Hey, I have a crapper p2 400 mhz running pfsense (freeBSD 6.1) for my router.

I would like to get that folding but

./FAH504-Linux.exe -freeBSD is not working for me.
I get
# ./FAH504-Linux.exe -freeBSD
ELF binary type "3" not known.
./FAH504-Linux.exe: Exec format error. Binary file not executable.

could anyone give me some pointers?

thanks,
Zack
 
wow. I thought my 1800+ was long in the tooth.

Somebody throw the man a bone here. Zack is obviously very concerned about the state of our landfills.

:D ..just giving you crap as I don't know the solution to your issue. BSD is cool though, carry on and somebody around here should be able to address it.

 
yeah, it actually works quite well as my dual wan router, I wouldn't really need more power for the task it does.


Could someone with endian tell me how they think the computer above would handle with it. I have been informed that the kernel of pfsense does not have linux support so folding on my current router is not an option.

thanks,
Zack
 
I see that pfsense is derived from m0n0wall.

Have you tried m0n0wall?

I have very little linux/unix experience. I got m0n0wall running, but I could not get it to work. I mean I installed it fine, configured it... but no traffic could pass. So I gave up.
 
Do you have linux binary support on the machine? I ran OpenBSD for quite a while, and I think I had to install something from the ports collection in order to get it to run. Also, if you do a little searching on google, you should be able to find the info you are looking for.

I have a router running endian and folding at the same time so it's doable as long as you can get access to the root shell any way. Dunno about BSD-based routers.

 
You need to install the Linux emulation package/libraries.

There is a "port" for it.
 
I heard back from one of the pfsense developers, that linux support is not compiled into the kernel. I may look into custom compiling a kernel, but its only a 400 mhz computer and I guess not all of my computers have to fold. I think I would take too much of a performance hit, if I went to linux based endian running on this old machine.

You can try using IPCop since it require a less powerful machine. IPCop has additional modules available, including a folding client so that would be your best option.
 
Yeah, IPcop linux based? I dont think IPcop supports dual wan though, which im currently using and need. Maybe ill give endian a shot, it supports dual wan, right?

I have no idea but it may be possible. Check the IPCop/endian forums to get your answer.
