Free BSD 8.1

2010-09-26 Thread victor kovacs


It appears that all the distfile locations are empty.

For example: KDE4

Master site: empty

Distfiles: none

Extract-only: empty


Have the distfiles for the GUI been left out of the dvd?

Same situation when 32 or 64 side of dvd is loaded.

The dvd disk reader is read only. It cannot write to disk.

Please advise

Victor

That's deliberate.  x11/kde4 is a metaport -- that is, it installs
nothing itself, but exists only to hold dependencies on other KDE4
components.  Installing x11/kde4 will trigger a cascading installation
of the 20-odd other ports (as modified by your choice of options) that
go to create a whole KDE system.

No -- the tarball of the ports in the distribution media is a faithful
copy of the state of the ports tree at the time the media were created.

Distfiles aren't included in FreeBSD DVD images -- there's only about
4.5GB to play with, and most of that is taken up by FreeBSD itself, and
a selection of the most important software pre-compiled in pkg format.

All of the distfiles or all of the pkgs for all of the ports together
are substantially larger than any single piece of distribution medium
(disk, USB key, etc.) readily available at the moment.  Even just
selecting the most commonly installed applications easily overflows the
capacity of the DVD (and consider what invidious choices that selection
process involves).

Be aware that installing the ports tree from the DVD images is not the
ideal way to do it.  If you have the connectivity on your newly
installed system, it is better to use either csup(1) or portsnap(1) to
grab an up-to-date copy of the ports directly from the net.

Cheers,

Matthew

The devel version should be newer.

It might have more features but it's likely to be less stable.

It's safe to install but it might coredump but shouldn't crash your
machine (although it might cause X to crash).

 Here's an example for the output for a data CD:
 
   % file -  /dev/acd0

 170  62:41.00 -  281925   -  -
 
 Do you get the same results for the respective CD content types?

I made some file permission changes, rebooted and made sure that the
changes were static, and then ran a few test.

The cdcontrol program will not play a CDROM although it claims it is. I
can play an audio CD from within KDE; however, it is like pulling teeth
to accomplish it. Way too much trouble. MPlayer cannot access the audio
CD naively.

DATA CDs are another story. I cannot mount them.

Using a data CD:

# file -  /dev/acd0
/dev/stdin: ERROR: cannot read `(null)' (Input/output error)

# file -  /dev/cd0
/dev/stdin: ERROR: cannot read `(null)' (Invalid argument)

# cdcontrol info
cdcontrol: getting toc header: Invalid argument
cdcontrol: Invalid argument

With an audio CD:

# file -  /dev/acd0
/dev/stdin: ERROR: cannot read `(null)' (Invalid argument)

# file -  /dev/cd0
/dev/stdin: ERROR: cannot read `(null)' (Device not configured)

# cdcontrol info

1   0:02.00   6:32.00   0   29400  audio
2   6:34.00   3:55.12   29400   17637  audio
3  10:29.12   3:42.23   47037   16673  audio
  170  14:11.35 -   63710   -  -

Finally, just trying a mount command from the command line:

$ sudo mount -o ro -t cd9660 /dev/acd0 /mnt
mount_cd9660: /dev/acd0: Invalid argument

$ sudo mount -o ro -t cd9660 /dev/cd0 /mnt
mount_cd9660: /dev/cd0: Device not configured

This is getting to be far more trouble and wasting way too much time
than it is worth. I can just put the CDs in one of my Windows machines
and then transfer the data over the network to the FreeBSD units. What
is strange is that this use to work before I upgraded.

By the way, Polytropon, please do not CC me. I am on the list and I
really do not need two copies of every post. Others may appreciate it;
however, I don't.

pf

2010-09-26 Thread Samuel Martín Moro
Hello,


I'm trying to set up pf on my soon-to-be new gateway (8.1-RELEASE amd64).
I used the sample configuration file available on
calomelhttps://calomel.org/pf_config.html
After a few tests, it appears that the gate has fully access to the
internet, but I can't open connections from clients to distant servers (web,
ssh, ...).
Checking pflog log file, I can't see anything about those timeouts, even if
I added the log directive in every block/pass command.
Everything else seems to work, I can talk with my DNS from the internet, ssh
redirections to another pc also seems to works.
I just can't access the Internet from a client of my network...

For debugging, I commented out the options and the 'block all in/out'
directives.

