FreeBSD-questions:
I'm an FreeBSD newbie who just did a minimal install of FreeBSD 4.11 on some
vintage hardware, only to discover that the man pages seem to be missing. So I
STFW, found the following:

l
ran /stand/sysinstall, and installed the man pages distribution. But, I still
get the following:
dpchrist at p166v:~$ man man
No manual entry for man
I seem to recall running a "mandb" utility on a GNU/Linux installation sometime
in the past, but I can't seem to find the FreeBSD equivalent (if there is such a
thing).
Searching this list's archive for "No manual entry for man" didn't yield the
answer.
Any suggestions?
TIA,
David
