Description

FreeBSD Geom NBD Client is a Network Block Device (NBD) client for the FreeBSD kernel GEOM framework.

The project consists of a kernel driver for the NBD GEOM class in mod/ and a user library for the geom(8) control utility in lib/.

Install

pkg install filesystems/nbd-client-kmod
pkg install nbd-client-kmod

From the ports tree:

cd /usr/ports/filesystems/nbd-client-kmod/ && make install clean

To depend on this port in another port's Makefile:

RUN_DEPENDS=	nbd-client-kmod>0:filesystems/nbd-client-kmod
