I have a small LAN getting addresses via DHCP. I want to be able to resolve LAN addresses. I have only one NIC. I have used named (bind?) and unbound. I don't remember how to configure either to get their DNS addresses from a DHCP server. I have looked and dnsmasq, but it seems that I have...

Shoot! That is it exactly. I thought I had set a mountpoint. Looks like I didn't. Thank you. -JJ

You gave me an idea for a search I had not tried. That led me to this thread that explained what I thought and gave me a solution. What I ended up doing was disconnected the newly installed drive. Booted on my installation USB stick, and executed zpool import zroot zold Then I put the new...

I have a quandary that I don't know where to go for an answer. I am running FreeBSD 12.1. I installed samba413-4.13.0. When I went to install xfce4, it removes Samba 413 and installs samba410-4.10.18. As near as I can tell there seems to be little difference between the two, other than Samba...

If I'm running a pure FreeBSD computer, then wouldn't a non-GPT partition be okay. My problem was not cleaning the disk, if there is such a thing.

Since I converted the whole computer to FreeBSD, SirDice's suggestion explained what had happened and his solution worked. The idea of using the whole disk... is just what I did. I really can't give a reason for one way or another. Given the speed of computers, today, I don't think there is...

Okay. I will get the data off it, nuke it and go from there. Thank you. -JJ

That makes sense. But then why am I getting the error? -JJ

I am getting Nov 3 22:03:32 anthem kernel: GEOM: ada3: the primary GPT table is corrupt or invalid. Nov 3 22:03:32 anthem kernel: GEOM: ada3: using the secondary instead -- recovery strongly advised. This started in October where I took an ext4 drive and made /dev/ada3 a zpool drive, naming...

Well, crap. I looked at the suggested sites and my solution was to install tightvnc. It works, it does what I need. Thank you for the replies. -JJ

I am rebuilding my FreeBSD 12.1 server. As part of the process, I installed tigervnc, pkg install tigervnc-server-1.11.0. When I went to start vncserver I get a "Command not found" error. Using find, there is no file called vncserver. I checked my backup and I found the file...

I manage to kill the computer, I got it back with a hard reboot. Oops. I decided to upgrade my hard disk to a 1G SSD. I like the idea of doing a dry-run. There is a disadvantage to using the "Big Hammer." LOL I will chalk this up to one of those never use that hammer. Kinda like that rm...

Next Question: Still reading. I did get the FreeBSD Mastery Advanced ZFS book. :) A little less confused. I also installed sysutils/zap The zap man page has helped a lot. I took a snapshot zroot@snapshot_091120_1502. Everything I have done since taking the snapshot has worked out as...

Will the/emulators/linux-c7 support a graphics output from within the CentOS installation? MythTV wants a GUI to configure its initial setup. -JJ
