Dear Gurus...

When I try to do pkg_add -r something, I get this:

gigaping# pkg_add -r apache
Error: FTP Unable to get 
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-current/Latest/apache.tbz: 
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch 
'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5-current/Latest/apache.tbz' 
by URL
gigaping#      

I noticed where it says /packages-5-current/ needs to be packages-5.3-release/ 
or something. I had this problem a few years ago, but I forgot how to fix it. 
Things were working, and I have no idea what I did to change anything that 
had to do with updating ports (which I did right before I tried to install 
apache).

Any help would be great.
