Re: racoon configuration syntax errors
Hello,
It looks as though your sainfo line (99) is incorrect. I assume that you blanked out
the actual ip with A.A.A.A?
As per the racoon.conf.dist, an sainfo entry should have the following syntax:
sainfo address 203.178.141.209 any address 203.178.141.218 any
That is, the security association info for 203.178.141.209 (any port) and
203.178.141.218 (any port) follows
You cannot just have one ip address as this does not create a 1 to 1 mapping.
Should you wish to use those settings for a global sa, use:
sainfo anonymous
HTH.
Matt.

Subject: racoon configuration syntax errors
Hello,
I'm trying to set up an IPSEC VPN tunnel between two FreeBSD servers using Dru
Lavigne's
excellent series of articles as a guide.
(http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2003/01/09/FreeBSD_Basics.html)
Unfortunately, I'm having a problem getting racoon to run because of an alleged syntax
error in my racoon.conf. I've tried many variations, googled the lists, and looked at
numerous on-line HOW-TO's but to no avail.
The error message I'm getting from racoon is this:
2003-11-06 13:13:14: ERROR: cftoken.l:494:yyerror(): racoon.conf:99: "A.A.A.A" syntax
error
2003-11-06 13:13:14: ERROR: cfparse.y:1397:cfparse(): fatal parse failure (1 errors)
racoon: failed to parse configuration file.
Here's the area around line 99 of my racoon.conf: (The line numbers are not actually
in
the racoon.conf file)
98
99 sainfo A.A.A.A
100 {
101 pfs_group 5;
102 lifetime time 24 hour;
103 encryption_algorithm blowfish ;
104 authentication_algorithm hmac_sha1;
105 compression_algorithm deflate ;
106 }
107
Could someone shed some light on this please? Many thanks in advance.

Doug

console to serial on -current
Hi all, First of all my apologies for this utterly stupid question. I'm trying to get my console at boot time to sio0, but whatever I put in /boot.config or /boot/loader.conf it simply refuses. It's quite obvious that I'm doing something wrong, but what? The man pages aren't very helpful. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this? The serial connection itself works, after boot I get a nice serial console. I just need to have the kernel debugger on a serial console so I can fix panics from home.

gateway/routing questions
I used to have a situation like this but it was a few years ago and I have forgotten how to set this up in detail. I have a class C network (public) and I have a FreeBSD box with lots of aliases on it providing various services. There is also a Mandrake Linux box that belongs to a customer sitting on my net as well. My provider where I am colocated provides the gateway for my class C in his fancy shmancy switch :-) . I want to add another box (a Linux one unfortunately for some high performance Java 1.4 stuff that won't run on FreeBSD) but I want to make it so that it is on a private class C that should co-exist with my regular class C. Lets say my public one is (this is made up) 128.1.1.0. This is where the FBSD box lives. I want to overlay 192.168.1.0 on my LAN. I will give my FBSD box the address (alias) of 192.168.1.1 . The new Linux box will have a bunch of addresses starting at 192.168.1.10 . The Linux box on the 192.168 network should not have any access going out (so I don't need NAT for example) nor of course coming in. But the FBSD box should continue to have its normal public access on 128.1.1.0 network plus access the Linux box on 192.168. The Linux box should be able to talk to the FBSD box. I think that all I need to do is add an alias address (and a static route out the ethernet port?) to my BSD box and it should work. I don't need anything else to have the BSD box live in this private network as well as the public one, since the private network does not need to get out at all. Is this reasoning correct? In my test lab here I cannot recreate this exactly given some restrictions on how it is set up and so when I go and take the Linux box and stick it in the data room on Friday it needs to work without lots of trouble :-) thanks Chad ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

