Is anyone using ZoneMinder, www.zoneminder.com
on OpenBSD?


fyi, It appears the answer is no, so here lies a trail
blazing opportunity.... :(

I received a few emails offline from others with interest,
and an associate is going to lend some cameras to test with,
so I may pursue this for awhile and join the zoneminder
forums.

I found some activity for zonemainder freebsd:
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7862
and the beginnings of an unofficial freebsd port:
http://catsspat.dyndns.org:2080/zoneminder/
http://catsspat.dyndns.org:2080/zoneminder/zoneminder-freebsd-port-1.22.3p4.tgz


an interesting note in the unofficial freebsd port was

"
 files/patch-SharedMem.pm

What this patch does is to hard-wire native size to 4 (32-bits).
On FreeBSD, Perl is configured with -Duse64bitint by default and the
method that is used by SharedMem.pm to determine architectural bit
width incorrectly considers an i386 machine as 64-bit capable.  I'm
not a perl expert -- in fact, I hate perl -- and I really have no
idea how to properly determine pointer size in Perl, so this patch
exists.  Obviously, if you are running FreeBSD-AMD64 (or Alpha or
something, although I have no idea if this software would work on
that architecture), you will want to get rid of this patch file.
Just delete it _before_ you make.
