I suggest to use jails to have seperate environments, but this is not an quick and easy solution. Another way would be to install the port with another prefix, e.g. make -DTRYBROKEN PREFIX=/somewhere install clean But do it at your own risk. Ports that depend on a MySQL client port might get confused about this. You can install the second server (with client) as user without having write access to the package database. Therefore the port won't be registered, but you can use it nevertheless. By the way: The output of pkg_version -v is often helpful for others to get a good overview of the installed packages. Björn
