If you're not a bind expert but using bind, it probably isn't. Personally, I use dns/dnsmasq for such situations, as that's pretty much what it's designed to do.

Once the have added it you will need to wait for the .org tld zone to update (not sure of their schedule but better than the once or twice a day of 10 years ago :) The other way around this is to have the nameservers for the domain to be in an already resolving domain, that way you dont need to worry about glue.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 All hashs have issues with pooling see http://www.burtleburtle.net/bob/hash/index.html... btw it is a old wives tale that the number of buckets should be prime (mostly based on the very weak implementation Knuth offered) Forgot to mention this is a theortical not an implementation issue namely if the range of H is a proper subset of it's domain (which by definition all finite operations are when considering them over all integers) then there exists no bijective (i.e. one to one mapping) function between the two... thus even if the bucket count is equal to the number of elements to be hashed there will be collisions [roughly 1/3] unless you use something like gperf to find a perfect hash (this is impractical for all non-dictionary [i.e. static compile time content] applications) - -- Aryeh M.

This looks like an interesting project - are you using hashes not
for speed but as a generic storage organization algorithm?
And, I think at least some of the popular non-crypto hash
algorithms could be easily extended to work with 64-bit integers -
are you really using the big hashes for this?
Yes using it as a DB table indexing, the exact details are under an
NDA but I can give some numbers though like a table lookup on a 2^32
record table requires no more then 4 disk reads (averages out to
between 3 and 4) and 2k or RAM [namely gives O(log_k(n)) we have,
successfully used k=256 even though k=256 is the most natural value,
time performence and O(1) when considering primary store requirements
only... in other words when the table size = 2^processor word size you
need word size/8 lookups at most to find anything])... hopefully once
the patents are in place I can give more details (I am hoping to make
the reference implementation as FOSS as possible {while not
invalidating the strength of the patent} [see my blog for details on
the business model I am planning])

The following summary of results is based on my eyeballing of answers and should not be interpreted as being any sort of mathematically and/or scientifically valid in any manner. Number of responses: roughly 30 Summary of results: 1. Most respondents stated that both the underlaying OS and the ports collection are equally important.

The single best aspect of the ports system according to respondents is dependency tracking when installing new ports 4.

questions on development(7)
First of all I am posting to both -current and -hackers because -hackers seems to be very low volume. I just set up a master server development server using the procedure in development(7) which was fairly clear but left a few questions unanswered (and one odd behavior). I have only the master server (no clients). Just for ref my dir tree looks like this: /home/ncvs --- /FreeBSD/CVSROOT /FreeBSD/7.x (src) /FreeBSD/current (src ports doc) /usr/src --- /FreeBSD/7.x /usr/src2 --- /FreeBSD/current /usr/ports --- /FreeBSD/current/ports /usr/obj is on it's own partition My questions: 1. If I am modifing code and such should I have a local branch? 2. If yes to #1 how do I setup keeping everything except my modified code in sync (and if possible to retro activally apply patchs from the local branch unto the main source tree [/usr/src2]) 3. The documentation said very little about how to generate patchs between my local code and the main branch a. Ideally I want to set it up where when I am done with a modification it automatically creates a patch (I have never used CVS for anything except through csup and cvsup so I am totally lost here) 4. Mergemaster behaves strange now: everytime I run it does a buildworld before doing the merge (even if I just did a installworld)... also it seems to default this to /usr/src2 (which is most of the time what I want)... is this normal? and if so how do I turn it off and if I can't how do I set which source tree to use? -- Aryeh M.

Re: questions on development(7)
2. If yes to #1 how do I setup keeping everything except my modified code in sync (and if possible to retro activally apply patchs from the local branch unto the main source tree [/usr/src2]) You won't be able to commit to the BSD repo from your server. I think you should treat your repo as read only and use cvsup to keep it up to date. At least that's what I do. What I meant was how do I keep from clobbering my local changes? -- Aryeh M.
