Hello, Checking on my own box (running 4.1), $PKG_PATH echoes ; ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/packages/i386/ # uname -a OpenBSD ############## 4.1 GENERIC.MP#1225 i386
I have export PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/packages/i386/ Set in my .profile, and it works for me. >From the error message you are getting, it seems it cannot find the host ftp.openbsd.org... Can you connect to it from a command line (i.e ftp ftp.openbsd.org)? Also, make sure that your uname -r corresponds with the version directory for the ftp path... Simon.
