Description

Use this template to display the content of a file, while making a clear distinction with the programlisting template.

Remember that shell commands may be prefixed by:

• name - the name (or path) of the file
• text - text to display as file's content

Examples

/dev/wd0a   /     ffs      rw,log   1 1
/dev/wd0b   none      swap     sw       0 0
kernfs      /kern     kernfs   rw
ptyfs       /dev/pts  ptyfs    rw
procfs      /proc     procfs   rw
/dev/cd0a   /cdrom    cd9660   ro,noauto

is obtained with:

[[!template  id=filecontent name="/etc/fstab" text="""
/dev/wd0a   /     ffs      rw,log   1 1
/dev/wd0b   none      swap     sw       0 0
kernfs      /kern     kernfs   rw
ptyfs       /dev/pts  ptyfs    rw
procfs      /proc     procfs   rw
/dev/cd0a   /cdrom    cd9660   ro,noauto

Tips and Tricks

Using NetBSD httpd: running phpPgAdmin

/usr/libexec/httpd -b -i 127.0.0.1 -I 30080 -C .php /usr/pkg/libexec/cgi-bin/php -x index.php /usr/pkg/share/phppgadmin

To debug add "-f" flag.

Here be dragons?

NetBSD RDP/VNC survey

This page aims to provide a complete list of VNC/RDP implementations which can likely be ported to NetBSD. As a further goal, documentation will be added on how to install and configure the particular implementations.

Client implementations

Server Implementations

¹ Unreliable source (i.e. only Wikipedia).

² FreeRDP is a fork of rdesktop.

³ NX protocol may be ignored completely since there's not going to be available open-source implementation any time soon.

TODO

General

1. Bring other RDP and VNC software to pkgsrc.
2. Check interoperability of servers and clients for NetBSD and other desktop systems (MS Windows, MacOS X).

VNC

1. UltraVNC
2. TigerVNC
3. ITALC
4. Check interoperability with stock MacOS X VNC server, it has extensions not handled by TightVNC and RealVNC at least. I have to run this to make it possible to connect to MacOS:

sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/Resources/kickstart -verbose -activate -restart -agent -allowAccessFor -allUsers -privs -all -clientopts -setvnclegacy -vnclegacy yes -setvncpw -vncpw some-password

Setting password is essential here. Tested on Darwin 10.3.3 x86_64.

RDP

1. Update xrdp in wip, bring xrdp to pkgsrc.

NX

1. Check trends in NX software (I heard free package isn't going to be supported anymore).

Other

1. Check pkgsrc/net/vinagre.
2. KRDC
