Mail SpamGuard. $ cd /usr/ports/www/zope $ make => Zope-2.7.4-0.tgz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/zope. => Attempting to fetch from http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.7.4/. ^C $ Generally, when make tries to fetch a file, it will tell you where that file should end up, and where it's getting it from. If you manually download http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.7.4/Zope-2.7.4-0.tgz to /usr/ports/distfiles/zope from somewhere with an unblocked connection, then make will verify that the file has the correct checksum, and if so, won't try to fetch it since it's already there. (This is a bad example, since this port uses http anyway... but you get the idea.) - James Cook james.cook@utoronto.ca
