Hello.
I suddenly cannot run cat command as /bin/cat file appears to be without
execute permissions (all other files in /bin directory are with them) and I
get /bin/cat: Permission denied error.
I had a misfortune to chmod 555 /bin/cat, then my machine panicked (when
trying to run cat) and was not able to boot until I changed the /bin/cat
permissions back to read-only. Anyway the system running again but I cannot
install almost any port that uses cat in ./configure script.
I am running FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p16 on Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
(2992.52-MHz 686-class CPU), with two 200GB SATA disks and RAID1 geom
mirror.
Output of dmesg is attached as file.
Question#1: How can I get rid of this problem and repair my cat file to be
able to install new ports again?
Question#2: Why did this happen? I mean everything worked fine for a year or
more until I decided to use hylafax on my machine and found that it cannot
do documet conversion.
Thank you.
Viktoras
