services

I use FreeBSD as a desktop only. I notice there are some services running which I don't probably need, which are safe to disable? I tried, for example, to disable rpcbind but when I did, XFCE wouldn't load. I'm not serving/hosting files or anything nor is my desktop connected to other systems...

I'm thinking about switching my server from Debian to FreeBSD. I'd like to know if all the services I use are available on FreeBSD. Mainly, I have doubts about Immich since I think it's not compatible with FreeBSD. If it's not compatible, could you tell me what other option I could use? What...

Hello, I couldn't find any information from the web on how to make a shell script which can automatically execute commands that require "su" privileges during user login. I have read that I can store the shell script at "/etc/profile.d/" location which did not exist by default and I had to...

I have just found rtprio, and it does what I want wonderfully well: To make specific system services execute and return data to a front-end blazing fast even on an (intentionally) heavily loaded machine in terms of CPU usage by running something like # rtprio 0 -n on them, with n being the...

I started working with a great web server called caddy and started working on an rc.d script to get it running as a service. I put together a script that mostly worked seen here. The bug in this original script was that the service would start on boot/reboot, but it didn’t play well with the...
