Are you trying ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD? Unfortunately, our present release (2.1.6-RELEASE) is not available right now. Depending on your needs, you may be interested in downloading the 2.2-GAMMA (a "post-beta" version of our next major release), or 3.0-CURRENT (a very experimental version of a future release) distributions. You can find 2.2-GAMMA and 3.0-CURRENT in subdirectories with the respective names from ftp.freebsd.org:/pub/FreeBSD. Be sure to read the README.TXT files in each directory! We also hope to have 2.1.7-RELEASE available soon, so please do check back from time to time!
