Check out your shell's .profile file - after installing PostgreSQL, it recommends that you add something like: MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/local/pgsql/man PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/bin:/usr/local/bin PGLIB=/usr/local/pgsql/lib PGDATA=/usr/local/pgsql/data export PATH MANPATH PGLIB PGDATA you just need to evaluate the current manpath so it becomes importable, so add a line at the top like: MANPATH=`manpath` Works for us ;-) Cheers, Chris Foote SE Net Technical Manager 222 Grote Street SE Network Access Adelaide SA 5000 e-mail chris@senet.com.au Australia phone : (08) 8221 5221 PGP Public Key available from fax: (08) 8221 5220 http://www.senet.com.au/PGP support: (08) 8221 5792 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
