Rod,
Take a look at what the shell replacement is actually doing. If you
were to write the line manually it would look like this:
sed -e 's/\/usr\X11R6\/bin\/xdm/\/usr\/local\/bin\/kdm/g' ...
Right?
But the shell doesn't escape the path separators (slashes). You need to
escape them yourself in t

Steve,
Thanks a bunch! This is a great help. I'm not clear on the use of
allow-transfer. Reading the manpage for named.conf(5), I'm tempted to
leave it out. But, I'm not fully understanding the use of it. The

This is valid advice. However, since you say your are new to FreeBSD

terminal (xterm) to do run these commands. Otherwise, excuse the

Someone else had responded to your post explaining that setuid does not
work with shell scripts. Nor does it work with any interpreted input.
The following article might help explain this (and others):

What would be the pros and cons of running this system single user?
Processes that run under their own uid, would they be able to run?
Just curious. Any e

John,
By the nature of your questions I'll respond that it would not be
unreasonable (nor uncommon) to do this:
tar czf /usr/local/archives/etc.tar.gz -C / etc usr/local/etc
where 'c' means create, 'z' means compress (using gzip), and 'f' is the
name of the archive file to write on. '-C' mea
Marc,
Try putting either '-h' or '-D' in /boot.config. I found '-D' worked
for me. Personally, I'm wondering if I can put together a serial
multiplexer to USB device and write a C or Perl script that will tee
the output to respective files that I can 'tail -f' on.
For a more thorough treatment
I recently built a system using a VIA EPIA PD1 motherboard with a
VIA C3 (1GHz) processor on it. I've successfully compiled the entire
system (buildworld and buildkernel) for 4.10-STABLE and a number of
ports. Everything appears to work fine. If you want to build your own
kernel, be aware t
