Hi Dave, You can download the source code tarball here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/posixtest/files/ Whenever you want to fetch the distfile for a FreeBSD port, just cd into the port directory and type: make fetch e.g.: cd /usr/ports/misc/posixtestsuite && make fetch Most ports will fetch their distfile into /usr/ports/distfiles (or a subdir of that), except for certain tools that require a manual download. Hope that helps, Greg - -- Greg Larkin http://www.FreeBSD.org/ - The Power To Serve http://www.sourcehosting.net/ - Ready. Set.
