I've decided to try the transition from Gome 1.4 to Gnome 2. I delted all
teh Gnome 1 packages, and built the Gnome 2 packages (after cvup'ing the
ports tree). So far so good, as I'm able to log in and get a session as a
normal user.
However, i have a few questions.

I'm having a problem building XFree86-4-clinets from ports. I cvsup'd last
night, and this failed during portupgrade, so I tried it by hand. It fails
in the link stage looking for a Xfont libarary. That's a new one for me. Do

I'm trying to get Gnome 2 up and running on a TABLE machine. I've built the
gnome2 port, and I'm getting gdm2 as a login screen. I'm able to log in as
a normal user. But when I change something. it thinks it's changing roots
Gnome config. And indeed all changes I make are affecting all users.
I'm trying to install gonvert from the ports tree, on a machine that was
cvsup'd a week or 2 ago.
I get a message about it conflicting with py-gtk, but when I try to use
pkg_delete to remove that I get that it is required by gnome-1.4, and
py-gnome.
What can I do, so that I can use gonve?

The company I work for is implementing a new firewall, and there is some

There seem to be 2 (or 3) ports of UCD snmp in the ports tree, and the
description files don't enlighten me as to the differences.
Could someone clue me in as to the reasons to use on vs the other?

I need a few screen dumps to include in a bit of documentation for some of

Sugestions as to an easy way to get these from my X sesion would be

I have used xgrab in the past, but while the port builds, and the front end
runs fine, the back end (xgrabsc) just core
I have my FreebSD machines set up in the current preferred (IE default)
ssh/tty setup which prohibits remote ssh logins. So to get to root I ssh as
my normal user, and su -. All is well, unless I need to run a client as
root. Even manually setting the DISPLAY variable does not seem to allow
this.
I find myself in the unfortunate position of supporting 10+ FreebSD machine

The only thing I can get through the firewall is http (using a FreebSD
machine with squid as a SOCKS proxy).

Could you describe your hardware in a bit more detail. I can't imagine
why your system would hard lock, unless there is something seriously