Here's my config file http://pastebin.com/Nim2zBCx

Is there someone understanding what I'm doing wrong?



Thanks for your help!

No.  I made no comment on the relative advantages and disadvantages of
various updating strategies.  Please do not put words into my mouth.
Given that the OP asked about the ports I think it fairly safe to assume
that his intention was to use them.

And, yes, being up-to-date with the ports tree generally *does* give you
better results than not.  Ports are a moving target, dependent entirely
on upstream changes.  Expecting that a snapshot taken months or weeks
ago will work just as well as one updated in the last hour is plain
daft.  Even without any functional changes to the ported software,
projects still move to different hosting, URLs change as archive sites
are internally reorganised, ftp servers come and go, dist files get
re-rolled with new checksums.

Aside from those neutral changes, ported software generally does improve
over time.  Updates that fix problems are way more common that updates
that introduce them.  Despite a few high-profile occasions when things
have gone horribly wrong -- not just with the ports, but with any OSS
project --- this is overwhelmingly the case.  The quality control in the
majority of large OSS projects is very good nowadays -- probably better
than their closed source equivalents.  End users can quite reasonably
expect not to have to spend their time fighting bugs.
Newer generally /is/ better.

Besides that, the assumption you are making, that change is undesirable,
is just plain wrong.  People will always want new stuff.  It may not be
wise for them to get it, but that's another story.

Cheers,

Matthew

The firewall ruleset is a trifle overly complex for a quick glance; study 
and analysis would take some doing. However, if you can reach the internet 
from the firewall box and other client computers behind your NAT can't 
(which is what it sounds like you're describing) it may be just that you are 
missing gateway_enable=YES in your /etc/rc.conf. 

Turning this ON makes your firewall box into a router. The status of this 
can be checked with: sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding  - a 0 means no gateway 
and a 1 means gateway.

 I think the problem is the amd64 architecture. When I buildkernel
 using TARGET_ARCH=i386 it takes only one minute or even less, it's
 only native target (amd64) which is long.

i'll try to cross build a kernel for i386 (i686) and see if that shortens the
build time on my pc, too.

you might want to consider aksing this question again on freebsd-current@ or
freebsd-am...@. not too many developers read freebsd-questi...@.

  After a few tests, it appears that the gate has fully access to the

  (web, ssh, ...).
  Checking pflog log file, I can't see anything about those timeouts, even
  if I added the log directive in every block/pass command.
  Everything else seems to work, I can talk with my DNS from the internet,
  ssh redirections to another pc also seems to works.
  I just can't access the Internet from a client of my network...
 
  For debugging, I commented out the options and the 'block all in/out'
  directives.
 
  Here's my config file http://pastebin.com/Nim2zBCx
 
  Is there someone understanding what I'm doing wrong?
 
 The firewall ruleset is a trifle overly complex for a quick glance; study
 and analysis would take some doing. However, if you can reach the internet
 from the firewall box and other client computers behind your NAT can't
 (which is what it sounds like you're describing) it may be just that you
 are
 missing gateway_enable=YES in your /etc/rc.conf.

 Turning this ON makes your firewall box into a router. The status of this
 can be checked with: sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding  - a 0 means no
 gateway
 and a 1 means gateway.

the gateway is already enabled (and forwarding is correctly set)

I think the missing thing on my old conf was the 'scrub' (at least)
I made a more simple configuration, as following:

ext_if=bge0
int_if=bge1
localnet = $int_if:network
emma=10.242.42.200
alpha=10.42.42.42

pass in log on $int_if inet proto tcp from any to any
pass in log on $int_if inet proto udp from any to any

it's basically working

I'd lay dollars to donuts that some service you are running (SASL, AV, etc) is 
not running and it's hanging there. Have you looked at the logs? Or done a 
verbose mailing to yourself? Your MTA should have a stuck queue list and 
reasons why for you.

port upgrading

2010-09-26 Thread Dick Hoogendijk
 I'm in doubt. I wanted to bring my ports collection uptodate, so I ran 
csup -L 2 /root/ports-supfile and that updated my ports collection. At 
least, I hope so.


Then I started googling and found that cvsup is not recommended. Better 
tot use portsnap (???)

And also portupgrade was a no go. I should be using portmaster.

