It's not just the hostname I'm basing it off of, it's the error message: ~ $ sudo pkg_add -ui quirks-2.52 signed on 2015-02-14T12:43:06Z Error from http://ftp.hostserver.de/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/amd64/curl-7.40.0.tgz ftp: connect: No route to host It's using ftp. I'm not familiar with how package management works with OpenBSD, so I don't know if this is a weird quirk of the pkg_add command or if he's not setting his package source properly. > > Also, yes, I believe sudo only carries over the environment variables > explicitly told to do so. > > Can you download packages with a web browser?
