similar to: Remote Installworld

Hi, I'm running 4.8-STABLE but I'm having some problems installing a new kernel. (in /usr/src make installkernel). mv /kernel /kernel.old operation not permitted My securelevel is currently set to -1 (kern_securelevel=-1) and kern_securelevel_enable="NO" I have already executed chflags noschg /kernel and /kernel.old (while in single user mode). What am I missing? Thanks.

I am cleaning up my 4-STABLE system. After a fresh installworld, I am looking at files that did not get touched by the install. Is it safe to remove all such files? In particular, I am looking at /usr/libexec/lib-elf.so.1, which has the schg flag set. I am afraid to remove this for fear of making my system unbootable. Could somebody please reassure me that it is ok to noschg and remove this old

Hi all: I have strange probelm with rc.conf. I set up ipfw (compiled into kernel) on freebsd-5.4 and it doesn't seem to load ipfw rulesets (it uses default ruleset 65335 locking out everything). I have to do "sh /etc/ipfw.rules" in order to load the rulesets, once I did that, I can access the box from remote locations here is my rc.conf: host# more /etc/rc.conf

During installworld I get: cat /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/man/ncurses.3x > ncurses.3 sh /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/man/MKterminfo.sh /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/man/terminfo.head /usr/src/lib/ncurses/ncurses/../../../contrib/ncurses/include/Caps

HI, i have updatete to 6.1-PRERELEASE and after the "installworld" step GRUB is unable to boot FreeBSD. After i did the installworld and rebooted the GRUB error was: 23 : Error while parsing number I have reinstalled the standard FreeBSD loader for now. Booting with a GRUB boot-floppy i am able to start either XP or Linux but trying to start FreeBSD the system just reboots, no

Hello, I installed 4.8-RELEASE a few weeks ago, and since I let the effort sit stagnant for a while I decided to do the cvsup/buildworld/buildkernel/installkernel/installworld/mergemaster/MAKEDEV steps to get current. Went fine, rebooted, then noticed that just one CPU was recognized: FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #0: Thu Jun 19 17:05:20 PDT 2003

Good Day, Please cc me ( eperrin@cseven.ca ) on responses to this, I am not on either mailing list anymore. I cvsup'ed on the STABLE branch today (September 9th) at around 2:30PM EDT. No problems with buildworld or kernel build, but I am getting failures during installworld Error and output from uname -a are below. vm/pmap.h -> vm/pmap.ph vm/swap_pager.h -> vm/swap_pager.ph vm/vm.h

Just a quick question, My system is quite heavily customised with regard to permissions and MAC labels on system binaries. Is there any way to stop make installworld resetting all my customisation? At the moment I have a set of scripts to set permissions on everything but that's not exactly ideal. Mark -- PGP: http://www.darklogik.org/pub/pgp/pgp.txt B776 43DC 8A5D EAF9 2126 9A67 A7DA 390F

Hi, I am a long time OpenBSD user trying FreeBSD. I am attempting to upgrade my system from FreeBSD RELEASE 4.7 to "STABLE" This is my first post to this list so please be gentle : ) I followed http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html But when I get to "21.4.9 Install the New System Binaries" This happens: root@smeagol /usr/src # make

I'm setting up a server where I plan to use Jails to improve security I also have installed and am configuring ipfilter. Here are my questions: Because I'm using Jails, I will have to have multiple ip aliases on the network interface. I will use ipfilter to specify what can go to each of the addresses. (e.g., allow only incoming to port 80 on the jail running apache). Another

Hi, Can kernel's freeBSD exploited by tools hacking ? If true, can I know how to fix this problem, and what tools can do that. Thanks alot

Hi, hackers : Yesterday night and this morning, I cvsup my system to latest STABLE branch source (RELENG_4). All make buildworld, buildkernel, and installkernel procedure was completed with no error. But when I boot into single user mode and try to make installworld, I always got " touch: not found " error. Does anyone encounter this situation ? I have no idea about that. :-( Here is

has anyone played with the securelevel variable in the kernel and the immutable flags in the ext2 file system? The only way I have found to change the flag is by patching sched.c from int securelevel=0 to int securelevel=1 The sysctrl code seems to allow the setting of the flag only by init (PID=1) and only upwards (0->1, etc). The problem is that I haven''t found a way to get init

I've read about securelevel in the mailing list archive, and found some pitfalls (and seems to me to be discarded soon). But According to me, the following configuration should offer a good security: - mount root fs read only at boot; - set securelevel to 3; - do not permit to unmount/remount roots fs read-write (now it is possible by means of "mount -uw /"); - the only way to make

I'm looking for a nice Open Source web hosting Control Panel. Is anybody using VHCS with Centos4? Any other suggestions for good control panels? We'd really prefer a panel with a MySQL backend for user settings and such.

is there a way to save special flags in freebsd when using rsync? for example dd# ls -lo init -r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel schg 711744 Mar 12 18:51 init dd# file has flag schg when i just use rsync it copy that file and loses that flag -- http://alexus.org/

Hello, I have an amd64 laptop on which I did a fresh csup to RELENG_7. I did the canonical "buildworld", "buildkernel", "installkernel" and so far so good.
