However, I make the occasional change to /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk, specifically, I add '-p' to the FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS variable so fetch uses FTP's passive mode to get through my firewall. But when I CVS and get a new revision of bsd.port.mk, it wipes out my change. So is there a better way of having fetch use passive mode that doesn't get wiped out in CVS updates? Something like /etc/rc.conf overriding /etc/defaults/rc.conf, perhaps? Ken To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
