Hello.
Sorry for the stupid questions, but Google only turns out very old
answers which might be outdated (at least I hope so).
What is the maximum partition size I can use on 7.3?
I've used a 3TB gstripe on amd64, but now I'd like to gstripe two 2TB

Also there is an option (not chosen by default) in the perl port to

Hello,
I have a server that freezes under high load sometimes. It is on
FreeBSD 7.3. It does not respond neither by network nor to keyboard.

Thanks in adv

Hello,
I'm seeing a strange problem trying to use zfs promote.

Thanks again for all the great tips on OpenVPN setup. I think its about ready
for real deployment but I have a couple of more questions.
My OpenVPN server (10.0.0.254) is inside my LAN behind another FreeBSD
router/gateway (10.0.0.253) which is running IPFW+NATD and handles the LAN's
