I've noticed that most programs installed via ports has the startup script there. Also, be aware that most commonly the program will need to be enabled via the "/etc/rc.conf". eg... 'enabe_apache="YES"..... Just be sure to keep an eye out on "/usr/ports/UPDATING" and after you install a program via ports, read the startup script on "/usr/local/etc/rc.d". Michael -- Michael D.
