In fact /usr/local/ is suppose to be, well, local. If you want to share that then deal with it yourself because it's a site defined area. On the flipside, there's kind of a FreeBSD layout imposed on /usr/local for those who wish to make use of it and perhaps some re-organisation might be made to allow per host configuration areas for those who want to nfs export the packages installed there. -- Paul Richards.
