I was tryiing to CVSup my 2.2.5 to 2.2.8 (RELENG_2_2) yesterday and it did not work due to the fact that my machine has no proper hostname set as I am randomly 'awarded' with a hostname of pppX (X=0..5). cvsup complained that it could not find my IP, perhaps a reverse lookup that failed? Anyway, what should I do? 1) Once connected do a nslookup and find out who I really am, and set my hostname to that string, then cvsup. Should that work? I'm at work right now and can't test it. 2) Use my Disc set and try to use the CVS repository on one of them? How do I go about doing that? Is it as simple as using cvsupd to point to my CD and then specify localhost in stable-supfile? 3) Perhaps something more convenient? Tips/tricks of the trade are welcome... /Micke ---------------------------------- Michael Josefsson, MSEE mj@isy.liu.se This message was sent by XFMail running on FreeBSD 3.1 ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
