Hi Peter, I hope I'm not being pedantic here - the code *has* been updated "only" 5 years ago[0] - yes, I know ;^) The fact that the software had not seen a *release* for over 11 years is the main issue here as OpenBSD ports maintainers don't tend to do ports which rely on vcs snapshots - a fact which has been mentioned not so long ago[1]. > Try browsing the ports tree for something similar (make search or > http://openports.se come to mind as useful methods), more likely than > not you can find roughly equivalent functionality in other packages. Ahh..., yes - that's the actual link I had in mind :^) Regards, Raf [0] http://bandwidthd.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/bandwidthd/bandwidthd/?sortby=date#dirlist [1] http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-ports&m=143575822211626
