What is your PKG_PATH? Please post the output of:
Code:
$ echo $PKG_PATH
Your nameserver probably is your router. You could try to change your /etc/resolv.conf into
Code:
# nameserver 192.168.1.1
nameserver 208.67.222.222
nameserver 208.67.220.220
These are the OpenDNS nameservers.

$ echo $PKG_PATH

should be an improvement on cat(1).

Apparently when I type the command echo $PKG_PATH


PHP Code:
echo $PKG_PATH
[1] 23113
ksh: PKG_PATH/ no found
#

[1] + Done    echo

I use a simple script to set and export the PKG_PATH variable.

Code:
# Set PKG_PATH and PKG_CACHE
# $Id: PKGenv,v 1.2 2009/01/11 12:29:54 j65nko Exp $ 

# ------------------------------
# IMPORTANT use "." to source this script!!!
#
#    . ./PKGenv
# ------------------------------
# The PKG_PATH variable needs to be set
# and exported in the current shell/xterm !

# 'sh ./PKGenv' will not work! 

if [ "$(id -u)" -ne  0 ]; then 
    echo PKGenv : Remember you are not ROOT !! 
fi

# ---- VERSION or RELEASE
VERSION=snapshots
VERSION=4.4

# --- Architecture
ARCH=amd64
ARCH=i386

# -- from man pkg_add (1)
# If the environment variable PKG_CACHE is set, every package retrieved
# from a distant location will also be copied here.

# -- make sure the PATH ends with a '/' !
PKG_CACHE=/home/packages/
export PKG_CACHE
mkdir -p ${PKG_CACHE}

# -- make sure the PATH ends with a '/' !
PKGDIR=pub/OpenBSD/${VERSION}/packages/${ARCH}/

# -- sites
export    alberta=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/${PKGDIR}
export    stacken=ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/${PKGDIR}
export       plig=ftp://ftp.plig.org/${PKGDIR}
export   hostfuss=ftp://mirror.hostfuss.com/${PKGDIR}
export      calyx=ftp://ftp.calyx.nl/${PKGDIR}
export      nluug=ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/${PKGDIR}
export      plato=scp://plato.utp.xnet/home/packages/
   
# -- for testing
#for site in alberta stacken plig hostfuss calyx nluug plato; do
#    eval echo \$${site}
#done

# -- actual setting and export 

#PKG_PATH=${PKG_CACHE}:${alberta}

PKG_PATH=${plig}
export PKG_PATH

You source it like this
Code:
$ . ./PKGenv

Most of us put this in our .profile for Bourne based shells:

export PKG_PATH=ftp://<my.nearest.mirror>/pub/OpenBSD/<release>/packages/<arch>/

Or we put this in our .cshrc for C based shells:

setenv PKG_PATH ftp://<my.nearest.mirror>/pub/OpenBSD/<release>/packages/<arch>/

Jggimi, I wrote this script for snapshot packages testing. For snapshots I always had to replace <my.nearest.mirror> with
<my.nearest.mirror.which.has.completely.rsynced.wi th.ftp.openbsd.org>


By storing the ftp sites in variables named 'plig' or 'stacken', I can easily do things like this
Code:
# export PKG_PATH=${stacken}
# echo $PKG_PATH
ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/amd64/
To reuse the already downloaded packages on host plato
Code:
# export PKG_PATH=$plato:$PKG_PATH

# echo $PKG_PATH
scp://plato.utp.xnet/home/packages/:ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/packages/amd64/
@Nk2Network

You also can place two ftp sites in your PKG_PATH. If one happens to be temporarily out of service, or the name cannot be resolved in DNS, then the other one will be used:
Code:
# export PKG_PATH=$plig:$stacken

# echo $PKG_PATH
ftp://ftp.plig.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/amd64/:ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/amd64/

Because I always become root to add packages, I have it in root's home directory "/root".
Code:
j65nko@hercules[~]su - root
Password:
Terminal type? [xterm] 
root@hercules[~]mv /home/j65nko/PKGenv.txt PKGenv
You then source the script with the shell's "." command.
Code:
root@hercules[~]. ./PKGenv

Which error? I noticed you edited your post, but you still have not shown us exactly the command you typed, and which error message it produced

Set the PKG_PATH to ftp.openbsd.org in Alberta, Canada with:
Code:
# export PKG_PATH=$alberta
Does the pkg_add command work then?

Nk2Network, It is clear that you cannot comprehend our instructions.. perhaps it might be worth reading the FAQ in your language of choice.

This will save us from repeating instructions in frustration.

Take care.

@BSDfan666: I see progress in the posts. Besides, I understand French

Nk2Network,:

If you use ssh to login to another machine you have another login session.
The PKG_PATH setting is local to your login session. For example :
Code:
j65nko@hercules[~]. ./PKGenv                  
PKGenv : Remember you are not ROOT !!
------------------------------------
OpenBSD 4.2 (GENERIC) #1179: Tue Aug 28 10:37:50 MDT 2007
    deraadt@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC
Current settings
------------------------------------
PKG_CACHE=/home/packages/
PKG_PATH=ftp://ftp.plig.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/amd64/
------------------------------------
j65nko@hercules[~]echo $PKG_PATH
ftp://ftp.plig.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/amd64/
When I now ssh in to host 'parmenides' on my local LAN the PKG_PATH will not be inherited by the ssh login session on 'parmenides'.
Code:
j65nko@hercules[~]ssh j65nko@parmenides.utp.xnet
Last login: Mon Jan 12 01:28:58 2009 from hercules.utp.xnet

[snip]

Welcome to OpenBSD: The proactively secure Unix-like operating system.

[snip]

j65nko@parmenides[~]echo $PKG_PATH

j65nko@parmenides[~]exit
Connection to parmenides.utp.xnet closed.
As you see the PKG_PATH set in the xterm on host 'hercules' was not transported, or inherited by the new ssh login session on host 'parmenides'.
But it still is set on 'hercules':
Code:
j65nko@hercules[~]echo $PKG_PATH
ftp://ftp.plig.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/amd64/
j65nko@hercules[~]
I wonder if it could be a DNS issue. What is the output of?
Code:
$ dig ftp.plig.org
Does it show the IP address of ftp.plig.org?

Does it help if you specify the complete package name: pkg_add -vv gimp-2.4.6p1.tgz ?

I will guess that you have a much more basic problem, one of connectivity.

If your network is functioning properly, this:

$ ftp ftp://ftp.plig.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/

Should give you an ftp> prompt at your mirror. Does it?

Hello,

I'm not misinformed about the problems I think my problem is dnsd,Manual network config via "ifconfig" it shows more thoroughly the properties of network connections.

PHP Code:
# ifconfig
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33204
        groups: lo
        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 00:c0:9f:35:a5:c2
        groups: egress
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex)
        status: active
        inet6 fe80::2c0:9fff:fe35:a5c2%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
        inet 192.168.1.12 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255
enc0: flags=0<> mtu 1536
# 

In the file /etc/resolv.conf default gateway: 192.168.1.1 (nameserver 192.168.1.1), the same IP address is assigned to my Internet access providers to configure the router.Modem is connected has a network (switch) 5 port currently 2 computer log
