[Fwd: Re: PLEASE HELP PORT PROBLEMS]

[Grant]

hey hey hey!

come on go easy....

these people are just asking simple things... i know they might have
been asked before but still no need to be a little blunt...

Anyways from the sounds of the prob, i would suggest removing the
ports you have and try one of the port packages off the ftp servers...
it might be enough to get ya started and then you can upgrade it from
there..

Have fun
Grant.
