Q Does FreeBSD have support for 802.11g? I just
purchased a new Apple Base Station Extreme, and I'd like to run everything as
802.11g so I'm pushing bits across the wire faster. Unfortunately, I have a
number of FreeBSD laptops as well as the Apple laptops to worry about.
A The ath driver, which provides support for
wireless adapters based on the Atheros AR5210, AR5211, and AR5212 chips, was
committed to FreeBSD-current in June. The R5212-based devices support 802.11g,
so that may be something to work with. FreeBSD-current may not be stable enough
for your environment, though, so you may want to set up two separate networks
-- one for your 802.11b users and one for your 802.11g users.
Q I'm trying to set up mailman on a Solaris
8 box running Apache 1.3.26. I've successfully done the mailman install, and
I've added the following line to httpd.conf:
ScriptAlias /mailman/ "/usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/"
Running apachectl configtest shows that the syntax is good. However, when I try
to go to http://www.my.domain/mailman/create, I get garbage. The first
line has a bunch of empty boxes and the word ELF. Later it shows some HTML:
Content-type: text/html
<head>
<title>Mailman CGI error!!!</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Mailman CGI error!!!</h1>
The Mailman CGI wrapper encountered a fatal error.