All of the packages in question are modules you've installed directly using perl's CPAN module, rather than an explicit FreeBSD port. That's why they are missing an origin -- there's no directory under the ports tree that corresponds to those packages. If you check your /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf you'll probably find that all of the BSDPAN packages are marked as held (this is the default). That's basically because of the way that BSDPAN packages are generated is different to normal packages, and portupgrade doesn't really have the smarts to cope with maintianing them. > 1) what would of been the correct way to update the perl from version > 5.6.1 to 5.8.1 without causing package db problems? Now, all of the modules you list above either come with the default perl installation, or have regular ports eg. devel/p5-ReadLine-Perl devel/p5-Term-ReadKey I'd recommend that if there's a port for any perl module, you should use that for preference and only install modules via CPAN/BSDPAN failing that. I'd also recommend deleting and re-installing every module your system as a part of the perl-5.6.1 -> 5.8.1 update. This will help keep your installed perl stuff coherent and make managing upgrades via portupgrade smoother. You've apparently done most of this already. It's also a good opportunity to review exactly what you have installed and prune out the unused stuff. There's no need to re-install any of the packages that come as standard with 5.8.1, since they're all right up to date already. > 2) how do i fix the above Missing origin errors? You don't need to: any BSDPAN package will inevitably have a missing origin.

I hope so. I'm following the example on:
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2002/12/26/FreeBSD_Basics.html?page=2
towards the bottom of the page. That example must be erroneous.

sftp mount?
Hi, I'm wondering if there might be any way to mount an sftp ``filesystem''? At my university everything is firewalled and the only way I can transfer files to/from my account is to use sftp -- but that gets quite painful after a while. I was wondering if anybody knew a way I might achieve what could essentially be described as mounting an sftp ``export''? Maybe I could specify an argument that sets the logical root? So: mount_sftp --root=/home/lewiz foo.bar.com /remote_home would provide /home/lewiz on foo.bar.com at /remote_host? Is this possible in any way at all? Or can anybody suggest any other way I might achieve something similar? Bear in mind I am actually restricted to sftp/ssh.

If you had tried installing from the linux-mozilla-devel port (the
linux-mozilla port is for 1.4, not 1.5), it would have automatically
built ${PORTSDIR}/x11-toolkits/linux-gtk as a dependency.

What do you mean by quite painful? sftp should be very easy to use, as it uses the underlying ssh. All you have to do is automate the "ftp" process.

cendyne 56k external serial modem?
Howdy list, I've been looking for a cheap external v.90 56k lately so I can go ahead and convert my home computer to FreeBSD (has a winmodem currently). I found the cendyne 56k modems all over the internet for about $20, sometimes even including shipping. I think Cendyne went out of business or something. Anyway, I'm just wondering if the cendyne 56k is indeed a controller based serial modem, or if it's a nasty serial winmodem, designed to fool the world into thinking it's controller based. Has anyone had experience with the cendyne external 56k serial modem? -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.

The apache21 port is probably intended to install Apache 2.1 rather than 2.0. It appears to have been created by repo-copy, and is presumably waiting for the port maintainer to update it to 2.1 instead of 2.0.48.

[OT?] Tying a socket to stdin/stdout w/dup2() ?
Hi all, Sorry if this question is a little off topic since it's not strongly FreeBSD-specific. I've got a C program that opens a TCP/IP socket and makes a client connection. What I'd like to do is to 'tie' the socket to this program's standard I/O, so that anything that is fed into this program's stdin, is immediately sent to the socket, and anything that appears on the socket, is immediately sent out this program's stdout. (The end effect being a sort of pathologically simple version of what telnet, (or inetd or ucspi-tcp) does.) Trying to figure this out using Google, the best lead I got was to try something like this: fclose(stdin); fclose(stdout); dup2(sd, 0); dup2(sd, 1); But it doesn't seem to do much good. (At best, I think this means the program can communicate with the socket as if it were stdio - but from the program user's point of view, stdio disappears completely.) I'd rather not resort to getting my hands dirty with select(2), but I guess if there's really no other way, I'll have to.

