I can't seem to find the "distributions" listed in the Subject: line on any of the 7.0-RELEASE ISO images. What am I missing? I know the 7.0-RELEASE announcement says the "bootable" ISO can be used along with FTP to finish the install, but I can't get FTP (or passive FTP, for that matter) to work as it has in the past. I am behind a m0n0wall firewall, but I believe I have used passive FTP in the past to get around that problem. I even opened up the firewall with a "pass all" rule, but it still didn't work. It looked like it could not resolve ftp.freebsd.org or ftp9.freebsd.org since it hung there "trying to connect with..." until it gave up. I tried several different (known good) DNS server IP addresses, but nothing worked. Then I went looking for the distributions in the ISO images. Not finding them there either has really had a negative impact on my install today, sigh... :-( Regards, web... -- William Bulley Email: web@umich.edu
