So the setting isn't requested via /etc/rc.d/sysctl at startup (which reads from /etc/sysctl.conf), but from another service. If it was, # /etc/rc.d/sysctl restart would lead to the same error message > The message is displayed just > before the 'login' prompt. As RW mentioned, "Do you have apache?", is there something like Starting additional deamons: apache sysctl: unknown oid 'net.fibs' > How can I determine what program is causing this to occur? What's "near" the error message? Usually the startup notification prior to this message should identify the program that causes this message. -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I assume that the patch listed above will be incorporated into the port shortly.

I could not find any mention of it in the 'route.h' file, nor is there anything in the 'sysctl.conf' file. The message is displayed just before the 'login' prompt.

Maybe you have a setting of net.fibs in /etc/sysctl.conf, or maybe this is a value set by some software package? % sysctl net.fibs net.fibs: 1 In /usr/include/net/route.h, something regarding FIBS is mentioned... -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
"SYSCTL" error message upon bootup
For no apparent reason, the following error message has suddenly started showing up when I reboot the machine: sysctl: unknown oid 'net.fibs' I am running FBSD-6.3 presently. Is this error important and if so, what can I do to correct it? Thanks! -- Gerard [EMAIL PROTECTED] All extremists should be taken out and shot. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
