Re: Periodic Scripts - Configuration problem?

Mail works fine for all users, this just affects the periodic scripts. I have tried grep'ing for the incorrect hostname in the /etc/periodic/blah... But haven't found anything. the easiest thing to check right now is the output of hostname. also, i *think* that the periodic scripts send mail to root (i.e., they don't add the domain), so perhaps sendmail is adding this? try: # sendmail -bv root if that is the case, check /etc/mail/sendmail.cf for the hardcoded hostname, or give sendmail a bit of -HUP (make restart in /etc/mail) hope this helps ~jon - Yesterday upon the stair I saw a man who wasn't there, he wasn't there again today, oh how i wish he'd go away Rev.

Eric - this should have been sent to -questions, but i'm getting used to a new mailer (thunderbird), and i'm an idiot. Eric Anderson wrote: **big snip** **/me hides in shame for being stupid again** pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: HEADS UP: /bin and /sbin are now dynamically linked
For a *lot* of people today (like home users), an up-to-date FreeBSD CD or floppy or a second machine to create the disk on may not be handy (and forget about NFS), but a network connection may still be available. That network connection would most likely be a M$-Win box in that case, which doesn't have an FTP server. Samba, not an FTP client should be in /rescue then. # ftp ftp.freebsd.org get blah/blah/blah/release/bin.tgz # tar xzvf seems like a damn easy fix for killing /bin and /sbin i like the idea of having a tiny (re: non-ssl) fetch availble for when i shoot myself in the foot. would be incredibly helpful. And while in my current configurations, live cd or NFS are also options, sometimes fetch is going to be faster, and if it's a production machine, time is money. In a perfect world, I'd never hose a production machine, but... ~j ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] = Yesterday upon the stair I saw a man who wasn't there, he wasn't there again today, oh how i wish he'd go away Rev.
