I know how to install Linux RPMs in FreeBSD. But this time, I have no idea. Quite puzzled, and needing help. Many thanks in advance. Ken- Assuming the package ends in .tar.gz or .tgz, you can extract the tarball via: tar -zxvf <filename.tar.gz> If the tarball ends in .tbz, extract it with the following; tar -jxvf <filename.tbz> Once the file is extracted, there should be a README file that tells you how to install the binary. (Assuming this is not a package specifically built for FreeBSD) Hope that helps, I'm a relative newb to BSD myself Regards -- Dan Gonzalez [EMAIL PROTECTED] Google Talk: spammesilly _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
