In Other BSDs for 2015/05/16

This includes all the BSD material I didn’t have time to get posted last week.  I hope you have some time for reading today; there is a lot here.

  1. On OpenBSD sshd was set to ‘PermitRootLogin=no‘ during installation if user is configured since May 8, 2009. This is not exactly ‘PermitRootLogin=no‘ by default, but it is very close.

  2. Can DragonFlyBSD have the some 0 to fully configured thing with a PXE setup?

  3. Actually, there is a utility in dragonfly called ‘rconfig’ that allows you to completely automate installs. It’s really quite nice and very underused. There’s some scripts already done – it just runs a shell script.

    The DragonFly installer also can automatically set up a PXE server. So boot a CD image on some other machine temporarily, and PXEboot on the destination machine – no extra setup.
