Quoting gui gui <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

| Edwin, hi. A few days ago you replied to my cry for
| help suggesting I try ports instead of actual compiles.
| Like I mentioned to you, my ports system is giving me
| trouble, but my compile is not working and nobody has
| been able to help me yet.
| So I am back to the ports idea...here is the deal.
| the machine is a freebsd 4.4 "virtual machine" on a
| hosted server. This means I get the minimum install
| and only like 150 extra megabytes of free space.
| Because of this the ports tree is not local.
| Now, I am trying to add packages, but I keep getting
| errors. Any package I add fails (at one point they
| worked, but I dont know what it is that broke since then)
| Here is what I get

Try a simple 
# ftp ftp.freebsd.org
ftp> cd /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4-stable/All
ftp> get courier-imap-1.4.3.tgz
 
Once downloaded use pkg_add.

I hope it is configured the way you need it.  I have no idea that is why
I prefer to compile it from ports, but you have a difficult situation.

I hope this works for you,

ed
