>Environment:
generic 386/486/586
>Description:
The ports mechanism as it comes off the cdrom.com disk set goes thru ftp. I tried to get ports for netscape and zircon that way and the files
cannot be located at either the primary site or your repository.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Put the files where they are supposed to be. Better yet, on those 4 disk sets, 
have the ports mechanism take the files off the local cdrom. I guess
there must be some way to do this, but I havent run across it yet.
