<br>> > Is there some kind of background script that affects the ports jail?<br>> ><br>> > I manually downloaded ports.tar.gz and untarred it to /usr (within the ports jail). About an hour later, both /usr/ports and /usr/ports.tar.gz had disappeared (the ports jail was running the entire time). Restarting ports jail did not make the files magically reappear...<br>> ><br>> > FWIW, I came across a similar error a few weeks back but figured it was just an anomaly.<br>> <br>> That's a new one to me. Once the jail is started, there shouldn't be any <br>> scripts / processes touching it at all. Can you easily duplicate it?<br><br><br>It seems to be hit and miss. e.g. I can run ports jail for weeks with no probs, then have everything disappear out of the blue. Anyone else ever run across this?<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Dru<br>                                            </body>
