I think I have it under control now. I got real lucky in that I still had a logged in SSH session, and I had installed owncloud. SSH wouldn’t accept new connections as I’d overwritten /bin /usr/bin and /dev. But Apache/php/owncloud was working so I could just replicate some tar files of a like VM, and now I can scp/ssh again.
I’ve been able to stop/start mysql & apache so I think I’m ok now. I think.
I’ll have to copy off everything I can before I even think about rebooting.
It’s good to see that ‘major goofs’ happen to everyone! 😉
yeah 🙁
openbsd might shut down if they dont get money! this is bad! openbsd is a well engineered unix and has openssh!
I know.. I’ve been following from a distance. I just broke some teeth so I’m busy making payments on some guy’s yacht… 😐
I was a long time contributor to the OpenBSD project. It is sad to see it slip away, and yet everyone seems to benefit from it’s OpenSSH.
