Since mimugmail's first point used pkg, I went to the command line and ran man pkg. So, if you want to learn from how I went about discovering this (a useful skill), read on! This is my first BSD installation for a very, very long time so I had to learn a lot to get to the answer. Thus they won't know how BSD does things. Meta level thought: I expect that for most people who use OPNsense this is their only and first BSD installation. Point 1 really needs to be addressed, but this is all about point 2. To be blunt: being told to trawl through github is a serious waste of time, especially since you can get the information directly from the command line. All I can think of now is to look inside the plugin installation files, but I have no idea (a) where they are (b) how to look inside them (c) if they still exist.Ĭode: pkg info | grep ntop # FYI: this was way faster than pkg search ntop I looked in all the logs that seemed to make sense and even ran /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb so that I could search the entire file system without needing to make coffee while find does its thing. I probably missed some of those, and I expect them to be rather important. In my blank state of mind engendered from installing a lot of plugins I noticed that one of those with a short install report had above the reams of output in the Updates tab window some post-installion instructions. Is there a way one could install plugins only after selecting all the plugins to install? It's not something one does often, but it would really speed up initial installation if you don't have to install one plugin, wait for the installion to complete, do a page reload, scroll down to where you (think you) were, install the next one, repeat.Ģ. So, in the interest of the community of similarly-confused people, I am asking for a friend -)ġ. I can't change point 1 myself and while I would probably be able to figure out (2) after more time, the answer might help others in the same boat. Cannot find post-install messages once Updates tab window is closed. Laborious method of installing multiple plugins.Ģ.
