I'm having problems updating samba.  I have tried uninstalling the old version 
then doing a make install clean and even tried reinstalling the old one then 
using portupgrade, but still no luck the system is telling me because of 
vulnerabilities in samba 3.0.24,1 it won't work, update my ports tree. Which 
I have done and still no luck.  I understand that right now the ports tree is 
frozen due to waiting for Xorg 7.2.0 but I would still think I could figure a 
work around for samba.  I'm using a home network and I'm not too worried 
about vulnerabilities.  I have a hardware netgear firewall that is pretty 
good about keeping people out well atleast until I can figure out how to 
setup ipfw.  Another day....   Any help would be apreciated!

here is the actuall mesg when trying to make install clean after a fresh cvsup 
of the ports tree.

[root at chrisprance /usr/ports/net/samba3]# make install clean
