pkg_deinstall -R portname



Wouldn't this remove all ports that depend on the port in question (its
dependants)?  The OP wants to remove all ports that are *required* by the
port (its dependencies).  But furthermore, he wants to remove those that
AREN'T NEEDED BY ANY OTHER PORTS.



pkg_deinstall won't remove ports that are required by other ports. 
pkg_deinstalling a Perl (p5-) port, for example, won't forcefully 
deinstall lang/perl itself (unless you're removing the very last port 
that requires lang/perl).  'man pkg_deinstall' will tell you how to 
accomplish what you want.  There are a number of other port mgmt 
utilities as well.  (sysutils/portmaster comes to mind.)


Good luck!

You have to have the xorg-clients (or xfree-clients, if you're going
that way) installed to get the xauth(1) binary, so ssh can set the key
for the display it allocates.

It works great for me. I have a pretty fast internet connection (cable
modem).

One thing I like about it is the session doesn't end when you
disconnect. You can start a long running process like cvsup, disconnect,
and come back later to check on it.

Unlike when you vnc to a Windows box, you don't get the X session
that's on the local workstation, you get a new one. If you need to
connect to the primary X session, like for remote support, there's a
version of VNC in the ports for that too (xvnc?).


For the record, I finally got standard X11 forwarding working once I 
installed tightvnc.  I presume it was because I didn't have an X11 
client installed.  Now to get VNC working!  I can see which I prefer. 
Thank you again all for your time!

Problems with X11 Forwarding

2006-01-15 Thread Aaron Dalton
I thought this might be the best place to post the question.  I am 
running FreeBSD5.4-RELEASE.  For the sake of argument, let's say I am 
trying to get the port editors/fte running on my Windows box via an SSH 
tunnel.  I am running WindowsXP, cygwin's X11 server, and PUTTY.  As far 
as I can tell from all my Googling, this should actually be quite simple:


- openssh is setup on FreeBSD with X11Forwarding=yes
- I start the cygwin X-server (XWin -ac -multiwindow)
- Putty is configured to forward X11 sessions
- I connect via Putty
- running '$ fte' from the FreeBSD command line should supposedly open 
everything up now on my Windows box, but it does not.


From what I understand, when I connect now via Putty the env variable 
DISPLAY should be set.  But it is not (which is the error fte gives me 
when I try to run it).  If I try to manually set the DISPLAY variable (I 
tried localhost:0, localhost:0.0, ip:0, ip:0.0) it still doesn't work. 
editors/fte is fully installed (with X11libs and all that) but I wonder 
if there is more I need installed on the FreeBSD end to make things work.


I really appreciate your time and any assistance you can render.

Problem with Exim

2005-02-12 Thread Aaron Dalton
Since upgrading to the latest exim (4.44?) I will occasionally notice I 
am not receiving mail.  I will check the server (ps -ax | grep 'exim') 
and find that there are dozens of exim processes running (exim -bd 
-q30m).  I will do 'exim.sh stop' but that only kills the initial 
process and not the others.  If I manually kill all the stray processes, 
as soon as I start receiving mail new ones will appear.  If I reboot, 
then everything works fine for about 24 hours then it starts to happen 
again.  Has anybody else had this happen or does anybody know what might 
be causing the problem?  I do run Exim with Clamav and I keep all my 
ports updated almost daily.

Your time and assistance is greatly appreciated.

Is there some particular reason why you must use print/latex ?
If there is not I would suggest that you use print/teTeX instead.
It is probably more up to date and is what most people use for
TeX-related stuff.

Well I've only ever used LaTeX.  Perhaps I don't need it, but I'm not 
sure.  I am unfamiliar with the specific differences between plain TeX 
and the LaTeX2e macros.  I use Miktex on my windows box and have always 
used LaTeX reference materials for composing my documents.  LaTeX used 
to be installed on this BSD box and I don't recall having any problems 
back then (it was installed as a part of print/lilypond).  Well, now 
that I look through lilypond's Makefile, it appears that latex is a part 
of print/teTeX?  *is a little confused*  I will try installing that instead.

What are the differences between print/latex and print/teTeX?  Why are 
there two ports?

There is indeed and I finally found an article that speaks about it.  The 
solution was for me to manually enter the "passive" command before 
transferring.  This is odd seeing as it "says" it's entering some form of 
passive mode, but it's really not.  What's even more odd is that for me to 
make Konqueror work with this server, I had to go to KControl and turn PASV 
ftp mode OFF!  Go figure.  Anyway, it seems to work now.

ProFTPd: 229 Entering Extended Passive Mode

2004-08-16 Thread Aaron Dalton
I am running the latest port version of ProFTPd on one of my servers but it 
seems to hang for as long as 60 seconds whenever I attempt to transfer data.  
The cmd line says "229 Entering Extended Passive Mode" and then hangs.  
Eventually it does work, but it greatly impedes my coding efforts.  What is 
odd is that this does *not* occur when I access an identical ProFTPd 
installation on another machine.  Does anybody know what might cause this 
sort of excessive delay and how maybe to repair it?

Thank you, as always, for your time and assistance.

ipfw rule deletion

# #2 : source IP; i.e. dotted-decimal address of the 'knock' client
# $3 : source port; when this script is called for the first time
#  for a connection (man 8 doormand), this argument will be set

Savage4, DRI, and NWN

2003-12-01 Thread Aaron Dalton
Before I pull out my hair seeking for answers that don't exist, I would
appreciate confirmation of the following points:

1) There is currently no DRI driver for the Savage4 graphics card, meaning
no matter how I configure XFree86, glxinfo will always tell me that
Direct Rendering is not enabled.

2) Without DRI enabled, I cannot get the Neverwinter Nights linux client
to run.

I am currently running FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE with XFree86 4.3.0.  If any of
the above are untrue, I would appreciate some pointers as to where to
start.  Thank you for your time!

It's an error I get with multiple software packages that compile just 
fine in Linux, which is why I thought it might be a more common BSD 
"problem" and one with perhaps a common answer.  If not, I'll have to 
try some other things.  Is /usr/include/netinet6/in6.h something 
generated when building the kernel itself?  Can I copy this from /usr/
src/sys after doing a cvsup of the src tree?

These aren't ports, which is the problem :)  I'm trying to compile 
HawkNL (a c++ socket library) and a linux bandwidth monitor I use on my 
Linux box.  Neither of which are in the ports tree.

Actually I'm running FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE.  I don't believe I've ever 
tried to cvsup my include files.  Perhaps I should do a full upgrade to 
4.9-RELEASE and see how it goes?  What's the best way to approach that 
without losing all my pkgdb and settings?

Netinet6

2003-10-31 Thread Aaron Dalton
I have been trying to compile some C++ socket code.  I get the same 
errors with multiple software packages so I'm thinking it's something 
FreeBSD-related.  I am a BSD newb so I would appreciate any advice you 
could give me.  Below are the errors themselves.  Thank you so much for 
your time.

Thanks so much for your help!  I'm sorry for not being completely up to date 
with the Ports list.  I'll do the reinstall tonight.  Sure appreciate your

Please excuse my ignorance.  I cvsup'd my ports tree and used 
portupgrade to upgrade everything but I can't get 
XFree86-FontServer-4.3.0 or Clients to install due to the following 
error after making:

Where is this library "Xfont" supposed to be?  Thank you so much for
