--- Comment #2 from Jessica Clarke <jrtc27@freebsd.org> ---
I'm loathe to add yet more dialogs to the mess that netconfig already is. C=
an
these at least be gated behind a "Do you need a proxy to access the interne=
t?"
question that defaults to No?

Needing an FTP proxy also points out how antiquated we are in using FTP rat=
her
than HTTP to download from the mirrors. Surely in this day and age we should
use the latter and confine FTP downloads to the dustbin of history?
