It depends mostly on ftpio. However, it may be that you bsd.ports.mk is the problem. You could try and use a newer /usr/share/bsd.ports.mk and whatever it depends on with the files manually fetched to /usr/ports/distfiles. I'm not 100% sure it'll work but it may be worth a try. > ========================================================================== > <N> Nadav > > /Ev/ > > -- > + http://www.cotdazr.org efb@cotdazr.org -- WA6CRE -- http://www.gitt.gov + > + Beep: 805.655.2017 Vmail: 805.340.6471+5, 800.545.6998 USN: 805.982.7180 + Nadav
