I'm looking at trying to build my own customized FreeBSD install CD. The
purpose of this is to be able to install FreeBSD with customized kernel,
certain packages installed and some added scripts of my own. Being that I
have no idea how to do this I have two questions.
1. Is this feasible?
2. I
Currently running FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #0 on a development server and
attempted to update source via cvsup to 6.1-STABLE. Went through the same
procedures that I have always used in the past and the server stated to
still be running 6.0-stable. The following are the procedures that I use.
I deleted
I was updating the ports on one of my servers and received this error:
[Updating the pkgdb in /var/db/pkg ... - 68 packages

What actions, if any do
Using FreeBSD 5.4-Stable #0. Trying to update my ports using portsnap,
pkg_version, and portupgrade. All goes well until I get to portupgrade

running FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE #0. I'm using the RELENG_6
tag, and it was to my understanding that this only followed 6-stable.
Is a prerelease considered stable, or am I doing something wrong?

Ok, I know this has come up before but I cannot find any good
documentation on BSD vs Linux threads using 5.4 or 6.0. This will
basically be for a multi-processor mysql 5 server. What are your
recommendations?
Thanks,

I'm having some major issues with perl site I'm trying to get working.
I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 stable using Apache 2.0.55 and perl 5.8.7. The
error I'm getting is:
Can't locate object method "connect_on_init" via package "Apache::DBI"
(perhaps you forgot to load "Apache::DBI"?)
I do have

I'm still pretty new to the BSD world and wanted to throw out a question
to see what kind of responses I get. What is everyones take on what to
do when security vulnerabities are discovered. Do you upgrade your
source (not always the easiest thing to do) or patch. What are the pros
and cons of p
leery. It seemed to be too easy. Anyone ever restored
like this, and if so had any issues I can look out for?

Ok, I'm having some problemsdue to the fact that I'm pretty new and
have no idea on how to do this. We had a server crash, hardware
related, and I want to take my dump backups and restore them on another
system. The dump files are located on a remote ftp server. So
basically what I'm trying
Thanks for all the help. I've added the -X option to tar and have a
file containing all directories and files I don't wish to backup.

I'm pretty new to the BSD and NIX world, and have never had to perform a
system recovery or restore.
I did a full backup of a server with tar using the following command:
tar cpzf servername`date +%m%d%y`.tgz /
I'm trying to restore it on another server with the following command:
tar -xzpf /pa
I just signed up and started using http://bsdupdates.com on a
development server to see how it worked. Haven't had any issues yet,
but wanted to know if anyone else out there is using it and your
opinions.
Thanks,
Cody

I'm trying to do a multi-volume backup to hard drive via gnu tar. It
works with the following command:
gtar -c -L 681574400 -f /usr/local/backup/dev1.tgz -f
/usr/local/backup/dev2.tgz -f /usr/local/backup/dev3.tgz /
But I really, really need this compressed. If I put a -z in the command
it error
Ok, I'm trying to do a simple tar+gzip backup for my file system. I can
do this no problem. The backup is a little less than 2Gb. What I would
like to do is chop this up into 650Mb pieces that I can ftp over to a
server with a cd-r and burn them. Does anyone know a good utility that
can do this
I'm running FreeBSD 5.4 with my ports pretty much up-to-date. I have a
graphing software that required rrdtool 1.0.x and I'm running 1.2.x.
How do I install an older version of this via ports or packages?

How would I go about adding a pluggin to php4-extension. I've already
installed in, but need to add support for pcntl. Do I need to remove
extensions all together and reinstall them from scratch, or is there an
easier way??

I'm having cvsup update issues right now. When I try to update I get:
Cannot connect to cvsupxx.us.freebsd.org: Connection refused
Will retry at xx:xx:xx
No matter which server I try.
Also when I try to run fastest_cvsup -c us I get timeouts on
everyserver. Any ideas?

I keep getting the following kernel log messages in my daily security
run output.
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx kernel log messages:

After running cvsup, I then ran portdb -Uu and received the following
error.

I've been using cvsup to upgrade the ports on my Freebsd box, and it
works great. My question is how often should you cvsup the src and do a
buildworld?
