If lynx is already installed it should be in /usr/local/bin and should be in your path, so typing: lynx . in /usr/ports/www will allow you to use it as a local browser and look around. If your problem is that you are trying to install lynx, then cd into the +directory /usr/ports/www/lynx and type: make install clean If you are online at the time, this will fetch the lynx source, build the binary, install it and clean up a bit. hope that helps Shaun Branden
