Hi James,

The default configure args for that port are

  CONFIGURE_ARGS= --with-rsh=ssh

So, if you just want to do 'make install', then

  # make CONFIGURE_ARGS=' --with-rsh=ssh --with-....'
  # make install clean

or, if you use portupgrade, add

  MAKE_ARGS = {
    'net/lam' => ' --with-rsh=ssh --with-....',
    ...
  }

to your /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf to save them for future upgrades.
There are also other ways to preserve make options.
