    I just rebuilt the machine as the problem was doing my head-in. Freebsd
    5.3-beta5. Basically, X-Developer distro with KDE installed as desktop.

    The first port I try to to install is generally CVSUP. I get the
    "config.guess not found" error straight away... as below.

    I am not sure how to proceed. I'm tempted to fall back to 4-Stable which was
    working fine. Switching to FreeBSD-5 has been a nightmare. I just wanted to
    try PF & Fwbuilder2 as a firewall.

    There doesn't seem to be a lot of posts on the list with this problem so I'm
    assuming its a problem specific to me... but weird.

    Any help much appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Phil.
