There are a few hundred files, so doing it one get at a time isn't going to fly. Can this be done from the command line ? I looked into ports but the search didn't turn up much. This must be a common problem. (Do I have to tar it to an archive, then ftp the archive and decompress ?) thanks, Darryl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
