 From the manual page:
 
 -p, --password[=name]
       Password to use when connecting to server. If password is
       not given it's asked from the tty.
 
 You can also connect by socket:
 -S, --socket=name   The socket file to use for connection.
 
 And or specify a hostname:
 -h, --host=name     Connect to host.
 
 And your server should be running at the time you issue your command.
 
 This is not really FreeBSD or a Ports specific problem and lays in usage
 of your syntax. Please read the manual.
 
 
 Thanks,
