As another poster noted, a symbolic link from /usr/ports to the new location should work fine. I shifted mine into my home directory after running out of space on /usr: mv /usr/ports /home/munk ln -s /home/munk/ports /usr/ports Aside from that though, check out the portsearch utility - it has a lot to offer over 'make search' - it's located here: /usr/ports/Tools/scripts/portsearch ^^^^^^^^^^ or whereever you've put your ports now :P Good luck. -- Jez Hancock - System Administrator / PHP Developer http://munk.nu/ http://jez.hancock-family.com/ - Another FreeBSD Diary http://ipfwstats.sf.net/ - ipfw peruser traffic logging _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
