THIS Tinderbox is designed for building FreeBSD ports, period.  This is
not a generic project building system.

I have to set up a Tinderbox system for my office work in order to compile our software (under different OS) and run some test batteries. But I'm blocked at the step 11 of the Tinderbox install under FreeBSD (ref.: the README file available here http://tinderbox.marcuscom.com/README.html), wondering what I should do in order to make it work properly.

By default, Tinderbox uses NFS to share file systems across builds.  It
can be made to use nullfs, however, so this is not really required.
