Hello, I regularly update my 2 FreeBSD servers using freebsd-update fetch install and portmaster -a. Both running as VM on VMWare ESXi v6.5. After last update both servers are responding extremely slow, especially ssh logins and using su to get root, and SHA256 checksums when upgrading ports...

I just got FreeBSD running on a raspberry pi. I tried a few different ISO files before finding one I could successfully boot. The one that worked for me was FreeBSD-11.0-RC3-arm-armv6-RPI2.img. After install I realised there is not only 11.0-RC3 available, but also 11.0-RELEASE. I'm brand new...

I followed the update instructions here to update from 10.1 to 10.3. My only way of accessing this server is via ssh, and I have now been locked out (the ssh address is no longer known by my PC). Are there any steps to take / configurations to check to prevent this from happening again? I cannot...

Sorry for creating a new thread but I thought it would be better to start a new one either to respawn the old one. But I didn't understand from an old discussion if it was a bug of ezjail-admin or it was a normal behaviour. But how to update jails in that case? And how do I understand update is...

I am upgrading 10.2 to 10.3. freebsd-update -r 10.3-RELEASE upgrade said that the following files have changed /.cshrc /.profile /root/.cshrc /root/.profile and it won't be installing them. But actually didn't show any merge. Where the update or mergemaster store the new config files unpacked...

Hey people, I was looking for some info about whats the best way to keep jails updated and found many posts saying to never run freebsd-update inside of the jails. Someone could explain why not? Actually I am doing a make world, but this take so many time. My jails have the empty folders...

Right now I have set up my home "play box" machine (vsftpd listening on Internet, Samba listening on LAN, BitTorrent client) to apply updates in the core system and ports in an unattended manner. This means automatically. Then I grep the log and if a patch is available, I reboot the system (I...

I'm keeping getting weird messages when I try to update my email managed jails: I'm on FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE-p11 and ezjail v3.4.2 The jails show the right version inside but the update progress doesn't seem to have finished. This is what I'm getting: ezjail-admin update -u Looking up...

I have tried ports-mgmt/poudriere because some unexpected issue related to python and curses has crept into my ports system after using ports-mgmt/portmaster quite a long time without having it noted early. I hope I have strictly followed /usr/ports/UPDATING all the time :D. Now I have a few...

Hi, I'd like to know if you have a good way of keeping a system completely up to date in a completely automated way. If my understanding is correct, I can add 42 8 * * * freebsd-update cron in root's crontab to have the base system (I guess that means the kernel and the programs in /bin)...
