You have to configure MySQL for Bacula and the conf-files of Bacula. There are create scripts for MySQL. You should read the very good doc at bacula.org.

carp ghosts
Hi! We have two Frontendserver with carpinterfaces. Now we need more of the carpinterfaces. When i use /etc/netstart to bring them online, there are error messages about misconfigured carpinterfaces. When i look with ifconfig to the list of interfaces, there are four "ghost" carpinterfaces. I haven't set them in the rc.conf and the errors came frome them. This interfaces are the following from the list of "real" carpinterfaces. Where could i have made a mistake or is it a bad idea using netstart with carpinterfaces? thanks in advance Alex ___ 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"

update/upgrade question
Hello! Maybe i haven't understand the process of updating not really. I thought when i use Releng_6 in the stable_supfile i get the latest version of 6.x = 6.4. But after the process of make buildworld and so on, it is still 6.3. Do i have to use Releng_6_4 even when i do not get the patches then? Next question is if i don't get updates with freebsd-update when i have a stable version? I have the problem with two machines (6.3 and 6.4).

Xfce4 on 8.0 RC2
Hi! Is anyone running this combination? I am having trouble with two points> 1. When i close a ssh connection in a terminal, the prompt does not come back. I have to close the tab. Without X the connections are ok and i had Debian lenny earlier on the laptop also with Xfce4. There was everything ok. 2. When switching between the desktops i have to wait up to 3 seconds before it is done, depending on what app there is running. For example: Desk1: Terminal with several tabs Desk2: firefox35 Desk3: Openoffice3 calc Desk4: atunes Desk1 --> Desk2 ok Desk2 --> Desk3 ok Desk1 --> Desk4 3 sec Desk4 --> Desk1 3 sec Desk2 --> Desk1 3 sec I am running it on Dell Latitude E6500 with 4GB Ram.
