pkg_add problems with connecting

[Mr-Biscuit]

THis is part of my laptop install problem and this belongs here.

I have dhclient up now
and have exported the PKG_PATH variables.


ftp> nlist kde.tgz /var/tmp/pkg.00412b
SIGPIPE!
pkg_add: short write: Broken pipe
cd
sigpipe again
p_a chdir failed

on and on until
pkg_add: no pkg found for 'kde' , sorry.


Exporting 5.0. 5.0_2008Q4 5.0_2009Q1 all produce the same output.
It crashed after an attempted install of xfce4 from Q1.

I have everything in in /usr/pkg/bin

Why?
Do I need to mv or cp for theer to be a link in /usr/localORbin?

Oh, and what is the NetBSD substitute directory for local?
