Hello,
    Is anyone else having difficulties getting the ports index? I do:

cd /usr/ports
make fetchindex

and the download speed is so slow that it eventually halts and i get an 
error about the file being truncated. This has been occurring all day today 
on several machines and i'm starting to wonder if it's something local or an 
issue with the server i'm pulling from?
Thanks.
Dave.
