You can find everything here: http://pfsense.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/tools/packages/

That and the master manifest @ http://pfsense.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/tools/pkg_config.xml

So package is actually XML file decribin location of php file and menues position etc.
If I will create this XML how can I test if it works proprerly?

Can I set pfSense to tepporarly read some other URL where my test packege is located so I can see if everything installs and works the way I need it?

i spnt half of tthe day trying to find out how to altern the location the pfsense looks at, but i olny found the variable, and still cant find the inc file that has that variable :-(

sullrich · Nov 22, 2006, 10:56 PM

"xmlrpcbaseurl" => "www.pfsense.com",
"xmlrpcpath" => "/pfSense/xmlrpc.php",

in /etc/inc/globals.inc

Then take a look at the server side xmlrpc software. Key word: xmlrpc
