I just can't get what I'm doing wrong. In the past, I've always booted from the new release floppy and used sysinstall to perform my upgrades. Since then, I've learned about cvsup. Each cvsup I've done on multiple freebsd servers are failing. First of all, I was using Freebsd 4.0 and used CVSUP to upgrade my sources and ports in an attempt to upgrade to 4.3 release and patch the telnetd exploit. I've pretty much followed step by step from the handbook at FreeBSD.org After getting the cvsups I ran from /usr/src in this order make -j4 buildworld (failed) (random on different servers, one is release 4.2 I was trying to upgrade to 4.3 release which I ended up deleting my src tree, my objs directory, then running make clean, make buildworld, make install world (successfully), then my kernel compile failed) :( Is there a surefire step by step way of doing this, including support on configuring the kernel (besides the obvious format/reinstall)? cc -O -pipe -I/usr/obj/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/libperl -I/usr/src/gnu/usr. bin/ perl/libperl/../../../../contrib/perl5 -c /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/libperl/../. ./../../contrib/perl5/util.c -o util.o /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/libperl/../../../../contrib/perl5/util.c: In function `vsprintf': /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/libperl/../../../../contrib/perl5/util.c:1634: structu re has no member named `_ptr' second attempt did make clean make buildworld Standard-supfile contains: *default host=cvsup12.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4 *default delete use-rel-suffix src-all ports-supfile contains: *default host=cvsup12.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix ports-all Bob Herrold Senior Network Engineer Metropark Communications 10405 A Baur Blvd St Louis MO 63132 (314)439-1900 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
