The packages should have a .tar.gz or .tgz file available. The ports package requires you go the the directory immediately above the port you want get the whole directory and dump it into /usr/ports (??? may be wrong off the top of my head). Then do a make (again havn't done a port in a while) It's all in the FreeBSD handbook. > > Thanks! > Ricardo > -------------------------------\\|!|//-------------------------------- | Colin P.
