If you've installed the compat5x port to avoid having to rebuild your ports, that is (as you've discovered) not the best strategy. Your best bet is to rebuild your ports, as you will not only pick up library updates, but also new startup scripts that will take account of the fact that 6.1 has the local_startup modifications to rc.d. Also, make sure that when you deinstall your ports that /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ does not contain any old startup scripts, or symlinks to old scripts. hope this helps, Doug -- This .signature sanitized for your protection
