A google search doesn't reveal any recent posts about this. Ports updated just an hour or so ago. Freshports seems to indicate that all should be well, yet I get this: <begin make output> cd /usr/ports/www/mod_frontpage && make install ***************************************************** IMPORTANT This port still has some security issues. Some buffer overflows have been fixed, but since the port depends on ENV[] variables, a local user can still gain a UID of another user. This is a design issue, and also present in the apache13-fp port. Check carefully that the Makefile has FP_UID_MIN and FP_GID_MIN set correctly. If you think security is very important for you, you shouldnt run frontpage at all. ***************************************************** => mod_frontpage_mirfak-1.6.2.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. => Attempting to fetch from http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mirfak/. mod_frontpage_mirfak-1.6.2.tar.gz 100% of 29 kB 57 kBps ===> Extracting for mod_frontpage-1.6.2_1 => Checksum OK for mod_frontpage_mirfak-1.6.2.tar.gz. ===> Patching for mod_frontpage-1.6.2_1 ===> Applying FreeBSD patches for mod_frontpage-1.6.2_1 ===> mod_frontpage-1.6.2_1 depends on file: /usr/local/sbin/apxs - found ===> Configuring for mod_frontpage-1.6.2_1 Using: /usr/local/sbin/httpd Let's see if it's a valid httpd...
