two ways.... 1) if you still have /stand/sysinstall, just look for apache. don't keep sysinstall around for too long 2) ftp to one of the freebsd mirrors go to the ports for the distribution of your choice. find the apache directory. mget -R *, assuming you have ftp client that accepts that syntax type "make" and it'll grab the actual code and compile it. type "make install" to put it in its proper place and register the package. -----Original Message----- From: Ron Burke - Ostex Mail [mailto:rburke@ostex.com] Sent: Friday, August 28, 1998 4:49 PM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: new users help Installing FreeBSD was a no brainer....
