Is there some way that I can tell portupgrade to pass the -p flag to fetch? This doesn't make any sense unless you meant to say deny *in*bound traffic. If you really are denying outbound TCP, you need to configure an FTP proxy, and configure fetch to use whatever that supports. This may mean switching fetch from passive (the default) to active ftp. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
