I have tried the available package update methods. It occurred to me to
experiment with a different way.
I am working on a package update script in Python as an alternate way to
update installed packages with latest available on the FreeBSD web site. It
parses the index page of the web site and
Hi everyone,
First off I am new to FreeBSD. I use Linux professorially and really looking
forward to getting some FreeBSD boxes in production as well. My apologies if my
questions are noobish and I have tried Googling for some of them but with
limited results so I figure I would ask for help

Anyways, host and jail need to run the exact same kernel. Normally I'll
build my kernel and install it into the base as well as each individual jail
so everything is consistent.
Why do they need to run the exact same

Hi
Why is it that the binary files are so long about being updated?
On OpenBSD and on most major GNU/Linux distros the binary packages are updated
very quickly. I am asking the question to understand the reason behind the

On one of the machines I have done a portupgrade jdk, and now have

I then did a pkg_create -b jdk-1.4.2p6_5 and have a