RE: Resolving IRQ conflicts with 4.8
The problem you describe is becoming common in the 4.x versions of FBSD. I have seen these solutions voiced previously in this list. 1. Check the PC's bios, look for a toggle to disable plug-n-play function. 2. Check that your PCI cards are not in the first or last PCI expansion slot on the motherboard. 3 add option PCI_ENABLE_IO_MODES to your kernel source and recompile. See LINT 4. add device puc option PUC_FASTINTR to your kernel source and recompile. See LINT 5. Follow bug fix using this url http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=40636 6. check /var/boot/dmesg.boot file to see if your pci cards are found as unknown. See FBSD FAQ for instructions on how to fix. Try one of the above one at a time until your problem goes away. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Charles Howse Sent: Wednesday, November 05, 2003 10:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Resolving IRQ conflicts with 4.8 Hi, If this post is considered off-topic, forgive me. Perhaps someone might be willing to work with me off-list? I have 3 PCI devices using IRQ 9! The modem, nic and built-in sound card. I've physically removed the modem, because it was being detected before the nic, and I had no ability to network. In BIOS, I have PnP OS set to "No". There is a setting to allow resources to be controlled manually, but this defaults to "Legacy ISA device". Since I have no ISA devices, this won't work.

Oh, if it is installed.. it might only be installed as

so you may need to link it to the proper name.

Ahh great, now I'm blind! :) Seriously - it seems to confirm that I was confused. Looks like you can either: a) dup the socket to stdin/out, then exec a program (a la inetd); or b) keep stdin/out and the socket, and multiplex between them (telnet). Since I want my program to act as a pipe source/sink, rather than exec-ing something else, I'll have to go with b), which means I'll have to face the select(2) music.

Perl and OpenWebMail question...
Hi list... I've been using OpenWebMail with Perl 5.8.0 for some time now. Recently updated ports using port upgrade, and now my Perl version is 5.8.1. chuck:root # perl -v This is perl, v5.8.1 built for i386-freebsd --snip-- chuck:root # After that, OpenWebMail stopped working... I noticed also that my portupgrade updated OpenWebMail as well, (it was 2.10 and is now 2.20). Okay, I thought no problem, I'll just do a "make deinstall" and "make reinstall". But it fails with the following error message each and every time... ... ===> openwebmail-2.20 depends on file: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/ma ch/Text/Iconv.pm - found ===> openwebmail-2.20 depends on file: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/ma ch/MIME/Base64.pm - found ===> openwebmail-2.20 depends on executable: speedy_suid - found ===> Generating temporary packing list ===> Checking if mail/openwebmail already installed 12602 blocks 19199 blocks Can't locate warnings/register.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/s ite_perl/5.8.0/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/si te_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.0/mach /usr/l ocal/lib/perl5/5.8.0) at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/mach/vars.pm line 7.

I installed XFree86, then i run XFree86 -configure, then i run XFree86 -xf86config XF86Config.new. Everything is ok. Than i cp XF86Config.new to /etc/X11/XF86Config (i tried to copy and to /usr/X11R6/etc/X11/XF86Config but there is no directory X11). then, when i run startx i get the next error: screen not found... I know i can do everythiing with xf86cfg but i don`t understand why the first way has problems (may be i have problems : ). Thank You! Hi; Please wrap your lines at < 80 characters. It is not clear. Did you create the file /etc/X11/XF86Config?

What's happening is that your /etc/make.conf file still contains the PERL_VERSION as 5.8.0, which causes any perl modules to be installed into a directory outside the usual @INC path. Plus if fixes up some other locations where the perl version is referenced. Running perl -e 'print join( "\n", @INC ), "\n";' should return a list of directories with the version string 5.8.1 in them: % perl -e 'print join( "\n", @INC ), "\n";' /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1/BSDPAN /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.1 .

Re: Fatal trap 12: page trap while in kernel mode
Hi! I had this issue not long ago and it turned out to be a hardware issue. The memory was bad. I was able to recreate this by running some command like: find / -name file_that_doesnt_exist -print (just so that it will go thru the whole FS). It would puke almost instantly.

