I cd to the apache13 dir and attempt make install and am told that apache 1.3.33 doesn't exist. I downloaded apache 1.3.34 and put it in the /usr/ports/distfiles dir but since make is looking for v 1.3.33 it doesn't see version 1.3.34. So What now? How wouid I tell it to use 1.3.34 instead of 1.3.33? Does it require ports upgrade? What if the portupgrade utility has a different version number and when I try make install on it it looks for a different version (which is not on my system as a distfile)? I'm not complaining. I'm just trying to learn as I go. Thanks to who ever responds. JEK jekillen@prodigy.net PS: general info I discovered on my own re configuration of X server with X.org (rather than xfree86): the configuration file used to be xf86config and is now xorgconfig. I got some site posted data that called the configuration process X.org -config, which it is not. It is just xorgconfig, virtually the same script as the old xf86config script. I got my X server up after, as usual, asking stupid questions and wasting someone's time, probably, and figuring it out my self in the meantime. There is some thing magical about asking questions, even if you don't get an objective response; it's almost like telepathy.
