Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2000 08:17:04 -0400 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have installed FreeBSD before and like the beast a great deal. I am about to install FreeBSD on a P200 Pro that is going to be a web server w/ MySQL, mail server, and DNS server, all for the small web site. Considering this machine is going to be on the outside of a firewall, I was going to implement the firewall on it simply for itself. My question is this: I am install FreeBSD 4.0-SABLE on the P200 Pro. I want to do a very minimal install on the machine but I want to make sure I have the tools I need to setup things up: 1) I am going to be compiling a number of the servers myself, so I need the gcc compiler. I do not want to install any development programs that I do not absoluting need. 2) I would like to be able to run vim in X-Windows mode from another machine, thus I need to be able to compile vim with X-Windows support. But I do not want X-Windows itself on this machine. 3) I want to uninstall the compiler once I am done using the compiler. How would I go about doing such a bare bones install, but still having the headers and libs I need for vim and all the right stuff to compile code? How do I uninstall the stuff when that time comes?
