System name: athanatos
Type and version: CVAXSTAR 7.1H (plus partial update)
Display type: SM
What were you trying to do?
mkserv -remote
What's wrong:
Here's what the script returned:
Running /srvd/usr/athena/lib/update/discuss.add
Running /srvd/usr/athena/lib/update/mail.add
Running /srvd/usr/athena/lib/update/nfs.add
Updating /site/server...
SyncTree version 3.1.14
Updating rc.conf
===> Remember to get a discuss srvtab and put it in /usr/spool/discuss.
===> Remember to set up an acl in /usr/spool/discuss.
===> Remember to check sendmail.cf to make sure it does what you expect.
===> Remember to set up /etc/exports.
===> Remember to set up a credentials file in /site/usr/etc.
===> Remember to get a srvtab with rvdsrv.<machine>.
===> Remember to arrange the appropriate Moira entries.
===> Please make sure NFSSRV is set to an approporate number in /etc/rc.conf
Update finished.
The service change requests will take effect upon the next reboot
of the machine.
/site/server has been used for the server specific files
Do not modify these files as they can be replaced at any time.
The contents of /site/bin/athena and /site/etc/athena are no
longer being used and may be removed. In addition, items placed
in /site/usr by pre-6.4 versions of mkserv may also be removed.
What should have happened:
It seems to be accessing all the other mkserv "sub-scripts". I don't
know if it's doing anything other than echoing, but this is not right.
cat /site/server/.services still returns discuss, mail, and nfs, and
not remote, so mkserv -remote seems to have the right effect.
In general, the mkserv script seems to be very sloppy. I think I've
filed a bug report before when I've gotten other extraneous material
echoing.
