Hmm... replying to myself here, but using iperf I see 420Mbit/s+ from
FreeBSD to Windows with TCP. Vice versa, 640mbit/s approx.
Not so with file transfers across ftp, http, and smb though. Which is odd.

At last...my e-mail is up and running again.
I have a question which Linux users can answer and wondering
if freebsd can come up with a simpler implementation.
Groovix (the company) devised a Linux system that multiple users can connect
to at one time. Thus...4 screens, 4 keyboards, 4 mice ect...

If you are just looking to be able to resolve DNS internally, you can very
easily setup your FBSD box to be a forwarding DNS server, and point all
your other machines at it for DNS resolution. There are many howtos
covering this subject.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to determine the good commands to initialise a disk.
I would like to get the same result than with the sysinstall fdisk.
But If I use the handbook's command:

# fdisk -BI ad2
# disklabel -B -w -r ${disk}s1 auto

Does anyone have recommendations for motherboards (P3 or P4) with good
BIOS serial console support that plays nicely with FreeBSD running a
serial console on the same port? Basically, I'd like to monitor the
pre-BSD boot process and the BSD boot process from a terminal window on
another machine.

We figured out that if the primary LDAP server is online but the slapd
process is down, the client (in this case NSS/PAM) immediately gets a

How would I code a statement to remove everything from $ret_ob
