There is a file that contains a '%' character on all the ftp servers, however some of the ftp servers such as ftp5.freebsd.org will disconnect a user if he requests a file with a '%' in the name. You can get around it by using wildcard characters, but it does cause problems for mirroring programs. /pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/pkg_tarup?rev=1.2&content-type=text%2fplain David Spindler TIS-Network Operations 512-475-9299 512-415-1434 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
