Quoting Manolis Kiagias <son...@otenet.gr>:


A quick visit to http://update.freebsd.org does not show this directory
- although this maybe intentional. I suggest you try the server change
and if you connect but still fail to get the key, then go on and hack
the script. I don't have a 6.1 machine around, but freebsd-update is
just a sh script and you should be able to find what's going on.  There
is nothing hardcoded in it, at least in the version distributed with
7.x. In fact I would try running the 7.x version on this system.


Hi Manolis,

thanks for the reply! I have simply copied over the freebsd-update script from a 7.0 machine and it seems to work fine just as on the 7.0 machine. I have run a fetch without making any changes to the conf file, I haven't applied the updates as yet as its a production server and I'll need to schedule down time and work out a fall back plan if anything goes bad when doing an install.
Thanks again!

Andy.
