Howdy list,

I recently upgraded a number of my servers of the course of a week. Most =
were=20
upgraded from FreeBSD 4.6 RELEASE to FreeBSD 4.6.1-p10 RELEASE,

but the last server (and most important...) was upgraded from FreeBSD 4.4=
=20
RELEASE to 4.6.2 RELEASE. (The upgrade took so long, I crossed over versi=
on=20
numbers! :)  )

Now I seem to have a serious problem.

My ifconfig command won't register more than a couple domains/IPs.

It doesn't give any strange errors, either. It just doesn't work!

So now I am running a FreeBSD 4.6.2 RELEASE world, with a FreeBSD 4.4 REL=
EASE=20
kernel. (This solves the problem momentarily)

Does anyone have a clue what happened here? (I'm thinking permissions of =
some=20
sort... but I can't figure it out.)

And yes, I ran installworld in single user mode.

Thanks!

Matthias
