Off topic=not about FreeBSD OS.
I'm amazed that you seem to think that making FreeBSD do what one wants
it to do isn't a FreeBSD topic.
exactly...
when is something part of FBSD and when not?
what is "base system"
all the ports aren't?
port system (script and Makefiles) are part of FreeBSD, but there is group
dedicated to it: freebsd-ports
port system allows to compile and install various unix tools on FreeBSD.
but this tools are completely third party thing.
so dhcpd is not part of FBSD either?
yes. it's name even states it clearly: isc-dhcpd :)
where does that philosophy ends then?
is sendmail part of FBSD...?
yes - it's included in FreeBSD base system.
maybe the whole userland isn't and FreeBSD is just a kernel?
no. it's not linux.
what you can build through "make buildworld" is FreeBSD.
