Although, looking at the output of top, most of the memory is in the inactive state. As I understand it cache pages go from active to cached, and the inactive queue contains pages that need to be written out to swap before they can be reused. No. It just means they're not active -- nothing has touched them recently. They may be dirty. They may not be. Recently means the last 20 seconds to a minute, depending. The very high level of inactive memory looks suspiciously like a memory-leak to me. Hopefully someone who knows more about this will step in - don't take my word for it. I have no data on the system in question, but it's very common for a machine to have large amounts of inactive memory, particularly one that's not under any sort of memory pressure. My basically idle workstation has 1.5 GB of memory, 5 MB free, and over a gig inactive. Since I'm not doing anything with it (I'm writing this from another machine), and its just hanging out, this is what I'd expect. Should it do something that requires memory, the pager will toss clean inactive pages to the free list, and they'll be reused. Of course, if what they're required for is something they already have in them (like the code segments of recently terminated application that's restarted), they'll get reused, saving having to read them from disk. The only time you'll large amounts of memory on the Free list is when a machine is first booted and hasn't touched that memory for anything, or when an application that's got a large dyanmically allocated block of memory terminates. The rest of the time, the free list should be small.

Life is made somewhat easier if you install XP first, then install FreeBSD. It's very useful to have a slice on the disk that has a Fat32 file system on it, so you can easily move data from one system to the other.

Windows/FreeBSD VPNs
I need to set up a VPN so a remote windows client can access some Samba shares. All of the documentation I've found are for FreeBSD to FreeBSD tunnels, not for a client connecting directly.

I have a doubt on crontab.The question is how to write a crontabwhich takes the back-up at 11:59 pm daily and every tuesday of the week Hope i will receive the answer soon. I don't quite understand what you want. The format of a line in a crontab file is as follows. There are five columns that specify the time to run the job at: Minutes Hours Day of Month Month Day of week 59 23 * * * /path/to/script Would run /path/to/script every day at 11:59 pm. If what you want to do is only run it on tuesday, 59 23 * * 2 /path/to/script The utility to install crontabs is called crontab. The format of entries is defined in the crontab(5) man page. 'man 5 crontab' will allow you to read that. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: What's the proper way to use ctags?
Let say I want to quickly browse through all the source files in a given directory. What I tried was I ran ctags -R source_dir, which builds a tag file for the entire source. When I start vim in that directory and view files in the sub directories, tag works just fine. But when I go into other directory(outside of vim), since there is no tag file there, I can't use the tag feature anymore. I could ran ctag in all sub directories, but then I won't be able to search for functions that are define outside of the sub directory. So what's the proper way to use ctag? You need to tell vim where your tag files are. :set tags=./tags,/path/to/your/tags (note the lack of a space character there!) I think the default is just ./tags. Or perhaps it's tags,./tags. I don't remember. Read the vim help files on tags :help tags Regards, David ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
