IRC Channel :D
easy, #FreeBSD @ TPUnet

everyone are welcome! :rockout:

yes, this group is going to be small but once we get a few active people we can really start throwing our information around!

Add me too! :)

sweet migons. whats your main use for it? you use any gui ??

here is what im running lately

samba
apache
pure-ftpd
nfs

so you can see its basically a home networking box. i have yet to mess around with ipfw and what not.

I use it as primary desktop OS. For few months, I've been forced to use Windows because World of Warcraft :D But otherwise I have all my work etc in FreeBSD.

And as desktop os, I ofc have gui on it; I'm using Openbox+fbpanel combo.

nice. have you gotten 3d acceleration working with freebsd?

what work do you do on the desktop ?

btw, i run fluxbox on my notebook and no gui on the server. i use the notebook to access the server as it doesnt have a monitor/keyboard attached.

Sure, pretty easy with NVIDIA. For long, I had problems getting AGP working with newer drivers, but I located a fix from NVNews forums (from official NVIDIA developer), although he said the fix might not be stable, I haven't had any problems.

Whatever people do with computer (exept for playing); surfing Internet, chatting, listening music, watching movies / tv series etc.. Or, I sure have played some games too, Enemy Territory, FretsOnFire and some Quake mods for example.

you forgot watching Po** :rolleyes:

am using atm on my quad box
bash
lighttpd + php-cgi + eAccelerator
fedora-core linux layer for steam hl2 dedicated server games ^^
bwm-ng for network usage
munin for monitoring how the system goes down and up
mrtg for other small stuff
mysql for db
miau for irc bouncer
pico for editing files

:rockout:

hey i use pureDB as my database for pure-ftpd. works fine but i want to switch to mysql so i can adminstrate it through the browser. i installed mysql. i can start it and login as root. but how do i add a simple account to it with a password and directory restrictions??

Thread moved to clubs :).

And guys, stop censoring your posts, censoring is seriously more annoying than saying porn.

hey, you guys used any vnc software for freebsd? i was able to install tightvnc (vncviewer/vncserver) onto my bsd box. then i was able to install it on my windows box. i successfully accessed windows from bsd which was pretty damn cool! however when i did a routine bsd reboot i tried to login to x and it gave me an .Xauthority message. now i think it has something to do with vnc as vnc sets up X in a way that it access the xorg server. just curious. btw, you guys should give this a try cause its pretty freaking sweet!
