I'm obviously not seeing through a glaring point, but I'm stumped at this point and need help. My FreeBSD machine has no network collection so all my installation work is being off space from my DOS partition after downloading from another connected machine. I am trying install the ports collection. So far I've downloaded the ports.tgz file into C:\FreeBSD\ports. I've run the install.sh script which built a directory tree in /usr/ports. The distfiles directory is empty. Running 'make install' an any port gives an error searching for the xxx.tgz file. Where can I get these archives from on the ftp sites?
