With FreeBSD, the base system includes [dma](https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=dma&sektion=8&format=html), the DragonFly Mail Agent. Developed by DragonFlyBSD developers, this SMTP client allows you to route outgoing mail through an established, trusted SMTP server. This blog post will show how to redirect cron's email to a generic email address (agmail account in my case). And each server will have his own source email, so I can distinguish them easily.

We would like to perform few rsync on a remote machine to backup some of his important files. But we do not want PermitRootLogin. In this blog we will see one of the alternative: forced-commands-only

My last evaluation on other BSD has decided my to use ZFS for my [NAS](/post/post_20160719). My OpenBSD is working since +8 years very well, but I'm at 85% of his capacity, so I have to replace/upgrade his capacity. Despite my OpenBSD NAS offers a [pseudo-snaptshot system via rsync](/post/post_20160724), this little machine becomes too small and too old to manage and provide files of several GB we have today. So, why not replace the software when we have to replace the hardware ;).
