the choice of rss reader

Well I’m a lazy person and don’t want to start another app to see the rss feeds. And I’m on FreeBSD with apache installed so I perfer a server side rss aggregator.
Browsing the FreeBSD ports tree I have several choices: /usr/ports/deskutils/checkrdf, /usr/ports/www/rnews, /usr/ports/news/rawdog, and /usr/ports/www/amphetadesk.
I use checkrdf before. However it is written by a language […]

The 80G works with the PC again

Everything is backuped when I got up in the morning. So packed the PC and 80G and went to repair it.
FT enough, after I got to the shop, everything is fine in the first try. Don’t know what to say. Maybe the HD and PC just want to travel around
That guy in the […]

to get spamassassin and fetchmail back

Here is the how to
Install the /usr/ports/mail/p5-Mail-SpamAssassin and /usr/ports/mail/spamass-rules port
Put these in /etc/rc.conf

the box coming back

Around 3:00 in the morning the installation is over, finally. Start the cvsup and backup and go back sleep again. Got up several times to make sure the box is busy working.
In the morning I noticed the USB 1.1 interface is too slow for a GB backup. I can’t interrupt it to do kernel rebuild […]

To install exim

According to POST-INSTALL-NOTES:
1 Clear the sendmail queue and stop the sendmail daemon.
As this is a new machine, I just set sendmail_enable to ‘NONE’ and reboot the box
2 Adjust mailer.conf(5) as appropriate.
Here is the new one, with old sendmail settings comment out
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/mail/mailer.conf,v 1.3 2002/04/05 04:25:12 gshapiro Exp $

Upgrade the box

The day begins by worrying my data. I packed the notebook and 80G HD ready and planned to go to the Information Center for a repair. Hopefully they can bring my data back.
Just before I leave, I decided to give the HD another chance: I called Jerry and went to his home, attached the HD […]

The machine is down

Well to prepare for buying the new memory tomorrow, I decided to open the box and write the model of the memory down. After I open it, I found it was pretty dirty: There were dirts all over it. So I use a tool to blow it. However, After clea it up, it won’t work. […]

And for using in a developing code, which is not well documented, we need
EXTRACT_ALL            = YES
And for deleper to see all the contents, we need
EXTRACT_PRIVATE        = YES
