Was just wondering, is it possible to run irssi on the pfsense server with a screen?
-
There's a FreeBSD package for it. Install it and find out. ;)
pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/i386/packages-8.1-release/All/irssi-0.8.15_2.tbz
Probably not a great idea from a security point of view. Don't try it on a production machine! :P

Sweet! :D
nah, it's just a home router! :P
Can i install it trough the webinterface or do i need to go onto install it trough the terminal?
Also, is "screen" installed already or do i need to install it ? -
Whilst you probably could do it through the web gui it's much easier from the terminal.
I'm not sure about screen, I don't use it on pfSense.

i got it installed, thank you! :D
however when i try to start it by typing "irssi" i get
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.9: unsupported file layoutdo you know why ? :/
-
Are you running 64bit?

-
Then you need to install:
pkg_add -r ftp://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-Archive/ports/amd64/packages-8.1-release/All/irssi-0.8.15_2.tbz
-
You probably want to remove the wrong version first.
pkg_delete irssi
Not 100% on the syntax there! ::)
Steve
-
Yes, first remove the non working package, then install the Good one ;)
If im not wrong, must bee something like:
pkg_delete irssi-0.8.15_2
-
now i got the following error :/
/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.10.1/mach/CORE/libperl.so: unsupported file layout
-
Has it correctly installed that perl library?
If it has I'd say there's a good chance that it didn't uninstall the 64bit version of perl correctly.What do you have listed if you run: pkg_info

you may need to uninstall all irssi depenecies that was installed i386 verson on x64
this is dependecies listed in freebsd ports:

after reinstalling glib-2.28.8_3, gmake-3.82 it now works, thank you guys so very much for the help, it's really appriciated :)

Nice one!
Could have saved some time if I'd thought you may have been running 64bit in the first place! ::)
Actually I'm quite surprised it doesn't have some checks in the package sysetem to stop this happening. Lesson learned.Steve
