A couple of weeks ago someone asked about running NDS for Linux
on FreeBSD, here's a quick account of my adventures in this matter:

The box is 5.0-CURRENT from Feb. 17.

Initially the install process would not run, rpm would complain
'symlinked failed, file exists'.

How much of this was necessary I don't know:

I converted all of the rpms to cpio and installed them, some libraries
related to cryptography services were not recognized as actually
being shared libraries   Then I manually installed the rpms with the
switches to force installation and overwrite files.

Now I am able to run both ConsoleOne and the NDS server
(with some issues).

ConsoleOne runs however it eventually crashes with a Java out of
memory exception.  Part of the install process installed a Linux
JVM.

The NDS server takes the box down after a few hours (process
table full).

(I'd get the actual error codes but I just started building XFree-4 on
the box and it's my mp3 server; so, I don't want to kill it right now)

Anyone who's interested can contact me for more info, otherwise
I'm going to drop the issue for a while.
