From the ports catalogue i have installed Gnome Lite 3. Uppgraded all the ports with CVsup 4. Then I installed Bacula 5.0.0.1 rel (with MySQL), altso from the ports catalogue. 5. Installed BAT 5.0.0.1 I then tried to start Bat by opening Gnome, starting a teminalvindow and typing bat, but got error message (dont have it now becouse it stoped giving me this message). I also notised that bacula-dir prosess stopped when i tried to start Bat. Then i checked if MySQL was running, but it wasnt even installed (i thought it would be installed together with Bacula, but no) Therefor i installed MySQL-server 5.0.90, started it and tried to run BAT again. The program starts but dosent seem to work. It continues to try to connect to the database i think. In the lover left corner of the BAT Gui i continues to display the folloving: Connecting to Direbtor Localhost:9010 and then says Connection fails Is there something i need to configure in BAT og Bacula to get BAT to connect correctly? You have to configure MySQL for Bacula and the conf-files of Bacula. There are create scripts for MySQL. You should read the very good doc at bacula.org.

carp ghosts
Hi! We have two Frontendserver with carpinterfaces. Now we need more of the carpinterfaces. When i use /etc/netstart to bring them online, there are error messages about misconfigured carpinterfaces. When i look with ifconfig to the list of interfaces, there are four ghost carpinterfaces. I haven't set them in the rc.conf and the errors came frome them. This interfaces are the following from the list of real carpinterfaces.

update/upgrade question
Hello! Maybe i haven't understand the process of updating not really. I thought when i use Releng_6 in the stable_supfile i get the latest version of 6.x = 6.4. But after the process of make buildworld and so on, it is still 6.3. Do i have to use Releng_6_4 even when i do not get the patches then? Next question is if i don't get updates with freebsd-update when i have a stable version? I have the problem with two machines (6.3 and 6.4). On both i do not get the public key because it is not available on the remote server.

That is equivalent to RELENG_6_3 or RELENG_6_4 in your cases. However 6.3-RELEASE is due to go out of support on the 31st January (http://www.freebsd.org/security/security.html) so now would be a good time to think about upgrading. So if i understand that right, it is not possible to follow the engeneering in stable and having all patches without using the way over make buildworld ...? thx Alex ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

This surprises me a bit, as I'd understood that the differences between 1.5 and 1.6 were strictly limited to bugfixes, and changed the interface not at all. Reason that this might make some difference to you is that, at least for me (using FreeBSD-current) the jdk16 port and eclipse, from ports, are absolutely rock stable. Do you really have some reports saying that jdk16 doesn't work in your situation? Yes, for example access over Juniper Netscreen VPN requires flash and java 1.5.

It sounds like you have installed a third party PPD file that references this filter. I've got the ppd from linuxprinting.org, but that wasn't the problem. The solution was to have a perlscript named cupsomatic. I've got it from a friend, put it in the filter directory and everything work fine. This script should be in the ports, or?
