Re: Openresolv Config
Hi Matthew,
Thank you so much for your quick reply.
How Can I override using openresolv/resolvconf or configuring it for static
IP on a server ?
Currently my servers are configured with DHCP by the webhost company.
I prefer to have them configured with static IP but right now I'm stuck on
the openresolv problem.
Do you know where can I find a openresolv howto for FreeBSD-9 please.
Best Regards

I'm not sure that Openresolv is necessarily the right thing to use.
This is how you would override the resolvers handed out to you by a DHCP
server using dhclient. Edit the file /etc/dhclient.conf and add lines
like so:
interface em0 {
supersede domain-name-serves 192.0.2.1, 192.0.2.2;
}
Obviously, substitute the correct interface name and the IP numbers of
your own DNS servers. There's also 'prepend' instead of 'supersede,'
which allows you to stick your nameservers in as the preferred choice,
but still keep the original ones as a fallback. See dhclient.conf(5).
This assumes you've only got the one ethernet interface being configured
by DHCP, and that you always want to use your own nameservers
irrespective of what network you're connecting to.
Cheers,
Matthew

Thanks a lot for the useful explanation you provided.
I really appreciated it.
I'm gonna try MariaDB.

It seems that the percona55-client and percona55-server ports are still
a work in progress. They aren't properly hooked up to the ports tree
yet, and there need to be some modifications to
${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.database.mk before it is going to work.
See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/164072 for the
story so far.
Unfortunately all I can suggest at the moment is to use mysql55-server
or mariadb-server[*] temporarily until the percona ports get sorted out.
Cheers,
Matthew
[*] Which is equivalent to the unreleased mysql53 rather than mysql55.

Replacing FreeBSD Base System's BIND
Hi, After installing FreeBSD 8.2, I noticed it's using BIND 9.6 but in ports collection there is newer versions 9.7 and 9.8. I'd like to know if there is any advantages in upgrading BIND to 9.8 instead of using the base install version. I'd really appreciate if you can give me some hints of the best way to do it for future needs while retaining all the advantages of the base install configuration.

Re: Replacing FreeBSD Base System's BIND
Hi Matthew, thanks a lot for your detailed reply, as I will be using BIND for standard task. regular SOA for domain names no domain keys or DNSSEC. I think I'll stick with the version that comes pre-installed.

If you are serving domains to the public in something more than a trivial way, then yes, using the latest ports version is recommended. Otherwise, there's little to choose one way versus the other. Using the base system bind is less effort, and you'll get automatic patching of any significant problems assuming you're keeping the system up to date by any of the recognised methods. Also, if you do choose to use the ports version, to keep things simple, I'd recommend not *replacing* the base system bind. This means you'll still be able to use services like freebsd-update(8) without any hassle. Simply install the ports version dns/bind98 under /usr/local, and then something like this in your /etc/rc.conf will switch to using that version. Note -- still uses the standard /etc/rc.d/named startup script. named_enable=YES named_program=/usr/local/sbin/named You'll tend to get the base system version of applications like dig(1) with this unless you tweak $PATH or some such. However, there's very little difference between the client-side apps in recent bind versions, and if you do happen to run into an area where there are significant changes, all you need to do is run /usr/local/bin/dig instead.
