port

gsh is a command line program for running commands on multiple remote hosts in parallel. The port has few dependencies and operates in a manner similar to dsh (distributed shell). The upstream project is here: https://github.com/kees/gsh And my port of gsh can be found here, in case anyone...

I have created a port for the Squashfuse command line program. It allows the user to mount a squash archive under a local directory and explore it. Existing FreeBSD ports allow for the extraction (unpacking) of a squashfs archive, but if we only want to browse the contents of a squash archive...

Last year the OpenBSD developers created an alternative to "sudo" called "doas". The doas program has a simpler configuration file and is quite small, keeping the code tiny and, one hopes, secure. I have ported the OpenBSD 5.9 version of doas over to FreeBSD 10.3 (with a lot of help from the...

Port emulators/playonbsd depends on emulators/i386-wine-devel and emulators/pipelight depends on emulators/i386-wine-staging. So when I want to install pipelight pkg asks me to uninstall playonbsd. Does it mean playonbsd is incompatible with pipelight? Are two versions of wine really necessary...

I just decided to pull the latest IORTCW code(Return To Castle Wolfenstein) and try my hand at getting it running. To my surprise it compiles and runs natively on FreeBSD and would like to request that if someone is looking to port something that they please consider the idea of creating an...

Hi there, I just created a little vm and installed the latest lua53 from pkgng. I am unable to use a c Shared Object with my lua app and I get the following error: dynamic libraries not enabled; check your Lua installation My understanding of this (I believe I corrected it once before)...

Is there a way to cause portmaster -a to display it's logic for adding ports? Specifically, I have a system with perl5-5.20.3_8 already installed, but running portmaster -a stipulates that lang/perl5.22 should be installed. This, of course, fails due to conflict. Presumably another port I'm...

Hi guys, I have a really weird problem. A FreeBSD 10.2 machine running an OpenVPN service on TCP port 1194 listening on the LAN IP address of the machine 192.168.1.5 This machine is also guarded by a firewall, which I extensively use for routing to and from the jails, which works pretty well...

Hiya, I've just installed sysutils/ezjail, built my first jail, and can telnet out of it - so the network appears to work. However, I can't install ports - they fail to download via FTP - and FTP connections don't work: # ftp ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/ Trying 96.47.72.72:21 ... ftp: Can't connect...
