I can not get the port by typing get netscape4.tar.gz. I get
an error message saying that the file does not exist. Although
I can download the directory if I type get netscape4.tar, but 
when I untar and make install the files I get error messages:

>> communicator-v403b8-export.x86-unknown-freebsd.tar.gz doesn't 
seem to exist on this system.

"the make install then tries to ftp the file from ftp.freebsd... 
and ftp.netscape... after failing this I get the error messages 
saying:"

***error code 1

stop
***error code 1

stop
***error code 1

stop 
#

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong.
