The port complains of a checksum mismatch for > wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z. I subsequently fetched "wu-ftpd-2.4.tar.Z" from ftp.uu.net, and it was _different_ from the file of the same name that's in the distfiles directory at ftp.freebsd.org (and its mirrors). The checksum recorded in the port matches the file that I got from ftp.uu.net. So it appears that the problem is in the tar file in distfiles, rather than in the port itself. -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
