I rebuilt libxine today and noticed that it said it was compressing man pages.
I tried man libxine and didn't get one, so I used find to look for it:
find / -name libxine\*
and I didn't see the man page.
My MANPATH is /usr/share/man:/usr/X11R6/man:/usr/local/man

Great.
The reason I knew the answer is because I had the same problem for the last
two weeks and I got what I knew to be bad advice from a few people. So I kept
trying (I've been in the profession for 27 years but it hardly helps...).
I finally went purusing thru the ports directory for CUPS.
I'm working on a project to change the network on my school to open source
software only (FreeBSD/Linux workstations only).
Excellent. Some lucky students there!
I knew about NIS from readings of the handbook years ago, so I revisited
it today, but there' is something that's missing. I understand

I'm using -CURRENT and looking for an easy way to get it to change the
permissions to a usb device when plugged in. I know I can change things

It is a umass device that creates da0 and da0s. I've tried to put in
usbd.conf

What you can specify on /etc/ssh/sshd_config is the ip the server binds
to, not the ip addresses of the clien

You can't?
In Linux I am used to using PGUP and PGDN in order to

Works in FreeBSD, also.
I can't figure out that functionality under FreeBSD.
Even under bash this doesn't work.

Steven, that was it, THANK YOU ! It works great!
That is one of the disadvantages to portinstall and portupgrade. I missed the
make.conf message. Someone else tried to tell me that but I wasn't listening. Your
