The ports tree does not have "versions", so I don't know what "7.0 ports" means for certain -- but I think you're saying "When I installed FreeBSD 7.0 and I chose to install ports in the distributions I wanted, there was no open-vm-tools". Let's see if we can find out when it was added: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/emulators/open-vm-tools/Makefile ...says March 28th of this year: Revision 1.1 Fri Mar 28 13:30:31 2008 UTC (6 months, 2 weeks ago) by mbr Please update your ports tree using csup. And if you DID install a copy of the ports tree during your FreeBSD install, you need to be aware that you must "adopt" the tree. The "adoption" process is described on the CVSup site, but applies to the csup tool as well. http://www.cvsup.org/faq.html#caniadopt Also note this applies to "src", if you installed that too. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
