If you are trying to FTP it, grab the directory of the program of your choice by giving "get program.tar.gz" to get the file. THis works with ftp.freebsd.org at least. 2. Unpack and enter the directory. 3. Run "make all install". The make will get the source file by itself, assuming you have a net connection. Otherwise, you'll have to get it yourself and put it in /usr/ports/distfiles. That should do it.
