Install FreeBSD on VMWARE

VMWARE based : http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/#freebsd6.3

Change default language for the console (it's optional default config is ok):

      1. Edit /root/.login.conf
      2. Add the lines
         me:\
         :charset=ISO-8859-1:\
         :lang=de_DE.ISO8859-1: (example given for German)

Change keyboard for the console:

   Run sysinstall, then Configure> Console

Networking

   Run sysinstall, then Configure> Networking> Interfaces> lnc0. Let it DHCP probe for an address.
   Set hostname="localhost" in /etc/rc.conf

Setup SSH

   Set sshd_enabled="YES"
   Edit /etc/sshd/sshd_config
   Set PermitRootLogin yes (Yes I know it's bad... but at this time using OpenSim is also unsecure too ;-)

Apply software updates (notes there is not port collection installed)

   For core software (i.e. not in FreeBSD ports), run freebsd-update fetch && freebsd-update install
   For software installed from FreeBSD ports, look at the portupgrade tool (see pkg_info portupgrade)

Run Nant

  nant

Install OpenSim in Jail

Because OpenSim is a Alpha project naturally it's unsecure to use it in production environment. For region owner in grid mode (Like OSGrid, Francogrid and others) the jail solution (or chroot) is needed to secure the base system.

This a draft : how to install OpenSim on FreeBSD in a jail service.

First make sure that you have all the sources in /usr/src use sysintall to download it or SVN.

setenv D /usr/jail/opensim
mkdir -p $D
cd /usr/src
make world DESTDIR=$D (will take time... take a coffee... watch a movie or call your girlfriend... take a coffee again... and it's done)
cd etc/
make distribution DESTDIR=$D
mount_devfs devfs $D/dev
