What is more recommended... using the ports collection or compiling a tarbell? I've noticed that some minor files (such as rc.d scripts) aren't included with tarbells. Also, are programs, from the ports collection, installed to the same place as a default tarbell? Thanks. -- _______________________________________________ Get your free email from http://webmail.earthlink.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
