Hello,
I currently have my FreeBSD 5.4 system setup properly to use the ports system for maintaining Apache 2, MySQL 4.1, PHP5, and PHPMyAdmin, that DirectAdmin used to maintain control over.

Anyways, I'm interested in switching over the last parts of my system that seem to use "customized" version of the package made by DA.

I would like to switch over:
- vm-pop3d
- exim
- proftpd
- bind (named)
to the FreeBSD ports system, but still have them compatible with DirectAdmin.

Has anyone done this, or know a way to do this?
Since DA makes customized packages, what are the changes that are made, and would using ports work?
