Hello, net.world.

I am working on getting INN 1.4 installed on a FreeBSD 2.0 machine.  I
have a coupla questions, though:

1. INN wants to use lint in its make process.  But, lint does not seem
   to be included in the FreeBSD 2.0 distribution?  I can't grok this--
   does anyone know where I can get a lint? ;-)

2. Has anyone already compiled INN succesfully?  If so, would you care
   to share your $inn/config/config.data file with me (pretty please)?

3. I am using a 2GB filesystem for my news spool.  When creating
   this filesystem, should I worry about changing the defaults in terms
   of block size or inode ratio?

Thanks for your attention.
