FreeBSD install VIM

by 3 Comments

Currently FreeBSD has only a old version of vi. I like vim as it is a highly configurable text editor and efficient one. And I prefer to work only with it.

How install it:

1

pkg_add -r -v vim-lite

Example; install MC

1

pkg_add -r -v mc

TFTP Server

by Leave a Comment

Install a simple tftp Server under Debian 5 codename Lenny:

1

aptitude install atftpd

Should the server be started by inetd?
On the question answer with NO, it should run as a daemon and not as inetd service:

Choose a base directory for your data.

Test tftp-server:

1

tftp 192.168.10.2
