hi,

please let me know which issues you have on freebsd. I think I compiled
it successfully on freebsd, maybe I overlooked something.

Thanks for responding. I was trying to compile 083 on freebsd. Got 084 and it compiled fine. Doesn't seem to be logging to the mysql server though. Fresh freebsd5.4 install, mysql41-client, rsyslog-084. Do I disable syslogd? Any other required software? I have no idea how to troubleshoot this. Connect to mysql server just fine with mysql client.

/etc/rsyslog.conf
Commented all but:

*.* >mysql.carcass.us,syslog,syslog,syslog


I have no idea how to start it at boot. Not a bsd expert....yet.
