The first was from Polytrpon's IP address: fetch http://213.138.116.80/freebsd/vuln.xml.bz2 and the second was tried from New York: fetch http://96.47.72.77/freebsd/vuln.xml.bz2 In both cases the output of sha256 compares with the same file installed at /var/db/pkg by pkg. How many servers can the OP try? Cheers ... Marek
