 It should probably be created as an empty file.

True. In this case, it was less interpreting it as a binary file and
asking if I still wanted to look at it.

What Does the Install Put In /var/log/security?

2003-10-31 Thread billg
I've been playing with a new install of 4.8-release (now 4.9-stable).
I've set up a simple ipfw firewall.  Before enabling firewall logging, I
thought I noticed that /var/log/security was a binary file.

Is that right?  What is installed there by default? Thanks.

XFree86-4-clients Build Failing

XFree86-4-clients is failing to compile, producing this output:

This follows the first ports update on a new 4.8-release machine. The
linker can't seem to find Xfont.  Neither can I.

I'd appreciate a point in the right direction. Thanks.
