I'd managed to actually achieve the goal on my personal server, but when I went to attempt it on a soon-to-be production server it wasn't playing at all. I think what had happened was that I'd left mod_php4 4.3.1 installed (prior to the 4.3.2 port major overhaul), and then went on to install the 4.3.2 CLI afterwards, but confusion abound... I only found out about this when I ran 'make deinstall' in /usr/ports/www/mod_php4 and was told that the MD5 checksums failed on a variety of files, presumably from the 4.3.1 install. Ok I'll consider installing from the source then or hacking away at a package. Much appreciated, Jez
