Hello, I am having some problems with CVSup, I am following the instructions in "Absolute BSD" - Michael Lucas Chapter 6. I follow the instructions in the book and everything works up untill "make installworld". The steps I took are as follows; - Installed CVSup # cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup # make all install clean - selected supfile # cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile /usr/src -edited the supfile to update to the latest STABLE version, -upgrade all ports and doc's - executed cvsup I was not using X and the supfile said to use the following command and not "cvsp-supfile" # cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile The upgrade of the system source code completed without any errors. - Building the new FreeBSD # cd /usr/src # make buildworld This command completed without any errors - Updating the kernel # make buildkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC no errors - installing the system # make installkernel no errors I then rebooted the system, everything seemed to work fine. Once the system rebooted I logged in as root. The book I am reading that in order to install the rest of the system, I need to drop down to single-user mode. I ran the following; # shutdown now I then went to install the userland programs with the following; # cd /usr/src # make installworld This is where I hit a brick wall. I get the following ouput - required proxy user is missing - error code 1 - see /usr/src/UPDATING I open the said file but am not sure what I am looking for. I went all the way down to 2002 but found no mention of proxy or user. I have tried to do the CVSup again and not run # shutdown now but I still get the same result. What have I done wrong? Have I left anything out? I hope that I have provided you with enough information. Thanks, Brett ======================================= You take the blue pill and the story ends.
