Hi Colin,
Thanks for your reply.
> What makes you think that the crypto code is missing?
When I try to install www/apache20 from ports, I get this error:
Dependency error: this port requires the OpenSSL library, which is part of
the FreeBSD crypto distribution but not installed on your
machine.
Hello,
I've been using freebsd-update for some time now and it's been fantastic. I
recently used Colin's upgrade script[1] to upgrade to 6.2-RELEASE, but it seems
that the crypto distribution is now missing from my system.
With previous versions of freebsd-update I would have used --branch, but l
Hi all,
I'm using security/openssh-portable to provide chroot-ssh, but would now also
like to enable PAM for SSH so that I can take advantage of OPIE in certain
scenarios.
I've compiled openssh-portable with the PAM option (and something PAM-related
flashes by during 'configure'), and have Challe

In the end, I tried just rebooting the host, which fixed the problem. Thanks to
Tom for emailing me :-)

I have three jails on one machine that won't resolve DNS because it looks as

The host is working fine. Can anyone explain why the jails aren't being assigned
IPs? Wo

Thanks for your reply Greg.
From experience I've found that MySQL usually looks for /etc/my.cnf, and

Great, thanks Colin. Any tips as to where I might have gone wrong in the
meantime? I followed the upgrade instructions for 5.4 -> 6.0, just using the 6.1
ISO instead.

Understood; but Colin Percival (freebsd-update's author) does publish

...AFAIK I haven't altered these files. How can I force

I think I fixed it guys, thanks for all of your help.
Syslogd was choking because /var/log/messages didn't exist. I touched that,
restarted and all was working again. I did the same for the others (auth.log
etc), and things seem ok now.
Many thanks,
Matt :)

Hi,
The usual system logs such as /var/log/messages are not being saved.
/var/log/messages does not exist, but /var/log/messages.0 (the old rotated
version) does.
I've tried a 'tail /dev/klog' and it returns 'device busy'. syslogd -dv isn't
returning anything useful either.
I'd be very grateful
Hi,
I'm using EZJail (http://erdgeist.org/arts/software/ezjail/) on FreeBSD 6.0.
EZJail uses the /etc/rc.d/jail mechanism.
My problem is that whilst I can start a jail using the 'jail' command manually
(and type commands, start services etc in the jail), when I try to start it with
/etc/rc.d/jail
Hi,
I'm looking for a stable filesystem that implements integrity checks using file
checksums (aren't we all?).
Is anyone aware of a ZFS/NILFS equivalent for FreeBSD? I know DragonFlyBSD plan
to port ZFS, and NILFS is Linux only. Is there another option currently
available for FreeBSD?
