FreeBSD users will need to change the Perl shebangs at the top of the executables from #!/usr/bin/perl
Syncoid assumes a bourne style shell on remote hosts. Using (t)csh (the default for root under FreeBSD)
will cause syncoid to fail cryptically due to 2>&1 output redirects.
To use syncoid successfully with FreeBSD targets, you must use the chsh command to change the root shell:
root@bsd:~# chsh -s /bin/sh
FreeBSD users will also need to change the Perl shebangs at the top of the executables from #!/usr/bin/perl
to #!/usr/local/bin/perl in most cases.
Sorry folks, but if I set this with #!/usr/bin/env perl as suggested, then nothing works properly

root@bsd:~# ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl
After putting this symlink in place, ANY perl script shebanged for Linux will work on your system too.
Syncoid assumes a bourne style shell on remote hosts. Using (t)csh (the default for root under FreeBSD)
has some known issues:
* If mbuffer is present, syncoid will fail with an "Ambiguous output redirect." error. So if you:
root@bsd:~# ln -s /usr/local/bin/mbuffer /usr/bin/mbuffer
make sure the remote user is using an sh compatible shell.
To change to a compatible shell, use the chsh command:
root@bsd:~# chsh -s /bin/sh

Which would be enough to tell sanoid to take and keep 36 hourly snapshots, 30 dailies, 3 monthlies, and no yearlies for all datasets under data/images (but not data/images itself, since process_children_only is set). Except in the case of data/images/win7, which follows the same template (since it's a child of data/images) but only keeps 4 hourlies for whatever reason.
For more full details on sanoid.conf settings see [Wiki page](https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid/wiki/Sanoid#options).
**Note**: Be aware that if you don't specify some interval options the defaults will be used (from /etc/sanoid/sanoid.defaults.conf)
