If no one on -questions replies (not unlikely), try contacting the
authors of the software in question.

See the man page on pw.

If you downloaded setiathome-3.03.i386-unknown-freebsd2.2.8.tar, move
it to /usr/ports/distfiles, then cd to /usr/ports/astro/setiathome and
type - as root - "make install". If you didn't download that version,
skip the first step, and "make install" will download it for you.
