Hi As I had told it during the main OS install, not to enable remote logins, sshd and all that (as I do not intend to remote admin the thing, as I have a KVM switch between 4 machines!) I think yet another protracted full clean install would be needed to do much of that. :( I do not have another two/three days to waste at this time. Missing compiler? could be, but it successfully did the 'vim' thing, building Perl or Python (whatever) and something else huge in the process. (three hours in total!) I've also got the same question running on one FreeBSD group, so will see what comes back from there too. Regards.
