Ports and Mondifications

[Roger Miranda (Digital Relay)]

Phil,

Thanks for the help. I did follow the phk script. I did get Packages to 
install. Also the packages did install appropriate users to the passwd file 
(www, proxy, etc...), So I am a bit confused on that front.

Any explanation why it did work?
