[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l /usr/ports/games |grep for drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 formido/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 hlserver-opfor/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 inform/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 linux-enemyterritory-fortress/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 quake2forge/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 quakeforge/ drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 512 Jan 3 11:03 wmfortune/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ Later when I'm at that computer's console I will try to install the "games" distribution from sysinstall (unless someone demonstrates a simple way for me to proceed remotely). Thanks to you all for helping an 'all thumbs' newb.
