Last time I updated the ports I got a bunch of weird files with a *,v extension. I can't make any ports now. Problem #2: Since my last ports update when I run cvsup I get this error message: Cannot get IP address of my own host -- is its hostname correct? I don't have a static IP address, I use a dialup account. Where does the program go to look for my IP address? Does it even need it? If not, what can I modify to keep it from looking for it? Thanks in advance. -- Best Regards, Joseph You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm. Colette.
