It seems to be a pretty neat. -- Regards, Michael Nottebrock -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

However, it was empty. rm -rf didn't help either. Because I didn't know what to do I decided to boot. At system startup fsck was started which produced the message: unexpected softupdate inconsistency and also that

Greetings, out of fun and to investigate claims about alleged bgfsck resource hogging (which I could not reproduce) posted to news:de.comp.os.unix.bsd, I pressed the reset button on a live FreeBSD 5-STABLE system. Upon reboot, fsck -p complained about an unexpected softupdates inconsistency on the / file system and put me into single user mode, the manual fsck / then asked me to agree to

Hi, while testing racoon on Linux (based on the ported ipsec-tools) the following issue appeared: Racoon did not verify the RSA Signatures during Phase 1 in either main or aggressive mode. Authentication was possible using a correct certificate and a wrong private key. I have verified the below problem using racoon-20030711 on FreeBSD 4.9. I will test it using the SNAP Kit but suspect it to be

Dear all! I'd like to know if something changed for pgp263i on amd64. In ports, archs recommended are i386 and alpha. Has someone used gpg-idea port (with idea and rsa) to circum- vent pgp <-> gpg missmetch? Best regards Zoran

I have a client that has several dell machines, when he boots without a keyboard he gets: atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> at port 0x60,0x64 on isa0 but no: atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> flags 0x1 irq 1 on atkbdc0 kbd0 at atkbd0 This used to work, then was broken by someone trying to "do the right thing". We need the keyboards to be hot swappable. I recommend that

Hi, I would like to follow 4-stable on my FreeBSD box, and i can't fetch binaries from /stand/sysinstall. Can anyone help me? Here is how i did: 1) I installed 4.8-RELEASE from CD, 2) I used cvsup to upgrade.

Hi. I've been playing a bit with "use sound card as an entropy source" idea. This simple program does what I wanted: http://people.freebsd.org/~pjd/misc/sndrand.tbz The program is very simple, it should be run with two arguments: % sndtest /dev/dspW 1048576 > rand.data This command will generate 1MB of random data.
