I haven't used FreeBSD in eight years and haven't installed Postfix since
then. Can someone please help with the GCC error below?

Thanks.

Danny Edge:
 Stop in /usr/ports/lang/gcc42.
 *** Error code 1

You have a problem bulding GCC. You are about 100 miles away
from building Postfix.

You'll need to include a lot more info than that.

You can review this page to get the best experience here:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/freebsd-questions/article.html

Since you've been away so long a review of the handbook would be helpful for
you as well.

The best guess I can make given the info you provided is that you're trying
to built a port without being root.  That isn't going to work, you need
appropriate permissions.

make install clean was performed as root from the postfix ports path. This
is a new install of 7.2R. What additional information can I provide?

Thanks.
