freebsd and mailman groups
I have just about got mailman working, but have the following error in /var/log/maillog: Aug 6 13:42:22 lorax Mailman mail-wrapper: Group mismatch error. Mailman expected the mail wrapper script to be executed as group mailnull, but the system's mail server executed the mail script as group mail. Try tweaking the mail server to run the script as group mailnull, or re-run configure, providing the command line option `--with-mail-gid=mail'. I was hoping for some advice as to easiest way to fix this. I'm always nervous when something says try tweaking the mail server, but I don't want to re-run ./configure if it will mess up something that I have already set up... Thanks, -- Kirk R.

mailman install and setup
I am trying to get a mailman list running on freebsd 5.0. I am confused as to which pre-install tasks need to be done before doing a 'make install' (or in my case... a make deinstall, make reinstall) on mailman. Here is what I've done so far: (1) adduser mailman (2) built apache13 (3) added the lines to attpd.conf: ScriptAlias /mailman /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin Alias /pipermail /usr/local/mailman/archives/public (4) build mailman with default settings However, I'm getting a 'You don't have permission to access /mailman on this server.' message from apache, and I'm concerned that I still need to do something with Exim. I did go ahead and build Exim (with default settings), but I'm wondering if there is some config that I still need to do with Exim? Also, am I doing this in the right order? Thanks Kirk -- Kirk R.

intalling from cds
I ran into a strange issue while trying to do a cd install from the 5.0-RELEASE cds. After booting from the cd, the install skips the kernel configuration menue completely (I've never seen that before), then jumps right into sysinsall. I select 'standard install', and I see the folloing: afd0 da0 da1 adf0 is a zip250 drive on this box. Why is that showing up here? If I choose to use the entire disk on da0 and da1 (no dual boot concerns), and install the 'standard mbr' on the da0, I seem to be stuck going back to the 'choose the drive' afd0 da0 da1 menue without getting to the the disklable editor What am I doing wrong? thanks ps... sorry for cross posting, but I wasn't sure which group this fell to the best...

4.7-5.0, ran out of space on /
I just ran into a problem trying to install the 5.0 world. I thought I checked and had 30M free on / before I started this. However, after building, the world, building the kernel, installing the kernel, running mergemaster -p, I went to install the world and got the error 'out of space on /' I need to find some room, but I'm a little nervous about what I can rm. Here is what I'm looking at: 1) / partition is 79M, 64M are used (I was almost sure there was more room than that on / before I satarted). 2) /tmp is on it's own partition 3) du -h on subdirectories breakdown like this. a. 18M /boot b. 1.4M /etc c. 3.7M /kernel d. 3.9M /kern.GENERIC e. 6M /modules f. 21M /sbin g. 2.1M /stand as you can see that pretty much accounts for it. The rest of the stuff is pretty small. I need to know if I can delete any of this stuff and still successfully do a 'make installworld'? Thanks, Kirk Ps... sorry about cross posting (I wasn't sure if 5-release qualified for the stable list) To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
patching a file
I have a patch that should fix a build problem with one of freebsd's ports, pybliographer. The patch needs to be applied to recode-3.6_1 to make it compatable with pybliographer (which requires recode 3.5 exactly). I want to test this patch out on my system, to see if it does all it claims to do... Problem is, I confused over how to apply a patch to something in the ports system. My ports tree is up to date, but I dont't see the source in /usr/ports/converters/recode that the patch should be applied to. Also, running file on /usr/ports/distfiles/recode-3.6.tar.gz returns file is empty. I thought that I could unpack the tarball manually apply the patch, then tar it back up and build the port. I seem to be all wet on this. Can anyone get me started on this noble errand? Thanks, -- Kirk R.

pybliographer does not install with pkg_add
Is pybliographer available as a package (I'm getting tired of fighting with the port)?

lyx question
I recently added textcomp.sty to my lyx configuration to enable the degreecelsius symbol. However, I kept getting an error when I tired to use \textcelsius in a .lyx document. No make matters more confusion, other symbols that are part of the textcomp package worked fine (e.g. \textdegree, \textdagger, etc.). With the kind help of H. Voss, I discovered an conundrum. Mr. Voss sent me a .lyx file with a single \textcelsius command (textcelsius.yes.lyx) that he created on his 1.2.1 lyx. My version of lyx (1.2.1_1 from freebsd ports) can open it, and display a div with no errors. However, a file that I create on my machine with the same single \textcelsius command, yields an error when I try and display the dvi. I have attached both files. Are there any lyx users that can shed some light on this situation? Thanks, Kirk -- Kirk R. Wythers [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Minnesota #LyX 1.2 created this file.

dual boot install
I have a dual boot redhat/win98 box at home that I boot with lilo. I'd like to replace redhat with freebsd. My main concern is getting rid of lilo, so that I can use the freebsd bootloader to choose between windows and freesd. I'm not sure how a freebsd install will treat lilo. Will the freebsd simply overwrite lilo and alow me to choose between windows and freebsd? or creat some crazy double boot loader situation? I'm looking for a little wisdom regarding how to prepare for a freebsd install with out messing up the windows partitions (C and D with a ext2 linux partion between them). Should I reinstall the windows bootloader first? Thanks Kirk To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
