Hi there,

We make a distinction between "packages" and "plugins".

"Packages" are plain FreeBSD packages without a GUI (e.g. bind). You can install/configure them from the command line:

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/rc-scripts.html

"Plugins" have automatic setups (e.g. os-vmware) and/or GUI pages (e.g. os-tinc).

To help you more we need to know which package/plugin you installed. :)


Cheers,
Franco
