This time I did use "make install" and the software was automatically installed to /usr/local/news directory. When I tried to configure the INN News and tried to create "history*" files, I did "/usr/local/news/bin/makehistory -r -f /usr/local/news/lib/history" command and I got a message "Can't do dbzagain, No such file or directory". I tried to skip this step and directly to issue the command "inndstart" (INN News server startup command) and I think I got the same message: innd:/usr/local/news/lib/history can't dbminit ME No such file or directory I don't know this problem is caused by FreeBSD v2.1 itself or the installation steps was wrong. Does anyone know this problem? Thanks in advance.
