There is a legacy piece of custom software that runs only on 32 bit systems, so going to 64 bit is not possible. On Apr 14, 2011, at 12:08 PM, krad wrote: > > > On 14 April 2011 08:05, Dennis Nikiforov wrote: > Hello, > >I have a problem with FreeBSD 7.x 32bit running the standard PA

Well, the idea was to run many instances of the app (each process does not need more than a couple of gigs of ram). Using virtualization is another option, but it will require a lot more maintenance of every VM. It would be a lot better if a single OS can use PAE. On Apr 14, 2011, at 3:47 PM, k

I already run 10 domains worth of emails here, I would prefer to avoid adding anything that will screw with already functioning accounts... But maybe there's an option on Dovecot to reroute specific username requests to masquerade that... I'll check that out tomorrow. Thanks. On Apr 14, 2011,
