Having to manually update loader is odd compared to every other OS I've used.
While that tool is cool, I'm still curious how it compares to a more-generic rsync check on EFI.
I'm not a fan of bootcode, sectors, and etc on MBR/Legacy set-ups...
Sorry bad of me to not give the error. Ive not used freebsd for years. Are ports (make install clean) not the preferred method anymore? I tried pkg install rslsync but after it mentioned something about a truncated package it gave up

Zare you seem to be contradicting yourself somewhat, or I am misreading what you're trying to say. Something like a serivce jail is tiny. It doesn't orchestrate the startup of a whole amusement park full of background services, or it defeats its...
rc.d and systemd are glorified autoexec.bat+config.sys re-implementations that both seem to not like actual user-independency and add a lot of complexity for no reason. "Learn our documented zoo." Not using it for years. We have 1 script that...
Who is "we" and who is "the people". You speak like a politician from the elite ("we") that care for "the people".
I indeed do not need "a parallel service framework", do not even know for what can it be good,

Absolutely and with VMs so accessible now, the only reason not to tinker with whatever catches your fancy is the time involved in doing so as you can usually set things up so that even if you badly screw it up, at least you've still got a system...
I need to do this in simple stages because somehow I ended screwing up the network and couldn't even ping the host.
I noticed that when I added gateway_enable="YES" and then ran service netif restart a msg came up saying IP address...
How's that tool compare to this at the end of a update script?
rsync -a --no-times --checksum --checksum-choice='sha1' '/boot/loader.efi' '/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/bootaa64.efi'
I wouldn't personally either, but OTOH, VMs are a thing that most computers can handle these days, so at least people can walk through the process on that if they feel compelled to learn how to do it. But, personally, I can't say that I've ever...
It is now official. Internet User #54797 has confirmed: FreeBSD is dying.
Why would I? Skimmed the code and it doesn't even handle my setup. This is a less than 5 minute per year task + I trust the wisdom of experienced people saying this isn't...
I don't run a webserver. But I do run an email server and need public certs so that my email server can do MTA-to-MTA TLS encrypted sessions. For me, lego is the ACME client to use since it has a built-in webserver for the ACME server to...
Hey there...
I am running xfce under xlibre (latest packages).
I have 2 problems so far:
1. I cannot change the desktop background. (minor issue)
2. The screen poweroff time in the power management settings is not considered. the screen stays on...
This silly thread should disappear. FreeBSD will outlive you and I so just learn how to use it properly and get on with life.
Slightly dispute that statement but really its not the point. So far you have not been able to provide a meaningful...
That was a clear question. I simply suspect you are a little bit inexperienced and can't project the needs of others over their own use-cases. That's fine, you aren't alone, the internet is filled with this.
I will repeat the question. What way do you feel the project should go if people have a different view of what 'forward' represents? Your definition of 'forward'? You have to consider that is equally unlikely as anyone elses.
You feel a risky...
Your view of what 'forward' is may differ to another person's view of 'forward'. What do you say to that? What direction would the project go in that case?
A 'junior' FreeBSD member could well be someone who has dealt with UNIX/Linux for decades...
Could it actually be that you simply disagreed with the knowledgable people (and still do)? A random 3rd party port doesn't seem to suggest a shift in people's viewpoints here. I doubt anyone else even knows that port exists because they don't...

I have a Asus ExpertCenter PN41-S1 mini PC. This has Intel WiFi, and uses the iwlwifi driver.

Greetings,
I don't know about you. But with all the other things I do, when I do need to (re)format a drive, so I can add, or replace one I already have commissioned on a FreeBSD system. Seems I can never remember the correct incantation. Sure...
Tolerant? I don't think any a-technical audience cares about whatever people do with their system components if it has no substantial explanation.
I might do it if a secure boot vulnerability appears.
I have trenched into the waters dive deep into the audio subsystems swimming across from pulseaudio (got that to work using dsp4 new hardware and pulse-oss layer) to sndio (sound suddenly stops) then virtual oss (got that working) but after some...
Ha! Finally, a chance to thank you for that handy tool. You've completely won me over with it.
Plus, it's saved me a lot of time and hassle.
And much more... :)
Thank you!

I am using nginx + security/acme.sh. Dynamic DNS update using nsupdate to our authoritative bind nameserver at work and nginx + .well-known location for personal servers with this conf snippet

I was and am thinking on trying nginx. h2oserver looks interesting, I did not know it, and is in packages:

For me, naviserver is the most interesting, and have cgi, but since there is no package, I...
Found it on my own in pkg, before seeing your post bakul, thank you anyway for pointing to the thread.

Ok, boys (and girls), I just compiled my KDE compositor without all the nasty X11 stuff, and I got it to work. It's a thing of beauty. I spent hours on this, but it's done and done.
Basically, just compiled x11-wm/plasma6-kwin with a couple of...
What happens if you run it again? Or did it complete anyway? it looks strrange. Why does updating binary files need swap space? Did it happen on a large one like lang/rust?
If the swap error is still going on, I would create a swapdrive of a...
We quit using RSA decades ago. I don't know anyone who still uses it. It's been broken and services will flag it. I'd have to look up which one I use now.
Older needs to be bigger and are slower to process for getting the same security as the newer.
The difference are the algorithms. In spite of it, RSA is still used, perhaps most used.
Sheesh, NapoleonWils0n, Let it go. (Another reference to the movie for those who think I'm criticizing NapoleonWils0n).
