Woody/SS5 upgrade problem
I tried upgrading my SS5 from the last potato release to woody last night and things didn't go so well. Using apt-get, I did a update and then a dist-upgrade. Halfway through the upgrade, dpkg died with a broken pipe. I also saw some warnings about unimplemented SPARC system calls associated with inetd and ssh. Anyways, I rebooted the system and tried over and now named doesn't work - it complains about the SPARC system calls. I had everything working fine with potato. Since named isn't resolving, how can I finish upgrading my system, or do I need to burn a CD and start over? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Woody/SS5 upgrade problem
At the risk of asking a dumb question... have you tried pointing to a working DNS server in your resolv.conf? You don't need to run named to resolve DNS names.

Re: Woody/SS5 upgrade problem
My resolve.conf lists my firewall (SS2+Solaris) as my DNS server. The SS5 resolved everything when I started the upgrade. I tried pinging the firewall by name which didn't work, but the IP address did. From past experience the only time when I can't ping my firewall by name I can't ping it by IP either. To be 100% sure, I'll try again. Do I need to worry about the unimplemented SPARC system calls? They sound ominous.

Do I need to worry about the unimplemented SPARC system calls? Well, they mean your libc is way ahead of your kernel... you should definitely consider upgrading to a 2.4 kernel anyway... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
