To my knowledge you have only two options. One is to synchronize /etc/group, /etc/passwd, and /etc/master.passwd on your FreeBSD NFS file server and your client UNIX/UNIX-like machines (note that the above files might have slightly different names on OS X, and Linux). I have yet to come across...

OpenBSD had a support for Bluetooth technology but it was removed in part because it is super insecure technology and in part because nobody wanted to maintain it. https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=143766062911950&w=2 I wage $100 that OpenBSD will never again have a Bluetooth support.

dm-crypt is ported to DragonFly which shares the same ancestry with FreeBSD so you could check out DragonFly BSD source code and see how difficultly would be to port it to FreeBSD. As mentioned in one of earlier posts FreeBSD uses geli and since you prefer dm-crypt over LUKS on Linux you must be...

vermaden I know you for many, may years as a very serious UNIX guy. Please tell me that I am hallucinating or that you have little bit too much to drink when you posted that BS.

If it is not PostScript printer you are out of luck my friend. Generally speaking there are few collection of open source printer drivers for Linux and BSDs. They are contained in the following packages: GhostScript, Gutenprint, hpijs (HPLIP), and splix. There are also bunch of binary blob...

I have never used sshfs on FreeBSD but on OpenBSD user mount option was removed about a year ago. I don't recall the reason but you can probably find out on tech@openbsd. You have to be root to mount the file system. https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=149805347118472&w=2 Have you read man...

stream You first stop should have being OpenPrinting database. Quick search indicates that all-in-one device should be fully supported including scanning. http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Canon/Canon-i-Sensys_MF4150_AKA_imageCLASS I took a clue from one of the comments and found PPD...

it has total of 4 ports 2 of which are 6Gb/s and 2 have speed 3Gb/s. Use faster ports for data drives. Two let say Golds of 8TB in ZFS mirror. Your bottleneck is going to be 1Gig/s NIC unless you upgrade to infiniband.

Did you check my post? Here it is again Motherboard: Supermicro Atom C2758 64GB DDR3 PCIE SATA USB Mini ITX DDR3 1333 NA Motherboards MBD-A1SRI-2758F-O I have 32 GB of ECC Unbuffered memory although Sodimm 204 which is more expensive than normal standard size server ECC unbuffered memory.

That is a desktop motherboard. I have J4205. It is collecting dust. Unfortunately even OpenBSD has no stable video driver for Apollo Lake https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=150977304620767&w=2 X is crashing. DragonFly guys have some patches. One of OpenBSD guys was playing with it. I will...

Thanks for correcting me. I fixed the post. In academia where I worked around that time was all Solaris. I didn't have access to the large NFS clusters at that time so I can't speak what people were running. However the only other things I remember from 90s was Irix and Tru64 which was by the...

Interesting for whom, historians of scientific computing? FreeBSD version refereed in that article is 4.xxx. The guy who wrote the article was a serious FreeBSD kernel contributor. Most people can't effort to time to become kernel contributors before using clusters to do the science...

You are giving us here very little to work with. Could you please give us machine's physical specs, purpose of the hardware, and the size of ZFS pools. One of my main file servers with multiple ZFS pools totaling 250 TB is rock stable with 128 GB of RAM. I have no less than 50 NFS clients...

I built few of these for few local business happily running FreeBSD 11.1. Price is well under $1500. Very light on electric consumption Motherboard: Supermicro Atom C2758 64GB DDR3 PCIE SATA USB Mini ITX DDR3 1333 NA Motherboards MBD-A1SRI-2758F-O RAM 4x8GB=32 GB: Micron Consumer Products...

There is none! If you are interesting in scientific computing and clusters start by installing ROCKS and learning from the community. http://www.rocksclusters.org/

Thank for the tip on incoming book. Call me old fashioned but for serious shell programming I really like ksh93 language.

Except to quote the carton "every innovation in the past decade comes from Solaris". FreeBSD has very little code to show for. Actually just deleting lot of code would be a great start. If the community was not offended by the people like Matt Dillon who actually know what they are doing maybe...

Your English appears to be as bad as mine. On the second read I realized that you were referring to CUPS as non-default print spooler rather than HPLIP. Originally I read that you were referring to HPLIP as a printing spooler. Either way you can use printing drivers from HPLIP print/hpijs with...
