An example is given for the use of a proxy server, however the two ports given don't match (see below). The 1024 should be changed to 1234, or perhaps a more common proxy port number should be chosen such as 8080? For a proxy FTP server, you should usually give the name of the server you really want as a part of the username, after an “@” sign. The proxy server then “fakes” the real server. For example, assuming you want to install from ftp.FreeBSD.org, using the proxy FTP server foo.example.com, listening on port 1024. In this case, you go to the options menu, set the FTP username to ftp@ftp.FreeBSD.org, and the password to your email address. As your installation media, you specify FTP (or passive FTP, if the proxy supports it), and the URL ftp://foo.example.com:1234/pub/FreeBSD >How-To-Repeat: n/a >Fix: Adjust ports as suggested (no patch sorry). >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
