FreeBSD is available via anonymous FTP. That means that you use the login "anonymous" and your email address as a password. There's a list of FTP mirrors at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html You copy the files via whatever method your FTP client supports. Typically, a modern web-browser can handle an ftp:// URI and you can drag-and-drop the files. But you didn't even mention what platform you're using. Incidentally, there's a lot of stuff on the FTP site, and you're not going to know what to download without consulting further resources. The FreeBSD handbook is a good place to dive in. -- Adam Fabian ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
