I am using a Web hosting service that returns 'uname -a':

   FreeBSD davidfavor.com 4.2-RELEASE \
           FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE #0a: \
           Tue Feb 27 14:08:02 MST 2001 \
           root@fc:/usr/src/sys/compile/VKERN  i386

I am new to FreeBSD and desire to have libpthreads available.

In talking with my service provider about installing this
package, they drew a blank and had no idea what I am talking
about. Threads... We don't need no stinkin' threads...

I have located what appears to be the libpthreads FreeBSD port:

   http://www.freebsd.org/ports/devel.html/linuxthreads-2.1.3_2

and now I have two questions:

   1) Instructions to give my Web hosting company, to get
      threading installed system wide.

   2) How to get libpthreads working in my directory hierarchy.

      Perhaps this is as easy as copying:

         ./lib/*     to ~/usr/local/lib
         ./include/* to ~/usr/local/include

Assistance appreciated. Please email me back directly.

Thanks.
