I wonder why if the messages are so important they don't PGP or GPG them.
Wouldn't that make more sense for sensitive material?

Your right, The root directory is writeable by the ftp user. But if i do not
let the dir writeable, the user will not be able to upload anything...
How would i setup things, so users can upload and download, but not delete
nor rename?

What do I need for transferring the movies from the video camera
to my PC? Do I need software? Is that in the ports?
The camera will almost certainly send raw dv-data iver the ieee1394 (aka

I am running a 5.3 stable box. Works fine. I want to put openoffice
on it, but the ports are all either broken or marked as broken.
Should I go back to StarOffice, or just try to slog it out?

Or is there some mechanism to get .80 in from the ports?
Update your ports-tree using cvsup to get an up-to-date version.
You should then install portupgrade, if you don't allready have it.
Updating clamav from 0.75 to 0.80 should then be as easy as:

If I boot to single-user mode (reboot, hit space, do boot -s) and dump /usr
