I tried exactly what you said. Make install clean But it tried to search for make-3.80.tar.bz2 and tried fetching over the net and did not find it. (I think because of our firewall). Now I have ftp'd the file in the /usr/ports/distfiles/ the above file and tried running it and found that it has dependencies on gettext. I copied gettext* there and tried installing gettext and found it has dependencies on some other stuff. How and where I can get everything from, so that I can get this running. I AM NOT JOKING. I don't know stuff about unix world as I am new. Appreciate your help friends!!
