I had thought that my installation for Firebird on FreeBSD 5.1 was ok
but I couldn't connect to the box with IBOConsole from a Win2000
client, so I did a make deinstall make clean from the ports
collection. When I tried to do a make again I got the following
errors: (copied from the last lines)

source/interbase/bin/gbak -c misc/metadata.gbak
source/refDatabases/jrd/metadata.gdb

Stop in /usr/ports/databases/firebird/work/firebird-1.0.2.908.
*** Error code 1

Anybody got ideas of what can be wrong? I'm just learning to use
FreeBSD (or *nix for that matter).
