    Solved File and Directory Watcher

    I read an article in the past about using auditd events to trigger a backup with rsync that would work in principle for this. The article was originally referenced in http://www.nycbsdcon.org/2010/presentations/nycbsdcon-freebsd-audit.pdf but the source appears to be gone. A good start would...

    RPC: Port mapper failure

    Since you are using DNS names it seems like a logical possibility. What DNS software are you using? Is it listed before /etc/rc.d/mountcritremote in rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/*.

    Python package error

    All the work is already with the port, do cd /usr/ports/lang/python27; make install. If you are compiling the upstream Python release than you have to do the extra work that ports handles.

    Solved NRPE2 paths set up; python(+other) plugins

    I don't run this so all I can do is get a "connection denied" instead of an "unable to read output". If you can find there is something wrong with the configuration of the port then we can see about was needs to be fixed. If I understand this correctly, ln -s /usr/local/bin/python2...

    Issues with python web applications in jails

    Is everyone running the most recent 10.2-RELEASE patch level? The closest errata I see is some very specific things regarding threading that don't seem to directly related to the issue we are seeing and I am having no issues building on both a patched 10.2-RELEASE-p5 and unpatched 10.2-RELEASE...

    Solved NRPE2 paths set up; python(+other) plugins

    Is that the only command that isn't working? What's in the very first line of the script? It may just need the shebang fix committed to that port so it refers to the correct Python command.

    Solved Problem with starting MySQL

    I would recommend just doing pkg delete mysql56-server and pkg install mysql56-server to remove your locally compiled one and use the public package. If that works, then start to backtrack on what option is causing the issue.

    Solved Problem with starting MySQL

    Can you test without the specialized options and see if that resolves the issue? There may be a bug with one of the non default options. If so and you can find which one it is a PR submission to https://bugs.FreeBSD.org/bugzilla/ would be extremely useful for the maintainer to know there are...

    Solved Problem with starting MySQL

    This particular line seems interesting. /usr/local/libexec/mysqld: Too many arguments (first extra is 'Project.pid'). Use --verbose --help to get a list of available options What does sysrc -a | grep mysql output? Have you made any modifications to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server or set any...

    Question about gcc/gdb

    Does devel/gdb work? Off the top of my head I can't remember the differences between the port and base GDB but I thought there were indeed some differences in what they support.

    RPC: Port mapper failure

    Does adding the 'late' option to /etc/fstab for that mount help? I don't see that as a recommendation in the FreeBSD Handbook: NFS section but it may be an option. There may be some local network configuration to consider that is preventing this from working at boot. What about name...

    Unbound DNS Privacy

    This is most likely better suited toward asking upstream directly. I would suggest the Unbound mailing lists. If you get a helpful answer a pointer to the mailing list thread here would be great.

    RPC: Port mapper failure

    A freebsd-update fetch never got the chance to modify any in use files. Only an interrupted freebsd-update install would cause a potential issue. Boot in single user mode and comment out all NFS mounts from /etc/fstab. Do return to let it boot fully. Then troubleshoot why it's having issues...

    Does FreeBSD become slow when the hard drive starts to get full?

    I've never used Apple software so I don't know what file system they use by default. The simplistic answer for FreeBSD is ZFS, because of it's copy on write design, will lose performance as the drives get full while UFS maintain performance. However don't base an opinion on one single metric...

    Solved How the DNS installation on FreeBSD 10.2

    Thanks. Technical details, command output, and pictures if needed help make up for language so don't worry about it too much. Thanks for tagging this as solved as well.

    OpenSMTPd not worthy of OpenBSD name

    We all make mistakes in software just as in anything else. Fix it quickly, learn from it, and move on. At the end of the day, all software is imperfect software written by imperfect people and sometimes we just choose what sucks the least based on our end goal.

    Solved How the DNS installation on FreeBSD 10.2

    Ah. If you are that picky about the DNS records than contacting Godaddy may be the only option from the looks of the management panel.

    Solved How the DNS installation on FreeBSD 10.2

    Ah. Well it's a CNAME (alias) record. Just set the first first host (the '@') to the correct IP address and both will resolve to the same address.

    Solved How the DNS installation on FreeBSD 10.2

    I've never used Godaddy before so I am not familiar at the level of control you have. If you control the web server you can configure this yourself using the manual I referenced above else you would have to contact Godaddy.
