Hi Andrew, Tried the above, results as follows: Ping ok %ping -c 5 update1.FreeBSD.org PING update1.FreeBSD.org (72.21.59.252): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 72.21.59.252: icmp_seq=0 ttl=48 time=240.401 ms 64 bytes from 72.21.59.252: icmp_seq=1 ttl=48 time=240.708 ms 64 bytes from 72.21.59.252: icmp_seq=2 ttl=48 time=240.799 ms 64 bytes from 72.21.59.252: icmp_seq=3 ttl=48 time=240.364 ms 64 bytes from 72.21.59.252: icmp_seq=4 ttl=48 time=240.946 ms No luck with using freebsd-update localhost# /usr/sbin/freebsd-update --debug fetch Looking up update1.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found. Fetching public key from update1.FreeBSD.org... fetch: http://update1.FreeBSD.org/6.3-STABLE/i386/pub.ssl: Not Found failed. No mirrors remaining, giving up. Any work arounds or other possibilities? Is there any diagnostics to run that might clarify things? Regards, Alasdair
