Tips and Tricks for FreeBSD
Want to have your prompt to display something like this ?
username@hostname currentpath>
Example: ghostrdr@defcon1.org /usr/home/ghostrdr>
If so, here is the command to do such:
set prompt = "%n@%m %~> "
For other options that you can have off the command prompt, do man tcsh
Problems with version 3.1 not seeing your hosts.allow, and hosts.deny after installing FreeBSD v3.1 ?
The problem with this is, if you compiled TCP Wrappers from the ports,
then the 3.1 expects them to be in the /usr/local/etc not in the /etc directory. So, these files are no longer seen in the /etc directory anymore, they are seen in the /usr/local/etc instead, so to make sure your system is able to
use these files, make sure they are in the /usr/local/etc and NOT in the /etc directory.
Want to tar up a directory, then gzip it once you are done with the tar ?
Do the following :
tar cvvfz target.tar.gz dir\
