The /usr/ports/net directory is missing

[cracker1985]

Hi everyone,

I need to install samba for NTLM authentication. But I can't find the /usr/ports/net directory. I tried this:

portsnap fetch extract update

Thanks for reply!

Did portsnap(8) report any error? Do you have other ports (i.e., is the /usr/ports directory there and not empty)?

Check /etc/portsnap.conf and make sure net is not listed on a line after REFUSE.

Thank you for posting here.

I have not get any error during portsnap.

 

[cracker1985]

I have already checked /etc/portsnap.conf. "net" not here

Maybe the update command keeps portsnap from rebuilding the entire ports tree? Try running portsnap fetch extract, without update.

I tried fmw recommendation. But problem not solved yet.

When I go to /usr/ports/ and ls it shows that the net directory is here. But I cannot enter the net directory.

I show net directory is here.But i cannot entering to net as directory

Are you sure it's a directory, not a file? Post the output of # ls -ld /usr/ports/net.

What error do you get when entering that directory?

If all else fails remove the entire tree and run extract again.

rm -rf /usr/ports/*
portsnap fetch extract
