Thanks for pointing me at the dns issue. I actually did not see that message as it seems to only appear on subsequent rounds of running freebsd-update. I always deleted /var/db/freebsd-update and thus always started clean. I was able to complete the freebsd-update upgrade when I manually specified on of the mirrors as in: freebsd-update -s update2.freebsd.org -r 10.2-RELEASE upgrade So this does seem to be a dns related issue. It could also be the related to parsing the results of the dns lookup. Anyway seems we have a workaround if we specify the mirrors manually.
