Hi Lowell, The port maintainer wasn't able to reply to my first email, however, he included the following in a reply to my post in questions which I've included in case you should find it useful: Check to make sure your /usr/local/etc/ventrilo_srv.ini file can be read by the ventrilo user/group. chgrp ventrilo /usr/local/etc/ventrilo_srv.ini Also make sure that the log file is writable by the ventrilo user. chown /usr/local/ventrilo-server/ventrilo_srv.log I still am having no luck with it starting up by itself on a reboot, which is my main goal, however, I'll keep on trying and have asked another question. Not sure what else is to be done other than enable it in /etc/rc.conf Thanks Miles On 11/13/06, Lowell Gilbert <freebsd-questions-local@be-well.ilk.org> wrote: > > Miles <milescann@gmail.com> writes: > > > Running 6.1 installed from the most recent .iso CD and sync'd ports > > through CVS, I wish to have the Ventrilo port start up as a daemon > > upon reboot, however, I'm not having any success in having this > > happen.
