If system is installed, from say ftp.ee.freebsd.org, then /stand/sysinstall, pkg_add, "make update" in /usr/src, "make fetch" in /usr/ports all default to this site. Especially useful is default site for /stand/sysinstall for first time users. Especially usefull in parts of world, where bandwidth is not commodity :) best regards, taavi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
