Finding rc variables
For naive users (as I am under FreeBSD 5), /etc/rc.d and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/configtuning-rcng.html beg the question: What variables do I need to enable in rc.conf? Is the intention that users will add an _enable variable for each of the 113 scripts in /etc/rc.d they use, or only a subset? The Handbook doesn't list the scripts that are toggled via rc.conf (which is good from a maintenance perspective), but is a there an efficient way to get such a list, or is it really just 'ls /etc/rc.d'? I see mentions of RCng and rc.conf in /usr/ports/UPDATING, but they're not suitable for extracting a complete list. Reading UPDATING, I get the impression all ports will eventually use RCng, but most of the scripts I have installed don't yet -- is the following a suitable test for port scripts? grep '^# KEYWORD:' /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* Thx, Chris Pepper -- Chris Pepper: http://www.reppep.com/~pepper/ Rockefeller University: http://www.rockefeller.edu/ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Unexpected inet6 in FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE
I have two systems, named www guest. Both are tracking FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE, but guest is a bit more current. Neither has IPv6 explicitly enabled, but for some reason, guest insists on configuring an inet6 interface at boot time (ifconfig xl0 shows an additional inet6 address line, not present on www). This is causing me some aggravation, as localhost connections (such as apachectl fullstatus) are from [client ::1] instead of the old-fashioned 127.0.0.1. To my surprise, http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-ipv6.html doesn't talk about rc.conf at all, and I'm not sure where else this would be set up.

ps: proc size mismatch
I last did a buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, installworld in December (from current STABLE sources via cvsup). I tried again a few weeks ago and today, and after booting to single-user get errors from ps about /proc (ps: proc size mismatch). uname from my working kernel world is: FreeBSD www.reppep.com 4.7-STABLE FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #0: Tue Dec 3 14:05:51 EST 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/REPPEP i386 Commands I ran to update (in December successfully, and twice unsuccessfully this month): # more Makefile UPDATING # mergemaster -p ; make buildworld ~/buildworld-20030221.log ; make buildkernel ~/buildkernel-20030221.log # mergemaster found no changes # mergemaster -p # no changes found # make installkernel Searching the web, I see many people saying if ps complains about a mismatch, your world is out of sync with the kernel http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-trouble.html#KERNELCONFIG-NOBOOT.

Reboot. Enter single user mode. Run 'installworld'. If you suspect 'installworld' can fail in the middle of it all, and leave you with a useless installation, half-updated and half-not, then make sure you have about 300 MB of free space in /somewhere and run: # cd /usr/src # make DESTDIR=/somewhere installworld if this works fine, then youcan safely delete everything in /somewhere and run the real 'installworld' without DESTDIR. So (aside from verifying sufficient free space), the only test to do after installkernel and before installworld is to make sure that the system can boot single-user?

Running Linux binaries and using Linux filesystems are two completely different things. To to the former, and the appropriate rc.conf entry and install ports/emulators/linux_base as described in the Handbook. To use ext2fs, you can either add the option EXT2FS to your kernel config to compile it statically into your kernel, or you can load the ext2fs module dynamically, even into GENERIC. To do the latter, the module must exist; it will be created if you make the kernel with -DWANT_EXT2FS_MODULE. It is also installed by sysinstall, IIRC. David, I know they're distinct, but it's silly for a discussion of Linux applications to ignore the possibility of those apps residing on a Linux filesystem. I couldn't find ext2fs documented anywhere, which is the first issue. The second is adding a link comment to the LABI chapter. Thanks for the tip -- I used WANT_EXT2FS_MODULE=TRUE in /etc/make.conf, which will be persistent. I think if I ever need to use it just one time in the future, I'll try cd /usr/src/sys/modules/ext2fs; make install, which looks a bit easier to find now that I know what to look for.
