I've been downloading PostgreSQL7 for the last hour or so.. all seems to be going well. I just cd'ed to /usr/ports/databases/postgresql7 then typed make. Away it went. Anyway, do I need to do make build, or make install, or make clean? Thanks.. Also, I know debian linux has a 'apt-getupdate' feature to get the latest version. Can anyone tell me if FreeBSD have anything similar? Maybe another port? Cheers __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
