Congratulations to the FreeBSD team on getting 2.1.5 out the door! All
the hard work in keeping FreeBSD -stable (while still trying to keep it
-current) is greatly appreciated!
[I'm assuming that -stable is the place to post about 2.1.5-RELEASE.
;-) ]
I was running the 2.1-960627-SNAP "beta" version (with its kernel). I
pulled down just the sources for 2.1.5-RELEASE, and did a make world
plus a kernel build+install. The compile went flawlessly. Since
GENERIC didn't change between beta and final, I used my same kernel
config from the beta.
Now that I've rebooted the machine, I can't get out to the network any
more. DNS and NIS both wait long times before failing. The syslog is
producing an NIS-related message at a rate of about 40k lines/10
minutes. The nub of the problem appears to be the output from ping.
ping to localhost (lo0) works fine, but to any network address (ep0) I
get:
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
ping: Wrote [host] 64 chars, ret=-1
The routing table (netstat -r) looks the same as it did before. (I'm
not using routed/gated.) A search in /etc revealed no files of interest
that have changed today (i.e., since/during the compile).
Is this a -RELEASE problem? Any ideas where I could start looking?
Thanks in advance for any help...
