Well not exactly. Its still in /bin, but any attempt to use it returns `Subject:: not found` I have two systems affected, both 4.7-Release, both cvsup'd right before running the following patch script: #!/bin/csh cd /usr/src fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-03:17/procfs4x.patch patch < procfs4x.patch fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-03:16/filedesc.patch patch < filedesc.patch fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-03:15/openssh47.patch patch < openssh47.patch fetch ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/patches/SA-03:18/openssl96.patch patch < openss96.patch make buildworld make buildkernel make installkernel make installworld reboot I am fairly new to BSD and also lazy as you can see by my script. Did I cause more harm then good? Should I have rebooted between patches/builds? How can I fix? Please help! Thanks, Dennis

Did I cause more harm then good? Should I have rebooted between patches/builds? How can I fix? 1) Please wrap your lines at 70 characters so your mails may be easily read. 2) Doing the above commands with no error checking is a very bad idea. If buildworld fails, you'll go on to install the partly-built world (which will also fail at some point), leaving your system in an inconsistent state. This might not have caused your problems with cat, but it's nonetheless a recipe for disaster. Please do the following commands for me: whereis cat ls -l /bin/cat file /bin/cat Kris -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
