Hello folks,


I have just baught brand new servers with an 8Gb memory attached to each of these server. I generaly use the "freebsd-update" procedure to update and apply patches to the system.

Problem is the default kernel provided with freebsd-update does not seem to have the PAE support enabled by default.


My question is:
---------------

--->> What will be the best way to upgrade smoothly my system and have my PAE support enabled?

PAE seems to disable kld module used for example if you have a firewal such as ipf (and haven't compiled it in the kernel).


--->> Wouldn't It be better to run amd64 instead of i386?

I have seen that this will allow to take full capacity of the memory - on the other hand there seems to have restriction on the ports
Can anyone let me know if these restrictions will apply to:

- postfix
- postgreSQL
- amavisd-new
- dovecot



--->> What procedure would you suggest to do that properly and on regular basis (every time a patch is issued).



Thanks for your answer(s).


Sincerly yours.
