Should I just unzip the file in /usr/ports , but > previosly delete everything??? I'd mv /usr/ports /usr/ports.orig before unzipping the port. Also have a look at the `fetch-recursive-list' target. It allows you to generate a shell script that will download all the required distfiles for a specific port. E.g. cd /usr/ports/www/apache22 make fetch-recursive-list If you are going for packages instead of ports, have a look at pkg_fetch(1). --=20 Best regards / Viele Gr=FC=DFe, barner@FreeBSD.= org Simon Barner barner@gmx.de --82I3+IH0IqGh5yIs Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFG8DsaCkn+/eutqCoRArnUAKC42u9OwqLw+z4CUqtBEStv5ebFeACgtenf eh7Qi51uIjN2xEBdcM13pTY= =gVjC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --82I3+IH0IqGh5yIs--
