local-bsdtools
==============

Description
-----------

A collection of helper tools specific for FreeBSD.

They help with

- managing the installed ports and packages
- creating, installing and updating jails
- creating, installing and updating "thin jails"
- recursively mounting of ZFS dataset hierarchies

The package contains also a set of (daily) periodic scripts to

- trim ZFS pools
- update the IPv6 neighbour cache

The periodic scripts are disabled by default.

Environment
-----------

Because the tools use different helper tools like :command:`zfs` or
:command:`pkg` the relevant environment variables according to this tools
also do apply generally.
