Umm.. Well if the OS is properly documented, why would you need to ask the
question in the first place? It's one thing to read things for yourself
throroughly, and another to just take some answer given to you. I'm sure the
people saying RTFM would tell you to do that unless it wasn't actuall in
TFM...

OpenBSD's documentation is one of, if not, the best documented OS' out
there. Believe me, I've used quite a few.

Thanks for playing!

I think the software if free ( freedom) each proyect has the freedom to do the best effort posibly. Think only in BSD world (Net, Free, Open) three BSD operating system with different goals.

If you want give credit to the Linus words then continue the thread, if no, it can be closed subject.

Mr. Torvalds is free to talk any thing, we are freedom to listen or no listen your bad words.

We may be looking at a project using Servlets, .. I see tomcat in packages,
but are there any 'gotchas' running on a normal production system? There
doesn't seem to be anything current in the archives (since 3.4).

Thanks!

Hello all,

I am a new to OpenBSD but not *nix in general...

I have two systems running OpenBSD 4.2. It has 9 carp interfaces, and
has been running fine for months. All of a sudden, both systems are in
BACKUP state.

I halted one of the systems then on the remaining system rebooted, shut
down and restarted, run "ifconfig carp1 state master", changed the
sysctls, removed the hostname files, rebooted, t...

Hi all,

I'm looking to compile a list (of at least one :-) working minipci wireless card(s) which reliably run at the fastest supported speed under 802.11a or 802.11g on OpenBSD 4.3. The minipci card would be intended to run in a Soekris 5501 box.

I've read the OpenBSD docs and searched and read a lot of documents re: BSD support for such devices, but it seems a lot of people are only having success with speeds up to 11Mbps.

I am looking to get specific makes and models of minipci cards please!

There is no specific mailing list for landisk, direct the traffic to tech@.
If it is determined that there is enough landisk specific mail, a mailing
list would be created at that time.

Hello,

I have a serial console on my Plextor PX-EH40L which seems to be broken
now (no RX available). After quite a few testings of various OSes, the
disk is now blanked. Until I get a new serial console, I'd like to try
OpenBSD 4.4 on that disk. I couldn't find the procedure to manually
install OpenBSD on it. I'm not talking about the disklabel/fdisk/newfs/tar
part :) I can probably manage that one. I'm more concerned about making
the installation bootable.

Is the INSTALLBOOT(8) command enough ...

The BSDanywhere project has now its own bug tracker as well as two
mailing lists. No excuses for spamming the OpenBSD lists any longer ;)
See http://bsdanywhere.org for details.

I can't speak to Stephan's recent changes; he and I spoke via e-mail just
before his "Beta 1" was packaged. I did look at Beta 1, but not newer ISOs,
I'll talk only to known differences with Beta 1.

We have the same purposes: OS familiarization and hardware testing.

1. My LiveCDs/LiveDVDs offer multiple workstation configurations, primarily
for Linux/OtherBSD users interested in gaining some familiarity with OpenBSD.
I also include a basic OS with nothing at all, primarily for use by Op...

Hiya!

maybe I'll get flames for inquiring, but I'll try anyway:

has anyone attempted (maybe with success) building a NetBSD toolchain
on OpenBSD?

I understand that this might seem senseless to some folks, but it's a
good option for my situation. From the research I've done (archives,
google, etc) it doesn't appear that others have tried (or documented
trying), but I find it hard to believe that this hasn't been attempted
before.

I'd like to do this for the same reason you would cross-compil...

The warning never kills the process. That warning is generated by
OpenBSD's modified ld(1). It looks like the error is in a shellscript
(perhaps `nbmake`?). Probably something is getting generated wrong
because OpenBSD doesn't work the way NetBSD's tools expect, but it's
hard to say any more.

Try having a look at qemu.

Yes. You use the -net tap option. It's kind of painful the first time
through, so here's a guide to one way (but not the only way) to do it:
You have to edit /etc/qemu-ifup and change the ETHER variable to be
the interface you want to bridge to,
and you have to run qemu with sudo, or at least sufficiently
privileges for it to create a tun(4)

The default qemu-ifup shows using a trunk(4) interface. You could also
set that up, but I haven't done it so I won't risk trying to tell you
how to do it. R...

Well, i agree with Razzolini.

Because the Linux problem is a "core" problem. It compromisse the whole
system.

Now I understand why there's so many issues in the world. Love you way you
deliberately misinterpret my words. I hope that's not what you do as chief
scientist at work.

But your argument is correct. There's no good reason why git should require
X. Go bitch at the upstream for including Wish. Tell them to separate it
out into two packages. git and git-gui. Let us know what Linus tells you.

2. Nothing in the GPL prevents you from doing any of this. If there
