Docs, I've written up a guide for installing a FreeBSD 4 system with a variety of useful ports, and specific suggested tweaks. I think it might be a useful article for recent converts, or helpful external reference for folks bringing up their own services on FreeBSD and looking for tips. What do y'all think? I've run through it a few times, and everything seems to work, except localhost access for /server-status & /server-info (I assume IPv4 only, and 4.9 seems to ship with IPv6 on by default). Also, I'll probably abstract out most of the 'vi' instructions into a pre- step, and tell users to save their customizations for later rebuilds, but that's a detail. Does this look worthwhile to anyone? Thanks, Chris Pepper PS-"Upgrade Source, Kernel & World" provides an 'express' recipe for upgrading a whole system after initial install. My original goal was to prepare everything so "portupgrade -a" was likely to work properly... -- Chris Pepper: <http://www.reppep.com/~pepper/>; Rockefeller University: <http://www.rockefeller.edu/>;
