Maybe now I get it! ;-) Sites for each port are listed in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.sites.mk, and I think you *could* change it there. But I believe that the best method is setting MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE in your environment or in /etc/make.conf. e.g, in tcsh: #setenv MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE ftp1.freebsd.org #cd /usr/ports/editors/vim #make install clean If I remember correctly, in sh/bash it would be: $MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE=ftp1.freebsd.org $export MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE $cd /usr/ports/editors/vim $make install clean Hope this Helps!
