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.
