    Default FreeBSD 6.2 64 Bit and 32 bit ports

    Hi,
    I've been noticing a few things not quite working properly due to the way that FreeBSD implements the 32 bit compatibility module. Most noticeable the Shell Fork Bomb Protection can't be turned on or off which is a pain when it is breaking things.

    I have also noticed in the output of upcp it appears to be trying to install some 32 bit compatibility ports..but its trying to install ports that don't exist:

    Cannot find package compat-gcc-32 ...
    Cannot find package glibc-devel.i386 ...
    Cannot find package compat-glibc ...
    Cannot find package libgcc.i386 ...
    Cannot find package glibc-devel ...
    Cannot find package libgcc ...

    Is cpanel looking for outdated ports? (WHM 11.2.0 cPanel 11.6.0-C14829)

    Whilst I'm at it, why does upcp continually insist on trying to install frontpage support even though its turned off? (It doesn't work when turned on so why bother?)

    Those package names are specific to RPM-based Linux systems and can be ignored. cPanel installs (usually) the correct ones for FreeBSD via ports or pkg_add
