Remote access to config FreeBSD server

2007-02-20 Thread satimis

Hi folks,

FreeBSD-6.2-amd64

I'm going to install the captioned OS as server, web/mail/database etc., for
test purpose and without X.  I'm prepared to connect a workstation for fine
tuning the server.  Can I use a Linux workstation to do the job because I
have no FreeBSD workstation here?  OR I must run a FreeBSD workstation.  If
YES, pls advise where can I find relevent steps to do the job.  I'll have
SSH enabled on the server.

I need GUI browser to connect outside World for searching documents and
seeking help.  I found elinks not easy to read html website.

TIA

B.R.

Update and install new packages immediate after installation

2007-02-19 Thread satimis

Hi folks,

FreeBSD-6.2-amd64

Just finished installing the captioned OS which is now working.  There is no
major desktop running on the OS, such as KDE/Gnome/Xfce, as well as some
other necessary applications.  I'll erase the OS soon to make another
installation with new partitions arrangement.  On the 2nd round I'll also
make the same installation.

Please advise after installation completed how to read on CVS on the website
to fetch fresh ports and src tree that I need installing further packages
and updating the system.  Also how to read about its package management and
how to startup.  I expect first to update the system before doing any
further installations and/or customizations. Pointers would be appreciated. 
TIA

B.R.
