PXE and rc.conf
I have created a Jumpstart server using the guide located at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/pxe/index.html I am trying to set configure settings in rc.conf using a post-install script that is installed using a custom created package. However, it seems that when the machine reboots after sysinstall is run my custom rc.conf is replaced by one generated by sysinstall. One workaround I have for this is to create a rc.conf.local which does seem to work. However, there is still a sysinstall generated rc.conf with different values which leads to confusion. Is there a way to prevent sysinstall from writing over my new rc.conf or a way to not make it generate that file at all? I would rather have a file named rc.conf than rc.conf.local for simplicity's sake. -CM ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: how can i find out which modules are loaded in apache
httpd -l will only show you the compiled in modules. If you built your other modules as DSOs then you will not see them listed. The easiest way to see what modules you are using is the LoadModule directive in httpd.conf. To see what options apache was compiled with, if you still have the source lying around you can look at config.cache and that should show you what options apache was built with. If you rebuild your apache, it will not overwrite your current httpd.conf if it detects one.

Creating a custom package
I have recently setup a FreeBSD jumpstart server to install using PXE. I would like to add some additional third-party applications as part of the install. The last page of the FreeBSD jumpstart guide describes how to make a custom package but it looks like it has to be built from the ports tree. The applications that I am trying to install are heavily customized and built from source. Would it be best to create a package of the compiled sources? Can a package be built if it is not a port? Do I need to create a custom port first AND THEN create a package? or.. Should I create a small package with pre and post install scripts that install the compiled source files via NFS as well as configure any system settings? My aim is to Jumpstart my server and have it running 100% operational by the end of the install process with no human interaction.
