Hi, depending on what you want to do, you should have a look at either /etc/rc.conf, or /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf (you have to install ports/sysutils/portupgrade). The former is usefull to set system wide options, such as CFLAGS, your cpu type, etc., or special options for the makeworld process. The latter is used by portupgrade to pass build options to ports when it rebuilds them. (E.g. 'sysutils/xcdroast' =3D> 'WITH_NONROOT=3Dyes WITH_GTK2=3Dyes' in order to build xcdroast with non-root support and a gtk2 interface). Hint: Like many configuration files on FreeBSD, both rc.conf and pkgtools.conf have a man page.
