Help please, I'm new to FreeBSD and UNIX.

I have been using Win NT for several years now and recently set up a WWW
server using NT 4.0/SP3 and IIS 3. This combination works well but I
feel I can better performance out of UNIX and Apache. I've purchased
FreeBSD CDROM ver 2.25 and have installed it on a test PC, a Pentium 133
with 32 meg RAM, 1.7 GIG HD and IDE CDROM. FreeBSD runs well, I can
telnet to it and I can ftp to the 'net. I've been able to install a few
ports (Pine, Lynx and Emacs), send and receive mail, use the editor and
even install the X server. However when I try to install Apache 1.2.4 or
Apache current (and other ports) off the CDROM or 'net I get an error
message that causes the installation to fail. I've looked at every file
I can think of to find and correct the problem but I can't get past this
error...

After changing to /usr/ports/www/apache (/usr/ports/www/apache-current)
and entering make at the bash# prompt I get the following

>>Checksum ok for apache_1.3a1.tar.gz.
===>Building for apache-1.3a1
cd src; make PREFIX=/usr/local all
Configuration older than Configuration.tmpl or doesn't exist.
Consider copying Configuration.tmpl to Configuration, editing and
rerunning Configure.
If not, you will at least have to touch Configuration.
*** Error code 1

bash#

I've looked for something obvious with no luck. I don't know what else I
can do.
Any help with this problem will be much appreciated.


Thanks,
