Re: How to install Tomcat 7
Thanks to you all for your help! That hint below worked fine. Cheers, Andy On 21/02/2011 9:06 PM, Michael Powell wrote: Repair the damage you've done to /usr/ports/www/tomcat7. You can just rm -rf the entire directory and a ports tree refresh will fix it for you. Then change into /usr/ports/www/tomcat6 and do make deinstall. This removes Tomcat 6. Then cd to /usr/ports/www/tomcat7 and do make install clean. You do not need to be concerned with downloading the tarball, the port will fetch it for you. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I assume root since Daniel's command doesn't specify any users? If you're not planning to use procmail to deliver your mail, you don't need to worry about a procmailrc file. The reason to install procmail was to get formail, which does not use the procmailrc file. That would mean I'm logged in as root, run the command, formail sends all mails to procmail which sees the alias in procmail rc and sends the mails out? Correct?

But after that I have to call reboot like /sbin/reboot.
How can I change that without changing the shell. :)

I have a non root login for regular stuff.
To me the .profile looks ok, and I can't really say why it doesn't work.
However, do not use a shell that's not in the base system for root. Some
would point security issues, but I don't know much about those when it
comes to bash, however, if you need to boot into single user, you may
get into troubles with a shell not in base.

If you activate toor, you can log in as toor, use bash, and yet you are root (try whoami as toor).

On Tue, Feb 22, 2011 at 05:58:22PM +0100, Alokat wrote: Paul has satisfied me. I have changed back to csh. Your system should have a toor account as well. It is just a second root account, whose essential purpose is to provide a root account that you can fiddle with to your heart's content without endangering the main root account. Note that the toor account can break things on the system just as much as the root account; if you break the toor account itself, though, you still have access to the main root account to get yourself out of trouble. Thus, if you *really* want a superuser account with bash as its default shell, you can always use toor for that purpose. I don't much see the point in setting a superuser account to use bash anyway -- or any other account, really -- but the option is there if you must have it. Just don't change the shell for the root account itself that way; it's bad for you, with lots of fatty calories, preservatives, artificial sweeteners, and other stuff your body should not be ingesting on a regular basis. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] pgpQg5oXnDcAV.pgp Description: PGP signature
