There is only the one FreeBSD box in my stable, hence I don't need to build packages for others. It's a somewhat minimalist box (all I can afford), and I'd like to recover some space. Can I just delete their contents? aneurin# du -sk /usr/ports/distfiles /var/db/portsnap/files 965198 /usr/ports/distfiles 106594 /var/db/portsnap/files It will claw me back about 1GB, which for me is a big deal... -- Dave Horsfall DTM (VK2KFU) "Those who don't understand security will suffer."
