I've got two FreeBSD 5.4 machines. One is a server, the other is a desktop.
I've mounted on the desktop the /usr/ports directory from the server. My
idea being that I could share the one /usr/ports directory amongst my
machines and save disc space, and also save having to recompile everything
whenever I install a port.
My problem is that, if I do a "make" on one machine, I can't then do a
"make install" on the other machine. (When I try, nothing happens)
I haven't mounted any of the directories from under /var/db (e.g. pkg,
ports)
Is what I'm trying to do possible ?
If so, what am I missing or doing wrong ?
What if You do "make FORCE_PKG_REGISTER=YES install" on the client machine?
Hmm. No joy. Just the same, nothing. :-(
