I completed the BSD 5.3 instllation on my Dell Desktop using the first CD of 
the 4 CD set. I installed all the ports and distributions in the first CD. But 
when I tried to 'make install' emacs from the /usr/ports/editors/emacs20 
directory I get a lot of messages which says 'Attemting to fetch from :<ftp 
site name> : No address record
And finally an error message which says:
   Couldn't fetch it - please try to retrieve this port manually into 
usr/ports/distfiles and try again
Error code 1
Same is the case with other softwates and utilities.

I don't have FTP configured on my computer. Do I have to get the CVS repository 
installed? If so please give me the instructions or a link. Is it necessary 
that I install the rest of the CDs?
