The hour being late, and me being a fool, I decided to chance it. And later, when I did use easy-import, I still botched it. It told me: 'You are about to create the following directories: src/usr.sbin/rpc.ypxfrd.' What it didn't say was that I would also be creating another directory under that which would also be called 'rpc.ypxfrd.' This was because I started the import from one directory too high up. I've used easy-import successfully before. I don't know what happened tonight. > Btw., at least your initial tags violate the FreeBSD conventions. > Vendor tags must be all uppercase, release tags all lowercase. The vendor tag was supposed to be WPAUL, and the release tag was supposed to be ypxfrd_1_0, which I believe is correct. That extra 'rpcsvc' wasn't supposed to be there. I'm not even sure where it came from. That said, is there a way to fix the tag without removing the file and re-importing? (*shudder*) -Bill
