I think I suffered a premature-something-or-other 'cos before I read this response, I went to (I think) /usr/ports/lang and tried to shoehorn php3 into the box. It failed with all kinds of different build errors. Probably due to me thinking I should add *everything* on the popup list to the build. It got indigestion and blew up. Then *I* got indigestion when (for a while) *nothing* would build. After logging off that session however, I was able to build stuff later on when relogged in. <muse> wonder why that happened</muse> When I get home from work, I'll happily experiment using your recommendation above. Many thanks for the tips and guidlines yet again. Time for a bacon sandwich now...oh wait, there's yet more goodies below....... > > 4.
