Setting up FreeBSD i386 in a jail seems to do the job for most people. You can
have a whole i386 system in a jail and it won't even recognize it's running on
an amd64 kernel.

As the title says, I'm using an ipw wireless card and

doesn't list APs on the channels 12 and 13. I suppose this is due to the
different frequency regulations in the US. Is there a way to configure the ipw

Since the move to the new servers my followups disappear in an unknown black

understand that unexpected things happen, but this is basic infrastructure that
doesn't work for some time, now.

I have several systems which all use the same /usr/obj over NFS.
In the make.conf of those systems WRKDIRPREFIX is set to /usr/obj/${HOST},
which keeps machines from messing with each other while they build ports.
Those machines have their own kernel configurations, which reside in
