If I remember correctly, that is because the license for sz and rz does not allow them to be packaged and sold. Read the Makefile for the port, and then read the license information that should be distributed with rzsz (not the FreeBSD port, but the original package). You have to make rzsz from a port. The handbook has well-written instructions on how to go about this. It only involves a few more steps than adding the stuff from a package. -- Outnumbered? Maybe. Outspoken? Never! tIM...HOEk
