Re: [microdc-devel] re-read dns on hub reconnect

[Oliver Gasser]

Hi Marko,

attached you find the patch file for re-reading DNS on reconnect. I am no FreeBSD expert but as far as I understand you can simply add the file to the other patches in the files directory.
There are also other patches in the github repo if you are interested in extending microdc2's functionality.

Greets,

Oliver

Hi Oliver,

I am using microdc2 on FreeBSD, and I am compiling it from ports. In
its Makefile i see that Pavel Pankov is maintainer for this port (so I
am CCing him as well). Apparently it uses some additional patches
(patch-ab, patch-lib-Makefile.in, patch-no-man), and since I have not
been much into patching and custom compiling (besides FreeBSD's simple
make install clean), would you be so kind to give me a little more
instruction on how to patch, configure and install (and also be able to
uninstall).

Thank you in advance,
