Building a new FreeBSD Server and migrating from 7.1 to 7.2

Submitted by webroot on Tue, 03/23/2010 - 13:24

I'm building up a FreeBSD server from scratch to act as a backup to one of our productions servers. To do so I'm going to follow the same path the production server took. It will actually be an incremental downgrade on some parts..

Started with a fresh install of FreeBSD 7.1-REL. The only ports I added at install was KDE 3.5 and sudo. Everything else I'll make manually before I upgrade the system to 7.2.

I'll keep the update log here..
