Dear members, It may sound a silly question. I have curl installed: # pkg_info |grep curl curl-7.24.0_3 Non-interactive tool to get files from FTP, GOPHER, HTTP(S) Today portsnap updated the ftp/curl port, and patch-CVE-2013-2174 appeared in files/, but the port version remained such that portaudit, and portupgrade still complain about curl's version. What is the recommended way to

Hi again, From examples I have gleaned the following snippet for manifests/site.pp Package { provider => $operatingsystem ? { FreeBSD => freebsd, #FreeBSD => ports, debian => aptitude, redhat => up2date }} Are there providers documented somewhere? I''m not sure where to look, and I haven''t come across it in my

Perhaps a rather stupid question, but I have not found the complete correct way to upgrade a Samba installation on FreeBSD. I always use the ports to install the newer version, but after a while I discovered that the installation of the new version did not uninstall the previous version, so when you look at the installed packages (pkg_info) you can see all older versions, they can be uninstalled

I've seen that is possible to use switch port blocking with freeradius and cisco switches via 802.1X and EAP protocol. Here is more info: http://wiki.freeradius.org/FreeRADIUS_Active_Directory_Integration_HOWTO What if I don't have switch that supports 802.1X or I want that blocking is done by FreeBSD, not the switch. Because FreeBSD is the firewall or gateway to some networks. Is there

does anybody have the same problem as I have : (running CURRENT, but the problem occurs on STABLE too) latest portupgrade, ports cvsuped today. fully reproductible with any package... am i missing something ? i hope yes... portinstall -PP teTeX ---> Checking the availability of the latest package of 'print/teTeX' ---> Fetching the package(s) for 'teTeX-2.0.2_2'

Dear FreeBSD users, Slightly more than three years ago, I released FreeBSD Update, my first major contribution to FreeBSD. Since then, I have become a FreeBSD committer, joined the FreeBSD Security Team, released Portsnap, and become the FreeBSD Security Officer. However, as I have gone from being a graduate student at Oxford University -- busy writing my thesis -- to a researcher at Simon

im compiling kde from the ports for about the hundreth time and something always goes wrong this time its more simple than most but i can't seem to find what im looking for. It attempted to fetch a library called tiff.4 in several places and found nothing. It asked me to find it and ive been looking all over google and got nothing. Does anybody know where i can find this library? Thanx, Max

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 There has been a lot of discussion on these two mailing lists about the upcoming EoL of FreeBSD 4.x which I mentioned in my email entitled "HEADS UP: FreeBSD 5.3, 5.4, 6.0 EoLs coming soon". Now that everybody (hopefully) has had their say, I'd like to offer some background and explanation. The concept of "security branches"

Dear FreeBSD users and system administrators, While the FreeBSD Security Team has traditionally been very good at investigating and responding to security issues in FreeBSD, this only solves half of the security problem: Unless users and administrators of FreeBSD systems apply the security patches provided, the advisories issued accomplish little beyond alerting potential attackers to the

Hello, Before a couple of days ago I started /usr/local/sbin/cupsd manualy from console. When I press CTRL+C to interrupt a program, the system change runlevel and going to reboot. This was on FreeBSD V5.3, today I installed fresh new 5.4 but the problem is the same. cups-base-1.1.23.0_3 -- Todor Dragnev <todor.dragnev@gmail.com>

Hi, I am running an environment with 15 FreeBSD servers on which I want to maintain ports, rc.conf settings, and assorted configuration in /usr/local/etc/. Looked around the existing Puppet docs, I got a puppetmaster and a test client to work and install a package as specified in the site manifest. This is very basic but awesome! I want to create a puppet FreeBSD HowTo that addresses a

Greetings, I haven't upgraded my tree(s) for awhile. My last attempt to rebuild after an updating src && ports, resulted in nearly installing the entire ports tree, which is why I've waited so long. Try as I might, I've had great difficulty finding something that will _only_ upgrade what I already have installed, _and_ respect the "options" used during the original

HI all, I am running FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE (of today) on a HP Pavillon (centrino based notebook with i915 graphic chipset). I am trying to use the latest drm hook for i915, but I get this error: drmsub0: <Intel i915GM> port 0x1800-0x1807 mem 0xb0080000-0xb00fffff,0xc0000000-0xcfffffff,0xb0000000-0xb003ffff irq 16 at device 2.0 on pci0 error: [drm:pid0:drm_load] *ERROR* Card isn't AGP, or

Hi all, Having a bit of a problem with portupgrade on a -STABLE machine: [root@erwin]/root: portupgrade -aRn ---> Session started at: Tue, 27 May 2003 22:54:00 +1000 closed stream ---> Session ended at: Tue, 27 May 2003 22:54:01 +1000 (consumed 00:00:01) [root@erwin]/root: pkgdb -F does the same thing. Any clues? cheers, Rob [root@erwin]/root: uname -a FreeBSD erwin.number6

Dear Samba friends, Last weekend I decided to upgrade the samba server. We were running Samba 3.3 something and FreeBSD portupgrade was complaining that this version should be removed and assumingly replaced by the newest version. I removed the package via portupgrade and installed the 3.5.6 version. The upgrade went quite smoothly in general, but I encountered some difficulties with the printer

Hello, When I run portupgrade -ra and PHP needs upgrading I am faced with having to select all the options I want PHP compiled with (again). I hate this. How can I continually compile PHP with the same options as the last time? Thanks! Rick
