FreeBSD-questions: I'm an FreeBSD newbie who just did a minimal install of FreeBSD 4.11 on some vintage hardware, only to discover that the man pages seem to be missing. So I STFW, found the following: http://unix.derkeiler.com/Newsgroups/comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc/2004-01/0568.htm l ran /stand/sysinstall, and installed the man pages distribution. But, I still get the following: dpchrist@p166v:~$ man man No manual entry for man I seem to recall running a "mandb" utility on a GNU/Linux installation sometime in the past, but I can't seem to find the FreeBSD equivalent (if there is such a thing). Searching this list's archive for "No manual entry for man" didn't yield the answer. Any suggestions? TIA, David
