Thanks a lot for your reply, Jaime! But you know, this PC is single machine with FreeBSD. I think it'll be good choice to update source if I can download it from web-site as tar archive (for example, like ports tree).

Could you take a removable HD to another FreeBSD box that has an Internet connection? If so, you could cvsup to a src directory on the HD and then use something like rsync or tar to move the files over. Just check the man pages for information about preserving ownership and permissions. This idea is just for brainstorming. I've never tried it with FreeBSD. I've tried things resembling it with MacOS X. Good luck, Jaime
