I'm not really clear on who's netcat's author - the Hobbit within all the source's comments, or l0pht's Weld - or even whether they are one and the same person.. Still, l0pht's site seems a good master-site candidate. --- ports/net/netcat/Makefile Fri Jul 28 12:49:24 2000 +++ myports/net/netcat/Makefile Fri Jul 28 12:52:27 2000 @@ -9,10 +9,7 @@ PORTNAME= netcat PORTVERSION= 1.10 CATEGORIES= net -MASTER_SITES= ftp://avian.org/src/hacks/ \ - ftp://coast.cs.purdue.edu/pub/mirrors/avian.org/netcat/ \ - ftp://zippy.telcom.arizona.edu/pub/mirrors/avian.org/hacks/ \ - ftp://ftp.sterling.com/mirrors/avian.org/src/hacks/ \ +MASTER_SITES= http://www.l0pht.com/users/10pht/ \ ftp://ftp.rge.com/pub/security/coast/mirrors/avian.org/netcat/ DISTNAME= nc110 EXTRACT_SUFX= .tgz >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
