Author Norman McFarlane
Hi Nigel,

Thanks for the reply. The guy who did the install for us assured me that
only the Classic would run on FreeBSD, and I did visit the web iste to
confirm. I'fd be grateful if you'd feedback to me anything you get from the
maintainer.

Regards,

Norman

SuperServer used to be available in the same port, and both versions were
installed at the same time - you simply start up the version that you need.

As I don't use SuperServer, I hadn't noticed the change.
I know the maintainer, so I'll check it out. He's been busy porting Vulcan
to FreeBSD...

Nige.
