It is missing some subdirectories, like multimedia, even though I run cvsup every other night on it. Can I just download the whole ports from : ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports/ports.tar.gz and then just untar it into /usr/ports? And then cvsup should pick up updates that come after that? Or will I confuse cvsup? -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Daemon Dancing in the Dark, a FreeBSD weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/
