Resetting a port

Hi all,

Brand new to FreeBSD and still haven't got it installed!

I decided to compile as much as possible from ports and it was going well. Then I got drunk and cocky and I messed up a config option (I think) in one of the ports packages. I followed FAQ 6 but when I re-ran make install clean, I wasn't asked the config questions again.

How do I completely reset a port otherwise I may have to start from scratch and try and stay sober this time :e
 
in ports directory
# make config to modify previously saved config
or
# make rmconfig to remove previously saved config (next time you install you will be prompted to select options port)

if you want to remove all previously saved configs for all ports
# rm -Rf /var/db/ports/*

That target should be rmconfig (no dash).
