Default Re: pkgin - fetch failure/ Not logged in

The server is seems to working properly now - I've managed to download the file with my browser.

If I encounter "file not found" or "no access to ftp" problem, I go to
1a. Official NetBSD FTP site: ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/i386/5.1/All/
1b. FTP Search engine, such as "Mamont" - mmnt.ru/int/ and search exactly for "policykit-0.9nb7.tgz"
2. Manually download needed file with a web browser or command line utility (ftp, wget, curl...).
3. If this file is a package, I just issue "pkg_add policykit-0.9nb7.tgz" and restart the xfce4 installation.
4. If this file is a source, it have to be moved to /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles and restart compilation process.
