Happily, the problem is fixed - the machine's hostname was not set correctly. *boo* After fixing it the database and backup server built properly, and I contacted the db with isql and have a prompt :-) To put it in a nutshell: I installed FreeBSD 3.4, recompiled the kernel with the shared mem options mentioned below (are not in the default kernel), got Sybase 11.9.2 (RedHat rpms), installed those with rpm --hiv --nodeps --ignoreos <packagename>, made sure ownership and group were correct (sybase sybase), started srvbuild, voila. Very nice - now the Sybase guy has to play with it. put stuff in the db, and I will run some benchmarks on it.
