I'm the last one who got help on it. Basically, in my mind the error sounds like there's a problem with the server, but it's really on your machine. What you need to do is find the file where portsnap fetch downloads the ports tarball, and delete it, then start over. It's somewhere under /var - google for my last thread, and you'll find the reply of the good gentleman who helped me if you can't grep the exact path. Best, Steve
