resolver workaround conceptually possible ?

2002-07-16 Thread Patrick Thomas
I am under the impression that at this time there is no workaround for the resolver problem - you are forced to reinstall or upgrade. I am curious though, is it at least conceptually possible that there could be a workaround ? If so, what would it entail ? thanks - pt To Unsubscribe: send ma

a real workaround means: setting resolver.conf to point to 127.0.0.1 running a local copy of bind-9 as a forwarding server. bind-9 rebuilds requests and answers it forwards.. bind-8 just passes them through. On Tue, 16 Jul 2002, Patrick Thomas wrote: > > I am under the impression that at this

Re: resolver workaround conceptually possible ?

2002-07-16 Thread Patrick Thomas
Understood. That's not very painful at all - I assume any new version of bind9 will work then. Is there a reason this workaround couldn't be added to the freebsd-security advisory ? Currently it states there is no workaround, and this is a very nice one... Also, you meant resolv.conf, right ?

Linker sets portability

2002-07-16 Thread Taavi Talvik
Probably this belongs to questions, but anyway: How portable is idea of using linker sets? Is it possible to use them (maybe using some preprocessor wizardry) on linux/solaris/win/etc? Do they have somewhat similiar facilities? best regards, taavi To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED

forum for discussing 'make release' issues

Can someone suggest the be FreeBSD mailing list wherein I could explore issues I'm having with trying to build a 4.6-STABLE release on a 4.5-RELEASE box? I don't know if this is a -hackers question, or a -stable question, or what. (I've looked at the list of lists majordomo knows about, and I do

dump on mounted fs

2002-07-16 Thread Mark W. Krentel
Dump still works on a mounted file system in Freebsd, right? That is, a write that completes before dump is started will be in the dump, even if the data is in memory? I don't mean writing to a file during the dump, that's a separate problem. I only recently learned that this doesn't work in Li
