hi folks, i want to change a specified byte in a hex file. i want to edit my file and change byte 0x28a content from 0x08 to 0x14. i try to do it with hex-editor in windows but this file is too big and i can't transfer it to the other system. i think it should be done by some commands such as "dd

Hi all - I may be building a system which does not have any onboard sounds thus need to find either a pci-e or usb solution which will work with FreeBSD. I've combed newegg and have to say I never realized how crappy the sound cards have become - that used to be a big thing back in the day! Could

Hi - I am trying to replace an aging workstation on its last legs and have been waiting on the release of the new Intel hardware. They did so this weekend and I am leaning towards the E3-1245V3 over the vanilla i7s because of the extended page support for virutualization. So.. before I get kne

You mean like a high end rack mount server that's FreeBSD's primary use? One catch about ram, the faster ram comes in smaller sticks. I have four 8Gb sticks for 32Gb, but it's not the fastest ram. The fastest ram tends to be 2Gb sticks. At the moment, FreeBSD's set to a max of 64 cores on a

Max top end computer for Freebsd to run on

I'm a sub second speed freak. What is the max number of cpu's and memory size that Freebsd can handle? Can it handle 16 4ghz cpu's and 32gb of memory? I need a gaming server with some really big balls for hundreds of jails. Money is not a deciding factor here, horse power is. __

I had to use tap0 instead of tun0 to get a connexion. I first create it with "ifconfig tap0 create" and then make the connexion with "openvpn --config .ovpn --dev tap0". This works for me. 2013/6/1 Teske, Devin > > On May 29, 2013, at 8:52 AM, Pol Hallen wrote: > > >> It's a while since I looke
