The script hits sporadic problems fetching files. For eg., for quiet sometime now this happens: ----------- dexter# sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -d /usr/upgrade -r 6.2-RELEASE upgrade Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found. Fetching metadata signature for 6.1-RELEASE from update1.FreeBSD.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Fetching 1 metadata patches. done. Applying metadata patches... done. Fetching 1 metadata files... failed. dexter# ----------- In a previous try, it went through a great deal ahead, upto fetching the patches and all, and then failed. Is this because of a connectivity issue on my end, or some issue with update1.freebsd.org? I don't see any connectivity issues from my side though. Thanks in advance. Best, Amarendra
