this weekend, im going to have to rebuild my 6.0 server in order to
recover from a faulty disk (i have to eliminate a RAID1 array, and break
rebuild the RAID5 with one more disk).
all my daemons and whatnot, im pretty good at recovering. sendmail,
apache, mysql, etc, shouldnt be a problem.

I have two disks; one is the fbsd system drive, the other is for backup
purposes.
I'm in doubt about what to use: dump or rsync
I guess I can do something like:
mount /dev/ad1s3a /backup/root
mount /dev/ad1s3d /backup/var
mount /dev/ad1s3f /backup/usr
/usr/local/bin/rsync -avHxS --delete /usr /b
With the right settings of --backup --backup-dir you can easily create a
week (or two or three or whatever) archive of the "daily" changed files.
So, for example..
/backup/usr - contains identical copy
/backup/dailys/usr/Mon - contains files that changed on /usr on Monday.
Then just set things

With the inclusion of mergemaster -u subsequent base system upgrades
are much less painful. Using null mounts for the common areas should
lessen the version sync issues. Once unionfs is stable again, you
could just use one jail as a base image and allow the others to be
cloned off of that.

how i can limit bandwidth when i using 'make fetch' (make install in Ports)?
I wrote a patch to fetch awhile back that does exactly this. That was
with 4.x, but it might apply cleanly in 6. I ended up not using it, well
cause once I had everything installed it didn't seem to matter so much.

Then when happy, you can commit your changes with SVN and they get

You don't need subversion to move files into your web tree. That's not
