The odd thing is that for some ports it works and for some it doesn't, so I don't think is an authentication problem. > If all else fails you can try the FETCH_CMD variable in /etc/make.conf > and change it to use ftp, wget etc. Yes, I'm trying that also; the problem is that, if I use: FETCH_CMD=/usr/bin/ftp FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS=-v some fetching fails because ftp gets passed an -S option (I presume for the files that have the new SIZE in the distinfo). The same for axel, etc. The hole infrastructure is based on the assumption FETCH_CMD=/usr/bin/fetch ( and FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS=ARr ) and I found no way to override passing '-S'. > Oh, not sure if that was a typo above but it should be: > MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE?= > ftp://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/${DIST_SUBDIR}/ Why ? ${DIST_SUBDIR+DIST_SUBDIR/} will expand in DIST_SUBDIR with an ending '/' if $DIST_SUBDIR is set and will be blank otherwise. If I use ${DIST_SUBDIR}/ the ending slash will be added even if the distfile is in /usr/ports/distfiles/ (== pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles/) e.g. pub/FreeBSD/ports/distfiles//my_distfile and the fetch will fail. Theoretically on the 'host' machine I should have all the distfiles, so I want all downloads to be made from there. I don't remember what the '?=' means.
