I recently downloaded Netscape 4.03 for FreeBSD (the xxxxx.tar.gz file). When I follow the directions in the handbook (use the makefile and installation scripts on CDROM 2.2.2b and run them with the .tar.gz file downloaded from ftp.netscape.com, I don't seem to be able to successfully complete the installation. I get an error 1 message and a suggestion to copy the appropriate part of the sub-tree on CDROM 2 to /usr/local/ports/distfiles. That is what I just did and it didn't work. What am I doing wrong, or is there a problem with the installation files and/or scripts? A 2nd quick question: I have an Acculogic ISApport scsi-2 adapter with an NCR 53C406A chip with on-board ROM (currently at the default of D8000h). Is there another device driver on the CDROM that I could use, or are there any new drivers available on the net? Sincerely, Steve McNatt P.S. I am working toward my CNE for NW 4.11 / IntraNW 1.0 and have had a few jobs already where there was at least one unix X-Server that needed to be integrated into the "new" Novell network and wasn't able to do it. I am fairly very new to unix but not a "newbie" so the info requested above can't be too complex. Thanks too complex to Unix systems so I may not
