Ah seems like FTP as well as Samba is blocked after the upgrade....   =0A=
=0AI have ran FreeBSD 7 to 7.2 using the freebsd upgrade process painless i=
n the past, however.. =0A=0AHave followed the instructions for upgrade 7.2 =
to 8.0-P3 from the FreeBSD website.  As I am not a FreeBSD guru all I can s=
ay is the update process is NOT a smooth process as per EVERY OTHER O/S in =
the open source market.  I appreciate the support you have given but whatev=
er you suggest just doesn't work.=0A=0AI am very angered being lead in to b=
elieving freebsd-update will be the able to update your OS - this isn't the=
 case.  Does FreeBSD want to be a "fanatics only" OS?  No other OS's seems =
to have no such problems updating.   I have even offered access to my serve=
r to sort out the problem but no one has offered.   I just get cut/copy ema=
ils in reply that doesn't work.  After 5 years of painless usage perhaps I =
ought to look at another better support OS?=0A=0A=0A=0A____________________=
