You're trying to install the freebsd ports collection on a Mac running what? FreeBSD/ppc or OS X? If FreeBSD, ok, but I didn't realize that architecture port was complete. If OS X, the FreeBSD ports aren't what you need. Try here: http://fink.sourceforge.net/ or here: http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/. Both use cvsup for updates. KeS
