Hi folks I am trying to install custom made port to use winmodems on FBSD. I have used make depends, make, make install process to recompile my kernel. But I have never installed a port that was not on the cdrom. I down loaded this port from http://www.gsoft.com.au/~doconnor/ltmdm-port.tgz using my win98 box, copied it to floppy and then copied it to my FBSD box. I tried cd into directory where tar was at and them make install gave error message "don't know how to make install. Stop". Reading the handbook did not help. Is there a commonly used technic to organize the tar files from different ports? Where are these manual kinds of ports suppose to go in the directory tree? I though the make process would open the tar file make all the directories needed and do what every the port embedded commands said? What are I doing wrong? What sequence of commands do I need to enter? Thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
