I'm trying to start cvsupd on a box. # su -m cvsup -c "/usr/local/sbin/cvsupd -e -C 8 -l daemon -s /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup.client" Cannot create "daemon": Permission denied It will start with this command: # su -m cvsup -c "/usr/local/sbin/cvsupd -e -s /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup.client" 1999.11.18 19:44:03 NZDT [26301]: CVSup server started 1999.11.18 19:44:03 NZDT [26301]: Software version: REL_16_0 1999.11.18 19:44:03 NZDT [26301]: Protocol version: 16.0 1999.11.18 19:44:04 NZDT [26301]: Ready to service requests But it's not a daemon. The following also works. /usr/local/sbin/cvsupd -e -C 8 -l daemon -s /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup.client I don't understand and can't get past this. Any clues? The box is running 3.2-release -- Dan Langille - DVL Software Limited The FreeBSD Diary - http://www.freebsddiary.org/freebsd/ NZ FreeBSD User Group - http://www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org/ The Racing System - http://www.racingsystem.com/racingsystem.htm unix @ home - http://www.unixathome.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
