I think it does not depend on your kernel configuration - checkout the portstree for the software you need: % cd /usr/ports % make search key=$MY_MULTIMEDIA_SOFTWARE Furthermore you should checkout the hardware/release notes for 7.0 and/or 7.1: http://www.freebsd.org/where.html my setup works fairly decent for desktop use, but seems kinda sluggish with even basic multimedia. IMO FreeBSD is not made for that kind of multimedia machine - it's not about the software, it's more about the drivers. FreeBSD has a focus on network and stability, not to support your brandnew 7:1 soundhardware or the latest ATI SLI graphics card for $500... I prefer FreeBSD over Linux as well, but I think you should go for a dual-boot installation. :) I've heard very good things about Ubuntu Studio and believe that the hardware support for your needs is better. p.s. on a different note while i'm here, how do you go from 7.1 prerelease to 7.1 release when it is out? when/how do you tell when you stop using stable-supfile and start using standard-supfile?

Yes, you must configure them to use different port numbers, because the SysV IPC IDs are derived from the port number. If you try to run both servers with the default port, you'll get a conflict. Configure different port numbers, and it will work. Thanks for that hint. After changing the port numbers for each instance to a different one, it works - but only at first glance. After making some test creates and inserts to all servers at the same time I receive the 'out of memory' messages again... Different UIDs, different ports, same error. By the way, the PostgreSQL developers do _not_ recommend to run multiple servers on the same machine, because of bad efficiency. It is much better (performance-wise) to run all databases within the same server engine. PostgreSQL has all the authentication and permission features you need to separate multiple databases within a single server, so there is really no need to use multiple jails. Of course I understand that. But I would like to setup a test server in a different jail beside my production jail/pgsql-server to be sure not to crash my production server. Performance does not matter (at this time in this specific case of course!). I have these on a machine with a single PostgreSQL server, as per recommendations of the developers: options SHMMAXPGS=65536 options SEMMAP=1024 options SEMMNI=64 options SEMMNS=1024 options SEMUME=64 options SEMMNU=128 Is this a good recommendation for a machine with only 1GB of RAM? -- Oliver PETER, eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED], ICQ# 113969174 Worker bees can leave.

I heard that PostgreSQL is more scalable than Mysql. But I am not an experienced database user, so, please forgive my little knowledge. Personally I prefer PostgreSQL. It works great for me.

Why do you want to switch back to to a filesystem based e-mail backend? I suppose storing emails in a database should be more scalable and flexible in the long run? Since I'm the only active user of my dbmail setup it's too oversized for this purpose. I think I can live with a small filesystem based postfix setup, too. Of course it will be more flexible in the long run but I have only a 1,2ghz machine as my main mailserver - simply it is too slow. If you would like I can show you my configuration files and table structures. Of course, I would like to see your configuration files. In fact, I am dying to see it. Hehe, no problem. You will get them tomorrow. Promised. I am planning my current setup to be used for a long term basis in a production environment for a very large user base. Me and my team are currently just designing and testing it out. It might take some time before we can put this server in production. Since I am very new to database terminology, how scalable is a database in terms of the data storage size. I mean suppose, we have 2 users each with a quota of 1 GB. What will eventually happen if they all used up their quotas. That will be about 20 TB in size!! w00t - as you can see I'm just a little sysadmin managing his very own small mailserver. I never thought about thousands of user - I never thought about to have more than 10 user. Hehe. Well, if you will have such a huge load Postgres would be the best choice for you.

I've used GELI encrypted partition on my notebook for 5 month but now I can't mount it on startup... it seems that I forgot the password (but how is it possible if I enter it each time I switch my notebook?!) or something is wrong with GELI anyway when I created that partition I also created backup key file as it was suggested by the manual... Now I've tried to mount the partition with that key but it keeps telling me that the password is wrong. %( Is it possible to recover the bloody thing with that backup key?! Your help would be much appreciated! You can provide us your dmesg debug output by adding the following lines to /boot/loader.conf: kern.geom.eli.debug=3 GELI(8) says: Debug level of the ELI GEOM class. This can be set to a number between 0 and 3 inclusive. If set to 0, minimal debug informa- tion is printed. If set to 3, the maximum amount of debug infor- mation is printed. For yourself you can add: kern.geom.eli.visible.passphrase=1 GELI(8) says: If set to 1, the passphrase entered on boot (before the root file system is mounted) will be visible. This possibility should be used with caution as the entered passphrase can be logged and exposed via dmesg(8). This variable should be set in /boot/loader.conf.

I'm using Postfix v.2.3.8 on a multihomed machine and have two smtpd's defined in master.cf. What I would like is that mail submitted through smtpd that is listening on A.B.C.D goes out through the smtp client that binds to A.B.C.D and the rest of the mail go through the other smtp client. The problem as I see it is that, once messages arrive in the queue, it becomes irrelevant where they came from and the only routing that is available is recipient-based. Thanks for any suggestions! Would it help to pimp your transport map? #In the case of delivery via SMTP, one may specify host- #name:service instead of just a host: # # example.com smtp:bar.example:2025 You can replace bar.example with the IP address of the other interface.

A command line trick would be perfect. mutt is your friend. Open the mbox file with # mutt -R -f /var/mail/root Then Tag all mails (press 'T' then enter '.') and bounce the tagged messages (press ';' and thenn 'b') to your personal email address.
