[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, > this is the message i get [...] Ok, I see you are using /stand/sysinstall to install the (precompiledd) postfix *package* (I may be wrong, since I am using the (source code based) ports collection only). For the difference between ports and packages, see http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html. > what means to re-cvsup my port collection ? CVSup is a piece of software that is designed to synchronize files over a network connection efficiently. Since you were speaking of ports, I assumed that you had an outdated version of the ports collection on your hard disk. For details please refer to http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html#CVSUP-INSTALL In order to install postfix now, try pkg_add -v -r postfix This should fetch the package and install it. If that doesn't work, you can try and use the ftp passive mode: set FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=1 pkg_add -v -r postfix If you are behind a (broken) ftp proxy, you can try a direct connection to the ftp server: unset FTP_PROXY set FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=1 pkg_add -v -r postfix For details please refer to the appropriate handbook section and to the pkg_add(1) man page.
