You can add the following line to your /etc/make.conf WRKDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj/ports This will change the workdir of you portstree to /usr/obj/ports. No working directory will be created under /usr/ports so you can just clean up your workdirs with the following command: rm -rf /usr/obj/ports/* -- Oliver PETER, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], ICQ# 113969174 "Worker bees can leave.
