  • Just like that, your Mac is a powerful server. The new OS X Server brings even more power to your business, home office or school. It’s remarkably easy to install, set up and manage. And new features make it faster than ever to download software across your network. Add OS X Server to OS X Yosemite from the Mac App Store.
  • Nov 18, 2010  FreeBSD is a UNIX flavor and a really very good operating system in terms of server side but many users like me like to use it as a client side operating system with all of its openness and reliability. Gone are the days when there was a little number of packages and ports were available. Read moreMake Your FreeBSD Desktop Look Like APPLE MAC.
Hi, apart from my new acquired macbook I also use FreeBSD a lot. So it happens I have some external harddrives around that are formatted with UFS2. Given that quite some code for Mac OS X originated from BSD Unix, I had some hope that there would be a driver for UFS available. During my research I even read some posts, that UFS appeared to be available as installation filesystem before HFS+ became mandatory.
I do not want to reformat my macbook, but it would be great if there is a chance to directly
mount my external harddrives. Unfortunately a mount_ufs or mount_ffs command does
not seem to be available. Maybe as an optional package?
Right now, the only way to access my external drives are to plug them into the BSD box,
export via NFS and then mount per NFS on the macbook. It works, but the data has to go over
the network and the BSD box must be running, obviously not the most efficient way...
Many thanks,
Daniel

Feb 17, 2003  Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar is based on Darwin, which is based on FreeBSD 4.2 right? I'm pretty sure it is. Will future versions of Mac OS X or Darwin be based on more current versions of FreeBSD, or will it be updated from OpenDarwin? FreeBSD 5.0 seems like it can be a worthwhile upgrade to Mac.

Now, I know that Mac OS-X is a.nix-based OS, being based on some incarnation of BSD. My question is thus: will OS-X apps run in FreeBSD, or will FreeBSD apps run in OS-X?
