If it is not a FreeBSD (or *nix) system you have to extract the URLs (be careful, there can be more than one per port) and download them by hand. Otherwise (if fetch is installed and the proxy settings are the same) you can execute that file as a script. Put the ports then into /usr/ports/distfiles (or a subdirectory (it depends on the port, take a look into the Makefile for each port). After that you should be able to build gnokii Hope that helped.
