POST-INSTALL: To use distcc, just: a) Set DISTCC_ALLOW=IPADDR[/MASK] to /etc/rc.conf. b) Export DISTCC_HOSTS to include the compilation hosts. c) Prepend /usr/lib/distcc to your $PATH environment variable. (e.g. in pkgmk.conf) d) Export MAKEFLAGS=-j where n is a number representing the number of parallel jobs you want. e) Optionally set DISTCC_LOG_LEVEL=LEVEL in /etc/rc.conf to be more or less verbose to syslogd. DISTCCD SERVICE There's a service to simplify running distccd. By default, it wont run without DISTCC_ALLOW=IPADDR[/MASK] to accept connections and runs as user 'nobody'. Both values can be overridden in /etc/rc.conf, like this: ---- DISTCC_ALLOW='192.168.1.0/24' DISTCC_USER='pkgmk' ---- There is more information on the public wiki http://crux.nu/Public/HomePage and in the man pages 'man distccd' and 'man distcc'.
