BSD error messages

[Odins_Son]

I have recently put Freebsd 4.8 on an old p133 box.

I am getting these two error messages

"dhclient: sent packet : address family not supported by protocal"

I do recieve an ip address and everything works fine, why would I be recieveing this message?

-----------------------------------------------------

and when I use the comand locate I also get

"locate: datebase too small /var/db/locate.databse"

I'm guessing this is because I made /var partition too small.

I'm not sure about the other one, but the database too small error is because you haven't created your locate database.

as root, try running /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb . Once that finishes, you should be able to use locate just fine.

The locate works now.. thanks.

is the dhcpclient possibly enabled for ipv6 or not, and your isp is using or not
