The file does or doesn't exist? (I've not checked, we'll leave it in your court) ;-)

Network is unreachable

Network troubleshooting...?

I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but
- I have rebuilt the kernel successfully
---------------------
p0069# uname -a
FreeBSD p0069.bm.local 6.1-RELEASE-p12 FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p12 #0: Thu
Feb 8 13:55:26 EST 2007
xxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WEBSERVER i386
--------------------
- And there is no ports tree installed.. ie /usr/ports does not exist.
- I can ping ftp.freebsd.org
- I can also ftp>open ftp.freebsd.org

So, some network troubleshooting is done. Can you actually download anything from the server, though? FTP runs on two "channels", and needs
to connect to a CONTROL port and a DATA port. Possible that CONTROL is open and DATA is blocked?

Any thoughts on trouble shooting this would be appreciated.

Thanks

Those are mine. Good luck!
