If you're going to stick with FreeBSD 4.x, then you will need to edit your ports supfile to use tag=RELEASE_4_EOL. That's the last-known-working ports tree for FreeBSD 4.x. After that tag was put on the ports tree, they removed all support for FreeBSD 4.x from the ports framework. -- Freddie Cash, LPIC-2 CCNT CCLP Network Support Technician School District 73 (250) 377-HELP [377-4357] [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
