I don't think that was the problem because the file was downloaded
but the download interrupted before it completed.

I had a similar problem, in my case it was a firewall
issue. I'm not sure exactly what port does, but it
appears to use FTP rather than HTTP downloads? And
the browser will do HTTP downloads. FTP in passive
mode will connect to some random port (it's like
1000-2000 or something) on the server, which means
your firewall has to allow outgoing connections to any
of those possible ports.
The easiest thing is to allow outgoing connections to
any port (which isn't that dangerous, but my normal
firewall setup is very restrictive) do your port
installs, then restore your normal firewall settings.

Hi.
I'm trying to install tetex, but when ports try to
fetch it the
download is somehow interrupted and it tries the
other download
locations that also fails the same way. I can
however download the
file from within Safari or any other web browser
from the same
servers that ports tried. Can I let ports use the
file I manually
downloaded instead of trying to download it?
