After looking at /etc/portsnap.conf, I tried adding 'INDEX INDEX-8 DESCRIBE.8' at the end, but I', getting this message: Building new INDEX files... DESCRIBE.8 not provided by portsnap server; INDEX-8 not being generated. And in /var/db/portsnap/tINDEX there is no DESCRIBE.8. So maybe this DESCRIBE.8 should be created on the server and included in the snapshot. Barbarahelp
