tcsh script: quote and spaces problems
Hello, I've been trying to include the quote () characters and spaces into a tcsh script variable; for already two days I've been trying various ways doing this to no avail! I'm about to think that it is impossible. For example: #!/bin/tcsh set flag=-f t This obviously doesn't work because of too many quotes involved; but what does work to achieve this? There are two problems here: 1) flag should contain the two internal quotes of t 2) the t contains two spaces. When I use set flag='-f t ' the two spaces are automagically (?) reduced to only one space!! The latter seems to be a general problem: set flag=f wil result in flag containing only f . Any solutions for this problem with quotes and spaces in tcsh script? Or is tcsh not suitable for this kind of things? Thanks, Rob. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

i'm running FreeBSD 4.8 on one of my machines. i'm having a really frustrating problem. i cannot connec to anything outside of the interface. i've quarduple checked that the NIC is assigned an address with the same subnet as my network. i can ping the ip address on the NIC, but i can't ping any other device on the network. i had firewall options in my rc.conf, but they are all commented out (quadruple checked that too). any ideas on how i can resolve this matter? __ Do you Yahoo!?

Installing 4.8 from a PCMCIA NIC
I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.8 on a machine with no CD-ROM, and only a PCMCIA NIC (Microsoft (yep) MN-520, Prism 2, works under Linux using the prism2_cs driver). sysinstall prompts for the PCMCIA bus'es memory segment and usable IRQs, and I give it the values that Linux was using on the same hardware. It probes around and loads the main menu, but no network interface is listed by ifconfig on the holographic shell. Do I need to do anything extra to start the card?

Re: CVSUP
No, that was fine. I understand what you are saying. I was actually thinking that myself, I was just wondering if anyone had any easier way. It's not a big deal really, I just change the default install dirs on one port. That means that I change all of 4 lines in a Makefile, I was just wondering. Thanks anyway man. Cheers If you have lots of disk space, you can try using CVSup to mirror the CVS repository and let CVS merge your changes: * Omit the `tag' in your cvsupfile. Just don't put one in. * Change the `prefix' to a place where you have a lot of space, such as /usr/local/portcvs. (Do NOT use /usr!) * Cvsup as normal. * You should find a lot of files in /usr/local/portcvs/ports/* with names ending in ,v. These are the CVS files. * Back up your ports tree (mv /usr/ports /usr/ports.old). * cd /usr cvs -d /usr/local/portcvs checkout ports * If all went well, you have a ports tree. Now, always cvsup this way. To update your main ports tree, do `cd /usr/ports cvs -d /usr/local/portcvs update'. This will try and merge your changes.

Re: Really Crazy SMTP Problem
Eric, Not knowing what all you've got configured exactly, here's a couple of possible guesses to weed out the basics. Can you do a reverse DNS lookup on your mail server? In other words, perform a whois on the IP address and get a legit domain name. Many servers require this in order to keep out obvious spammers. You should also triple check and make sure that you have SMTP open to come back to you from the outside world. SMTP requires open ports coming in as well as going out. Check your TCP Wrappers and whether or not IPFW or IPFilters is in the mix. Later on, Eric Harrison wrote: Hi, I've been trying everything I can think of to locate the source of this problem and I finally gave up and need some help. This is the situation: I have a server running FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE. I installed Postfix on the machine like I have done at least 20 other times on different machines and got everything configured like it should be. I noticed quickly that it wasn't delivering mail to any remote mail servers so I checked my mail queue and discovered that most of the servers were either refusing the connection or not responding. This was a little strange so I spent about a day checking the postfix configuration, assuming I had just messed something up. I finally came to the conclusion that everything was configured properly and then had the bright idea to try to manually connect to the external mail servers to see if I could connect. This is where it gets wierd. $telnet smtp.ADDRESSWITHHELD.com 25 Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.x... telnet: connect to address xxx.xxx.xxx.x: Connection refused telnet: Unable to connect to remote host I thought this to be rather odd, but thought the worst had happened and I had somehow gotten a blacklisted IP (possibly used previously by a Spammer or something). So I tried a server I knew to NOT be running any type of blacklist filtering (one of my other servers that I knew the config on) and had the SAME result. Connection refused. The other machines on the network running mail servers seem to not be having any problems like this, and I talked to my host to see if anything was reported, and he claiimed it was a misconfiguration of my mail server. Knowing this not to be the case, I am stumped. If ANYONE has any information or insight, you would be a lifesaver.

Also, I'm curious why puc is detecting your card as sio4 and sio5 (COM5 and COM6 respectively) Most mainboards only have sio0/COM1 and sio1/COM2. What is using sio2 and sio3? BTW - I would start from a generic kernel configuration if you don't remember what you did. Then, make the necessary changes to the copy of GENERIC, and go from there. Then, rebuild the kernel - it probably isn't necessary, but it will at least return your kernel to something closer to the baseline.

HELP! Undefined symbol __stdoutp in FreeBSD 4.3...
Hi, On a FreeBSD 4.3 server (I inherited when I took over IT duties at a new client), I am getting Undefined symbol __stdoutp error messages when I try to run utilities (e.g. sudo) that I have pkg_add'ed to the server. Also, attempts to build the latest 'sudo' port fail. Initially, the port building failure involved the fact that /usr/local/bin/sed_inplace did not exist. Trying to build that port failed as well... so I pkg_add'ed sed_inplace... But then the sudo port build kept failing. Here is an example of the error I get when I try to run sudo: sudo date /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Undefined symbol __stdoutp referenced from COPY relocation in sudo I tried searching the mailing lists via http://lists.freebsd.org, but was told the lists are unavailable at this time... I have tried 'google' searches etc. The best I can figure is that something changed somewhere along the way in FreeBSD 4.X causing port builds to fail. I am also guessing that it _may_ have something to do with the 'compat' libraries, but this is just a guess. I see the following C lib related compat libraries in /usr/lib/compat: /usr/lib/compat/libc.so.3 /usr/lib/compat/libc_r.so.3 /usr/lib/compat/libc_r.so.4 Note: I do _not_ have a /usr/lib/compat/libc.so.4 should I? I can generally figure things out on my own... but this has kind of got me turning in circles... Maybe if someone can just point me in the correct direction... or send me a pointer to a FAQ or HowTo article, or a simple list of instructions. After doing some more searching... I'm getting the feeling that I need to re-build my libraries, which would mean installing the source, wouldn't it? If this is correct, I need some instructions or pointers to instructions in the handbook. Update: I have done a 'make' in /usr/src/lib/libc and copied the newly created libc.so.4 to /usr/lib/libc.so.4 and changed the permissions to 444... but I still get the same Undefined symbol __stdoutp error... This smells like there has to be a _simple_ fix for this...
