(v2.2.5)
I got up and running, compiled the kernel, added myself as a user with
adduser - but now I can only install ports as root.  If I am not logged in
as root, all the ftp attempts fail.  Login as root and they install without
any problems...

Is there a security issue here that may be causing this??

Andrew.
