Hi Chip,

Can you doublecheck your setup against the steps listed here to make sure
you didn't miss any:

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2001/09/21/FreeBSD_Basics.html

If that doesn't solve it, let the list know whether that app is installed
on a BSD only machine or on a Windows partition on that machine.

HTH,

Dru
