Firstly, get portmaster: # pkg_add -r portmaster Then read the manpage: % man portmaster Try something like: # portmaster -o databases/mysql55-client mysql-client # portmaster -o databases/mysql55-server mysql-server Then, because you haven't read the manpage you'll have to confirm everything. Read the manpage! If it doesn't work (because I made a mistake with the -o syntax), read the manpage and then let us have the output. Chris
