Dear Sir, I am on a network where IP Addresses are allocated dynamically. After booting using kern.flp and mfsroot.flp and attempting to install via FTP, I receive the following error. "Unable to CD to directory /4.0-RELEASE. Please check your permissions or set options to "none" " ...or something to that effect. I am able to ftp to that directory so permissions is not a problem. the ftp site is ftp.nus.edu.sg/pub/unix/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.0-RELEASE I am not able to access any other ftp site either, as the firewall requires me to authenticate to it to access the internet. I have set dhcp to "yes" and release is 4.0-RELEASE. I have looked thru the handbook and FAQ's and find no mention of such a problem. Please tell me where I could possibly be going wrong. Thanks.
