Re: SaltStack states

Mind the tense! No tense, my English is far less descriptive than what I would like, as a result my sentences may sound like that. Just realized that "tense" is probably not a good word because it has far too many meanings... :lol: I meant the linguistic one, tense as in "present ten...

Re: Compiling GhostBSD Error

I got almost the same error with my xfce build. I just copied over the missing file from my own computer into the location where there was none: /usr/ghostbsd-fs/amd64/mate/ or in my case /usr/ghostbsd-fs/amd64/xfce/usr/local/etc/doas.conf: No such file or directory so I copied over the doas.conf f...

Re: Zfs mounting issue post install

Hi cheasully, that sounds like a good explanation of what's happening. However I would expect this happening with UFS and not ZFS. UFS partitions are mounted during system startup according to /etc/fstab . It's very much possible that the installer puts da1 in there and it should be da0 if the USB d...

Re: SaltStack states

So far we made two migration of the buildserver, a first time from our webserver to the machine provided from your company; in this case among other things we migrated from a ZFS setup to a UFS based one, I doubt saltstack could have managed that as required. a second time from the machine provided...

Firefox: Switching to ESR?

We've had a discussion about which browser to install by default before. Obviously there are quite some lighter alternatives to the big ones but people need one of the major players for a variety of reasons. And since Chromium has had horrible issues on FreeBSD for a long time now, we don't really h...

Re: SaltStack states

I do not know if I would like that in the web or builder server. Just to confirm doing backup those jails is what I need, the whole website is in jail and if I am not mistaking the builder server is setup to build pkg in jail. In the case of a hardware failure, those jails can be moved to any serve...

Re: SaltStack states

I would stay well away from software that depend on "latest and greatest" things, depending on those type of software in my experience has always been a nightmare, for me at least. In general I tend to agree. But it depends a bit on what the targeted goal is. 1) If I were aiming at a prod...

Re: SaltStack states

Finally managed to set aside a few hours early in the morning to get back to working on salt! And I made some nice progress, too. The result is now 60 states which now bootstrap much of what is needed for the salt infrastructure. Here's what's new: 1) I've removed configuring the "latest" ...

Re: quarterly vs. latest

Ok, thanks for the explanation. I tend to still disagree that "quaterly" is a complete failure (in case of "version stability" it's working fine). But things are already decided on and the actual important thing is that we do something to keep those problems at bay. And yes, once...
