I am creating a simple network bridge (as described in
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-bridging.html)
which consists of 5 network interface cards. Function-wise, it's
basically acting as a switch. However, I want to assign an IP address
to the machine with the 5

I'm setting up my FreeBSD computer (which has multiple NICs) to act as
a home router (and DNS server and a few other things, but that's not
important for this email). I have done this before, but then my hard
drive broke and I have to do this all again. So, I have a few
questions just to confirm
I mistyped "netmask" as "network" in my email.
But removing that second line like you said fixes the problem. Thanks.

Are you missing a quote on the ip address line? What does ifconfig output?

Has anyone had any luck using the -T option with GNU tar 1.16.1?
I am using the following command line.
/usr/local/gtar/bin/tar -c -T filelist -f - | dd of=/dev/nsa1 obs=128k

I use the -T option or --files-from=. If I re

This is typically either due either to broken SRV support in DNS, or
the absence of full dns on a private network behind proxies. Perhaps
you need to set
Thanks for the help, I figured out the [likely] answer and included it at the

I seem to have found the answer to my own question.
The question was:
How do I prevent the boot2 bootstrap step from displaying a prompt
where the user can load a custom boot program and/or force booting
with options such as single user mode?
The answer that seems to work for me:
Add "-n" to /boo

Be happy that there at least is an info manual. In many cases, there
is NO local documentation, neither in man or info format.

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has tried updating from mod_security 2.5.9 to
2.5.9_1 via portupgrade.
It fails with a "linker error" for me.
Stop in /usr/ports/www/mod_security.

I thought I'd give freebsd-update a try since I run a GENERIC kernel.
mobius# freebsd-update -s update.freebsd.org fetch
Looking up update.freebsd.org mirrors... none found.
Fetching public key from update.freebsd.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.

I do have a support contract and I'm going to dump this right in their