Re: FreeBSD and building XFree86-4 fonts
Hi Rob, Actually, my question was never replied to. And, I was never able to get the fonts to install via ports. However, I did manage to get them installed via PACKAGES. If you go into /stand/sysinstall, you can select the scalable fonts for installation. For some reason, this works. Once the fonts are installed, gnome will continue on in the installation. Once you get to the *.so.1 issue, find the *.so.x file, where x is a number from 1-5 and symlink it to the filename that the makefile asks for. After that, it should be relatively smooth sailing for you. I have the latest gnome port installed on my system and it works like a champ. There is definitely something broken with the port for the scalable fonts. The port author did not reply to any of my e-mails, so I kept tinkering around until I found the package route. Hopefully you have the same success. Let me know if I can be of further assistance and I'll do what I can. Mike On Fri, Nov 07, 2003 at 02:57:40PM -0500, [EMAIL PROTECTED] had this to say: : Hi mike. In searching for someone that might know something about the problem I am finding in compiling applications that required the encoded XFree86-4 fonts I am seeing the same problem that you reported in the questions email group for FreeBSD.

Running RawIO
I am newbie who just installed RawIO ('cd /usr/ports/benchmarks/rawio',
'make install') but am having trouble running the benchmark.
I run 'pkg_info -L rawio-1.2' to see that the program is installed in
/usr/local/bin/rawio. To run the program, I used:
'/usr/local/bin/rawio -a /dev/da0'
but the only ouput is a list of command-line switches and their definitions.
Am I doing something wrong? My system only has 1 hard drive, and I've tried
using /dev/rasr0 with the same result.

You only use this when you default route doesn't apply. This doesn't apply to you since you only have traffic on your 192.168.1.0/24 network.

How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions
How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update $Date: 2003/03/09 22:09:31 $ This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you. III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? === Two mailing lists handle general questions about FreeBSD, FreeBSD-questions and FreeBSD-hackers. In addition, the FreeBSD-newbies l
"The Complete FreeBSD": errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. "The Complete FreeBSD" has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor "Installing and Running FreeBSD". Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information. Have you found a problem with the book, or maybe something confusing? Please let me know: I'm constantly updating it.

That would be my recommendation. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Possible CDROM problems with install
Thanks for the advice. I wiped the drive and successfully installed the minimal install. Since things looked good at that point, I tried to add some software packages. There I ran into trouble. Almost every package errored out. By pressing ALT-F2, I observerd the following errors: gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data --CRC error tar: child returned status 1 tar: error exit delayed from previous errors pkg-add: tar extract of - failed pkg-add: unable to extract table of contents file from "-" Does this sound like a problem reading the CD? Tonight I tried booting from the CD and installing XWindows. The install stopped almost immediately. Now I can't boot from the hard drive or the CD. Both ways the boot stops with the line "Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad1s1a. Looks like I'll be wiping the drive again. Any suggestions? Would copying the CD to another hard drive on the same machine make installing the software packages easier? Thanks, Mike Lowell Gilbert wrote: When Greg talked about bad CD-ROMs, he meant CD-ROMs, not CD-ROM drives. It is, in fact, most likely a bad install disk.

Mike Leman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: I am trying to install Freebsd 4.8 on a computer and having a great deal of problems. The first time I tried the install stopped when the doc install was at 100% and would not go on. I rebooted and it would boot, but I didn't have much. I tried booting from the CD to finish the install, but that didn't work. I would get a screen screen dump that just kept scrolling. Since I'm putting this on a second hard drive, I wiped everything off the drive and started over. When it was loading the BIN to first directory, I noticed I was getting a lot of "/stand/cpio: invalid header: checksum error" messages. Then on the window with progress bar, I got a message "write failure on transfer". I acknowledged the error and received a message asking to try again yes/no. After retrying and failing a number of times, I selected no and the docs installed OK. After this every part of the install had the write failure until I stopped the install. On monitoring side, there were invalid header errors and other errors also. In Greg Lehey's book "The Complete FREEBSD", he notes can be problems with ATAPI CD-ROMs. I have a Acer 36X CDROM that reports "ATAPI 36X MAXIMUM" when the computer boots. Could there be problem with the CDROM drive? Is there something I do for this? Or do I have a bad install CD? I just purchased the intall CDs. Also the Hard drive in fairly new. I bought it and installed six months ago, but have not used till now. When Greg talked about bad CD-ROMs, he meant CD-ROMs, not CD-ROM drives. It is, in fact, most likely a bad install disk.

