Hi all
I have installed the net/mDNSResponder port on a FreeBSD 7.2 i386

Hi guys,
I was running FreeBSD server at home for a few years on an old box for mail,
some web and ftp etc. I've been through a number of upgrades even though

Hi FreeBSD community
I have few questions regarding devd configuration:
1. What is the difference between attach or notify and when to use them?
