Great, this is just what I was looking for. However, when I tried this
in security/fwtk, I get the following error:

===>  fwtk-2.1 'Please read
ftp://ftp.tis.com/pub/firewalls/toolkit/README for details of how to
obtain the FTWK source.  Put the files fwtk2.1.tar.Z and
fwtk-doc-only.tar.Z into the directory /usr/ports/distfiles and run
make again.'.

These files are in "/usr/local/distfiles", but don't seem to be found
there....

This works fine in other directories...

Thanks,
