Hi Scot, Thanks for the quick reply. That's how I thought it worked too, however that does not appear to be the case; # pkg_add php4-4.4.1_3.tgz pkg_add: could not find package apache-1.3.34_3 ! This is the same problem I ran into when I was using pkg_add -r ... it is setting up php4 in a way that is not compatible with apache+mod_ssl-1.3.34+2.8.25 (which is the apache version I am using). Maybe I am not understanding something that needs to be done with make and the dependencies? Or any other idea how to get around this problem?

NOTE: 1. you'll also need to ensure that all depending ports have their packages built. Scot -- DISCLAIMER: No electrons were mamed while sending this message. Only slightly bruised.
