Welcome to Freebsdrocks.net!

DISCLAIMER: This web site IS NOT part of the rocks project.

I have created this site because I found easier ways to do things than following the freebsd.org handbook. I found myself in forums and IRC Channels trying to find help about a certain topic and trying to find answers. You will find on this site documentation that will not only make things work but a much easier way to do so. The installation process will guide you through every step of the installation and also updating to the latest STABLE branch. I recommend STABLE for production boxes. Once you're completed through that, You can go to the Applications section and install Apache, PHP or Samba. Then you can go through my custom qmail installation. The qmail install uses John Simpsons latest patches and sets up SMTP over TLS by default. I also have a custom patch called the Skel Patch which will filter Spams out of your users mailboxes automagically! As an option you can install Courier-IMAP and Squirrelmail with other web enabled tools as well. Look for that in the Webify your qmail section of the guide.

I hope you enjoy my guides. I plan on adding more! I at least plan on adding a guide a week. You can also email me any suggested topics to wolson[AT]gmail[DOT]com.
