Many thanks! My remaining issue with with freebsd-update: mail# freebsd-update fetch Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found. Fetching public key from update.FreeBSD.org... failed. No mirrors remaining, giving up. Yet a FreeBSD-7.0 machine on the same subnet with an identical /etc/freebsd-update.conf file runs fine. How to debug? thanks again dn
