make release
Hello there! I just read FAQ on making release and have one question. FAQ says I must be having full CVS source tree (or be able to access it via CVSROOT), but I'm behind modem connection. So I'm curious why it is not enough to have a cvsupped src-all/doc-all/ports-all collections? And is there a way to avoid loading CVS tree for making release and generate it from these collections? # Alexey PS. The goal is to make a CD with a 5.0 snapshot to install it at home (where I have no internet access) and keep it up-to-date by later burning cvsuppable collections on a CD-RW at work. -+-- "May the Sun and Water gently| mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] fall upon you!"

sysctl / CTL_DEBUG
hello there! There is the following phrase in sysctl(3) manpage: == The system defines twenty (struct ctldebug) variables named debug0 through debug19. == Though `sysctl debug | wc -l` shows 43 sysctl variables. And, I was unable to locate definition of 'struct ctldebug' neither in /usr/include/sys/sysctl.h (as promised by man page) nor in source tree. May I ask for clarifications? -+-- May the Sun and Water always| Regards, Alexey V. Neyman fall upon you!

Unfortunately I had to make this system working in any way before I could do any diagnose, and it was completely rebuilt to RELENG_4. But, your case seems to be another. I'm facing the same problems with ssh on -current, though it's not a production machine but my home workstation, so I'm able to tweak it as I like. When 5.0-current was just installed, it booted ok, but when it was recompiled and installed (make world), it began to show these messages.

Re: no more 'root' account on my machine...
Hello there! First, did you edit /etc/passwd or /etc/master.passwd ? passwd does not hold any passwords and serves only for resolving name/uid/fullname references, while master.passwd holds actual passwords. Second, did you run pwd_mkdb(8) after editing that file? This should be enough IMHO. Regards, Alexey. -+-- Does the fish swallow the stone? | Regards, Alexey V.

strange code?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Hello there!
I've stumbled accross the following in sys/netinet/ip_input.c (v.1.173)
- --- lines 470-477 ---
if (m == NULL) {/* Packet discarded by firewall */
static int __debug=10;
if (__debug 0) {
printf(firewall returns NULL, please update!\n);
__debug-- ;
}
return;
}
What is the meaning of this construct? Isn't it functionally equivalent to
if (m == NULL) { /* Packet discarded by firewall */
printf(firewall returns NULL, please update!\n);
return;
}
Regards,
Alexey.

please review the manpage
Hello there! Excuse me if this is a wrong list for such submissions. A suggested manpage for EVENTHANDLER(9) is attached. It should be referenced from boot(9) instead of non-existent at_shutdown(9). at_shutdown(9) was retired even before 4.0-R, however, it's still referenced from boot(9) in -stable. By the way, is there any reason for at_fork/at_exec function not to be retired in favor of EVENTHANDLER_XXX macros? Regards, Alexey. -- - ) May the Sun and Water ( Regards, Alexey V.
