Good to hear from another Apache+FP user and that it will work. Now, I've just got to keep trying on the test server to see what combo needs to be installed. I really wanted to avoid a whole clean install on the productions boxes because of the vhosts that will be interrupted. Another thing that fouled me up yesterday was a "checksum" error because I had an old, forgotten an earlier copy of Apache+FP-1.27 sitting in the ../distfiles. Going to have to remember to use "distclean" instead of just "clean" from the ports. Best regards, Jack L.
