I am trying to port netscape inBSD2.2.5,  there is no distfile on the CD and I am
not yet online inBSD to access the download sites referenced in the script, also
the referenced ftp sites have removed the english version(probably outdated). I 
have a couple of newbie quesions,(please don't flame me). :-) Is there something
I am missing on the CD's or manual with regard to netscape, as I think i have
followed the instructions correctly, and as a second option, I have a version of
netscape on an OpenLinux cd, but it is in .rpm format as opposed to gzip. What is
this format and can I use it on my BSD system? 

Is perseverance the better part of stupidity?
