I don't think it is possible to restrict ntpd to a certain interface. This can indeed be abused when running jails. You can use restrict to harden your configuration, or choose the simple solution and switch to net/openntpd. ntimed will probably also be a fine alternative when it's ready.

systat with the -ifstat or -netstat options. Also, take a look at gstat. High load is often caused by disk I/O.

BCM43228 here. Doesn't appear to work with bwn.

You'll probably notice §e The fact that Perl is threaded by default now, is probably because the developers are convinced that it should not pose any trouble. There are ports that require Perl to be threaded, like misc/amanda-server. I don't know any ports that can't handle threaded Perl. See...

For the time being, Linux jails are no longer supported in PC-BSD/TrueOS. (source: http://blog.pcbsd.org/2014/01/pc-bsd-we ... -digest-2/)

Re: Can't install p5-Digest-SHA1 (for rkhunter) Maybe your Perl version is too old? Try installing lang/perl5.16 or lang/perl5.18 first.

It explains why Snowden quit his job as a systems administrator. Imagine having to replace hundreds of hard drives each day. I remember reading that Google doesn't care about losing drives with search results, because the web crawlers will find the data back anyway. The NSA probably doesn't...

I'm not sure if there is a sane and manageable way. Nearline storage probably? This is a prime example how money could be better spent. I suppose they also keep backups, which would double the data. Something like what is used for the Wayback Machine is actually smaller. According to Wikipedia...

I have been using an ATEN CS1644 for some years now. Recently, I switched monitors to 2x 2560x1440 and the picture is still as sharp as directly connected to a pc. You can choose to play audio on one pc, connect USB to another, and use the keyboard/mouse/monitor on a third. It's not a cheap...

The upgrade to 9.2-RELEASE went smooth. After the upgrade, I did a zpool status # zpool status rpool pool: rpool state: ONLINE status: The pool is formatted using a legacy on-disk format. The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable. action: Upgrade the pool using...

Regarding 2. "It just works." The problem with Ubuntu server is that it's based on Ubuntu. The result is that features that don't belong on a server get in the server version. Upstart, mountall and a boot splash that hides important messages were really, really troublesome in the past, and...

How did you force a reinstallation of the basejail? If I do ezjail-admin update -U -s 9.1-RELEASE, I get freebsd-update: Cannot upgrade from 9.1-RELEASE to itself

Nothing out of the ordinary. I also usually compile ports without NLS. lang= lc_ctype="c" lc_collate="c" lc_time="c" lc_numeric="c" lc_monetary="c" lc_messages="c" lc_all= Is this a bad idea?

So, is there a way to force ezjail-admin update -u without it telling you freebsd-update: Cannot upgrade from 9.1-RELEASE to itself Or, can the basejail be reinstalled somehow?

Just use pkg_delete. pkg_delete -f `pkg_version -v | grep ^gettext | cut -d " " -f 1` (Let the search for shorter commands commence)

I found a solution, but I'm not sure if it's the right way. Usually, I update the basejail with # ezjail-admin update -u This time, I had to update by running # ezjail-admin -i After that devel/gettext can be compiled, but I'm entirely unsure about this method. Is there something I'm...

I already learned (the hard way) about the importance of /usr/ports/UPDATING, so I followed the instructions. You can see that converters/libiconv was successfully upgraded. ===>>> The following actions were performed: Upgrade of libiconv-1.14 to libiconv-1.14_1 Also, the same...

I fail to upgrade devel/gettext in all jails, while it succeeds on the host. ./localename.c: In function '_nl_locale_name_thread_unsafe': ./localename.c:2607: error: 'locale_t' undeclared (first use in this function) ./localename.c:2607: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only...

I believe libvirt does not have network support in FreeBSD yet.

Try the NFS KIOslave from Dolphin, x11-fm/krusader2 or another KDE file manager. nfs://fileservername/ On the other hand, mounting your shares is actually more flexible. You should also see them in Dolphin
