Ok, it is with great trepidation that I ask this question, and, yes, I feel like a complete idiot (nothing new here). I have RTFM and STFW to no avail. While this topic is discussed ad infinitum in the archives, not even once is a simple "what to do" printed. So I run "make" in "/usr/ports/security/tripwire" it gives stdout that this is an "interactive port". Ok, I download the version of tripwire that is being referenced in the makefile, and cp it to "/usr/ports/disfiles", and I get the same stdout when doing a "make", "this is an interactive port". Ok, I get the message, it is indeed a interactive port. What the hell does this mean, and I how can I install this "interactive port". Cheers, J.
