BSD derivatives
I am primarily concerned about security from internet hacking, and am therefore considering setting up a separate internet computer with BSD. What is your association with Open BSD? with Linux? Are there copyright or other related issues involved? It appears that FreeBSD is the most closely associated with the original Berkeley programmers. I was told that OpenBSD provided the best security. But I also note that changes have occurred at OBSD, and wonder if this is still true.

Giving more CPU time to a swapping process?
Hi, I have a python program in freebsd, doing a heavey indexing job involving a mega size array. The process is so memory-hungry that it starts swap after the physical RAM max out. (To be exact, I've lowered the per-process limitation to make this possible). However, when I use top to monitor the status, the STATE of the process started to stay as swread for most of the time (instead of RUN before using swap) and its priority has dropped to -20; and the corresponding WCPU drops to around 1% only. And the CPU consumption time in total (for the whole job) would only increase a minute or two even the process has been running for more than a few hours. In Windows XP, which has less per-task resource restriction (I guess?), I did successfully complete the task on the same hardware machine; although it takes more than 30 mins. How can I push up the priority of the whole paging task? How can I allocate more CPU attention to this process? I've tried using nice but it does not help. Please refer to the below top's snapshots at different times. (A) is earlier than (B), and so on.

Re: Problem connecting a freebsd server using ssh
You've put your FreeBSD_B in data center? Perhaps the network architecture causes the difficulty of ssh. Are these machines in the same subnet? Any special configure in the network switchs and routers? 2006/2/24, Lei Sun [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Actually, both of them are releng_6-p4, and I had no problem connecting in both directions before Freebsd_B is put into the data center.

Re: Fail to install subversion-1.3.0.r2 while compile with WITH_MOD_DAV_SVN=yes
Yeah. It is compiled OK with the `-D' before the switch. But another problem is that I cannot find the mod_dav_svn.so in ths system after the compling. It is needed to use HTTP protocol in subversion. And, when I install apache2 and subversion (after sucessful comple), it prompted a lot of warnings show that some files are not installed in to /usr/local/lib. Anyone have the same thing?

Re: Fail to install subversion-1.3.0.r2 while compile with WITH_MOD_DAV_SVN=yes
I'm not sure why. But now, I built it without ports. Just entered the `work' directory and read the INSTALL file. After compile, I found the mod_dav_svn.so and mod_authz_svn.so in the directory and copied them manually into /usr/local/libexec/apache2/. It works now. But I don't know how to automatic build it using ports. 2005/11/14, Ma Jie [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Yeah. It is compiled OK with the `-D' before the switch.

Re: Fail to install subversion-1.3.0.r2 while compile with WITH_MOD_DAV_SVN=yes
As shown in Jason's reply, I don't think use -D is a right thing when make in ports. It doesn't make effect when use -D before WITH_MOD_DAV_SVN at all. 2005/11/14, Philip Lykke Carlsen [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Monday 14 November 2005 02:19 skrev Ma Jie: I'm using FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE.