Some folks still read email with "text only" mailers and at low screen resolutions. So, wrap your lines (ie, hit "enter" key) every 80 characters or so, or someone may complain about your message format. 2. While we're on that subject, your mailer may have the capability to remember that when you send mail to the questions list, it should only use plain text.

Also try visiting a good search engine, and doing a site-specific search at www.freebsd.org. (Good Search Engine=google.com! ---so say the masses ) 4. Once you've read the docs, try doing what they say, and report any confusion or questions or problems that result, along with: a concise description of the problem actions or changes occuring prior to the problem becoming known what may have created the problem, if known what you've you tried to do to fix the problem 5.

Gateway traffic reporting tool (port)
Hi all, I have a small home LAN with four machines. One of them (mine, actually) runs FreeBSD 5.1 and serves as a NAT/gateway between the LAN and an ADSL connection. I would like a tool for traffic reporting, detailing traffic information for each LAN computer (by IP or MAC address) so that I know who uses more bandwidth. This information should be provided on a time interval basis (e.g., between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m., how much traffic per IP/MAC address). If possible, I would like to know traffic from my localhost regardless of what it is forwarding (as it is the default gateway for the LAN, I don't know if that would be possible). TIA for any suggestions, Augusto Jun Devegili ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: the -L in dump
It should. To test it after running the dump do a restore -i -f /mnt/backup_drive/ad0backup/main_backup11_03 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Was working my way through dump and was going over what the -L switch is used for. I guess one would use this when you are dumping a mounted file system correct? Here's what I've been trying to do, dump all of / without dumping /tmp, /proc, /mnt, and /entropy. I've already learned to use the nodump flag with some help from a list member and now I want my dump to run correctly. My commandline is as follows: dump -0 -a -f /mnt/backup_drive/ad0backup/main_backup11_03 -h 0 -L -u / Will a command like this dump the entire file system for me for later restore should a complete meltdown happen? ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Running RawIO
If your hard drive is IDE, then /dev/da0 is definately wrong. :)
Try /dev/ad0.
This is presuming of course that rawio doesn't do anything *bad* to your
data.

I am newbie who just installed RawIO ('cd /usr/ports/benchmarks/rawio',
'make install') but am having trouble running the benchmark.
I run 'pkg_info -L rawio-1.2' to see that the program is installed in
/usr/local/bin/rawio. To run the program, I used:
'/usr/local/bin/rawio -a /dev/da0'
but the only ouput is a list of command-line switches and their definitions.
Am I doing something wrong? My system only has 1 hard drive, and I've tried
using /dev/rasr0 with the same result.

revived ports collection, errors galore
I am running a FreeBSD 4.0 box. I had never updated the ports collection,
so it just kind of stopped working over time.
This last week, I got sick of installing some things by src, so I wiped out
the ports collection, and did a cvsup to create a new, modern, up to date
ports collection.
I executed "cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile", with
ports-supfile looking like this:
*default host=cvsup10.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
ports-base
ports-dns
ports-mail
ports-net
ports-security
ports-shells
ports-sysutils
ports-www
Now, when I try to make anything, I get many errors. I was trying to make
openssh-portable in this example (more after massive error dump):

SO...this is annoyingbut I figure I'll just grab the packages then and
install them.
Ah yes.it gets better:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/apps/pkgs] pkg_add openssh-portable-3.7.1p2.tgz
pkg_add: bad command '@conflicts openssh-3.*'
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/apps/pkgs] pkg_add openssh-3.6.1_5.tgz
pkg_add: bad command '@conflicts openssh-portable-*'
OKI cannot for the life of me even figure out what is going on here much
less know how to fix it. Can anyone illuminate this topic and help me make
my ports collection work? I would be highly appreciative.
THANKS!!
