Title: [CLOSED] What's installed?
Post by: mausy5043 on January 20, 2018, 08:11:42 am
I'm new to OPNsense. As I'll be doing some fine-tuning from the CLI, before I get started, I'd like to read up on the various packages. Strangely, I have not been able to find a list of installed software. Google just gives me old articles and the `docs.opnsense.org` are only discussing the front-end.
Could anyone please point me to a relevant, up-to-date source?
To get up and running as fast as possible I'm particularly interested in:

1.  which local DNS server is installed by default?
2.  which DHCP server is installed by default?

Thanks for your support.

Does the list in the Web UI/System/Firmware/Packages & Plugins not give you what you need or is there something more detailed that you're after?

I haven't installed anything yet. I'd like to read the docs first. I'm aware that that is a bit odd  :P

Not very user friendly format but you can find the dependencies of core here:
https://github.com/opnsense/core/blob/master/Makefile

Please note that you can also install plugins, which have their own dependencies:

1.  which local DNS server is installed by default?
you can choose between unbound and dnsmasq
2.  which DHCP server is installed by default?
isc-dhcpd
