Re: compiling ports with more than one job

run in to the problem that ports are not guarranteed to by -jX safe, some will work, some won't, and there's no way of knowing without trying it.

on't have any vr or rl cards, but see if you can increase the MTU on them. See the ifconfig manpage for details on how to do so. Obviously you'd want to set it to at least 1532. :) -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.

#x27;ve been running 6.1-R AMD64 on a PE 1950 very successfully as a web/mysql/mail/dns server. If you have the broadcom or intel NICs you're going to want to use the drivers from 6-STABLE or 6.2-RC2. Other than that it's been relatively painless. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

ameserver, or perhaps even how many of those queries the nameserver actually responds to, but the applications at the client end are just going to keep retrying til they get an answer, so I would think that restricting answers is just going to generate more traffic in the end. -- Thanks, Josh Paetzel
