I tried 'ldconfig -elf -mv /mnt/disk/tmp' and 'setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /tmp'
to no avail. I  am sure that I really do not understand how to use the
ldconfig tool. 'man ldconfig' is a bit dense for me. I need something in a
broader context. Even though I have administered FreeBSD servers for a few
years now, I am still learning something new every day as I go along.

I am wondering at this point whether it is possible to create a statically
linked bacula-fd for future use. I see in the Bacula documentation how to do
this for Linux distros but don't see anything for the FreeBSD distro. I
checked 'make config' for the bacula-client port and there isn't any option
to create such. Is it possible to execute a 'make config' using some
parameter in order to create a statically linked bacula-fd daemon?

Or would it be better to install a minimal version of FreeBSD, install the
bacula-client port, configure the bacula-fd.conf file (or copy that from a
backup media), start up the bacula-fd daemon, and then run the restore job
across the network? This would be in the context of a complete restore.
