The "port list" page doesn't agree with the list supplied by compdoc's response, which appeared to be from a running and current pfSense. E.G., nut (the one that's a "must" for us) isn't listed Since this is an item that's critical to many pfSense users, I have submitted a feature request (https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/6500). ___ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold

I installed bind recently (in a pfSense test-vm). I haven’t tried it, but I assume if it’s packaged, it works. I dare say the current state of the documentation of the project is sub-optimal. ___ pfSense mailing list https://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list Support the project with Gold! https://pfsense.org/gold
Re: [pfSense] How to determine supported packages without installing
I suspect package compatibility is not maintained on per-pfSense-version basis. Meaning, packages worked on 2.x up until the package changes on 2.3, and probably will work on into the future until the next breaking change. https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Upgrade_Guide#pfSense_2.3_Upgrade_Guide has text: See Package Port List for a list of packages currently available on 2.3.
