That depends upon how you are going to manage the package installation on the other machines. If you are using pkg_add(1), then you can either use full URLs like: pkg_add ftp://packagemachineipaddress/packagedirectory/www/firefox-3.5.1,1.tbz or you can define either PKG_PATH, PACKAGEROOT, or PACKAGESITE in the environment in which you're going to call pkg_add: env PACKAGEROOT='ftp://packagemachineipaddress/packagedirectory/' pkg_add -r firefox35 You can test your settings with "pkg_add -nvr" to see from where it is trying to fetch packages. See the pkg_add(1) manpage. Note that if you use pkg_add(1), you are limited to schemes supported by fetch(3) for remote packages. I don't think this includes sftp:// or ftps://, although I think it does support http:// with basic authentication and password-protected ftp. Of course, you could perhaps tunnel your ftp through ssh; or you could turn remote packages into "local" packages by mounting the remote package directory via Samba or NFS, protected by Kerberos or IPSEC if you wish. If you use portupgrade/portinstall -PP, then you can define PACKAGESITE and PKG_FETCH in the environment, where PKG_FETCH is an sftp-aware client like curll(1) from ftp/curl, with the appropriate flags. See the portupgrade(1) manpage. b. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

If a package is upgraded and its dependent packages are given from the com- mand line (including the case where -r is speci- fied), build packages for them as well. As well as for for "make package", packages are stored in the /usr/ports/packages/ directory. -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Ports and package creation Automation
hello list, After searching google for 5 minutes I cant find what I am looking for. I know that pkg_create command will create packages for the other 3 boxes. if I am going to rebuild all of my ports from scratch, can I somehow tell FreeBSD to create a package all the time and store it in a directory? also what file do I modify to tell the other local machines where to find the packages? can this be a sftp url? it would be convenient cause sshd is installed in base. I want to install FreeBSD 8 BETA2 i386 on 4 computers, I want to install gnome and firefox, k3b, compiz,openoffice etc... all in all it is like a 975 port count.
