I use the three files located at http://www.bugman.cx/cvsup/ and I always put them in my /etc directory (just for easy access). make.conf is empty during a standard FreeBSD installation, but by putting (some) of these options in it, you'll be able to update the ports by cd-ing to /usr/ports and typing in 'make update'. It's way better this way. -- Adam Smith Internode : http://www.internode.on.net Phone : (08) 8228 2999 Dog for sale: Eats lots and is fond of children.
