Nodes, proxies, dns etc etc. I read "the porters handbook" to find more how to use our patches It took me quit some time that it needs at least the option: diff -c or diff -u to make patches work in ports the it is described. To spare other people the time to find this out it might be nice to mention this in de porters handbook 4.4 section. hoping to contribute, kind regards, Marten
