Guys,
First: thanks for the constructive input!
opendd already has the code for this, so you should just need an
@newuser entry in PLIST (pick the next id along from a freshly updated
/usr/ports/infrastructure/db/user.list) and change the sample
config file to use it.
OK, did that and picked the 648 for user/group _opendd.
that's the CA certificate used to verify the dyndns *server's*
certificate, I don't think that's a problem. I think it should be
@sample'd alongside opendd.conf though.
I've chosen not to install it by default but point to it in MESSAGE.
* Get it to listen to CC and CFLAGS.
there's hardcoded /etc in the source, README and sample config which
should be patched to use ${SYSCONFDIR} instead, and then do something
like 'cd ${WRKSRC}; ${SUBST_CMD} globals.h README opendd.conf' in
the pre-configure target. Just change the /etc/opendd* ones, the
/etc/ppp/ppp.linkup in README should stay as it is.
The hardcoded paths in globals.h and opendd.conf have been patched
(pre-configure). I don't think README should be patched, this will make
the Makefile look like mess and doesn't give a huge benefit. The
configuration file itself is quite well documented, and the README
contains mostly hints on how to compile and install the program which
the port solves anyway.
I'm also about to write an manpage for this thing. Since I've never done
that before and it will go upstream, this could take a good while. Might
be a good candidate for version 0.8.0, but that's up to the author.
