I have just rebuilt my machine to FreeBSD 5-Release Everything was working okay and I could connect via SSH to the machine... Accidently, I delted the /usr/misc/share/termcap file. I grabbed the termcap.small from freebsd.org (only one I could find) and installed it and then ran the cap_mkdb util. The console seems to be ok, but when I telnet in or ssh into the system I get an error. Telnet says cannot read termcap database, using dumb terminal settings and ssh says csh: cannot open etc/termcap Etc/termcap is a symbolic link to /usr/misc/share/termcap. I am sure it is something simple I have missed, but would appreciate help JJ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
