hi guys, i have version 4.8-STABLE running. i've just update my stable-supfile and building, recompiling my custom kernel, my question is: if im going to cvsup my stable-supfile again, and compile the customed kernel again, do i have to: make buildworld, make installworld, mergemaster again or just make buildkernel KERNCONF & make install KERNCONF? hoping for your reply guys, thanks.

Greetings, Apologies if this is not the appropriate list, but my questions are about best practices in maintaining production servers (so I believe I can justify a post in -stable, short of a -release list :) I maintain a modest installation of 6 FreeBSD servers. They're CVSUP'd to RELENG_4_8 (I make buildworld on each individually) and I portupgrade ports as necessary. In an attempt to

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

Greetings, After I updated my FreeBSD box from 4.7 to 4.8 I "lost" my users, but heck with users, what I mean by lost is that I can't login, when I try to login as the root or a regular user it says: pam_authanticate: permission denied so, I went ahead and re-updated my box from the very beginning, including unnecessary at this point cvsup. I used this command: make buildworld

Hello, all! In the beginning I want to say, that this question seems to be a security one, isn't it so?.. Recently I was googling for the subject and coulnd't find anything... Even in the opennet.ru forum nobody answered me about this. So, as far as I got to know, randomizing source ports in FreeBSD is impossible now? (to be exact - is not implemented?) It's very interesting to me

Hello, I have a problem with loader. I recently upgraded from 6_rel to 7_rel. Now when I install world there is a problem booting. Here is what I do: cd /usr/src make buildworld make buildkernel KERNCONF=BLACK make installkernel KERNCONF=BLACK At this point I can reboot and all is good. After boot I install the new world: cd /usr/src mergemaster -p reboot into single user mode cd /usr/src make

hi i have a problem with my icmp, i have a router that performs nat. i cannot ping to internet hosts from more than one stations situated behind NAT at once. if i want to ping from another station i have to stop the ping that was initiated from the first host, and after a few seconds i can ping from another station.i've checked firewll and i have no ipfw rules that could stop icmp traffic.

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

I'm still kind of hung up looking for some definitive answers on this issue. Perhaps you guys can help me out? Frank Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2003 17:55:33 -0500 (CDT) From: "F.

Hey Guys, today I upgraded to 4.8-RELEASE-p15. As usual I set IPFIREWALL to default accept in my kernel config file. Config & make weren't complaining so, installed the kernel, reboot and there it was: >IP packet filtering initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding enabled, default to deny, logging disabled Another rebuild didn't work out so... I reviewed

Hi, im a newbie to freebsd. I just installed 5.1, but my sound isnt working, im not sure if I have to install the alsa sound drivers or not. the integrated sound I have with my shuttle mv42n board is Via AC97 sound, and when I go into kde i get the error message Sound server informational message: Error while initializing the sound driver: device /dev/dsp can't be opened (No such file or

Hi folks, I think we need to update compat5x binary to fix FreeBSD-SA-05:21.openssl, but will the binaries built by ``make universe'' be identical with actual build on Alpha, Sparc64, etc? (Yes, I'm volunteering to do the work iff they are identical ;-) Cheers, -- Xin LI <delphij frontfree net> http://www.delphij.net/ See complete headers for GPG key and other information.

Title: HOWTO-FreeBSD-on-XCP Author: John D. "Trix" Farrar Date: 2012-02-09 * The Challenge - ParaVirtualized FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE under XCP 1.1.0 The idea here is to create a PV FreeBSD VM under Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) without starting with an HVM first. The documentation I''''ve been able to find on-line is at least a year old and is mostly written for Xen (under

since august 8th, 2003 the kernel on my i386 pentiumIII won't compile. the problem arises in locore.s with the definition of the constants $PAGE_SHIFT and $PTESHIFT used in `shr' and `shl' instructions within the macros `fillkpt' and `fillkptphys'. i've tried to cvsup(1) RELENG_4 and RELENG_4_8 every day for over a week now, but kernel builds (as part of a buildworld)

Back before the 7.0 Release I used to install cross builds by NFS-mounting /usr/src and /usr/obj of the build machine on the target machine and running: # cd /usr/src # env MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj/<stuff> make installkernel KERNCONF=<kernconf> ... This doesn't work any more because all the installation tools are built for the architecture of the build system. The alternative

I sent this to freebsd-questions earlier via the newsgroup, but I just found out today that the list-to-news gateway has been down for half a month now. Any idea when it's going back up? Who was hosting that service anyway? And now for the question.. I have a test server that is being used to test a 4.4-REL to 4.8-STABLE upgrade, and I've found the system will no longer boot unless I

Got a pretty stupid question... My kernel is now 4.8 Stable#1 but when does the number change when i do makeworld and the other things? or where can i see that?
