    portmanager quiet

    I am using the normal portmanager -u but it keeps asking me to select options for every so often of packages options, I want to all default options without interaction. Does that make sense. I want it to operate in quiet mode in some sort, any ideas.

    portmanager quiet

    Hi there, I want to upgrade my ports but since I have so many out of date, can I run portmanager with a quiet option so it stops asking me iteratively to upgrade my options, if this is possible? It is so annoying to be sitting in front of the box for hours waiting for this iteration to go away...

    ping: sendto: Host is down

    Hi guys, I figured it out. It seems the routing table for all three bad hosts got corrupted somehow, I pull half of my hair trying to figure out. The bottom line is, I solved it by doing the following. route delete default 192.168.1.1 route add default 192.168.1.1 I am so glad this is working...

    Things are just very strange, all hosts can ping each other since they are all connected to the same switch, all 5 hosts can ping other hosts in a different switch within the same VLAN, the problem appears to be link after packets go out and try to cross the gateway. I can ping the 5 hosts from...

    I am hoping it is safe to stay "CURRENT" until 9 gets the "RELEASE" flag, right?

    Problems installing via USB and CDROM

    think I know what the error is link to, it all boils down to FreeBSD 8.2R unable to read GPT partition tables. I loaded 9.0 RC1 and remove all GPT partitions and made them all BSB and the system is up and running. Wish 8.2R had something to remove partitions, BTW the installer in 9.0 appears to...

    FreeBSD datacenter management alternatives.

    Dear all, I have been in the process of migrating some of our servers from Windows to FreeBSD. Quite a challenge but doable I think. The only problem I have experienced is the pain in my fingers from using the command line. I have tried configuring every single service using the shell and it is...

    Triple boot - Windows XP, Windows 7 and FreeBSD 8.1 with GRUB2.

    synonymous, GRUB appears to be dead. EasyBCD is way better and I got quad boot working. Move on from GRUB>
