What you need to understand about the 'pkg_add -r' is that this is a SNAPSHOT IN TIME, and uses the BUILD IN DEFAULT OPTIONS (sorry, about the shouting), but this is important. 9.x is NOT released yet, so, to say you want the pre-build binaries is also a moving target. on a second box, if you don't want to touch your production box, make the individual packages with your options, make packages, put them somethere, and then use pkg_add -r "{your url}" to add the package. you could even do something like: pkg_add -r "{your url}" {package} || pkg_add -r {your package} that would look, first for YOUR package, then the pre-build one that is static and you should not use anyway.. -- Michael Scheidell, CTO o: 561-999-5000 d: 561-948-2259 >*| *SECNAP Network Security Corporation * Best Mobile Solutions Product of 2011 * Best Intrusion Prevention Product * Hot Company Finalist 2011 * Best Email Security Product * Certified SNORT Integrator
