Is there a trick to fool freebsd-update into overwriting this file which I don't think I touched? It would be nice if freebsd-update could be more helpful about what the user should do next when it finds an error. Thanks Ari uname only reports the kernel info. I don't remember if the p6-8 updates touched anything in the kernel, so the kernel probably wasn't rebuilt. You can check in the file /usr/src/sys/conf/newvers.sh, there is a variable named BRANCH. That should tell you which was your last update.

nfsv4 strangeness
Greetings fellow list-mates. I have been trying to set up a zfs filesystem in order to share it over the network using nfs. The filesystem was easy enough to set up. As long I was using nfsv3, everything was in order. I was able to mount the share (from my archlinux desktop pc). My headaches started when I tried to enable the nfsv4 server. When I added nfsv4_server_enable=YES to the rc.conf file, I started getting errors and I could not mount the share at all. Right now, the output I get while mounting is: mount.nfs4: timeout set for Tue Jul 27 06:14:56 2010 mount.nfs4: trying text-based options 'addr=192.168.2.100,clientaddr=192.168.2.64' mount.nfs4: mount(2): Permission denied mount.nfs4: access denied by server while mounting files:/temper The last line suggests that it is the server's fault, and that's why I'm here. After searching the web for any clue I admit I haven't found a thing. The server is running 8.1-RELEASE amd64 with the generic kernel. More or less all files are the ones that come with the default installation. As for the filesystem: [r...@files ~]# zfs get sharenfs temper NAMEPROPERTY VALUE SOURCE temper sharenfs onlocal All pointers are welcome. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I've been messing around with permissions, but no luck so far. Anyone got a clue? Skaerris i'm not sure, but my guess is that there isn't. scrubbing a pool can put a stress to your system. Especially if there is resilvering to be done. So even if there is a way, I'd suggest against it as a security measure. just my .02$ ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
