Could someone explain to me what an inactive port is? Cheers Mike _______________________________________________

Hi, you get inactive ports after upgrades automatically, they (the old versions) are installed, they exist, but they are not active, as they are not in use. Using 'port deactivate' one can make ports inactive deliberately. NB! If you want to see, what ports are inactive, use 'port echo inactive', 'port list inactive' produces confusing results. ! !
