Could you show us the pkg.conf from the various machines please?  There
have been some recent changes to support alternate forms of mirroring
(SRV, HTTP) -- but the default, unless you overrode it, should be to
resolve pkg.freebsd.org into actual HTTP servers and ports via decoding
the SRV records.  That hasn't changed for a long time.

	Cheers,

PS.  The new freebsd-pkg@... list would probably be a better venue for
this question.
