I have it on a local 2.0R system, but can't seem to get it FTP'ed via the install program. The network is ok, as I can FTP via the command line after doing alt F4. There are no error messages other than the generic failed message in the box on the install program, alt F1 reveals nothing. I can only assume that there is a problem in the directory path, ie the install program is appending some directory onto what I give it in the dialog box that I don't have in my directory tree. Could some kind sole please tell me exactly the directory structure needed on the host and where to point FTP to from the dialog box in the install script. I have read every bit of the install help files multiple times and have tried several different strategies based on inplications in these files. I have downloaded and read every FAQ that I could find that has anything to do with FreeBSD. Please, no RTFM replies unless you can point me to the exact location of the information. As far as I can tell, it isn't there. Thanks, Ron
