FreeBSD Port: ossec-hids-client-1.2

Reporting some problems.

Based on how things got installed the start script at
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/ossec-hids   Points to the wrong 'command' and
'required_files'.


command="/usr/local/bin/ossec-control"
Whereas 'ossec-control' got installed at '/usr/local/ossec-hids/bin'

And 
required_files="/usr/local/etc/ossec.conf"
The ossec.conf file was actually installed at '/usr/local/ossec-hids/etc'.


I also noticed that even though one chooses to install ossec-hids-client-1.2
and not the server, what's actually installed is the server.  Though the
ossec.conf file appears to be for a client, if one runs the 'manage-agents'
binary you receive the options as if this was a server installation.  I
honestly haven't dug into why this one is happening.  My guess would be
something got missed in the Make options.

Nonetheless, I'm excited to see a port for OSSEC.

Thanks.
