After some advocacy effort, I convinced a friend to try FreeBSD and I handed him some old 3.4 CDs I had. He attempted to install it on a 600M HD with the surprise that the auto settings in sysinstall didn't leave him sufficient space on the /usr partition. He was somewhat surprised as the CD

I'm at my Witt's End trying to fix an unterminated quoted string problem in a shell script. Do any of you have any debugging tools tucked away that might help with this? (sh -[xv] have already been tried.) Something that printed a parse tree of the script would do the trick, but I can't find

I hope I'm completely misunderstanding the docs for exports(5) and kin, but here goes: The short form: I have two filesystems I want to export. They're both listed in /etc/exports. The first will be exported just fine, the second yields complaints from mountd about the device being busy.

RedHat systems have only two statically linked binaries in their systems and it is one of the things that I viscerally hate about RedHat. You have to look on another system or lookup on the net which shell to use instead of /sbin/init and then play around with a massively minimal set of things
