Gvinum and swap partitions
I recently converted a vinum boot mirror to gvinum on a FreeBSD STABLE box. The mirror was initially setup using the information on Greg Lehey's The Complete Freebsd book, resulting in everything being mirrored on my boot drive, including the swap partition. While trying to get up to speed with the whole gvinum/vinum debacle, I recently came across a post suggesting that if one was using a gvinum based swap partition, a particular entry was required in a configuration file. For the life of me, I can't find this specific post again, (I think it was on one of the freebsd mailing lists), and I don't remember either the specific entry, or whether it referred to loader.conf or rc.conf. I know the above is pretty vague, but if anyone can tell me what needs to be set (if anything), other than placing: geom_vinum_load=YES in /boot/loader.conf, I'd really appreciate it.

Re: portupgrade perl and openwebmail
If you have just gone from a 5.8.1 version of Perl to the current 5.8.5, you are probably running into the following: (From the Openwebmail README file at http://www.openwebmail.org/openwebmail/doc/readme.txt ) If you are using FreeBSD and your perl is compiled from port, then please note that the SUID support is disabled by default since the port for perl 5.8.1 or later You need to do 'make -DENABLE_SUIDPERL' in making port Lapo On Dec 15, 2004, at 2:50 PM, Noah Garrett Wallach wrote: FreeBSD-4.9 perl-5.8.5 openwebmail-2.41 just portupgraded perl now I am having difficulties reinitializing openwebmail.pl any clues on this? --- snip --- # /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/openwebmail-tool.pl --init Args must match #! line at /dev/fd/9 line 1. speedy_backend[44225]: perl_parse error speedy[44223]: Cannot spawn backend process --- snip - Noah ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
