portaudit question
Is there something that I am not updating that portaudit would like to see done or is this just a generic warning. Either way, please provide examples of what I might due to have it stop complaining. I can find no examples googling the portaudit note below. # Here's what I did.

RE: php4-cli or mod_php4
By installing php4-extensions it will auto to using mod_php with apache. I have never had a lick of trouble with apache 1.3 and the above mentioned set-up. Although, as the message states many have complained of trouble with 2. I recommend installing mysql 1st, apache 1.3 2nd, then the php4-extensions. Best, Thomas S.

RE: Dell Servers
I had no problem running 4.10 on Dell power edge, so I'm sure 5.3 would work fine also. Best, Thomas S.

Port 53 requests happening a few times per second
Here is the situation, I run bind as a root nameserver and all appears to be operating normally (no apparent problems). But, log_in_vain is reporting to messages a few times per second that port 53 is being queried and nothing appears to be listing on it. I monitored my forwarders ip addresses and they reply fine. I found a reference to search for bind timeout problem, but could find nothing that looked like any help. Any ideas?

RE: Updating packages list (using cvsup?)
Packages are pre-compiled so there is little ability to configure them, should you need to. Although I still know many people who prefer using packages. Do not use sysinstall to accomplish this. Also, there is no need to 'download or update' your 'packages'. Simply follow the below command to install the current package. # pkg_add -r some_package I would recommend ports and cvs to anyone. Below is a config to install cvsup and run it to update your ports collection. Remember though, ports are not precompiled and you will actually need to move into the /usr/ports/whatever_port/whatever_program dir to install them. # pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui # cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile /root/ports-supfile // change 'changethis' to cvsup2, cvsup3, etc. # ee /root/ports-supfile // REBOOT SERVER # shutdown -r now // Run CVsup to make ports current. (will take approx. 1 hour over broadband) # cvsup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile Also there is a wealth of information in the FreeBSD handbook and I would consider giving that a read. Best, Thomas S. Crum -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Olaf Greve Sent: Friday, November 26, 2004 8:45 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Updating packages list (using cvsup?) Hi all, I was wondering about a thingy. Whenever I use sysinstall to add a package, the list seems to be constantly the same (i.e. often outdated), whereas more recent versions should be available of several of the packages. Of course I can manually d/l the packages and if necessary compile them and install them, but I have also heard of the possibility of using cvsup to automatically update the packages tree. Now, I have installed cvsup, and I quickly browsed over the man pages (I have to admit that I have not yet been able to spend much time on this), but I was wondering if this is really the best way to go. Sure, it does automatically update collections, etc., but is this really the handiest tool out there for this particular task? If not, can anyone please name me an alternative (approach)? If it is, OTOH, can anyone please give me some quick pointers for setting this up correctly, and/or point me to a page where this process is explained. Thanks in advance, and cheers!