Woh, I'm confused now.
Question: what is best used to have an up2date ports collection nowadays?
This system is FreeBSD8/amd64.

sudo anomaly

2010-09-26 Thread Steven Friedrich
I have a userID, admin, that I add to my systems to use when I perform system 
admin functions.  I also use this ID when using X-windows, never starting X as 
root user.

So I needed to check my mail for daily run outputs and so I tried to use su 
then mail, but I got admin's mail. So I exited su, and tried sudo mail. I got 
root's mailbox nd I deleted all but two emails. When I q(uit) mail, it said it 
saved 2 messages in mbox. But when I try to go back in it says I don't have 
any mail. There is no root directory in /var/mail.

Did sudo lose my mbox?

Can anyone verify this anomaly?

I still have X11R6 in usr symlinked to /usr/local. This was done per
entry 20070519 in /usr/ports/UPDATING.

Do we still need this symlink?
   
   Yes, anything that references /usr/X11R6 gets directed to /usr/local.
  
  Well I temporarily removed it and this anomaly disappeared. Perhaps we
  just have to suffer until we know the symlink can be removed. I thought
  it was going to eventually be removed...
  
   Did you check /etc/manpath.config and the timestamp
   on /usr/local/man/whatis?
  
  grep -v '^#' manpath.config
  MANDATORY_MANPATH   /usr/share/man
  MANDATORY_MANPATH   /usr/share/openssl/man

  OPTIONAL_MANPATH/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.2/man
  OPTIONAL_MANPATH/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.2/perl/man
  
   Another check is that the output of manpath(1) doesn't
   include /usr/X11R6/man.
  
  manpath
  /usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/kde4/man:/usr/share/openssl/man:
  /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.2/man:/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.2/perl/man
 
 Ok. There's also:
 
 %man -a -w mysql
 
 to see the origins of the multiple man pages, although it seems that you
 may have already confirmed the /usr/X11R6 path connection.
 
 From what you've presented so far I'd say it's looking like a problem
 
man -a -w mysql  
/usr/local/man/man1/mysql.1.gz
/usr/X11R6/man/man1/mysql.1.gz

 with updating of the whatis db files. So to verify whether the weekly
 periodic makewhatis is being run:-
  - check the timestamp on /usr/local/man/whatis - it shouldn't be more
 than a week old
  - check that the weekly run output report lists Rebuilding whatis
 database: and that it doesn't list any errors, e.g.:
 
 Rebuilding whatis database:
 
 -- End of weekly output --
 
ll /usr/local/man/whatis 
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  369225 Sep 25 04:21 /usr/local/man/whatis
I thn manually ran sudo makewhatis /usr/local/man without error. Anomaly still 
occurs.  I'm not fully versed (yet) on makewhatis, but I think (from reading 
the description for the -a switch) that it is supposed to remove duplicate 
entries.

Problems upgrading p5-IO-Compress

2010-09-26 Thread Ron
I went to upgrade my ports this morning and saw this:

p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015needs updating (port has 2.030) (= 
'archivers/p5-IO-Compress')
p5-IO-Compress-Base-2.015 needs updating (port has 2.030) (= 
'archivers/p5-IO-Compress')
p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.015needs updating (port has 2.030) (= 
'archivers/p5-IO-Compress')
p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1needs updating (port has 2.030) (= 
'archivers/p5-IO-Compress')

After reading CHANGES and UPDATING I did a portupgrade p5-* since there were no 
specific instructions and I get this:

===  Checking if archivers/p5-IO-Compress already installed
===   An older version of archivers/p5-IO-Compress is already installed 
(p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015)
  You may wish to ``make deinstall'' and install this port again
  by ``make reinstall'' to upgrade it properly.
  If you really wish to overwrite the old port of archivers/p5-IO-Compress
  without deleting it first, set the variable FORCE_PKG_REGISTER
  in your environment or the make install command line.
*** Error code 1

If I try and run pkg_delete p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1 it won't let me because 
the package is in use. 

How do I upgrade?  Did I miss some obvious instructions?  All UPDATING says is:

20100921:
  AFFECTS: users of p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-*
  AUTHOR: m...@freebsd.org

  The p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-Base, p5-IO-Compress-Zlib and
  p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2 ports have been replaced by p5-IO-Compress.
  Users of Perl 5.10 and higher do not need to install this module
  because it is already included in the standard perl distribution.

