Hey all,

I'm new to FreeBSD, but not Linux in general.

My question:

in FreeBSD, how do I install apps from a repo?

Ex. in Ubuntu it's "apt-get install <app_name>" and in Fedora is't "yum install <app_name>".

What is this equivilent in FreeBSD?

Thanks.

FreeBSD has nothing to do with 'Linux in general'. Forget about 'apt', 'yum', and 'repos'.

Jeeze dude, that's not very helpful nor polite. But I appreciate you're response. I'm not trying to be an ahole to you, but "forget about ... " is basically a counter-productive statement for a forum as it says "stop trying to learn about <forum_topic>". Just some insight from a fellow forum dweller.

Seriously though, thanks for taking the time to post to this thread.

Thank you to YOU killasmurf86. I suppose I should have looked for a handbook myself before asking a n00b question on the forums.

I appreciate you're response as well.

Like I said originally, I'm fairly knowledgeable with Linux, and FreeBSD is a variant of Linux correct?

Anyhow, thanks again!
