I've decided to try to build up my 1st FreeBSD server. Reading the Handbook is mostly helpful, but I' getting hit with a couple of problems I can't figure out. I was looking for a beginner's list. I think this is the closest to it. The main reason I'm trying out FreeBSD is because I want to set up my own web server, and the Ports seemed liked a way to do it that manages conflicts & dependencies better even that Linux systems. Not being much of a program guy, that sounds good to me! When I try to install the Apache port in /usr/ports/www/apache22, it errors out with IGNORED Unknown Berkeley DB version After checking on the Oracle site, I made sure to install the latest, most up to date /usr/ports/databases/db46 port. It seems to have worked and I can use it in other ports. I'm not sure where to turn next. Anybody got some advice to share? Regards, Jeffhelp
