I assume that "fresh install" == "fresh install of 5.3-RELEASE"? The usual thing to do first when a "make buildworld" fails is to re-synchronize your source (CVSup, CVS, CTM, whatever) and try again. Most generally, these little errors (looks like a simple syntax goof in /usr/src/bin/domainame/Makefile maybe) get fixed Real Quick (tm), and a subsequent CVSup will build properly. Alternatively, at least in this case, if you can find the syntax error and fix it, buildworld may work. But your experience may not yet be to the level where you would feel confident in hacking on the Makefile. Check the stable@ mailing list for any clues ("me too" posts, mails with "heads up" or "buildworld fails in domainname" in the subject line, etc.). I'm subscribed, but haven't been keeping up over there.... Kevin Kinsey
