MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG As per Doug's suggestion yesterday regarding my "dmesg: magic number unknown" problem, I tried recompiling userland. My "make world" seemed to run okay until the point where it tried to make a sendmail.cf -- I got this error: ===> usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf rm -f freebsd.cf (cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf && m4 ../m4/cf.m4 freebsd.mc) > freebsd.cf m4: eval: major botch and then it dies. I tried doing this by hand, i.e. changing directories to /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf and typing "m4 ../m4/cf.m4 freebsd.mc > freebsd.cf, but I get the same error message. Any ideas? I already cvsupped the source tree before I did "make world". - Julian ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Julian Dunn, System Administrator AEC InfoCenter Inc.
