pkg_add and an old FreeBSD 5.4 installation

Hellllo.

Just before the New Years, I got this need to upgrade our software on one of our servers. It requires some packages, and so I went to install them.

As I already knew, I was out of luck with pkg_add -r, since the files for FreeBSD 5.4 aren't on FreeBSD's FTP server anymore for a while already.

Minutes later, aunt Google came to help, suggesting that I read FreeBSD manual
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/packages-using.html

shortly, the solution was:
setenv PACKAGESITE ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-stable/Latest/

:)

nginx could not build the server_names_hash hash

When restarting nginx, suddenly I came accross this error message:

could not build the server_names_hash hash, you should increase server_names_hash_bucket_size: 32

Now, that's solved pretty easily - by increasing server_names_hash_bucket in config file to a bigger value. According to author, Igor Sysoev, even p4 can easily handle value of a 128.

So I put
server_names_hash_bucket_size 128;
in nginx.conf, and everything works fine.
