hi patrick, If I remember correctly there was no password file for in the jail. I think you have to rerun a certain command. Of course I do not remember the command :( The command should create the master password database. using the ServiceJail model, after populating the jail skeleton and

hi, You have perl modules installed, that have no corresponding installed FreeBSD port. i do not use BSDPAN -- it's sloppy about its dependency mgmt. as i do on every other os/platform, i use ONLY native cpan/cpanp. i have dozens of cpan-installed perl-modules. cpan/cpanp manage the

Re: request add db45/db46 support to mail/exim port

2007-08-11 Thread snowcrash+freebsd
I have now fixed it so that the exim port doesn't need to set WITH_BDB_VER?=1 anymore. Instead setting either WITH_BDB or WITH_BDB_VER 1 will make the port use Mk/bsd.database.mk to choose the version of BDB to use, otherwise it will default to the system BDB. The updated patch is in PR

hi, Hello, it's your niggly proofreader :-D (and fellow Stephenson fan) !! If you really have that blank line before 'add default HISADDR' above, then it marks the end of your default section. The 'add default' and the two lines following will not be executed. I expect you'll want the

well, per Ian's catch/suggestion, removing the 'blank line' from my ppp.conf, and moving, add default HISADDR to the ppp1: connection stanza seems to have done the trick! pf loads properly on reboot. swithc it back, and it does not. so, guessing, it's the lack of a default root as a result

hi, I'm not sure there is, I've had a similar problem like this before, and I got around it by writing a simple script that would try and ping a local site 4 times, and if no responses got back it would killall ppp and delete the default routes and tell ppp to reconnect. It worked quite well
