How to present/mount New Hard Disk in a FreeBSD Server

The sysinstall utility is used for installing and configuring FreeBSD systems including hard disks. sysinstall offers options to partition and label a new disk using its easy to use menus. Login as root user. Run sysinstall and enter the Configure menu. Within the FreeBSD Configuration Menu, scroll down and select the Fdisk option:

# sysinstall


Select Configure and press [enter]


Select Fdisk and press [enter]


Choose da1 da1 (x)  -> Ok [enter]
ps: da0 -> already use in root at 1st installation. So, use da1 for new disk


Choose A( Use Entire Disk) ->then choose Q(finish)

Choose Label -> Ok

Choose C (Create) -> ps: Make sure the disk at da1 ->

Choose all -> select fs (File System) -> /data

---------------------------------------------------------> OPEN NEW SESSION--->find next step

Choose W (write) -> yes -> Q(finish)

Next step before Write disklabel

Edit /etc/fstab to add an entry for your new disk

#ee /etc/fstab

-> Copy line with FStype (ufs)

-> Change Device same as in Disklabel Editor (Part) and  Mountpoint as in Disklabel Editor (Mount)

Then Back -> to Disklabel Editor in previous windows to write and save

Done.... and may check your disk using #df -h

Disconnect Users From a Remote Desktop

qwinsta
qwinsta is the command; server is a sub command calling the server; and serverIP is the IP of the server you are connecting to. An example server IP could be 17.255.10.1.
A list will display the session ID you need to create the disconnect. The ID value will be next to the "STATE" value of Active. For this article we will say that the ID number of the session is 4. This active connection is what needs to be disconnected.

# qwinsta /server serverIP
eg: qwinsta /server 172.255.10.1

rwinsta 
rwinsta command is essentially resetting the session, the server will now see this and disconnect the user. SessionID is the value we found in the previous step. The full command should read as follows:

# rwinsta /server serverIP sessionID

eg: rwinsta /server 172.255.10.1 4

Wordpress - Permalink Problem

Copy from sis Salina Blog... :) having same problem and this help me to solve the same problem.
_________________________________________________
Salam,

I've just set up WordPress on my personal FreeBSD server, and now I'm trying to configure permalinks to this format:
/%category%/%postname%

This is not working. I've followed those instructions as well as I can, but it's still not working.

In httpd.conf:


Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all


Then,I chmod'ed the .htaccess-file so WordPress could edit the file. The file is now containing this:

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]


# END WordPress

After some reading and checking, I found out that my .htaccess-file is not being read! How to solve this?

From forum I read, he says that "You see AllowOverride None anywhere in your config files?"

So in my httpd.conf, I found it here:

# AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
# It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
# Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
#
# AllowOverride None
AllowOverride All

I comment the original setting, and set to AllowOverride All.
After restart apache, the permalinks now working like a charm.
Alhamdulillah..

-----------------------------------------------------------------
For Ubuntu - you can do like this..


1. Manually create a ".htaccess" file and save it in your main WordPress directory. (This is the one with the wp-admin, wp-includes, and wp-content folders.)

2. Go to the Ubuntu terminal and type:
sudo chown -v :www-data "/enterYourFilePathHere/.htaccess"
You should see a line printed saying that the (group) file ownership has been changed to www-data (Apache2).

3. Give Apache2 write access to the file:
sudo chmod -v 664 "/enterYourFilePathHere/.htaccess"
You should see a line printed saying that the mode of the file has been retained.

4. Next, we have to allow WordPress to write to the .htaccess file by enabling mod_write in the Apache2 server. Type the following in the terminal:
sudo a2enmod rewrite
You should see a line printed saying that it is enabling mod rewrite and reminding you to restart the web server

5. So let's do that. Restart the web server, Apache2, for the changes to take effect by typing:
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
We are all done with the command line prompt; you can close the command line window now.

5. Go into your WordPress admin panel (i.e. http://yourDomain/wp-admin). Go to the Settings --> Permalinks and select the permalink format of your choice. Hit the "Save Changes" button.

6. DONE! Go to your site and check any page (other than your homepage) to ascertain that everything is working as expected.
