Thanks Glenn,
Here are the relevant specs for both of my machines:
bash-2.05b$ pkg_info | grep mrtg
mrtg-2.12.2,1 The multi-router traffic grapher
bash-2.05b$ uname -a
FreeBSD host.foo.bar 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #2: Sat Nov 19 15:37:1=
0
EST 2005 root@foo.bar:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DORMIR i386
bash-2.05b$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.7 built for i386-freebsd-64int
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=

I have a 4.9 box exhibiting the exact same problem. Here are it's specs:
[mbest@helium][~]$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-freebsd
[mbest@helium][~]$ pkg_info | grep mrtg
mrtg-2.12.2,1 The multi-router traffic grapher

The only thing the same is the version of my MRTG port.
I was unable to find the which module installs FindBin. I checked
freshports.org and didn't find any port specifically related to anything
called FindBin. Thanks.
