Now matter what I do, I can't get the installer to let me install from behind WinGate! First, it says it can't resolve ftp.freebsd.org. So I do a DNS lookup and get the IP, 209.155.82.18 and tell it to go there. Now, it just can't connect. I made sure all my setting were correct, and they are. I then tried something. I added a mapped link on WinGate that listens on port 22 and maps to ftp.freebsd.org on port 21. I then told the FreeBSD installer to use Passive and connect to get the files from ftp://192.168.0.1:22/.25/FreeBSD/ but it doesn't work. It connects, but it doesn't start downloading the files. If I tell it to get them from ftp://192.168.0.1:22/.25/FreeBSD/2.2.7-RELEASE/ then it says it couldn't CD to 2.2.7-RELEASE. Anyone help me at all? I REALLY want to try out FreeBSD! ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
