But, its sad to say that I can't find any "openobex" ports in my machine. banao# ls /usr/ports/comms/openobex ls: /usr/ports/comms/openobex: No such file or directory I thought of actually using this openobex port but do you know how to find the ports if its not in the distribution? Im using FreeBSD-5.2 and KDE 3.0. Im actually searching the web for it but some sites dont have a link to the files to be downloaded. In case you know where to find the installer that would really work for FreeBSD-5.2, please send the link to me. Thanks again! -edwin > Cheers, > > Matthew
