databases/php5-odbc vs. libiodbc

Currently the databases/php5-odbc PHP extension is hardcoded to be compiled with unixODBC backend, so the users that have libiodbc installed (as a dependency of kde4 ports, for ex.) can't installed the first 'cause those two ODBC ports conflict with each other. The php-odbc configure script

Re: Writing to ntfs partitions?

try using sysutils/ntfsprogs (as standalone utils set or via sysutils/fusefs-(kmod|libs) if you have 6.0+). ntfs kernel module really doesn't write anything, ntfsprogs also has limitations (man for details) but they're better than nothing -- Regards, Mirya ICQ #313898202 ___
