I normally get the SHA256 from the main site:
ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.9/packages/amd64/SHA256
Then I download from a mirror. However, 4.9 is missing the SH256 package for amd64 (had to slightly alter the FTP URL because I am less than 5 posts):
Code:
[~]ftp ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.9/packages/amd64/SHA256

I am just curious whether the file name changed or different hashing algorithm is used. I am trying to save bandwidth of the master site, by not downloading from it.
