What does this give: fetch http://portsnap1.freebsd.org/pub.ssl fetch http://portsnap1.freebsd.org/snapshot.ssl openssl rsautl -pubin -inkey pub.ssl -verify < snapshot.ssl You should get something like: portsnap|1288656202|c4523276897a50ff0ca27add61344a4e96cc19a5f7e0bc8f8e17d138819e19a2 It seems like you are having a problem fetching the tag - can you ping the servers? are you behind a proxy? >> Working from Sweden, maybe a little slow! >> As you can see it can't find any mirrors. >> >> portsnap fetch >> Looking up portsnap.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found. This is a separate issue due to bad DNS - the list of mirrors is obtained from: host -t srv _http._tcp.portsnap.freebsd.org and falls back to just portsnap.freebsd.org if it doesn't work. -- Rob Farmer
