In release 8.0 is GBDE now part of the base system?
If not what is the /boot/loader.conf command to add to enable it?

You don't have to enable it. Nothing to add to the loader.conf.
But if you want to mount the partitions during the boot:

Hello
I've been reading up on securing sshd after being bombarded with attempted
logins.
The steps i've taken so far to make things more secure are:
* changed the encryption method for passwords in /etc/login.conf from md5 to
blowfish and changed all the passwords to ridiculously obscure

Hi!
First step to ssh security is: Don't panic! Take your time to read the
logs and understand what's going on. So, you've got bombarded with login
attempts, but they
I'm currently running 8.0-RELEASE and am considering experimenting with

pear-shaped so I'll copy the entire system onto a spare slice and then
use csup to upgrade the copy to STABLE. Normally I'd go through the

I think on reflection I might have been a little over the top with blocking
password logins and I think the point about carrying a key on a usb stick, etc,
is a very good one. The reason I went with that decision is because I only
expect to be logging in to the server from two locations: at

In that case, the best thing you can do is figure out the IP ranges of
either location.
Hi -
I just got a board with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 cpu. I was wondering -
1) Is the amd64 8.0 release the fbsd of choice here?
and
2) Does it take advantage of the athlon's dual cores?
Thanks,
IHN,

Yes. 8.0R is the way to go. However, you might want to bring it upto
date after installing it as there are a number of bug fixes
I totally disagree with using the 32bit unless you have a specific
need or potentially if you are running it as a desktop. 64 everytime
for servers for loads of reasons. If you are running less than 4 gig

Take your time to think about if this is indeed the right solution.

How valuable is your data?
I recommend you make an offline backup. There's a lot of steps in your

You can get iSCSI with the net/istgt port, which should perform better than
