    IPv6 connectivity lost after some time

    Sorry to bump an old thread, but I have the same problem and it's not been solved to this date. The only system that fails here is FreeBSD and it's well known by my hoster. I think it has something to do when the router is `fe80::1`. We have this in common. The routing problem disappeared for...

    Benchmarks: FreeBSD 13 vs. NetBSD 9.2 vs. OpenBSD 7 vs. DragonFlyBSD 6 vs. Linux - Phoronix

    The zstd native benchmark seems to have problems with measuring time in some cases. Maybe this is why Phoronix got low results for FreeBSD? See https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/12c045f74d922dc934c168f6e1581d72df983388/programs/timefn.c#L138

    USB CDC Virtual COM Port Device

    You haven't said how you use the device /dev/cuaU0. What executable is it?

    Closed Why, as a programmer and desktop user, I seem I cannot give up Linux for FreeBSD

    You should accept that every system is different and has disadvantages and advantages. Since you focus on Linux features that don't exist on FreeBSD, you need Linux. I personally don't care about the features you have mentioned (at the moment) and I am happy with what I have. From my point of...

    ARP table entries on wrong/duplicate interface

    I've had this problem, too, (yesterday!). arp -a gave me a physical interface that is a member of a bridge for my gateway. I've been confused how this happened, because the physical interface does not even have an IP, like yours. What I found out is that after changing my 3 NICs to be members...

    Solved IPv6 gateway?

    Since your router is directly connected to the modem, you get a /56 prefix. On the LAN side you should be able to have a unique /64 subnet which allows routing to your hosts. For rtsold that runs on the WAN interface should receive the address from your ISP, you can start scripts to further...

    Solved IPv6 gateway?

    You have already a router on the /64 prefix with your Fritzbox that does SLAAC. Switch it off and make it a real modem (it's a router now, not a bare modem!) or live with the SLAAC on from the Fritzbox. SLAAC is only defined on 64 prefixlen, by the way.

    Solved Samba41 core dump after moving to 4.1.18

    (I really don't know how you managed to use Samba 4.x at all. It has always coredumped for me on FreeBSD and I am not surprised here. This why I am still using 3.6.) When I want to downgrade, I get the old ports tree and (eventually) it's direct dependencies that are tightly coupled with the...

    ZFS CAM Status issues

    Also notice that the disk is quite hot and already touched the critical limit, at least one time (hence the "failed" message here). Reduce the temperature below 40°C. This is also the usual limit when running servers.

    Windows as a Guest OS

    I think when you want to use passtrough, you need to make sure that the host system does not grab the USB device (loads drivers for it). Passthrough works for me an VirtualBox 4.x very well. It's painless for devices that are not recognized at all by FreeBSD and for the others, I need to...

    OK, I'm having a hard time understanding this "cloud" stuff

    Docker does not look like a virtualization and neither like a security middleware. It rather looks like someone is missing easy-to-use 3rd-party application distribution mechanism for Linux (only), similar to Apple's dmg images or Microsoft's install.exe.

    OK, I'm having a hard time understanding this "cloud" stuff

    Yes, this works mostly, because web is agent-based (distributed system), and even better when you obey its basic principles (REST). On the other hand the principles of web are usually neglected.

    OK, I'm having a hard time understanding this "cloud" stuff

    A common understanding of cloud architectures is that they support "elasticity". That means that if you add a further bootstrapped node, all the architecture will expand and gain efficiency. It's essentially a distributed system simulating one undistributed system (you don't need to code every...

    Samba41 conversion errors

    Samba 4.1 is very bad. When I evaluated it a year ago, the client even crashed with all kinds of simple smbclient commands. I am also on 3.6, but I am worried, because Samba stopped supporting it, if I remember correctly. Also the development strategy of the protocols sound horrible. They...

    Solved What is the best HDD image tool in FreeBSD?

    Something different: I wouldn't make images, because they are inflexible (you cannot restore them on other partition layouts and sometimes even not on other physical disks). ZFS has got snapshots and for this zfs send. UFS has got one of the most advanced utilities called dump which operates...

    How do I Setup up a Multi-User Git Server

    I use devel/gitolite for serving devel/git repositories. With this you get access similar to what is offered by https://github.com/, but with more features (fine-grained access control, hooks and much more).

    E2200 ethernet not probed during boot

    Try ifconfig -a if it is not set up, yet. You don't need to load the most network interface modules. That's why the system complaints about it.

    Solved Pidgin SSL/TLS problem

    I just want to mention that pidgin always has run fine for me with the defaults (with GNUTLS setting). Are you sure that SSL/TLS is the problem?

    Solved iKare keyboard layout. How to make it for FreeBSD?

    Files for specific layouts for Xorg are typically in directory /usr/local/share/X11/xkb/symbols. You can take a look at the one in /usr/local/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us for US layout. It is a good idea to use one of the variants there, because you could lose some keys. Such layouts are modular and...
