RTFM. Specifically, read the section of the Handbook that deals with compiling a new kernel. Look at the LINT file for hints about your specific card. > How to get running VMware... I've done all necessary things, but I > am getting errors about non-existent files... ??? I have no idea. You might consider asking this question in a separate mail, delineating what you think "all necessary things" means and the actual text of the error messages, and someone more excited about VMWare than I can help you. > What ftpd is installed by default in FreeBSD??? AFAIK, it's the ftpd that was written at Berkeley. It has since been modified many times by the FreeBSD team members and others. (In particular, it is _not_ WU-ftpd, if that's what you mean.) > Is it secure? Is there vulnurabilities in it ??? There is an obscure bug related to globbing in the ftpd in the 4.[012] releases, but it's fixed as soon as you next CVsup and make world. > How to change Perl installed on FreeBSD on newest version? This has been discussed on this list recently. Check the archives for a post by Tim Ayers.
