Hi again, I am having a problem getting updates for my 4.0 system, when I run su-2.03# /usr/local/bin/cvsup supfile I get the following: Cannot get IP address of my own host -- is its hostname correct? hummm.... /etc/hosts: # Host Database # This file should contain the addresses and aliases # for local hosts that share this file. # In the presence of the domain name service or NIS, this file may # not be consulted at all; see /etc/host.conf for the resolution order. # # 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.my.domain myname.my.domain ::1 localhost localhost.my.domain myname.my.domain /etc/host.conf # $FreeBSD: src/etc/host.conf,v 1.6 1999/08/27 23:23:41 peter Exp $ # First try the /etc/hosts file hosts # Now try the nameserver next. bind # If you have YP/NIS configured, uncomment the next line # nis both are "out-of-the-box"... --karl __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
