Nathan, > what i mean is when you guys do a fresh install of freebsd > for a workstation/desktop type computer...what apps do you > install? I understand! That's why I gave you my personal list of apps that I install. They are: > Apache+SSL for web servers. > mod-perl for web-servers. > php4 if you prefer PHP to Perl. > PostgreSQL if you need a relational DB. > bash 'cos I like it. > mreport usage reports for mail servers. > majordomo if you need to manage mailing lists. You said "i don't have time to INSTALL every app in the ports tree.....". I understand that too! But you must understand that none of us have time for that either. And we have equally little time to answer such a vague question. For example, if you are not interested in configuring Web Servers then the first three or four of my personal favorites above might be of no value to you at all. You will probably find a more useful response from the members of this list if you pose a question something like this in future: ------------------ Hi! I am looking for a good network traffic sniffer. I have tried tcpdump and snoop, but I need something with a feature allowing me to [insert relevant feature description here], which these do not have. Does anyone know of such a beast? Thanks. ------------------ Regards, Patrick. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
