I've been playing with this for a while because I found it interesting and I'm equally stuck. Once you apply any of your configurations, the only way of inserting a "j" character is by pressing ^V before, which is very unpractical. And I have not...

Not at all. And I'm positive it applies to the vast majority who come here and stay.

I wouldn't go to any social media platform for the "likes". I would only go for information though the comaraderie of this place is special versus any other place.

This past Sunday, February 1st, was the first day of the week and the first day of the month. Which means I had a daily, weekly and monthly backup due. I always felt strange about that because you are wiping out all chance of recovering something...

I had no problem finding FreeBSD after looking for an alternative to Linux :p

If the PPD from open printing doesn't work, you could probably also give the universal driver from Brother a go in the linuxulator. It does use CUPS, so there might be a PPD that can be extracted for use. EDIT: I downloaded the source and there...

you could try the Foomatic PPD from OpenPrinting.org's PPD generator — this runs print jobs through GhostScript to rasterize them to the printer's format. you'll need to install foomatic-db and foomatic-filters along with ghostscript, probably.

Another important thing to learn about rsync is what effect a trailing "/" has on the source and the destination.

I unfortunately dropped a piece of metal in the wrong spot on my motherboard which caused the computer to shutdown instantly. Upon restarting the machine (TrueNAS Core 14 ) kernel would panic when it came to mounting my pool (12 disks, 2 zdev...

It's sort of a meaningless question. ZFS by default doesn't really care about how the files are distributed within the pool so long as the total doesn't exceed limits. It will keep track of how much is allocated to what and you won't really care...

Thank you, gotnull. That seems to work. It is SIGNIFICANTLY different than anything else I've read and thank you. I'll need to experiment with it some more.

No.

/etc/rc.local

Yes. In fact that is a good test of your backup procedure.

The rc part for programs in /usr/local?

In that case, it might be worth reinstalling with ZFS if you have the means to shuffle the files. Having things like /tmp on the same filesystem as other things can increase the risk of corruption.

There is rc.local

Loader.conf is before the kernel. /etc/rc is closer but it launches the configured programs in the rc.d multitasking/background construct that has no direct CLI I/O. Maybe between rc and login, still with all single-user permissions like root.

T-Aoki I actually have an EMS card in my XT, today. EMS is a kind of pure PC(/XT) thing. With the 286 came XMS. They're actually a same thing, interfaces provided by DOS drivers to equip possibility of mapping large amounts of RAM to real mode...

... and then there was overlays, which brought a whole lot of other problems to the party...

What I do is auto-login to a shell on the alt-F1 console and have the shell execute things if we are ttyv0 and we just booted according to the uptime command. I think there really should be an autoexec.bat style startup script that just runs...

Which can be confusing as there are redirect and nat options, just not routing ones. Which if I'm understanding things correctly, PF can stamp the right bits on the packet to be routed to the right place, just not establish the routing that the...

Yes, change the script like this: #! /bin/sh set -x mount /dev/whatever /mnt ( [acutual script] ) 2>&1 | tee /mnt/log

I meant is it possible to see those messages output during the boot process which are not shown by dmesg?

Hi friends, A video about OPNsense in French

I would posit "more than just interesting". Not every pull request should be commited, but should at least be addressed and a valid reason given.

He could believe that a $DEITY made the Earth in 7 days for all I care. If his technical skills are up to scratch, he can still produce great results with a computer (just don't position him as head of the NHS or equivalent).

Interesting. It seems the X.org maintainers themselves have been outright gatekeeping patches and improvements from contributors, for the past four years. Insane. Things make more sense now. I’m really looking forward to this port.

Not to derail the thread, but, if you see the word "slave" and immediately think "black people", perhaps you are the problem.

Common misconception, PF is a packet filter (and manipulator), not a routing engine. Packet filters do NOT route.

This is in your mind. Stop contaminating this thread, please. Did you register here with blocked profile to push your absurd ideas?

Then it's pretty much out of our hands. And you'll need to look for a potential cause further upstream.

I don't believe pkgbase was ever touted as being faster for installs (on it's face I don't believe it can be). It will (does?) have package sets so it might be approximately comparable and allow for more flexibility. Where it is meant to be...

Same. Very much doubt its specific to a driver and only fails for specific type of packet (DNS query). Isn't it something super obvious? Typo in a firewall rule for example? And I'd run tcpdump on the host's egress interface, just to verify...

I believe at some point freebsd-update is meant to be re-implemented to make use of pkgbase and as such would carry the boot environment functionality along with it. (hopefully I didn't imagine reading that but it's been a few months:)

To have a symbol attached to your permanence. Something to remind you of something that you always carry with you, like an extreme photo in a wallet type of thing. I'm not into that kind of stuff, not 'politically' against, just not into it...

never...my skin is free of ink , you make me remember this bill gates on south park 🤣

No, and I never will. Simply because I will never get any ink under my skin.

swift as in Java?

That's pretty, definitively, dead. If there's I/O issues for example you'll notice pings would still work, but you'd be unable to login with ssh. Parts that don't require disk access would continue to work, like the TCP/IP stack itself. Anything...

I run bhyve instances in tmux. Allows me to reattach to the actual console.

You can wrap it in (...) and redirect to a file. Of course that requires a read-write mounted filesystem. Maybe it is easiest to use a USB stick and mount it right there in the script. Don't forget about the -x option, which might come in handy...

Thanks T-Daemon. Your CLI command is slightly different than what I've seen bandied about and different from what is described in the pkgbase manpage as well. I'll experiment with it.

The links above reference a removed port, it's filesystems/lkl nowadays, not sysutils/fusefs-lkl. That said, the port seems to checkout at a commit made in Jun 28, 2018 (git repository has no version tags; commit date is also referenced in the...

What filesystem is the host using? And what filesystem does the guest use? How can you tell? Does it stop responding to the network, does it still ping? What about the console (vm console ...)?
