Hello, I've been trying to install a NNTP server for a while now on a FreeBSD 2.2.5 system (alright, so I don't exactly know what to do to upgrade--that question is for another day :) ). The inetd.conf file listed the following: nntp stream tcp nowait news /usr/libexec/nntpd nntpd except, when I look where it points to, there is no nntpd to be found! There is no package that I can find on the CD to install it either. I went to the ftp site and found this package: nntp-1.5.11.5.tgz and installed it. It installed and I found nntpd in /usr/local/sbin. So I changed the inetd.conf to point to it, restarted inetd, and nothing happens. I try starting it standalone and it tells me this: ELF interpreter /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1 not found When the package installed, it added some files somewhere but it obviously didn't put them in the right place. Most packages I've added were available immediately and worked right away. I'm thinking that the packages on the ftp site probably require a newer system. Can some kind soul help me get this working or point me in the right direction? I would like to set up a PULL feed from our ISP. Any help would be appreciated.
