Stephen / Tracey; Maybe it just needs a 'notice' after the port installation is done.
I'm just wary of this instruction in the porters manual: Note: make sure host-dependent files go in /etc or /etc/<name>, but NEVER REPLACE OR MODIFY existing files in /etc. Best to have install place them in /usr/local/share/<name> and then copy to /etc or /etc/<name> only if the files do not exist. If the files exist, display a message that says such-and-such files need to be modified. This also guarantees that the files will be included in the package since everything under /usr/local is included in the PLIST. To handle the copying carefully, the @sample keyword is preferably used within the PLIST. After a package has been installed the contents of pkg/MESSAGE will be displayed if it exists. If I misread this, please let me know. I'm a willing student. Tracey, everything still installs and deinstalls perfectly, Maybe also inform the user in the 'notice' to set the listening NIC to the driver in use on your system. For example I had to change re1 to re0. But that is best case scenario. For my taste, this is good enough.
