Dear Sir,

seriously sorry for any noise I may have caused today. It has been a
complete oversight on my part. I did search actually the wrong
locations in this case. Searching the forums and also the mailing
list. In stead i have should have not only looked at the man page of
installurl but as pointed out the man page of pkg_add.

Lesson learned ; I am just glad to be up with my daily driver again.

I truly am thankful for the kind the support of this great community.



Kind regards,

eelco van der Vlugt