I tried following the instructions above about running make deinstall and now I 
get:

[Updating the pkgdb format:bdb_btree in /var/db/pkg ... - 238 packages found 
(-1 +0) (...) done]
Stale dependency: p5-Archive-Tar-1.68 -- p5-IO-Zlib-1.10 -- manually run 
'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force.

I've tried running pkgdb -F, but it is just asking my a lot of questions like:

Duplicated origin: archivers/p5-IO-Compress - p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015 
p5-IO-Compress-Base-2.015 p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.015 p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1
Unregister any of them? [no]

and I have no idea what the right answer is.

I am running perl 5.8.9 and Freebsd 7.1

Any help is appreciated since I am completely lost.  I've been freebsd for many 
years on my personal server but never encountered a mess like this before.

 Question: what is best used to have an up2date ports collection nowadays?
 This system is FreeBSD8/amd64.

IMO if you don't mind compiling your own ports, use portsnap and
portmaster. The sequence is like this;

1) Run `portsnap fetch update`, but see (a).
2) Read /usr/ports/UPDATING, and see if any additions to the top of the file
   apply to you. If so, take appropriate action.
3) If you have local patches to the ports tree, re-apply them if
   necessary. This is not really recommended but can be handy sometimes.
4) Run `portmaster -a -B -d`

(a) When you run portsnap for the first time, or if you have damaged or
deleted the contents of /var/db/portsnap, use 'portsnap fetch extract'
instead.

For me this is part of the weekly routine. Keep an eye on
http://www.freshports.org/ to see if there are interesting changes for you.

If you are upgrading to another major version of FreeBSD (say 7.x to 8.x),
make a list of all used ports with `portmaster -l ports.list`. Then delete
all ports before updating the system. After the update, re-install the 'root'
and 'leaf' ports from ports.list.

Hope this helps.

rhythmbox issue

2010-09-26 Thread Istvan Galgand
Dear All,

I've just realized that I can't start Rhythmbox from my Gnome desktop. I've 
tried to launch it from menu, from terminal, nothing
happens, no error messages appear at all. When I used Rhythmbox last time, 
lets's say, one or two weeks ago, everything was OK. 
First I was thinking of deleting all the files relating to Rhythmbox 
application found in my home directory but in the end I
considered this action as an unadvised one, so didn't touch anything. 
Would you provide me with an idea how to start to fix the problem, please?

Thanks,
Istvan

 Woh, I'm confused now.
 Question: what is best used to have an up2date ports collection nowadays?
 This system is FreeBSD8/amd64.

csup(1) works fine and there's no good reasons not to use it.

portsnap(1) also works fine, and there aren't any obvious problems that
mean you shouldn't use it either.

There is one somewhat subtle difference, which won't affect most people.
'portsnap extract' will blow away any custom files (Makefile.local,
extra patches etc.) that you've added to the ports tree.  csup(1) leaves
them put.  Obviously, either of the two methods will revert any
modifications you've made to any files already known to be part of the
ports tree.

Once you've updated the tree, then you've got several choices for
updating your installed ports.  portupgrade(1) and portmaster(1) are the
leading candidates there: portupgrade probably still has the edge on
features, although development seems to be stuttering a bit recently.
portmaster wins on simplicity -- it's a shell script with no other
dependencies -- but still packs an awful lot of good stuff into
approximately 3600 lines.  Doug B is actively working on it and very
responsive to bug reports etc.

Really either of those two will serve you well, as will various others I
haven't mentioned.  Try them out, see which is most to your taste.

There isn't any one 'best' solution that everyone is enjoined to use.
That's not the BSD way: Tools, not policy.  There are several
solutions that you can use, and it's up to you to select which one you
prefer.  Sure, people having strong opinions on the subject have posted
their thoughts on various fora, but don't be misled: those are
individual opinions, and not an official position.

Cheers,

Matthew

Since you're running perl-5.8.9 you need to have p5-IO-Compress
installed as a separate port.

Try this:

# portupgrade -o archivers/p5-IO-Compress -f p5-Compress-Zlib-2.015
# portupgrade -o archivers/p5-IO-Compress -f p5-IO-Compress-Base-2.015
# portupgrade -o archivers/p5-IO-Compress -f p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.015
# portupgrade -o archivers/p5-IO-Compress -f p5-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015_1

That should transfer all dependencies on p5-(IO-)?Compress-* onto
p5-IO-Compress, which is the desired result.

