FreeBSD way of installing old version from ports tree

2008-06-09 Thread Simon Jolle
Hi FreeBSD users

Currently in /usr/ports/sysutils/syslog-ng there is version syslog-ng
1.6.12. I need version syslog-ng 1.6.5 (the same as in production
environment) to test configuration changes.

Is there an archive of the ports tree? Whats the FreeBSD way to
install this old version integrated in the rest of the system?

cheers
Simon

 I expect you need something like:
 
 find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 grep pattern

Or install the GNU grep (from the man)

-R, -r, --recursive
Read all  files  under  each  directory,  recursively;  this  is
equivalent to the -d recurse option.

Sorry you are right. I didn't had any FreeBSD box around.

 I've noticed this was solved after recompiling the kernel.
  Maybe it's also another method available, but since I'm using a custom
  kernel I did not looked for it.

I have the same problem here. Uname shows 7.0-RELEASE after reboot
and freebsd-update to 7.0-RELEASE-p1.

How to solve this without recompiling kernel?

 Hi i have checked freebsd 8 and now i can see the boot loader, but
  when i try to load the kernel it freezes up. Ok at least i can see the

  Any sugestions? (about running freebsd in hyper v or freebsd

I recommend you using other virtualization software. For example
Vmware and VirtualBox (now Sun) have official support for FreeBSD and
runs on Windows hosts.

 Hi:

Hi Natham

 Im trying to set up a FreeBSD VM under Hyper-V but i the instalation
 do not start. i try x86 and x64 boot disk only (for a net install).
 The error i got is cant load kernel.

See Supported Guest OS on Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V[0]. As far as I
know Microsoft made modifications in the guest kernel. Thats why in
unix-like world only Microsoft partner Novell is supported.

 Im a novice on FreeBSD but i have set up a few small server with it. Any idea?

 It's not actually portmanager, it's the ports-system itself. This
 question comes-up regularly. Try looking for the thread:

 overnight upgrade interrupted by questions

Thank you, the thread can be found here[0]. I use now portupgrade -a --batch
There are so many port management tools. Which one is officially
recommended? What do you use and why?
