Looking back over the thread, you mention that, in cron, you're running the following: portsnap cron portsnap -I update ^^ You also say that you think your process isn't functioning because the ctimes in /usr/ports are too old. You do realize that '-I' causes portsnap to "update INDEX files, but not the rest of the ports tree" (man 8 portsnap). -- o--------------------------{ Will Maier }--------------------------o | jabber:..wcmaier@jabber.ccc.de | email:..........wcmaier@ml1.net | | \.........wcmaier@cae.wisc.edu | \..........wcmaier@cae.wisc.edu | *------------------[ BSD Unix: Live Free or Die ]------------------*
