FreeBSD install/config for Tahi IPv6 testing
Brett Lee
==================================================

1.  Go to the Tahi site and download the Self Test and v6eval tool:
      http://www.tahi.org/release/
    Read the Release Notes for both of these and determine which
      releases of FreeBSD are supported

2.  Get CD #1 of the appropriate FreeBSD release
    Burn it to disk, and boot the system to be installed

3.  Install FreeBSD "Developer" (src, bin, doc) bundle. Plus the "ports"

4.  Enable root login via SSH

5.  Install the necessary ports:  (chose one option below)

    a.  run `pkg_version` on an existing test node see what ports are installed

    b.  read the v6eval Release Notes to find that you need these Perl modules:

        lang/p5-Expect
        security/p5-Digest-MD5
        textproc/p5-YAML

    c.  or go with these:

        apache
        bash
        bash-completion 
        bsdpan-IO-Stty
        p5-Digest
        p5-Digest-HMAC
        p5-Digest-MD5
        p5-Digest-SHA1
        p5-Expect
        p5-IO-Tty
        perl
        wget

        Yeah, bsdpan-IO-Stty was built from an external src
        It may not even be necessary any more ( see p5-Expect doc )

        For more, see:
        ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/
        http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/ports-using.html


6.  Build and install v6eval (and koi, optional), setting sym links as appropriate:

       e.g. `mv v6eval v6eval-3.1.0; ln -s v6eval-3.1.0 v6eval`
            `mv koi koi-2.1.6; ln -s koi-2.1.6 koi`


7.  Create nut.def's in /usr/local/v6eval/etc/

8.  Create tn.def in /usr/local/v6eval/etc/

9.  Create /etc/devfs.rules

    # /etc/devfs.rules
    #
    # ----------------------------------------------------------------
    [devfsrules_unhide_bpf=1025]
    add path 'bpf*' user root group wheel mode 0660 unhide
    # ----------------------------------------------------------------
    

10. Edit /etc/rc.conf as appropriate

    [root@freebsd /usr/local]# cat /etc/rc.conf
    # Enable network daemons for user convenience.
    # Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
    # This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
    #
    defaultrouter="192.168.1.254"
    hostname="freebsd.nowhere.local"
    ifconfig_em0="DHCP"
    inetd_enable="NO"
    linux_enable="NO"
    sshd_enable="YES"
    usbd_enable="NO"
    sendmail_enable="NO"
    check_quotas="NO"
    nisdomainname="NO"
    #
    # --------------------------------------------------------------------
    # v6eval additions: (shows "confirmed" if confirmed in doc 2008/04/03)
    # --------------------------------------------------------------------
    #
    # confirmed: devfs_system_ruleset
    devfs_system_ruleset="devfsrules_unhide_bpf"
    #
    # confirmed: ipv6_enable="NO"
    ipv6_enable="NO"
    #
    # confirmed: ifconfig_<device>="up"
    ifconfig_bge0="up"
    [root@freebsd /usr/local]#


11. Update /etc/group for 'wheel' & 'dialer'

    [root@freebsd /usr/local]# egrep 'wheel|dialer' /etc/group
    wheel:*:0:root
    dialer:*:68:root
    [root@freebsd /usr/local]#


12. Update /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf as necessary
      - DocumentRoot and <Directory "/...">

    Extract the Self Test to your DocumentRoot
    Start Apache with `apachectl start`
    Browse to your server on port 80 to test Apache


13. Reboot and ensure that Apache HTTP starts at boot time

      * If you installed it using the ports, it should have a startup file in:
        /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache

      * That directoy should be configured to be checked at startup by:
        /etc/defaults/rc.conf


    As for me, I created a script containing "/usr/local/sbin/apachectl start"
      and stuck it in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/

    Notes:
    startup configs in /etc/defaults/rc.conf
      e.g. local_startup="/usr/local/etc/rc.d /usr/X11R6/etc/rc.d"
