After installing SPAMASSASSIN, an error occured on its startup.

The message is

# error: Can't locate Sys/Syslog/Win32.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8) at (eval 19) line 2.

You can fix this Syslog.pm bug by commenting out the line in Syslog.pm (I edited "/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/mach/Sys/Syslog.pm" on my system/FreeBSD6.2.)

# use EventLog on Win32
my $is_Win32 = $^O =~ /Win32/i;
#eval "use Sys::Syslog::Win32"; # commented out this line

I tried to install FreeBSD 7.0 on Dell PowerEdge R200. Dell officially supports only Windows Server 2003 and RedHat Enterprise Linux though, FreeBSD 7.0 was successfully installed on R200.

It runs totally so smooth.

After upgrading Apache 2.2, you sometimes encounter the error "[warn] (2)No such file or directory: Failed to enable the 'httpready' Accept Filter" on FreeBSD.

You need load "accf_http.ko" by kldload.
(kldload can loads dynamically kernel module without rebuilding kernel.)

# sudo kldload accf_http.ko

And enable it in loader.conf

# vi /boot/loader.conf

accf_http_load="YES"
