Yeah -- you need to update or install the package that provides libaprutil-1.so.

Network Question
Hello, I have two computers, both running FreeBSD, accessing the web via DHCP from the router. The setup looks like this: Internet | | | machine1.example.com --- Router --- machine.2.example.com - DHCP -- DHCP - Both computers can access the internet with no problems. So far so good... My question is, if I can simultaneously have the computers access the net as in the given picture and also let them communicate with each other e.g. via ssh?

Re: Network Question
Just read your mail. I will have to take some time, to look into what you have said, as I have not yet used the concepts that you spoke about. Another solution would be to install a new network card into both computers and assign static ip addresses to them, but I do not want to do that.

So, there are two ways to solve this problem: o- As I mention above, use reservations in DHCP to tie IP addresses to MAC addresses - this is a fairly manual process, and doesn't scale beyond a few machines.. o- Use a DNS/DHCP solution whereby DNS is dynamically updated with an IP address by the DHCP server when a machine leases an IP address to a machine. This requires some work up front, but then takes care of itself, so scales fairly well.

Re: Network Question
That was easier than I thought. My initial approach already looked something like this, except that for the ip address I always put the machine's name as in: machine1# ssh u...@machine2.example.com which results in ssh: Could not resolve hostname machine2.example.com: hostname nor servname provided, or not known I think the problem here lies with the /etc/hosts file where machine1 and machine2 have to be registered respectively.

Hi Daniel, The easiest way is to check the LAN Config (or similar) page of the router. They usually allow one to specify fixed IP and hostname for the DHCP clients based on the MAC addresses.

Could anyone please help to sort this please? Maybe a fsck is running on the disk device? Also check mount -v if the disk is really unmounted. Make sure any running fsck has been finished and try again. In worst case, manually initiate a file system check. Then try mounting the disk again. Yes, I've done at least five fsck's with different options and there has not been any complaints. The drive is not mounted at boot time. Anyway, mount -v seems to have sorted it. It was already mounted to a different mountpoint due to my own brain damage apparently although I cannot recall ever doing it. Problem solved.

Geom Multipath
does geom_multipath have some automatic type detection of mutipath drives? like in solaris? or is it all a manual process of labelling and such ?? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

lprof startup issue, QAssistantClient not found
After installing (and reinstalling) devel/lprof, I keep getting the error: The QAssistantClient executable was not found. Make sure that assistant(.exe)is located either in your PATH or in the $QTDIR/bin directory. Help will not be availble until this is corrected. I have both devel/qt4-assistant devel/qt4-assistant-adp installed, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. assistant-qt4 and assistant_adp both exist in /usr/local/bin If I create a symbolic link of assistant to either of the assistant* executables I no longer get the error message, but no help shows up either... ideas? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
