Hi. I just did a NetBSD 5.1 Restore on my Qube2 (which I just built a new power supply and power plug for). Restore went great - VERY smooth operation - really nice to be able to just 'do' it with no serial terminal etc. I changed the IP, netmask, default route to match my LAN once I had it hooked up using the panel (I prefer a fixed IP). That went fine, I can now ping the Qube2 from another box. $ ping 192.168.1.103 PING 192.168.1.103 (192.168.1.103): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.1.103: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=0.704 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.103: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=0.472 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.103: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=0.568 ms ^C --- 192.168.1.103 ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 0.472/0.581/0.704/0.095 ms All good. I can't telnet to the box to continue my setup/secure the box though? $ telnet -l root 192.168.1.103 Trying 192.168.1.103... Connected to 192.168.1.103. Escape character is '^]'. telnetd: Authorization failed. Connection closed by foreign host. That's what I get back. I'm guessing I need to telnet as root? I can't remember how to do it. I thought -l root would map 'root' as the user but I might be wrong? This isn't documented anywhere I can find it. The RestoreCD HowTo gives the impression it should 'just work' which it does... but... Oh also, when I serial console the box I get a db> (debugger?) prompt not a login? What gives? That used to work :\ -- Mark Benson My Blog: <http://markbenson.org/blog> Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mdbenson "Never send a human to do a machine's job..."
