However u could still do it With http. The url needs to be modified ftp://anonymous:emailid\@domain.com:@ftp.freebsd.org However the downloads tend to break as the files are huge. Maybe u would have a better luck than me. Note : in the email id do not forget to escape the '@' with the backslash Note : Traversing thru symbolic links would fail. Suggestion : use http to check what u want but download using Freebsd. -sundeep -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Marco Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2003 8:36 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: free bsd !!!
