I believe in the KISS philosophy: "Keep it simple, Sir". The only time I used a non-system-default port was when the default named was v8 and I used the v9 in ports. Otherwise, FreeBSD has a great selection of security programs as its default. It may be that some admins go for the bleeding-edge ports. --Anyway, I've added the openssl_base=yes to make.conf. I've added "openssl" to the local/etc/pkgtools.conf to my "HOLD_PKGS" list. .... gary > > Can anyone either refute any of the above guesses, or tell me why I > am a fool to go with the base openssl rather than the port? > > Thanks! > > -- > Mark Edwards > mark@antsclimbtree.com > cell: +46704070332 > > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
