<0> hrm
<0> /usr/pkg/sbin/download-vulnerability-list has failed in /etc/daily.local for the past 3 days
<1> failed how?
<0> can't say.
<1> so how do you know it failed?
<0> because it exited with nonzero
<0> #!/bin/sh
<0> s=0
<0> if [ -x /usr/pkg/sbin/download-vulnerability-list ]; then
<0> /usr/pkg/sbin/download-vulnerability-list 2>&1 >> /dev/null && s=1
<0> if [ $s -eq 1 ]; then
<0> echo "Downloaded new vulnerability list"
<0> else
<0> echo "Problem downloading vulnerability list"
<0> fi
<0> fi



<1> wow, that's smart code.
<1> s,/dev/null,/tmp/somefile,
<0> heh, no making fun of my script-fu
<1> and then cat /tmp/somefile && rm /tmp/somefile in the problem case
<0> seriously, you don't like the code? :(
<2> /win 4
<2> :(
<1> abe: it seems pretty much ok, but throwing away the error output is not useful - safe it.
<0> yeah, I'll do it for tonight's run
<1> save
<0> it worked just now, so I dunno what's going on
<1> who knows.
<0> thanks.
<1> sure.
<0> is $$ the PID?
<1> yes
<1> pid of the shell
<0> cool - don't want tmpfile badness.
<0> perhaps could have a race condition but it's a single-user box
<0> ok
<0> #!/bin/sh
<0> s=0
<0> rm -f /tmp/dvl.$$
<0> if [ -x /usr/pkg/sbin/download-vulnerability-list ]; then
<0> /usr/pkg/sbin/download-vulnerability-list 2>&1 >> /tmp/dvl.$$ && s=1
<0> if [ $s -eq 1 ]; then
<0> echo "Downloaded new vulnerability list"
<0> else
<0> echo "Problem downloading vulnerability list"
<0> cat /tmp/dvl.$$
<0> fi
<0> fi
<1> rm /tmp/dvl.$$
<0> no -f?
<1> why leave the file behind?
<0> oh. at the end, you mean
<1> next time this is run, the shell has a new PID and it won't nuke the old file but a non-existant one instead
<1> yes
<0> yeah, good point.
<0> got it, but made it -f
<0> just on the off chance it wasn't created
<1> whatever
<3> hello, can anyone help me with this error i get when trying to set an ip.. ifconfig: SIOCAIFADDR: Input/output error
<3> command was, ifconfig iwi0 inet 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0
<1> as root?
<3> yes
<1> no idea.
<0> did you google, o?
<0> check this: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2005/04/07/0007.html
<4> anyone have a psp?
<5> anyone run netbsd on psp?
<6> psp can't run
<4> I bought one today
<4> I'm not entirely sure of the "recommended" way of copying music / videos to it
<6> netbsd can it?
<0> can someone please advise on a nontechnical question?
<6> sure
<0> I don't understand the benefits of RSS aggregators
<7> benefits over what?
<7> over not using rss at all?



<0> yeah
<7> well, I guess people like to be able to have feeds of info all in the one place
<0> how many feeds before it's worthwhile to use an aggregator?
<7> rather than have to visit X number of sites to see what's happening?
<7> that's perhaps the most common usage..
<7> dunno, I don't use rss
<0> there are only 3 sites I visit regularly
<7> but I think that's why people like them
<0> (that have rss feeds)
<7> then yeah, useless for you
<0> ok
<0> thanks.
<8> RSS has to be the working of FOX or CNN
<8> i swear to god
<8> quantify all news into a 15 second blip

<14> backdoors
<12> i don't have time to read this, but don't we shake our finger when China does this?
<11> MadAtWork: hypocrisy is of all times and of all people
<14> Require any manufacturer of "routing" and "addressing" hardware to offer upgrades or other "modifications" that are needed to support Internet wiretapping.
<14> so if I build a bsd gateway/router on a pc does that mean I have to setup a backdoor?
<14> cause that would be quit insane
<15> Yes:)
<11> ElevenBra: and mail root@fbi.gov with the details for access to it :)
<14> TGEN: Ill just post it on my blog
<11> hehe
<6> postings@ic.fbi.gov actually :D
<15> Actually they require a backdoor. No need to email. Install PHP on the router and you'll be compliant
<2> hah
<16> boo
<17> Heyheywwwwwwwww
<18> anyone knows what the difference is between active and p***ive cooling ?
<18> this is with respect to ACPI
<9> active <=> with a fan ?
<9> bbl
<15> p***ive cooling is when you put your heat emitting device (HEAD) in liquid nitrogen to keep cool. Active cooling is when you use a fan (old technology)
<18> :)