Cheers,

Matthew

trying to put up X, am using an Nvidia card an HP Presario

2010-09-26 Thread Henry Olyer
Several people in this group took a lot of time and helped me when I
couldn't get FBSD 7.2 running with X on an HP Presario.

Now, I'm having *somewhat* *similar* problems, doing the install for 8.1.

I've attached my rc,conf, the X log file, and the list of installed
packages.

I've also said:

hald_enable=YES and dbus_enable=YES in the rc.conf file.  Apparently
playing with the boot loader file isn't necessary, now.

Oh, I downloaded (using sys-install,) the nvidia helper system but couldn't
get the NVIDIA screen logo that goes up just before X comes up.

Thanks, all!

It depends on what you want to update.

'portupgrade -R name' updates name plus anything name depends on.

'portupgrade -rR name' updates name plus anything name depends on, plus
anything that depends on name.

In all cases, only ports that have updates available are updated, so if
everything in the dependency chain is already up to date, the command

  Subject: Problems mounting nfs from freebsd to Mac.
 
  I've got an nfs server that's refusing to mount one client - via one
  route - and it's driving me crazy.
 
 First question, are you _SURE_ that it's a server-side problem?  I under-
 stand that things are failing in one situation and not others, but there
 are about -five- possible causations, only one of which is a server-side
 NFS configuration.

No, I'm not sure. The question is more what server tools can I use
figure out what's wrong than how do I fix the server. That the
FreeBSD community is the most helpful one involved might have some
bearing on which question I chose to ask here.

  As far as I know, there are only three reasons for an NFS server to
  refuse a mount request: 1) The exports file is borked somehow, 2) The
  server insists that the client use a privileged port, or 3) The IP
  address the request is coming from is disallowed.
 There _are_ others, depending on how access controls are specified in
 the exports file.

Those are pretty much what I meant by the exports file is borked
somehow. The file systems are all zfs, all exported by zfs, and
mostly all inherited from the parent file system. For the record,
that's:

/export -maproot 0 -network 192.xx.yy.0/25 


  #1 isn't it - the file systems mount fine on other boxes. And they
  mount fine on the problem box via Wifi.
 
  #2 shouldn't be it - I'm running the server with -n turned on, and the
  mount works via wifi.
 
  #3 seems logical, but I only have one network enabled, and it's a
  *.0/25. The working addresses include .96, and .106, while the failing
  address is .105. So I'm not sure what's going on here.
 
  Running mountd with a -d flag generates no output at all when the
  request is denied. This makes me think I'm not looking in the right
  place.
 
 First thing, what does 'showmount -a', run on the misbehaving client show? 
 And are there differences, depending on being on the wired vs wireless link?

Just All mounts on localhost: and then an empty list, whether they
are mounted or not.

 Check how the client resolves the server hostname on both the wireless and
 wired links.

It's the same. That's expected - the WRT610N is providing both dns 
dhcp services, and they both resolve through it.

 make sure the _server_ name (in the form used in the nfs mount) is
 resolving in the same way -- to the same address -- when the client is
 on thee wireless and wired links.  (an 'unqualified' hostname, and a
 lack of a default domain in the wired setup  _could_ cause what you
 are seeing.

Yup, both connections resolve to the same address. Yes, I use an
unqualified hostname, but the dhcp server provides a default domain.

 Check to make sure you've got network connectivity both ways on both the
 wired and wireless links.  Does traceroute work in both directions on
 both links?  does it show the _same_names_?

Yes, and yes. 

 You've say you've got a WRT610N in the middle of things.  Is it actually
 playing _router_ on all ports, or switch/hub on the lan side with routing
 on the external interface.  

The latter, and it's bridging the wireless network into the LAN side
as well.

 If it's actually -routing- on all ports, check _both_ the client and server
 routing tables to make sure they're pointing in the right plac, when the
 client is connected on both paths.  Also double-check the router itself
 for any access-control and/or filtering rules.

Those all look right to me. In particular, the client routing tables
are identical (module different interface names  ip addresses) when
it's on the wireless and wired connection.

 If nothing has shown up so far, an obvious next step is to look at the data
 'on the wire' between the machines.  e.g., tcpdump/etherfind/netshark etc.

I was hoping for something a little bit higher level than that, but I
guess that's what's next.

