I had websites in /srv/www on openSUSE (iirc ftp defaults there too); I like /srv more than /var for serving content

I think, in /var is the classical place. /usr/local is a FreeBSD custom, because one wants to separate base system from installed packages. But if you have a small root and not a big system mounted on /var, then is not appropriate. Is there a...

Don't you need to run freebsd-update to get freebsd-version -kru to the same levels first? If you don't you are likely to encounter some problems sooner or later. Once all at the same level you can proceed to upgrade to 15.1-RELEASE and then...

In like to put it in /var/www/<website>/ because to me it makes sense to put the data in /var/ as my mail and printer files also live there.

package Make a binary package for the port. The port will be installed if it has not already been. The package is a .pkg file that you can use to install the port on other...

The fact that Firefox is a base for such an important security/privacy/anonymity tool like Tor Browser is worth nothing? It seems that all those tor developers made fundamental mistake by choosing Firefox, buts still somehow, it is (and was, and...

Firefox seemingly has a separate Emoji picker non-Windows? On Windows (FF ESR 140) widget.gtk.native-emoji-dialog doesn't exist and Ctrl + .. doesn't do anything; WinKey + . displays a emoji picker but it seems Windows-native (can open the...

I got a 48GB Gold collection on a NAS :cool: I self-hosted Friendica for a while and used to mirror over to FB and Twitter before API changes, but like it better with no external connections. I can say whatever I want and other federated...

I don't need it for anything. Not running Gnome.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_browser_engines The table lists which rendering engine is used by which browser. The choices are really quite limited. For the original post: NetSurf does a decent job on "basic" browsing and for me...

I've done it again. My bad. I'm now eagerly waiting until SirDice comes with his Magnum or Crivens with his GAU-8 Avenger.

My install crashes on the lack of gsettings-schemas after crtl-period. Is it possible to disable this keyboard shortcut entirely?

NapoleonWils0n You do get loads of admiration and appreciation from me at least. You and vermaden have the knowledge I wanted to have when I first started out with FreeBSD but got side tracked running a business. Now that I'm sort of retired I...

/opt is a linuxism really should be installed under /usr/local/share or /usr/local/libexec

I am not sure how should I reply here ... I mean my first post in about 2005 in (now non-existing) BSDForums.org was how to scroll thru the FreeBSD terminal ... and when BSDForums.org was killed I had more then 7000 posts there. What I mean to...

Without "|", just the two lines with "Host *" and "ServerAliveInterval 60" (and without ""). Somewhere in the man pages is documented. I do not remember, you can ask AI where.

Can You check if this one works better? https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vermaden/lsblk/refs/heads/master/lsblk Thanks, ver

The good things about Mastodon: - There's no endless scroll. - You can actually control your feed. I removed my account because: - It's an echo chamber for people trying to out-left each other. A rage machine. A wannabe Communist bar. - Lots...

Exactly. This is completely safe to show in cartoons. Also Wile E. Coyote trying to eat the Road Runner without her consent is considered safe to show. I'm eager to discuss this on a BlueSky chat :) By the way, I forgot about the iconic...

Like this? # cat /root/.ssh/config │

I think this setting is the time allowed to get authenticated whilst logging in.

Put file ~/.ssh/config in your client (local computer) with: Then the connection will not interrupt.

Here is what I have in my IOCAGE log file when I start my TEST jail. Can anyone shed any light on what is wrong? I have installed dnsmasq on the host assuming it would provide an IP address to this jail but it doesn't seem to. Starting...

I am now stopping my obsession over the audio with the linux-chrome being able to feed the audio streams on the same speaker chromium is using. It is time to settle and not further intrude on adjusting the tunable settings that I overdid causing...

There are settings, but they're not necessarily called timeout but rather grace time. I think you're looking for LoginGraceTime (which is mentioned in /etc/ssh/sshd_config by default btw).

Once upon a time Hotmail tried a Land Grab like that. I still have a copy of their eula somewhere... Claiming ownership and rights to anything you transfer by it has it's drawbacks. Someone made a "beach image" from a famous actress. And posted...

One thing I like about the tool is "show-me"; it tells you exactly what it thinks it should do. That gives one the opportunity to examine the command and then either cut and paste or manually type it.

I see some mention of ChannelTimeout in the man pages, but don't see any mention of it in sshd_config, so don't know where to look.

read the manpage for the sshd configuration file...you will find what you need.

Here is a write up of it.

Rage bait people. Just ignore them. Again, these forums aren't the place.

Can such thng run without needing access to some commercial AI service and do the same with distributed/p2p? I don't believe the significance of a broad direct-memory GPU operation until its scienficially demonstrated. It's only local time...

Hi gang, So, got into a fun argument with someone the other day for calling him out on sharing a "free" online tools website after I had carefully read the websites policies. Policies which heavily contradicted themselves by claiming that "sure...

When I first started out, I would go through /bin and /usr/bin and read all the man pages to learn how they all worked or at least what they were for. When I hired someone new, it was required reading.

Are there any settings within sshd which set a timeout period? I have recently taken on a VPS and find that the SSH sesssion gets an 'operation timeout' after some undetermined time and wondered what sets this timeout period.

Don't need to put the efi partition in fstab any way. The installer automatically puts it there, I often change it to noauto. I'll mount it when I need to update loader.efi but keep it unmounted during normal operations.

please stop comparing that ... it's like comparing apples to oranges - yes, both are fruit and round but that's all.

Don't know, doesn't iocage have something builtin? You might need to configure that to listen on the bridge interface and serve 10.0.0.0/24 addresses.

I typically remove them, I don't mind the same device showing up multiple times under different names, I'm aware this happens and why. But it often confused the heck out of newbies.

I'm trying to learn and document for posterity how to configure ng_tcpmss to lower the MSS of TCP SYN packets passing through an interface. Simple. FYI MSS is a layer 4 concept; other than specific offloading functions interfaces don't deal...
