Rene, thanx, it all works!

I just wanted to ask what ports is needed when building NOPORTS=no?

Is there any list for me, that I can check and decide if I have needed
distfiles? I'm asking because we are paying for our internet connection by
traffic and I don't want that my machine will fetch a lot of distfiles.

Maybe other FreeBSD gurus can help me? For example person who manages creation
of ISO images for ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/......./ISO-IMAGES/ ?
Or one who manages creation iso images for freebsdmall distribution (4CD set).

Please, could anybody help me?
I will appreciate your help, thanx!
