No publisher elpaso 2007-06-20T09:42:58Z How-to http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/freebsd62mapserver410 This steps through installing Mapserver 4.10.1 on a new installation of FreeBSD 6.2. It requires some understanding of FreeBSD and UNIX, but not much. It also includes support for PostGIS 1.2.1 and php_mapscript. I was doing this after about 2 days of fiddling with FreeBSD, so believe me, I didn't know much about what I was doing, so this explanation might be tediously verbose! Mostly, the ports system is used, but I found that problems with the ports system building dependencies can be overcome by going in and building the dependency yourself first. It is likely to become out-of-date quite quickly, so please let me know if something has changed.
