I'm not sure where the problem lies, so I figured I'd start with "ports"...

I just installed the 950928-SNAP, then installed the rdist-6.1.0 package. I 
then fired off a normal rdist of some localisms (we rdist a bunch of stuff 
from a central admin system). At any rate, I got things like this when running 
the rdist to "block" (my newly installed FreeBSD system):

	block: amanda/.profile: installing
	block: /usr/adm/amanda: mkdir
	block: REMOTE ERROR: /usr/adm/amanda/.: create failed: Is a directory
	block: amanda/.cshrc: installing
	block: REMOTE ERROR: /usr/adm/amanda/. -> /usr/adm/amanda/./.cshrc: rename 
failed: Not a directory
	block: LOCAL ERROR: update: unexpected response to query ''
	block: N
	block: LOCAL ERROR: update: unexpected response to query ''
	block: N
	block: LOCAL ERROR: update: unexpected response to query ''
	block: Y989 812383404 644 root :0
	block: LOCAL ERROR: update: unexpected response to query ''
	block: N
	block: LOCAL ERROR: update: unexpected response to query ''
	block: N
	...etc...

Now, before I did all of this, the directory "/usr/adm/amanda" did NOT exist. 
The dist rule that did the above looks like this:

	amanda: (amanda/.{profile,cshrc,rhosts}  ) -> ( ${all} )
	        install /usr/adm/amanda/.;

and when I look at things on the FreeBSD system, I see this:

	block# ls -lR amanda
	block# rmdir amanda
	rmdir: amanda: Directory not empty
	block# rm -r amanda
	rm: amanda: Directory not empty
	block# find amanda -ls
	 23309    4 drwxr-xr-x    1 root     wheel         512 Oct  4 10:18 amanda
	block# 

So, at the moment, I've got that directory renamed outta the way and I manually did a mkdir, then rdist'd into that. But it looks like the rdistd isn't creating directories properly.

Any suggestions?
