Perhaps there is and I haven't seen it. Well, it might be asking too much for a port install to go changing things in /etc/rc.conf. I do recall installing that port now. I don't remember pkg_info saying it was there before I made the port. Afterwords, the port got installed in a different directory from the system supplied version. I kept getting the older version until I manually removed/renamed the system supplied executables. Guess I should have also modified /etc/rc.conf at the same time. > > Anyway, that seems to be it.
