I still do not have internet connection from under FreeBSD, but somehow I managed to download the ports.tgz file from under Win95 and copy it under FreeBSD. For the ports the regular "make install" procedure does not work anymore, because I uncompressed and "un-tared" the whole thing. Could anyone tell me if I can still continue with the installation of ports, or do I have to start from the tgz file again? Thanks, Andy Balogh
