I have turned on cvs commit activities check on cvs.delphij.net. This will help us to have more accurate work statistion. This was done by writing a script named “awake” and some tweaks in CVSROOT/log_accum.pl

TERAMOTO Masahiro kindly gave maintainership of security/clamav to Rob Evers, the maintainer of the clamav-devel port.

Some search engines has grabbed some of my links out (Primarily, MP3). So I put some limits there. This is because I don’t want FreeBSDChina to be a MP3 downloading site - It’s harmful for the server, and we don’t want it.

The code is the following, it’s simple and effective:

I’m still working on deploying the new beastie.frontfree.net (builder.frontfree.net at present). Because a bug(?) in FreeBSD kernel I have temporary disabled HTT on the box.

I personally manages several FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT instances, and here are my experiences.

FreeBSD 5.x contained many new features, technologies. Currently, it’s clear that 5.2-CURRENT is more stable and have a better performance than 5.2(.1)-RELEASE. Therefore, if you are looking to install a new (of course, and ONLY if you choose 5.x series!) computer, the best solution would be 5-CURRENT.

The answer is not so trivial. You must migrate everything, from MT’s configuration to its databases, etc. In addition, proper permission must be set in order to get it run.

I have decided to migrate my blog site to FreeBSDChina.org’s host for a temporary store. This is expected to be changed soon.

Today, NetBSD has announced their start of 2.0-RELEASE works. NetBSD is an excellent operating system that supports many platforms, if not most.

Sorry for my ignorance, but it seems that NetBSD has imported postfix to their source tree for at least a year!
