I have another question about the compiling nntp port. Since I downloaded the file nntp-1.5.11.5.tgz from your ftp server. So if I try to compile nntp only for nntpxfer, what do I need to download or what should I do to comiple it? Thanks. Ruiyuan Jiang rjiang@akbs.com > You can compile it by yourself.

Also in /usr/ports/news/nntp/work/nntp-t5/xfer/nntpxfer.c after compilation fails, you will need to delete line 627. It's the line that reads: extern char *sys_errlist[]; Then it will compile normally. I will update this soon for the main ports collection. -- Adam David <adam@veda.is>
