years of
|
|
work and many thousands of man hours put in by an
|
|
international development team. We hope you enjoy it!

<tag>Merged VM-File Buffer Cache</tag> A merged
|
|
VM/buffer cache design greatly enhances overall
|
|
system performance and makes it possible to do
|
|
a number of more optimal memory allocation
|
|
strategies that were not possible before.

<tag>Network PCB hash optimization</tag> For
|
|
systems with a great number of active TCP
|
|
connections (WEB and ftp servers, for example),
|
|
this greatly speeds up the lookup time required
|
|
to match an incoming packet up to its
|
|
associated connection.
|
|
|
|
Owner: &a.davidg;
|
|
|
|
<tag>Name cache optimization</tag> The name-cache
|
|
would cache all files of the same name to the
|
|
same bucket, which would put for instance all
|
|
".." entries in the same bucket. We added the
|
|
parent directory version to frustrate the hash,
|
|
and improved the management of the cache in
|
|
various other ways while we were at it.
|
|
|
|
Owner: &a.phk; and &a.davidg;
|
|
|
|
<tag>Less restrictive swap-spaces</tag> The need
|
|
to compile the names of the swap devices into
|
|
the kernel has been removed. Now
|
|
<tt>swapon(8)</tt> will accept any block
|
|
devices, up to the maximum number of swap
|
|
devices configured in the kernel.

|
<tag>Hard Wired SCSI Devices</tag> Prior to
|
|
2.0.5, FreeBSD performed dynamic assignment of
|
|
unit numbers to SCSI devices as they were
|
|
probed, allowing a SCSI device failure to
|
|
possibly change unit number assignment. This
|
|
could cause filesystems other disks in the
|
|
system to be incorrectly mounted, or not
|
|
mounted at all. Hard wiring allows static
|
|
allocation of unit numbers (and hence device
|
|
names) to scsi devices based on SCSI ID and
|
|
bus. SCSI configuration occurs in the kernel
|
|
config file. Samples of the configuration
|
|
syntax can be found in the <tt>scsi(4)</tt> man
|
|
page or the LINT kernel config file.

|
<tag>Slice Support</tag> FreeBSD now supports a
|
|
<em>slice</em> abstraction which enhances
|
|
FreeBSD's ability to share disks with other
|
|
operating systems. This support will allow
|
|
FreeBSD to inhabit DOS extended partitions.

<tag>Support for Ontrack Disk Manager Version 6.0</tag>
|
|
Support has been added for disks
|
|
which use Ontrack Disk Manager. The fdisk
|
|
program does <em>not</em> know about it
|
|
however, so make all changes using the install
|
|
program on the boot.flp or the Ontrack Disk
|

considerably since the 2.0 release of FreeBSD.
|
|
We now offer full support for the 2940 series as

arbitration bug that caused problems with fast
|
|
devices has been corrected and
|
|
<em>experimental</em> tagged queuing support has

<tag>UNIONFS and LFS</tag> The unionfs and LFS file
|
|
systems are known to be severely broken in FreeBSD
|
|
2.0.5. This is in part due to old bugs that we
|
|
have not had time to resolve yet and the need to
|
|
update these file systems to deal with the new VM
|
|
system. We hope to address these issues in a later
|
|
release of FreeBSD.
|
|
|
|
<tag>iBCS2 Support</tag> FreeBSD now supports running
|
|
iBCS2 compatible binaries. Currently SCO UNIX 3.2.2
|
|
and 3.2.4, and ISC 2.2 COFF are supported. The iBCS2
|
|
emulator is in its early stages and has not been
|
|
extensively tested, but it is functional. Most of
|
|
SCO's 3.2.2 binaries work, as does an old
|
|
INFORMIX-2.10 for SCO. Further testing is necessary
|
|
to complete this project. There is also work under
|
|
way for ELF and XOUT loaders, and most of the svr4
|
|
syscall wrappers are written.

<sect1><heading>Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code</heading>
|
|
|
|
<p>Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code
|
|
are always valued - please do not hesitate to report any
|
|
problems you may find (preferably with a fix attached if
|
|
you can!).
|
|
|
|
The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine
|
|
with Internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr
|
|
command. Bug reports will be dutifully filed by our
|
|
faithful bug-filer program and you can be sure that we will
|
|
do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon as
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr
|
|
command to submit a bug report, you can try to send it
|
|
to: <tscreen>bugs@FreeBSD.org</tscreen> Otherwise, for
|
|
any questions or suggestions, please send mail to:
|
|
<tscreen>questions@FreeBSD.org</tscreen>
|
|
|
|
Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always
|
|
happy to have extra hands willing to help - there are
|
|
already far more enhancements to be done than we can ever
|
|
manage to do by ourselves! To contact us on technical
|
|
matters, or with offers of help, you may send mail to:
|
|
<tscreen>hackers@FreeBSD.org</tscreen>
|
|
|
|
Since these mailing lists can experience significant
|
|
amounts of traffic, if you have slow or expensive mail
|
|
access and you are only interested in keeping up with
|
|
significant FreeBSD events, you may find it preferable to
|
|
subscribe to: <tscreen>announce@FreeBSD.org</tscreen>
|
|
|
|
All but the freebsd-bugs groups can be freely joined by
|
|
anyone wishing to do so. Send mail to &a.majordomo
|
|
and include the keyword `help' on a
|
|
line by itself somewhere in the body of the message.
|
|
This will give you more information on joining the
|
|
various lists, accessing archives, etc. There are a
|
|
number of mailing lists targeted at special interest
|
|
groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo and
|
|
ask about them!
