I'm unable to recreate that error, but ifconfig's stderr isn't to be blindly trusted (see example below) :) Maybe try resetting your config related to devices (devfs.rules, rc.conf) as much as possible and make sure the device is destroyed between every try.
# ifconfig tap0 create 1.2.3,4...
It would be neat with a way to log all terminal input (or simply executed commands with arguments). Logging should preferably be done to an specified file and only when invoked by the user. Output should be easily filtered, or rather omitted completely (output from building wouldn't do much good...
From that I derive:
Driver portability as far as possible (X, ...?)
Use of automatic configuration (X, disk labels, more?)
Variables/labels in configuration files (firewall, rc.conf defaults, more?)
Keeping that in mind can save some head scratching indeed. I assume a basic jails setup...
Thanks! I realize a lot good suggestions are to be found in similar topics (physical HD -> VM, HD -> HD, etc). Use of labels seems to be very encouraged! As opposed to anything X related. To answer your question on that:
I do plan to experiment with X, but probably not before migration. I want...
Before I start working on a new server setup I'd really like to know if it's a good idea to start off on a virtual machine (qemu in my case).
More specifically:
Are there any known implications/restrictions hardware/software wise?
How could one make the configuration as simple and clear as...
This text tries to describe how to get an OpenVPN (security/openvpn) server running inside a jail. The server will use a TUN device, but the same general procedures might work out with a TAP device.

For the sake of closure; my solution was to remove the affected packages and rebuild them from ports instead (simple but time consuming).
Still believe the problem could be solved with some minor hacking though.
I'm really sorry to spam like this... Just don't want anyone digging around too much, or wasting energy giving redundant info.
Existing version of Perl is 5.10.1_1, Apache wants 5.10.1_3 (I mixed the two in first post). the server starts fine anyway.
I found the /var/db/pkg/ dir and all the +...
Oh.. I just noticed that I have /usr/local/sbin/apxs, but I can't run it:
$ cd /usr/local/sbin/
$ ./apxs
./apxs: Command not found.
Hmmm, curiouser and curiouser...
I've installed apache22 from packages (pkg_add -r) from inside a jail on 8.1-RELEASE, that went really smooth except from a warning about existing Perl (perl-x_3) not being the same version as Apache's dependancy (perl-x_1).
Now I want to install php5 from ports (since the version from...

- since it's works flawlessly right out of the box on the Linux distro's I'm running, I use it on BSD's as well (for uniformity). And I really don't notice any difference speed-wise.. guessing I'm the bottle neck in the interaction hehe.
I'll reply for future reference... On 8.1-RELEASE I finally got swedish characters in the terminal with Bash, doing the following:
1. Chose the most fitting alternatives during install (sysinstall).
2. Tried all permutations of Swedish, Latin1, ISO8859-1* between kbdmap and vidfont (as well as...
