2011-11-17 Thread Robin Elfrink
Hi, I've had a bit of success building open-vm-tools on kfreebsd/amd64. I have no idea if all is fine, but a package has been built, vmtoolsd is running, and vcenter shows the vm's hostname. I have a 4000+ lines patch, 160kB. Most of it came from running autoconf. I had to skip services/plugins

IPv6 configuration

2009-09-02 Thread Robin Elfrink
Hi, I found some problems with IPv6. First is /sbin/ifup, which needs to add family type inet6 to ifconfig, and second is /sbin/route which doesn't set family type properly and knows only about ipv6 addresses. I have attached a patch for both. Shall I submit bugs for these? Robin diff -ur

postfix patch

Hi, I'm working on getting postfix built natively on GNU/kFreeBSD (and GNU/Hurd). I took the patch I made a long time ago. The GNU/Hurd patch, which is already in the Debian postfix package, is almost similar (should be, because it's mostly cut&paste). The one thing Wietse Venema is worr

amavisd-new start/stop

2006-03-09 Thread Robin Elfrink
Hi, The command '/etc/init.d/amavis stop' does not stop amavis. It has been like this forever (well, ever since amavis worked on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD). I found out that start-stop-daemon looks for the process with name 'amavisd-new'. On Debian GNU/Linux that is indeed the process name, but on kfr
