I am not playing with sudoers file! This just a bare install.

$ ls -ld /usr/ports /usr/src
drwxrwxr-x  46 root  wheel  1024 May 10 03:21 /usr/ports
drwxrwxr-x  18 root  wsrc    512 Mar 11 16:19 /usr/src

Isn't it strange that the ports/src directories have write bit group
permission on?

$ cd /usr/ports/distfiles/
$ ls -ld . openmotif
drwxr-xr-x  3 sioux  wheel  1536 May 10 06:01 .
drwxr-xr-x  2 sioux  wheel   512 May 10 03:17 openmotif
$ cat /etc/mk.conf
cat: /etc/mk.conf: No such file or directory
$



Thanks in advance.

Please provide some more info:

$ cd /usr/ports/distfiles
$ ls -ld . openmotif*
$ cat /etc/mk.conf

Did you grant yourself permission in the sudoers file?

Disclaimer: I am not running 4.1
