Pull the hard drive, you computer was shipped with, out of the machine and put it in a refrigerator. Then put the newly purchased hard drive in and just install FreeBSD on it.

Not familiar with ATM. IPFilter was scheduled to be removed from the base but vetoed by Juniper networks one of the largest consumers of FreeBSD (JunoOS is customized 4.xxx IIRC) Of course, one could use various directory services on FreeBSD but IIRC YP is the only one that can be accessed...

Tell me that I am hallucinating due to those pills you prescribed to me few weeks ago. You are playing with PowerDNS. I can't believe. When I mentioned NSD (DNS server) and Unbound (DNS resolver) in a thread https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/63078/#post-364536 you declared me legally insane...

So what is the actual question? root@hera:~ # smartctl -i /dev/ada0 smartctl 6.5 2016-05-07 r4318 [FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p4 amd64] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-16, Bruce Allen, Christian Franke, www.smartmontools.org === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Family: SiliconMotion based...

On FreeBSD is equally easy. geom disk list -a . You can check GPT slices (Linux guys call those incorrectly partitions) gpart show. If you have disks which use legacy MBR you can print their slice tables with fdisk -p /dev/ada0 (replace ada0 with actual disk). man disklabel to learn about BSD...

Short answer is that once I realized that I rediscovered :oops: an ancient UNIX phenomena called under-mount point content hiding the fix was easy. I just used autofs to mount all home directories/datasets which are listed as absolute directory paths in /etc/exports file. So if you have 1000...

RTFM

I just spent whole afternoon playing with the new file server I am about to deploy in a very small startup and I have a serious problem. Based on my previous experience in managing ZFS based file servers in Linux/UNIX computing environment I decided this time around to use a separate data sets...

I had no doubts based on your previous posts on this forum :beer:

I doubted that there is much difference in that price range. If you live in U.S. you can go to local junk yard and get probably better stuff. For what is worthy to you I just built two virtual hosts using ASUS Z10PE-D16 WS LGA 2011-v3 Intel C612 PCH SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 SSI EEB Intel Motherboard...

Alpine Linux uses uclibc which doesn't support NSS modules at all so you are quite right. I was not saying that people should start running to switch their FreeBSD based file servers to Alpine Linux. I was trying to make a point that Linux could be super simple (much simpler than FreeBSD) and...

Alpine, the simplest and the easiest of all Linux distros, supports installation on ZFS root let alone ZFS storage space. It uses OpenRC for its init sys. It has Xen Dom0 second to none also. Alpine Linux is far simpler OS than FreeBSD. People are fooling themselves if they think that ZFS has to...

That is a PostScript printer. There is nothing to "fiddle". I have two HL-5250, one at work and one at home. The one at home is network printer. This is the /etc/printcap.conf file # Remote printer must use jetdirect since foomatic-rip doesn't speak LPD rp|HL-5250DN:\...

I just checked this on the freshly installed 11.1-release-p4. Works like a charm! Thank you so much!!! After executing command lklfuse -o type=xfs /dev/da0p1 /mnt I have no problems accessing my data. I would suggest to people to use command gpart show -p /dev/da0 to make sure they have the...

I run Gogs (GitHub clone written in Go) in production even though it is not in the ports. Gitea a Gogs fork is in ports but it is unclear who is winning on the long run. You can find my obsolete Gogs how to on this forum. I waisted a week of my life trying to get GitLab working before it was...

+1 I would be ready to go step further and wage $100 that HAMMER2 will never be ported to FreeBSD. There is just too much bad blood between FreeBSD elders and their former super star developer Matt Dillon. FreeBSD folks have essentially reimplemented large part of Solaris kernel in order to get...

For starters forget about bullshit forums and focus on your pay job:)

Suppose one of your local copies got corrupted. btsync happily synchronized your files. Now you are a happy owner of the five corrupt copies unless the underlining file system was HAMMER1 or ZFS in which case you will be able to recover an un-corrupted version of the file from the HAMMER history...

No you are not! File synchronization software != clustering file system. As a matter of fact file synchronization software != any file system. It is just that file synchronization software whether you are using btsync, rsync, unison, ownCloud or some Windows nonsense. It just uses the default...
