Introduction
Topic Goals
This page primarily indexes local wiki pages that aggregate information relating to attempts to build and deploy free software to the OpenServer 5.0.7 platform. While these pages will document successes, it is intended to also show issues, workarounds, and even failures to deploy projects to the platform.
FTP Site
- ftp.bulgrien.net
- The server allows anonymous connections, but login details deviate from what is sometimes expected:
- User Name: anonymous@domain
- Password: any non-blank
- If a domain is not included, expect an error response like:
421 Can't change directory to /var/ftp/ error message.
System Configuration
The following list helps define what vendor-specific packages are present on the systems used to build free software source packages. The list does not necessarily paint the complete picture, as a number of the software listed below is configured to take precedence over some of the vendor-supplied tools. This list taken from the Software tab of the "custom" utility.
