# freebsd-update -r 7.1-RELEASE upgrade Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found. Fetching public key from update1.FreeBSD.org... failed. No mirrors remaining, giving up. The getting of the public key seems to be the issue no matter how i go about trying to upgrade .. so my question now is, why is this and are there other mirror sites that can be used ? Below is my Uname -a output if it has any relevance..
