What is keeping the snapshots from being created?

   IIUC (If I Understand Correctly), the boot floppy images are too

I recently sent in a patch for this (compress loader, rm /boot/boot?
files) - see:

seems like someone's working on it.

It was right, but already fixed[1]. Minimal release set (no additional
docs, including relnotes) works fine since Jul/29/2001 JST[2].

 weirdness with DNS


 Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2001 12:06:35 -0400 (EDT)
 From: Matt Heckaman [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Subject: weirdness with DNS
 
 - -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
 Hash: SHA1
 


 I started seeing this a long time ago, but since it doesn't break anything
 (well, not really) I never got around to writing this email about it. I
 have a machine running 4.3-STABLE as of April 21 2001. When I do a DNS
 lookup on a host that does not exist, it postfixes my domain onto the
 lookup instead of saying Unknown host... At first, I thought there was a
 wildcard DNS entry for lucida.ca, but there isn't. This does not occur
 from any other machines on the LAN, all of which use the same nameservers.

The only time I recall seeing this is when I had a missing .
somewhere in the file.  Get 'nslint' from the ports and run that
against your DNS to see if you don't spot a problem.

how about patch -p  ~/openssl.patch?
this way it tries to read a patch from stdin, and will wait for io
forever till you press ctrl-d or such :)

kdm startup script freaks out keyboard

2001-07-31 Thread Steve Dobbs

I wrote a little startup script to automatically launch kdm upon boot, and
put it in the /usr/local/etc/rc.d directory, and it works fine when I run it
as root when the machine is up, but when I boot and let the script get
launched automatically, kdm comes up, but the keyboard stops functioning
properly.  (I can ctl-alt-delete, but I can't switch out switch out to
another virtual terminal, I can't ctl-alt-break, and I can't type any
letters).  I'm running KDE 2.1.1 on FreeBSD 4.3 RELEASE.

new openssl patch issue...

2001-07-31 Thread Daniel Frazier

the instructions say to cd to /usr/src/lib/libcrypto/ after applying
the patch, but that dir doesn't exist on my servers.  There is,
however, a /usr/src/lib/libcrypt/ dir.  Was this just a typo or should
/usr/src/lib/libcrypto/ exist?

Sounds like it doesn't like being launched early, so try delaying it a bit.
(Like replace kdm with sh -c 'sleep 30  kdm' . If that works try
lowering the sleep time a bit so you don't have to wait so long..)

See the thread on -security, the correct directory is
/usr/src/secure/lib/libcrypto.
