php5-interbase dependancy on firebird2-client
Hi people,
I have installed (by luck) firebird-{server|client} on FreeBSD
6.2-STABLE.
Now I want to install php5-interbase, but it seems dependent on
firebird2-client, but I have installed firebird1-client!
How can I make it depend on firebird-client instead of firebird2-client?
My webdev insists on using firebird 1.5.x instead of firebird2.
Besides, installing firebird2-* is such a pain in the you know where :-)
I am using the ports tree to do all this.

Wierd Network problem
I have a dell poweredge 6650 installed with freebsd 6.1 and on the local router, everything works great (ie, a computer on a different subnet off the same router can access it fine) but coming from outside of the network access is incredibly slow. My first thought was that it must be a routing issue, but I have two other freebsd 6.1 servers on that same subnet and I can access them fine from outside. I dug a little further and compared the servers that are working with those that are not and these are the differences that I have found. On the servers that are working (dell poweredge 2450's) the interface is an fxp0 and here is the output of ifconfig: fxp0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 options=8VLAN_MTU inet6 fe80::2b0:d0ff:fee1:f66a%fxp0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 64.25.218.2 netmask 0xff80 broadcast 64.25.218.127 ether 00:b0:d0:e1:f6:6a media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active on the server that is not working: bge0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 options=1bRXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING inet6 fe80::211:43ff:fedc:9aa2%bge0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 64.25.218.10 netmask 0xff80 broadcast 64.25.218.127 ether 00:11:43:dc:9a:a2 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active The first thing that i noticed is that on the option line there is quite a bit of difference between the two. So using the command line ifconfig tool I removed RXCSUM, TXCSUM from the bge0 interface. Voila! Speed increased and the server was actually accessible from off net. Unfortunately, as soon as I tried to access any other port, the interface crashes. Eventually the watchdog picks up on that and restarts the interface. But the problem is completely repeatable. The server that I am having problems with is running cpanel 10.9; the two that are working are running the dns-only version of cpanel. I am not picking up any errors in the logs. This could be related to cpanel, or not, I'm not really sure, although it shouldn't be. The other unique thing about the setup, that very well may be affecting is that the router in question has two subnets configured on the internal port. There is a nat'd subnet for our local users and there is the public subnet that these servers sit on. The final resting place for all three is in a datacenter that isn't built yet, so rather than reconfigure everything once that was done I simply routed the final subnet to our office and set it up their. The router is a mikrotik RB112 board which only has one ethernet port so I couldn't dedicate a port for the new subnet. As I said, my first thought was that the problem was in the router, but the other two servers are running fine. Any suggestions?

Forgive me for asking but where do I take jail file to compare it to the existing one? That depends on where it came from. I don't have such a file, and no port with a pkg-plist installs such a file, so I can't tell where it came from. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Mail Sending delay to HOTMAIL and Yahoo on FreeBSD 6.2
DeadMan: This is an issue with Yahoo and Hotmail, on how they process e-mails coming into their system. I too, am running a FreeBSD 6.2 machine, running QMAIL as my MTA - the same issue exists.

Why is portupgrade not logging?
I am running the command like this:
DATE_YEAR=`date +%Y`
DATE_MONTH=`date +%m`
DATE_DAY=`date +%d`
LOG_BASE=$HOME/var/log/portupgrade
LOG=${LOG_BASE}/${DATE_YEAR}/${DATE_MONTH}/${DATE_DAY}_%s:%s.log
portupgrade \
-aRrv \
--batch \
-L ${LOG}
No files are ever created in ~/var/log/portupgrade/2007/05.
Am I misunderstanding something about the -L switch?

Auto shutdown/restart software for FreeBSD?
Hello again; Is there software for ups auto shutdown and restart for use with a ups system that has the capacity; I.E. a serial connection and references in the manual to software (for Windows mostly) download? Currently I have a Vesta Pro 600 unit. I had one made by Minuteman that crapped out on me last night. It had been doing ok and was a replacement for one made by Tripp Lite, which also failed permanently. I am running one desk top FreeBSD system, headless but with high speed SCSI drives in addition to the boot drive. I am away during the week for at least 8 - 9 hours during the week and cant be there if the power goes down to shut the system down before the ups exhausts its battery. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Re: How to recompile the VIM port for GUI
On 5/11/07, RW [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Don't do that. I'm wondering if this is due to the prefix change. Look at the output of: pkg_info -px ^gtk- If you don't see CWD to /usr/local for your GTK ports, you'll need the rebuild some stuff: pkgdb -Ff portupgrade -rf pkg-config\* What is the pkg-config* package anyway? When you said here that I'd have to rebuild some stuff, I didn't think you meant every single port in the system. I finally got the pkgdb -Ff to work, but I had to remove a couple of packages that kept kicking it out because two packages placed files in the same place. I don't recall the packages now, but it the pkgdb did finally work. Then I did the portupgrade -rf pkg-config\*. That was last night (Friday) @ ~10. It's probably taken longer than it should have because I went to bed at 12 and got up through the night to answer the prompts. However, here it is 8:34 on Saturday night (MST) and it's still building KDE. I think that there was some things that hadn't upgraded before even though I thought that they had. I have a very serious question now. How am I supposed to know to check that stuff you said to with pkg_info -px ^gtk- and look for CWD /usr/local instead of what I had for everything CWD /usr/X11? How did you know that? Would that all have been in that /usr/ports/UPDATING? Thanks for the help.