  Thanks,
  mike

 Hello,


 I'm trying to set up pf on my soon-to-be new gateway (8.1-RELEASE amd64).
 I used the sample configuration file available on
 calomelhttps://calomel.org/pf_config.html
 After a few tests, it appears that the gate has fully access to the
 internet, but I can't open connections from clients to distant servers
 (web, ssh, ...).
 Checking pflog log file, I can't see anything about those timeouts, even
 if I added the log directive in every block/pass command.
 Everything else seems to work, I can talk with my DNS from the internet,
 ssh redirections to another pc also seems to works.
 I just can't access the Internet from a client of my network...

 For debugging, I commented out the options and the 'block all in/out'
 directives.

 Here's my config file http://pastebin.com/Nim2zBCx

 Is there someone understanding what I'm doing wrong?

 The firewall ruleset is a trifle overly complex for a quick glance; study
 and analysis would take some doing. However, if you can reach the internet
 from the firewall box and other client computers behind your NAT can't
 (which is what it sounds like you're describing) it may be just that you
 are
 missing gateway_enable=YES in your /etc/rc.conf.

 Turning this ON makes your firewall box into a router. The status of this
 can be checked with: sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding  - a 0 means no
 gateway
 and a 1 means gateway.

well, i fibbed about napping, but have discovered the following:
from my freebsd server, ethic, i can, as root, get mail out to my shell 
account here at magnesium.net.  
so far, that's about it.

I _did_ a pkgdb -F which seemed to correct much in that database.
i have send mail to the test acct at freebsd.org.  i haven't seen 
anything.
nutshell: it looks as tho i can send mail as root [from ethic].
i will now try my desktop and see what happens.

I have used  that PC. I am pretty sure it has an 'N' protocol wireless

Virtually all new PCs have 'N' protocol cards installed by default
unless it is a very cheap model.

 I just got one and was wondering if anyone was running FreeBSD on it
 and how well does it work out of the box.
 All comments are welcome.
Try PCBSD (http://pcbsd.org), is a Desktop BSD variant based on FreeBSD.
Personally, I've used FreeBSD in a laptop in a few occasions but after
trying out PCBSD, this path requires the least effort to setup a
Desktop. The installation  setting up of hardware is too easy. The
kernel that comes with it, does a good job in recognizing the wireless
chip, sound card, NIC, display  other stuff. Even though it uses the
PBI format to install software on PCBSD, one can still use port to
install additional softwares on it by using the portjail console. Both
PBI  port works together well.

In short, it definitely worth a try! :)

 Woh, I'm confused now.
 Question: what is best used to have an up2date ports collection nowadays?
portsnap fetch extract update for the first time after you've setup
the FreeBSD for the very first time. As the parameters used, it fetch
the ports tree, extract it to /usr/ports and update it.

portsnap fetch update every now and then to update the ports tree.

In addition, portmanager does a good job in managing ports in terms of
install/update of ports. It doesn't required ports index to find out
what is installed or needs to upgrade as it scans the ports tree for
dependency, every time. This is good because I don't have to deal with
the problem of ports index getting corrupted. Because of this, it does
required more time to install/update ports compare to portmaster 
portupgrade.

I've recorded some of my experience in using portmanager :

 Gary, just use smart host to google. That's powerful!
 
 Sincerely,

 Actually, I have started using google to search for all types of
 things, :-)  The above is still a mystery tho.

In first you need to understand about 'smart host'.
Have a look at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_host

Sincerely,

There's nothing in the log snippet above that would explain, nor
indicate why/that your mutt died.

Right.  But this was the second time [[i _think_].  My friend fixed it
by rebuilding a couple of utilities, one was SpamAssassin.  I found that
SA was entirely missing [??!??].  After centuries of fmessing around
downloading out-of-date and otherwise missing source code---this thanks
to using my desktop KDE/Gnome utilities and copying then over
to /usr/ports/distfiles and finally building SpamAssassin  and updating
lots of other stuff, mail worked.  

I didn't believe it at first.  I sent a slew of test messages back -
forth to me on magnesium.net and other places.  When my mail reached
freebsd.-test, i knew things worked.  

It's live and learn; it's try until you want to punch your first thru
the wall [then don't and focus at the problem at hand.]  I am trying to
unite FreeBSD and Ubuntu.  It's time to give away my old Dell and then
to see if I can lose the pfSense firewall.  I figure on several months'
worth of head-banging... .
