Re: Problem Installing Postfix in 6.1

2007-01-15 Thread George Vanev

As Joe said update your ports tree.
For example:
# /usr/local/bin/cvsup  -L 2 /path/to/ports-supfile
# /usr/bin/make -C /usr/ports fetchindex
# /usr/local/sbin/portsdb -u
# /usr/local/sbin/pkgdb -F

If you don't use the GUI use option -g

Have a look at:
# man 1 cvsup

I've tried google and the FAQ, but haven't found anything. When

please keep in mind that I'm a newbie.

That version is fairly dated, also looks to be unavailable, might be an 
idea to bring your ports collection up to date.

Are you certain the box can get out to the internet and resolve DNS properly?
