-Auto-download Freesbie Net-intaller on PC Bootup- then install peercast and ANYONE can easily stream Theora. FREE SPEACH, finally! Sounds like a good idea, no? I'd like to have a tiny OS on a USB flash memory drive that boots up with a network interface, collects information about available Freesbie versions using a completely distributed peer-to-peer network a la bittorrent, and then lets

Hello! I have an old Dell Latitude C800 laptop (with Pentium3 CPU in it). FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE was running fine on it, but I decided to update the machine to 9.1-STABLE. Well, neither my own custom kernel, nor even the official 9.1-RELEASE CD1 would boot... In both cases the boot process runs up to detecting uhub0, then either hangs forever or shuts off after a short while. Again, I thought I

I upgraded my 7.0 system to 7.1-RELEASE with freebsd-update only to find that it no longer boots correctly, instead crashing with a BTX backtrace. If I break to the loader prompt and use 'ls /boot', I also get a backtrace. A new install of 7.1 on this hardware using a separate SCSI card and drive array also leads to a BTX backtrace. I have copied this below as the first (most

The blowfish crypt(3) mechanism supports the use of a "cost value" for password encryption. The cost value is encoded into the encrypted password that is stored in master.passwd. On OpenBSD, this cost value can be set in login.conf. FreeBSD does not currently support the cost value. The cost value is the base-2 logarithm of the number of rounds of encryption to use so

Hi, I'd like to build a toolkit CD specifically for conducting forensics on FreeBSD. I'm not talking about a bootable CD but rather one that I could pop into a CD ROM drive and run trusted commands like ps, netstat, ls, etc., from. I'd like to build a CD that would work on -RELEASE versions of FreeBSD like 5.1 and -STABLE versions of FreeBSD too. Can anyone give me any pointers

Hi all, I'm trying to find out if UDF support can be added to 4-STABLE. The web page http://people.freebsd.org/~scottl/udf/ says that such a thing can be found at http://www.softweyr.com/asmodai/projects/udf, but the latter URL is broken. Any pointers will be greatly appreciated. Warren

Hi all, Can anybody point me at the UDF code for FreeBSD 4-STABLE? There's a link at http://people.freebsd.org/~scottl/udf/ to some code, but the website (http://www.softweyr.com/asmodai/projects/udf) doesn't have the code any more. Many thanks in advance! Warren

I often boot DOS using MEMDISK and 33MB HD images for remote flashing. After my flash I need to activate the NIC and send a signal. Currently I use different packet drivers for different NICs, but this link below looks like a universal solution: http://www.emboot.com/products_UniversalPacketDriver.htm Does any thing else like this exist that is open source or freely available and freely

Dear Rails, I would like to pose a question to Mike Hanson (June 20th thread)...

Can you help me understand how these two differ. I am having a difficult time speaking to candidates about their experience with

A new serive is available from FreeBSD.ORG: GNATS updates and bug-reports via the CTM email software update tool. These are *not* bug fixes. These are the bug reports submitted to FreeBSD by its user community. GNATS is a bug-tracking tool designed for use at a central support site. Software users who experience problems report those problems through electronic mail to the the maintainers of
