Re: [nycbug-talk] Can I install FreeBSD 5.3 from a USB CD drive?
Maude User wrote: Thanks for this info. The handbook chapter on BIOS (see below) doesn't mention USB but it says the machine can boot from Removable Devices so it sounds like your first suggestion about booting from removable drives would work. Even if you boot from the USB CD, there is a chance that FreeBSD load won't recognize the USB chipset, so you won't be able to choose the source for the installation media. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Error: short read
I have downloaded the Helix Universal Server binary from RealNetworks. As I understand it, the binary is a self-extracting archive. I have run the binary and get the following error: blacklamb# ./rs900-freebsd4-ia32.bin Extracting files for RealNetworks installation... Error: short read (0/86262 bytes) (File too large) Probably the file is corrupted.

Re: BIND9 port
Unfortuantely it didn't tell me where it expects the namedb dir to be, it didn't put a startup script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d like other ports do.. Is this normal? Should I just create my own and wing it? Put the following in /etc/rc.conf # DNS server named_enable=YES named_program=/usr/sbin/named named_flags=-u bind -g bind There is no need for startup script.

Re: Virtual Private Servers
Does anyone have any information on setting up virtual private servers with Freebsd? There are a lot of people doing it out there but I can't seem to find any documentation supporting it.

Re: port forwarding
What is the easiest way of forwarding a port in FreeBSD. Suppose I want my server to listen on port 8280, but want all connection attempts to port 80 to be forwarded to this port ... can that be done?

Re: Low profile PCI NIC

Re: burncd on 4.7 + YAMAHA CRW2200E
I'm very disappointed, no burncd working, no more a hard disk... The hardware was Asus + Athlon. Unplug the cable from CDRW and try to boot. Double check jumpers and pin 1. Re-detect HDD from BIOS. It should work. If so, put CDRW on the second controller as master, but make sure the jumper is correctly set. Use master not C/S.
