Not quite a newbie, but not very good either, apparently. :( I did a cvsup last night, following instructions from the handbook, and hosed up my box. ================================= [ecarmody@oberon /home/ecarmody] $ uname -a FreeBSD oberon.hudsonvalleynetworks.com 5.2.1-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p7 #0: Thu May 27 19:57:55 EDT 2004 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 [ecarmody@oberon /home/ecarmody] $ ================================= I should not be running 5.2.1-RELEASE due to my inexperience, I know, but need to in order to support my IDE controller. I was using the box for www, sendmail, tacacs, ntp, syslog, samba, for my home network, and just trying to learn UNIX a la FreeBSD. My immediate issues are these: At boot, ntpd hangs, holding up the rest of the startup process. If I kill it with a ctrl-c, sendmail then does some funky things, and also hangs. =================== /var/log/ntp shows: [root@oberon /var/log] # cat ntp.log 28 May 23:53:37 ntpd[609]: ntpd exiting on signal 15 28 May 23:56:37 ntpd[409]: ntpd exiting on signal 2 [root@oberon /var/log] # which I think is from me killing it via ctrl-c =================== So, to workaround temporarily, I commented out ntpd_enable="YES" in rc.conf. Ntpd obviously doesn't hold up my boot anymore but sendmail does. =================== Starting sendmail. safefile(etc/mail/services.switch, uid=0, gid=0, flags=6480, mode=400): safedirpath(/etc/mail, uid=0, gid=0 flags =6580, level=0, offset=0): [dir /etc/mail] OK No such file or directory Then I get similar lines for /etc/mail/submit.cf, etc/mail/relay-domains, The last line is: Recipient names must be specified I can't seem to find the output I'm seeing in /var/log/messages or /var/log/maillog, so I've hand-typed in the bit above. /var/log/maillog has lots of: May 29 00:00:05 oberon sm-msp-queue[436]: i4S2ug7P087593: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=1+01:03:23, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=4980184, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] which also started after my cvsup last night. =================== Not sure what else to provide. Any direction on how to 'shoot and fix this wins a free beer next time you're in NYC. Thanks... Edward Carmody, CCNP Systems Engineer ShoreGroup, Inc.
