Hi,

I'm trying to install gnome packages for my Freebsd5.3 like meta-port, 
fifth-toe and so on using the pkg_add -r command foe says now, but it 
looks like the server is alwys blocked or so, as I get the following 
message:

elvis69# pkg_add -r meta-port
Error: FTP Unable to get 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/meta-port.tbz: 
File name not allowed
pkg_add: unable to fetch 
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/Latest/meta-port.tbz' 
by URL


When I try to access the location

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.3-release/

through mozilla, I always get the message: "553:Permission denied",

But I am able to access packages for other versions like 5.2.1 or current,
so what's wrong?

Werner
