I tested it by: 1) pkg_delete bacula\* 2) cd /usr/ports/sysutils/bacula-server && make install clean 3) portupgrade -f bacula-client\* 4) portupgrade -f bacula-server\* 5) /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bacula-fd restart 6) /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bacula-sd restart No errors and everything works fine :) Thank you for this! -- Silver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
