MacPorts Install Issue on 10.3.9

Listers...

I need some advice on an install of MacPorts for Mac OS 10.3.9.

I installed the X11 version indicated as appropriate for 10.3-10.3.9.  
I then installed XCode 1.5 which is shown on the Apple Developer site  
as appropriate for 10.3.9, and the MacPorts package for Panther. All  
installs went fine but I'm unable to access the port command from the  
shell, which probably means the MacPorts path is not being added.  
Indeed, I can't even find a .profile file.

Should I be using a different version of any of the installs I've  
described? The website is specific about the version of XCode for 10.5  
and 10.4, but doesn't really describe what should be used for 10.3.

I'm a novice at all this and the end game is to get Curl working on  
our Xserve which is running server version of 10.3.9. My above  
descriptions apply to our development environment. I've installed  
MacPorts with no problem on my MB Pro running Leopard.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
