Re: define more partitions in freebsd

thanks guys, i understand another solution is GPT partitioning. but i prefer to have more partitions in traditional freebsd (with MBR table i think). using GPT is the last solution for me. i should create more than 8 partitions with gpart command (flag n which identifies entries) but i have

Re: openvpn and tap device

I had to use tap0 instead of tun0 to get a connexion. I first create it with ifconfig tap0 create and then make the connexion with openvpn --config your-config-file.ovpn --dev tap0. This works for me. 2013/6/1 Teske, Devin devin.te...@fisglobal.com On May 29, 2013, at 8:52 AM, Pol Hallen

Max top end computer for Freebsd to run on

I'm a sub second speed freak. What is the max number of cpu's and memory size that Freebsd can handle? Can it handle 16 4ghz cpu's and 32gb of memory? I need a gaming server with some really big balls for hundreds of jails. Money is not a deciding factor here, horse power is.

Re: Max top end computer for Freebsd to run on

You mean like a high end rack mount server that's FreeBSD's primary use? One catch about ram, the faster ram comes in smaller sticks. I have four 8Gb sticks for 32Gb, but it's not the fastest ram. The fastest ram tends to be 2Gb sticks. At the moment, FreeBSD's set to a max of 64 cores on
