System: NetBSD erik-be.uni-c.dk 1.4J NetBSD 1.4J (ERIKBE) #251: Sun Aug 15 10:56:03 MEST 1999 erik@erik-be.uni-c.dk:/sw/NetBSD/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/ERIKBE i386


>Description:
	The file pkgsrc/mk/mk.conf.example shows several settings that may be put
	into /etc/mk.conf, incl. references to several mirrors of ftp.NetBSD.Org.

	These entries includes settings for MASTER_SITE_LOCAL and MASTER_SITE_BACKUP
	pointing to ftp.dk.netbsd.org, which in turn points to sunsite.auc.dk.

	Sunsite.auc.dk has, however, removed the NetBSD mirror some time ago,
	apparently caused by lack of disk space.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
	One of three (which are not all under the control of NetBSD):

	- Reconstruct the mirror on sunsite
	- Make a new NetBSD mirror in Denmark and let ftp.dk.nebsd.org reference this
	- Delete ftp.dk.netbsd.org from mk.conf.example and dns.

	Of course the last alternative is not ideal :-(
