Installing

(vinstall must be run as root or sudo)

vinstall - this is a command line interface for installing pre-configured packages

For example, the following command will install MySQL 5.0 on your server:

vinstall mysql5.0

You can get help by running vinstall by itself.

On FreeBSD servers you have access to the ports collection. To see a list of available applications, shell into your server and then:

cd /ports
ls

To install an application, move to the desired directory and then:

make
make install
make clean
