Re: PPTP VPN
I've looked all over the Web and tried things and nothing worked right. And I still don't understand what's going on. What does pppd do, and what does pptp do? Why are they separate? There is a package "ssh-ip-tunnel-1.0nb1 = Simple VPN system using pppd over ssh". I can ssh into the box. Can I use this and get the same IP address that I'm supposed to get with pppd and pptp? Do I have to log in as root? Pierre -- li ze te'a ci vu'u ci bi'e te'a mu du li ci su'i ze te'a mu bi'e vu'u ci
Re: What happened to branches other than dragonfly-2010Q3
There's tarballs (or bzip, etc.) for recent branches and pkgsrc-current at ftp.netbsd.org. For example ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/pkgsrc-2011Q2/ Plus Matthias pointed out you can grab from github too.

That would be redundant now that there's https://github.com/jsonn/pkgsrc – Github already offers automatic .tar.gz and .zip snapshots of all branches. -m.

It would be easier to pull through http/ftp since it can be resumed? I said because I guess it is what OpenBSD does http://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/ Is that going to be too difficult to automate? Or is there already such setup some where?

In this case it definitely will – the repos were created by completely different scripts and ways (they convert CVS -> Fossil -> git AFAIK), so the commit IDs won't match. In general, adding another clone of the *same* repo as a git remote works fine (e.g. you have a clone of dragonfly.git on your home server, clone that on your workstation, then add the git.dragonflybsd.org or leaf repos). But the NetBSD pkgsrc git mirror and the DragonFly git mirror have to be considered completely separate. -m.

Re: What happened to branches other than dragonfly-2010Q3
I've seen a number of people say they get errors when downloading dragonfly pkgsrc via git. I don't know what's causing it, but 2 workaround for now would be to either grab it the old-fashioned way via CVS: (assuming tcsh) setenv CVSROOT anon...@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot setenv CVS_RSH ssh cd /usr cvs -q checkout -rpkgsrc-2011Q1 -P pkgsrc Or switch to Joerg Sonnenberger's git : (warning, this is off the top of my head; untested) in /usr/pkgsrc: git remote add github https://github.com/jsonn/pkgsrc.git git fetch github git branch pkgsrc-2011Q1 github/pkgsrc-2011Q1 git checkout pkgsrc-2011Q1 git pull I'm curious to see if git chokes when downloading from a different source...

What happened to branches other than dragonfly-2010Q3
Hi, When I list remote branches in the newly checked out repository it show only dfly-blkbuild# git branch -r origin/dragonfly-2010Q3 origin/dragonfly-master origin/master but in an older pkgsrc it shows dfly-bkpsrv# git branch -r origin/dragonfly-2010Q3 origin/dragonfly-master origin/master origin/pkgsrc-2010Q1 origin/pkgsrc-2010Q2 origin/pkgsrc-2010Q3 origin/pkgsrc-2010Q4 origin/pkgsrc-2011Q1 How Do I get origin/pkgsrc-2010Q1 in the new one? The new one gave this error too dfly-blkbuild# git pull >From git://git.dragonflybsd.org/pkgsrcv2 * [new branch] dragonfly-master -> origin/dragonfly-master * [new branch] master -> origin/master Bus error (core dumped) Thanks --Siju

IMHO basic network configuration for both IPv4 and IPv6 during installation, offering a choice between DHCP and static for the v4 stack and DHCPv6, router advertisements and static configuration for v6, would cover 99% of all cases.

Okay, now I found them :) I got a bit confused by the mirrors page that had ftp.dragonflybsd.org listed under crater when it in fact points to avalon. I've corrected this on the mirrors page. Max
