gmc<a href="https://mamot.fr/users/dvd" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@dvd</a> Thanks, but finding and configuring a reader is the easy part :) It's setting up my own news server where I'm currently struggling a bit. And I know, I don't need my own server to be able to read news, but I just want to. I'm like that :)I'll figure it out eventually, I haven't really tried in earnest yet. Looking at cnews + nntpd on <a href="https://friends.chasmcity.net/search?tag=FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a>.

patproYesterday afternoon I've given <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@cryptpad" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@cryptpad</a> a try. Even though I don't really have a use for it, I wanted to test the installation on <a href="https://social.patpro.net/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freebsd</a>. It took only few minutes to create the jail, checkout the code, make the install and tune the configuration file. Using <a href="https://social.patpro.net/tags/caddy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#caddy</a> as a proxy was really straightforward thanks to config examples, and they even provide an rc script for freebsd. It's been a really long time since I've seen such a smooth and well documented install process for a non-packaged software. And I'm so happy they only provide docker as an option, not as the main (or only) supported installation method. The senior <a href="https://social.patpro.net/tags/sysadmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sysadmin</a> in me is absolutely thrilled by the work of the <a href="https://social.patpro.net/tags/cryptpad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cryptpad</a> team. As a user I think the application is well designed and achieves the very difficult balance between secure design and usability. Great job.

Daniel Wayne ArmstrongI went looking for a weekly round-up of (Free)BSD news and articles and found "BSD Weekly" by Jan Hovancik and "Valuable News" (and lots of tutorials) by <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@vermaden" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@vermaden</a> ...

Justine SmithiesGave up on <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=openbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenBSD</a> for now as it's too locked down for my liking and I was really wanting to setup <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=xorg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xorg</a> on the freebie Dell Optiplex 3080 Tower and use <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=xterm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xterm</a> as my terminal with <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=sixel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sixel</a> support. So I've installed <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> and got Xterm running with Sixel support ( graphics in the terminal ). Who's a happy chic that's feeling all nostalgic right now ?

subnetspiderToday I migrated my private Gitea server from the <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> VM running on Proxmox VE to a jail running on my FreeBSD NAS, all I had to do was copy /var/db/gitea and /usr/local/etc/gitea/conf/app.ini to the jail, install the gitea pkg and start the service.This is now the 15th jail running on this NAS, and one VM less on my Proxmox VE. 😁I've also upgraded the router in front of my firewalls (it only does PPPoE + NAT44 + DHCPv6 prefix delegation), the old one with its 256MB of RAM started rebooting randomly, the new one has 1GB of RAM and is already using 33% of it. I just realised how underpowered the old one was. 😅

Dendrobatus AzureusCan someone be kind to point me to documentation in freeBSD so I can change the font size of the console font at will?

Armin HanischHello experts of <a href="https://bildung.social/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> <a href="https://bildung.social/tags/GhostBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostBSD</a>, question from a total ZFS newbie. I'd like to install FreeBSD and GhostBSD in parallel on my Thinkpad. Yes, only one SSD, so no playing around with all the cool features, but learning. Which partition layout do you recommend? Or do I miss the "elegant“ way to have both BSDs completely? Thanks in advance for enlightening me.

Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:Looks like <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> mac_portacl has no jail integration. :flan_piteous:

TionislaUpgraded my <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/GhostBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostBSD</a> installation now. Plasma at 6.3.4, kframework now at 6.13, qt at 6.8.3, kernel 14.2-p2 etc.All is well...

Justine SmithiesStill running <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=openbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenBSD</a> on the old Dell Optiplex 3080 tower and finding little quirks / differences from what I'm used to using <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> on my <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=thinkpad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ThinkPad</a>. But overall I have not yet been put off and persist when something doesn't work like I thought it should. Just learnt that I needed to install <code>colorls</code> and alias it to <code>ls</code> so I could get color output in the terminal when typing <code>ls</code>. But I then found that in the normal tty before I started X11 that I even though that alias was present it did not give me color output. After digging through the www I found a suggestion to put the following line in my <code>.profile</code> : <pre>export TERM=wsvt25 </pre>Rebooted to be sure and voila I get a color listing in both the tty and a <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=kitty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kitty</a> terminal under <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=x11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#X11</a> . I'm sure that I'll learn heaps more as I plod along but it is good. <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=runbsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RunBSD</a>
