Lo and behold, Nathan Stratton once said: > Hi, I am moving my news server form linux to FreeBSD and ran into a > problem. I can't fiend INN 1.4 sec package on ftp.cdrom.com.

Grab the one from the ports collection, it compiles like a charm. Just get in the directory, type "Make" and "Make install". If you're feeling brave, however, I'd suggest that you compile INN 1.4sec unoff2 instead -- the streaming mode protocol is a _huge_ improvement, especially if you're used to Linux. (We just moved our news server to FreeBSD from Linux). Also, you'll want to set the -DMMAP flag in the DBZCFLAGS. *shrug* The pre-made BSD config file works pretty well if you mix and match it a bit with that from the BSD ports config file. Trust me, though -- you want unoff2. :) You're welcome to any of my config files and/or makefiles. I'll stick 'em in ftp://ftp.aros.net/pub/users/angio/news/* for the next few days.
