2011-10-21 Thread Paul Macdonald
Hi, Is there a way to tell which ports might require dialog input during update, i have some auto update scripts which when prompted will run through updates, but occassionally i forget which will require user input and this leads to dialog running ( often @ 100%) until i notice. Obviously

csup: How do I know I have correct version?

strange behavior of restore(8)

Colleagues, I am trying to restore a UFS2 zero level dump sized about 51G. restore has created 6105 directories and no files at all, and now is waiting forever in the runnable state. What could the problem be? I have always used dump/restore with success. Does the number 6105 look somewhat
