"portsclean -C" does "rm -r /usr/ports/*/*/work" You might add "nice +20" (or whatever the syntax is for your shell) in front of that. -- David Kelly N4HHE, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

How con I run make clean in the /usr/ports directory and ensure the CPU does not get all eaten up? I need to do this on two name servers so no users need to log in or anything...it can run for a whole day and not bother anyone.

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.

or you can put the following in a script
# cleaning all work directories of install ports.
plist=`pkg_version -voI |awk '{ print $1 }'`
for porg in $plist ; do
cd /usr/ports/${porg} && make clean
done

Ports Clean
Hi all, My ports collection on some of the servers is wasting alot of space.
