Hi, For local installations of FreeBSD via FTP, I tried to setup a local FTP mirror using the preferred method as described in section 3.1.3 of the following :- http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/hubs/mirror-howto.html However, I found that the ftp-master.freebsd.org refused to accept cvsup connection. Moreover, I found that CD-ROM contents were different from what was found on the FTP website and could not simply copy the CD-ROM content to a local FTP server. I hope someone could help to advise an efficient method to setup a local FTP server for easier installation, rather than changing CD-ROMs many many times for one installation. Thank you, John Mok
