So, I am not the only one with this problem.

I guess I will have to ditch the port I have and download one. So many
Netscape ports, so little time!

This is appaarently not a bug or shortcoming in the book, but an error in
the port on the CD-ROM. 

What I don't get is why, if the port on the CD-ROM is presumably complete,
the make install process searches for another complete port:

"communicator-v403b8-export.x86-unknown-freebsd.tar.gz"

Perhaps it is complete, but the make install program doesn't know this.

I can't even find a FreeBSD directory on ftp.netscape.com.

Navigating the directory trees of ftp sites is a little bit slower and
more tedious from the command line, which is why I want to get Netscape up
and running.
