Or at least understand what you are doing.
What is wrong with bash as shell for root?
(Assuming bash is in /bin and statically linked.)
There's nothing wrong with that if you make it statically linked and put
it in /bin.
I am running a fairly simple dhclient on my OBSD 4.4 box and it runs
as a firewall.
bge0 = lan
bge1 = wan dhcp to ISP
What I have discovered is that all works well UNTIL the ISP modem is rebooted.
At that point, dhclient seems to sleep and then VANISH.
For example...I am running fine and then

I think that is best left as an exercise for the asker.

I have an i386 box that used to be running 4.3-stable and was recently
upgraded to 4.4 using a CD and following the instructions. Everything
seemed to be working fine including rum wireless in its primary
location. However, a previously working configuration in an alternate

2) in an earlier message you indicated that there was some kind of
RAID on this system, I think it is safe to say that it is a BIOS-assisted
software RAID, which COULD be causing you problems if it is still
configured in the BIOS. And even if it isn't causing this problem,
it WILL bite you

I read that softraid now supports RAID0 and RAID1 only.
I'm thinking of adding two more disks to the i386 pc I wrote about in this
thread.
Would a RAID 1+0 or 0+1 supported in this case?
I can think of a procedure like this:
- fdisk and disklabel all 4 disks with a single RAID partition
- create
Another bioctl related question, right out of curiosity.
What happens when one or more disks in a RAID fail?
I mean, I suppose some kind of error messages will be logged and/or sent to
console.
I also imagine bioctl softraid? will show useful messages.
Can anyone point me to some documentation

This will work although I have not written all the magic to make it
pretty. I will at some point make this into an actual raid type so that
it is a single create statement instead of several. I do not recommend
using it this way.

I'm trying to export an mfs filesystem, but it seems not to work.
fstab reads
/dev/wd0b /tmp mfs rw,nosuid,-s=524288 0 0
exports reads

The client can mount but any I/O results in
# mkdir /tmp/shared
# mount -t nfs
Just because you have a cheap 500G disk doesn't mean you
need to allocate all or most of it. For one, the bigger the disk,
the longer it takes to fsck after you trip over the power cord.
Wait for fsck? So OpenBSD doesn't have background fsck? :-(
