2 August 1998
I want to install a www server on my machine. So I looked at
Apache
, which is highly regarded.  And free.  I started about 10am.
Installing Apache
First I found out that Apache comes in many flavours.  I wanted the one with the MS FrontPage extensions already installed.  That's because this website is written using FrontPage.  Through my friend, the
mailing list archives
, I found a reference to the
Apache Server w/FrontPage Module
.  I just followed the steps listed on that page and installed it.   
But wait!  There's more...
I had downloaded that file to /usr/local.  Then did the untar via  tar -xzf apache-fp.131.tgz.  Next was the make install.  That's when I was told:
WARNING: MS FrontPage Extentions require the DES Library
WARNING: Install the DES Library, then build apach-fp
And yes, that is how they spell extensions.
So, off to
install DES
I went.  But I didn't get very far.
8:30pm - What?  DES is installed

lrwxr-xr-x  1 bin  bin  18 Sep  5 12:50 libcrypt.so.2.0 ->
                                           libdescrypt.so.2.0
lrwxr-xr-x  1 bin  bin  15 Sep  5 12:50 libcrypt_p.a ->
                                           libdescrypt_p.a
So off to the #FreeBSD on irc.ais.net, where the suggestion is made that I install the ports instead.  So, following the
