building a port with very long list of build options

Let's say I want to build a port for which I need to specify a huge number of build options (eg. ghostscript). In my case I am cross-compiling on an amd64 host for what will be a NanoBSD i386 target, but I don't think that's important here. The scenario precludes using the familiar configuratio

[UPDATE] host-setup(1): a dialog(1)-based utility for configuring FreeBSD

Hi List Members! I'm proud to announce the first update to my host-setup utility (a dialog(1)-based host configurator for FreeBSD). The following changes have been made: - fixed bug where /etc/resolv.conf would be created with 0600 permissions - fixed bug when switching from one default ga

Forcefully change a program's volume

Hi, I'm aware that in FreeBSD 8+ there is the VPC (Volume Per Channel) feature which allows separate programs to have separate sound volumes. But suppose there is a (bad) program that does not let me control its volume from within its interface. Is there a way for me to control it at the OS level

Hi, I'm looking for graphical tools easing configuration of a bind DNS-server. Ideally this tool should be capable of editing IPv6-related records like too. Is there anything available out there for FreeBSD (I already checked the ports collection, but couldn't find anything). Thanks much in

Hi, I have used this setup guide (http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/RAIDZ1) line by line with the 8.2-RELEASE DVD for amd64 to install a VirtualBox guest for testing. The only difference to the setup guide: I use a SAS controler, so devicename is da0, da1, da2 instead of ad0, etc. I
