Are FreeBSD Jails a Containers? | @vermaden

｢ IMHO the term Containers is not reserved to Linux Podman/Docker solutions. The term Containers was in the BSD/UNIX land long before Docker or Podman saw any light of day – and yet – now the new kids on the block are to decide what to call a Container or not?

The FreeBSD Jails were introduced in year 2000 as a Container technology – some called it improved chroot(8) on steroids also ｣

With this spring's (or autumn's) #OpenBSD release creeping ever closer (see https://www.openbsd.org/77.html filling out in near real time), you can prepare for the event by by reading "You Have Installed OpenBSD. Now For The Daily Tasks." https://nxdomain.no/~peter/openbsd_installed_now_for_the_daily_tasks.html.

Enjoy #OpenBSD!

GhostBSD 25 review - Old-school work and frolic | Dedoimedo

｢ GhostBSD offers a live session, so you can get a taste of what it feels like before installing. During the first boot process, the system will check if your underlying hardware has sufficient RAM, and if it does, it will copy the entire image into memory, for faster work ｣

Known – an open-source content management system which lets you publish blog posts, photos to your readers. It’s easy to use and its web interface works on any device. https://archiveapp.org/known/ #cms #windows #linux #osx #bsd #unix

Just ran a basic nmap scan on GhostBSD — not a single open port.

Now it's time to dig deeper:
sudo nmap -sS -Pn -n -f -T4 -D RND:50 -p- -v

Stealth scan, fragmentation, 50 random decoys, full port sweep…

Estimated time: 3 hours.

Let’s see if GhostBSD is truly bulletproof or just hiding something behind the welcome mat.

Is there a FreeBSD-equivalent to systemd drop-in replacements for services?

The only way I can see at the moment is just by backing up the original /etc/rc.d/service file and creating a new one to replace it.

Is it just me, or do *most* IT certification lose their usefulness mid career and later. That is, your work experience IS your proof credibility, the certs add little to no value do to being overshadowed by your actual accomplishments. In general, does the data support this hypothesis?

DragonFlyBSD Lands "Next-Gen" Disk Encryption Code - Phoronix

"As it's been over two years since the previous release of this operating system, DragonFlyBSD 6.4, hopefully the next release will get wrapped up soon with this next-generation DM-crypt target and the many other enhancements that have queued up over this time."

Success!
I'm trying out GhostBSD.
So far, I have one audio device working. The problem is I have 3 audio devices I use.
M-Audio Revo 5.1 sound card
Tigertronics SignaLink
USB soundcard for a Rigblaster NoMic

So far, just the M-Audio is somewhat functional
I really would like to the other two assigned ,but enabling all as default isn't the answer.
They are seen by sndstat and various sound mixers, but not loading as pcm0 pcm4 pcm5 only pcm0.
They mention default hints ?
More to do
