We made it just straight through for now in order to prove that it worked. We will make a proper null-modem cable next week. ---Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message

Wouldn't be surprising. I've tried all sorts of combinations of hooking various lines together - some work better than others. I usually tie RTS & CTS together at the Rocketport end, and only use TX, RX, and GND on the remote server end... At least for FreeBSD consoles... mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message

At this point, I'm pretty paranoid about changes to the ata(4) driver that aren't bugfixes. We got bit rather badly for 4.6, and I'd just as soon not inflict a similar experience on 4.7 users. Opinions among the REs were mixed when this issue came up a few weeks ago. (I'd be very happy to see atapicam in 4.7-STABLE, however.) Bruce. msg49558/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

OK, well you should take a look at the ports collection and notify the maintainer of any ports you discover to be out of date. Kris msg49556/pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: -STABLE Frozen for 4.7
My point was for those developers using FreeBSD for OpenGL and other desktop work where having an updated and stable GUI is nice. I would think Gnome 2.0.1 and KDE 3.0.3 would be used used over many ports/packages in the distro. OpenSSH/OpenSSL are security concerns not taken lightly by network people. Updated stable web browsers is a no brainer as well as good FTP client/server and networking software (ie. TCPDUMP, traceroute). I was just thinking of several FBSD releases that a few ports/packages were not upgraded after several stable releases. So it was just a concern if we took a little time and effort to scan through the ports/packages and just "mention" an outdated version to the right people. Hopefully, it'll get add before the official release of v4.7. -K P.S.

RE: Sendmail refusing periodic script output
I just upgraded a machine to 4.6.2 stable from 4.2 Release. First I downloaded the ISO and then booted from it, following the upgrade instructions from sysinstall. It failed, but then I was able to do a make world. I had to use the "-k" option. The only complaint I have is with the sendmail upgrade was that "make world" overwrote a "hacked" Sendmail configuration that was previously working for me behind NAT, and the new sendmail did not process clientmqueue correctly. My mail is back up, but I'm using a NetBSD box to do it The new sendmail did not work with my setup. I'm not sure why, but it would not process my local mail. It either reported bad permissions on /var/spool/clientmqueue with "permission denied" for the smmsp user, or it would fail with a strange looping error. Ultimately I think my DNS was not technically correct and the new Sendmail didn't like forwarding to the loopback interface. I also added a second ethernet card to the box, and that may have been the real source of my sendmail problems. I decided it's time for me to get caught up with the latest changes to STABLE in order to piece it all together. But I've got no complaints so far.

RE: Wi drivers
I have seen the same problem since 4.6.1. I CVSed up to 4.6.2-STABLE as of 6 days ago and still see the problem. I am using a PCMCIA SMC2632W on a Toshiba laptop. So far it seems to happen when there is no carrier and some packets are sent to the driver. I run dhcp on that interface so the dhclient will case the problem as it tries to poll the network. It seem to get stuck on a polling or interupt loop and consume all the CPU. If I kill the dhclient then it will run for a lot longer until some thing else tries use the interface. It doesn't seem to happen all the time.
