Hello,
I am looking for a way to use jail feature (when it will be back ported to
-STABLE) for providing virtual servers with root access (something like
www.servetheweb.com). Therefore I am investigating this feature more closely.
For now I have encountered following problems:
* ping, tracerout

I recently had a really good experience getting a single frequency monitor
working, so I thought I'd write up my experiences, and perhaps help
others. I guess you could consider this a usage report on the Silicon
Integrators Saturn GL video card, and the monitor of the week.
You know what I mean

That's because you are not a loser. Losers want plug-and-play. This
pkg_get is plug and play, pkg_add isn't. It doesn't, for instance,

Just to confirm...I've had similar problems, but *only* after moving to
INN-CURRENT, which makes *very* heavy use of MMAP() :(
What version of INN are you running?

I've got a similar problem, not with a particular monitor, but with
an application where the VGA console is connected to a cheapo VGA-to-NTSC
base-band video converter. These things usually come with a windows driver

hi *,
i'm thinking about writing a perl script that updates installed packages
automatically, if there's a newer version in the ports directory.
unfortunately, the package name, as in /var/db/pkg, in some cases does not
correspond to the ports directory name at all.
for example, the port in 'arc

they are, then I'll send-pr them).

That depends on your definition of "easy". I can use pkg_add faster,
