I think I can answer this one. Perhaps, not enough disk space? See,
the Where is packages-6.2-release for more context. You know, disk
space isn't infinite...uh-huh.

Why not a DVD version at bittorent and or at the FTP?

I have only ONE question.
Where is packages-6.2-release? I have FreeBSD 6.2, and tuning it.
Where I can download packages for my freebsd version?
Thats a great question, and it appears that the 6.2-release packages
repository has been removed. Looking in ftp.freebsd.org I see 5-stable,
Hello,
I'm trying to understand why I cannot read my CD drive directly from a
'c' program using the read(2) system call, or even using the dd(1)
command. As you will see, I have both the acd0 and cd0 devices since
I have atapicam configured in the kernel.
I can mount cdrom media using mount()
I've got a problem with file names containing : and ? characters when
mounted via mount_smbfs. I have two FBSD machines running SAMBA. Machine-1
mounts a file system from Machine-2 using mount_smbfs(). The ls() command
converts a file name such as XX:YY to something like X~Y. If I run tar()
On FreeBSD 5.4 I'm seeing a strange problem with cd9660 and DVD+RW media.
I use growisofs() to burn the DVD, which works fine. However, when I mount
the DVD, ls() reports the date/time of the files on the DVD five hours
behind the date/time of the original files (as reported by UFS2).
It seems
I'm running FBSD 5.4 and notice that the date/time stamps on files burned
to DVD using growisofs() are being reported incorrectly after mounting the
DVD and using ls() or stat().
On Dec 2, 2005 at about 10:30am, I used growisofs() to burn a DVD (took
less than a minute to finish). When I mount
Is there a switch for mkisofs/growisofs that will preserve
a directory structure when supplying full or partial path names?
i.e.
growisofs -Z /dev/cd0 -R /dir1/dir2/dir3/file1 /dir1/dir2/dir3/file2
The above example results in file1 and file2 at the root of the mount
point when the DVD is
I'm experiencing a strange problem with smbfs and can't find any
references to it on the web. I've mounted a share from a win2k
machine that contains JPEG images to a mount point on my FreeBSD
system using mount_smbfs. The mount point is located within an http
directory tree so the JPEG images
I have two FreeBSD v5.2.1 systems and a Windows XP system. The first FBSD

SAMBA. Both the FBSD .1 server and the Windows box print fine. Text is
Can anyone provide a pointer to a good how-to on creating a customized
bootable disk? Specifically, I'm trying to understand:
1) How do you create a 64mb (for example) memory file system as part
of the boot procedure?
2) How do you instruct init to mount the newly created memory file
I can't determine if you want to simply assign addresses by MAC address
or set up a firewall to packet filter based upon MAC address. dhdpd can
do the former and ipfw can do the latter. The man pages dhcpd and ipfw
have examples on how to accomplish either or both.
Is there a way to allow or

Why shouldn't it be?
Because it's counterintuitive. Unless there's a method to use the multiple
mount points as separate entry points to the file system for specialized
program transactions similar to the Tru64 FFM file system, what's the point
of having it mount itself back over itself on the
Hello,
I would really appreciate some IPFW2 help with a matter I am unable
to resolve. I have a system with 5 nics in it that I want to use
as a router, set up as follows (1.2.3.4 is the public address symbol).

Does FBSD enforce a maximum number of mounted file systems? If so,
is it configurable?

The problem most likely has little to do with your computer or cables.

You don't have to install the entire OS to another machine if you have a

I'm not familiar with the heimdal port. If you've got the list of files
that it touches, you can write a small shell program to check if all those

yes, i can. :) the reason this doesnt work is that a telnet
connection is not between your host [port 23] and server host
[port 23]. it is actually between your host [random port number

Yes, it did, and

a return packet is like this FROM any port 23 TO any
host [certain port range]. notice that this return packet is not going to
be let through by the firewall, and therefore you will not be able to get
the telnet session going.
