Re: a binary package update
Hi, I have package-1.0 installed and want to update to package-2.0 using package-2.0.tbz package file. This binary package is at /var/tmp/packages/All. I have no /usr/ports directory export PKG_PATH=/var/tmp/packages/All export PKG_FETCH=/usr/bin/false portupgrade -PP postgresql-server ** Port directory not found: databases/postgresql83-server ** Listing the failed packages (-:ignored / *:skipped / !:failed) - databases/postgresql83-server (port directory error) Do I need to have /usr/ports/ installed on that system? I just want to upgrade to package-2.0.tbz without having anything related to Ports ( /usr/ports) on my systems? Just like a rpm -Uhv package-2.0.rpm on Linux. Can someone enlighten me on how to do that with portupgrade? Or maybe with another tool on FreeBSD? Regards.

However, you can update an installed port or package; in most cases, it doesn't even matter if you installed from a port or from a package. [...] for example I have a package-1.0.tbz and I have downloaded package-2.0.tbz. What I want is to update a installed 1.0 package to 2.0 without internet connection. Is is relatively easy, but you need to make sure first that you have all the dependencies for package-2.0, for example libdep-1.3, depend-3.2.1 and libfoo-0.22.7. You first need to fetch them. Now a question: The system that has internet access: Do you want to install the new packages there, too? I have portupgrade-2.4.6_2,2 installed on my system. If you answered the question with yes, then portupgrade can do it for you. Simply update package-1.0 to package-2.0 and let portupgrade create packages (-p). You can then transfer those packages to the other system which can't fetch them by itself. But if you answered no, the task would be as follows: Get the newest version of a package along with all those packages this new version depends on. In order to do so, you may use the simple (and ugly) shell script I attached. It uses pkg_add to fetch those packages, but it does NOT install anything. -- Polytropon From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ 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

mount_nfs and fstab options
Hi, I have mounted an NFS share like: mount_nfs -LisT 10.10.10.199:/vol/share /mnt but I can't use -LisT on fstab because man mount_nfs states: Historic -o Options Use of these options is deprecated, they are only mentioned here for compatibility with historic versions of mount_nfs. bg Same as -b. fg Same as not specifying -b. conn Same as not specifying -c. dumbtimer Same as -d. intr Same as -i. lockd Same as not specifying -L. nfsv2 Same as -2. nfsv3 Same as -3. rdirplus Same as -l. mntudp Same as -U. resvport Same as -P. soft Same as -s. hard Same as not specifying -s. tcpSame as -T. Thus since I can't give this in -o section at fstab how can I use -List at fstab .. I have used rw,lockd,intr,soft,tcp but that didn't work: 10.10.10.199:/vol/share/mnt nfsrw,lockd,intr,soft,tcp 0 0 Regards. ___ 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
audit not working
Hi, I am trying to have audit logs but i can't and frankly I couldn't able to find out what is wrong with my conf files: audit_control: dir:/var/audit flags:lo,+ex minfree:20 naflags:lo policy:cnt,argv filesz:0 audit_warn: logger -p security.warning audit warning: $@ # # Compress audit trail files on close. # if [ $1 = closefile ]; then gzip -9 $2 fi my audit_user file is empty and all other 2 files are untouched. But only line I get is: header,93,10,audit startup,0,Tue Jan 27 22:34:14 2009, + 916 msec subject,root,root,wheel,root,wheel,1571,1571,0,0.0.0.0 text,auditd::Audit startup return,success,0 trailer,93 praudit /dev/auditpipe also doesn't give me real time logs. One last point is that sometimes with the configuration above i get some command execution lines but not all of them so I could't figure out what is wrong with my config. I appreciate if someone in this list can help me.
