Read about -u for pkg_add (man pkg_add). When a new release comes out, I reset my PKG_PATH and run: pkg_add -u -F update -F alwaysupdate -F updatedepends You should only use ports if you are developing them, or if a package is not available (due to licensing issues for example). Hope that helps. -- Best Regards Edd --------------------------------------------------- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett
