It says that --with-pam is always set, and that --with-pam_smbpass is set if you select the appropriate option in "make config". > I really don't want to install samba from source, but it doesn't appear to > me that --with-pam is being set by ports' Makefile, since I don't have a > /etc/pam.d/samba file when all is said and done.

If they're useful options, the port Makefile will usually support them, including any localisation to make them work on FreeBSD. If not, you can add them to the CONFIGURE_ARGS variable yourself. See the Porter's Handbook if you need more information on how to tweak a port. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
