    Hi,
    Have one question...

    I recently installed freebsd. The installation was minimal except i
    added the ports collection. Done that because I wanted to be able to
    cvsupdate and after that be able to install software of my choice. The
    problem is i didn't install man pages, so if i issue "man ls" for
    example it won't work. A quick solution is to install man pages from
    the CD. But i wonder... Is it possible to install the man pages using
    the port collection?

    Tx
