There are links on the left side of http://www.freebsd.org/. >(They lead to ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ ...) I had indeed noticed those, and browsed the FTP site before. However, for some time now, this notice is up: ftp://ftp.nl.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/README.TXT Snapshots are not distributed from ftp.freebsd.org on a regular basis due to load on our mirrors. Snapshots may appear here irregularly in the future if there's some specific testing goal to be achieved, but otherwise please look on ftp://current.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/ for the latest FreeBSD snapshots as they're distributed from that site. If there are any snapshots here, they will reside in the ${ARCH} (currently i386 or alpha) subdirectories. - Jordan Hubbard FreeBSD Release engineer. and at that other site, I can find only the CURRENT release, possibly with all sorts of things broken. I need a STABLE or at least RELEASE version... :( To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
