  • Can;t update pkgin?

    From Kurt Weiske@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 15 20:34:04 2021
    I'm loading up MINIX 3.2.1 for the first time, and when I run pkgin update, it looks like it's failing making the FTP connection to ftp.minix3.org.

    When I try connecting manually via an FTP client, the banner states that it's a closed system and anonymous access isn't allowed.

    Is there another system out there hosting the pkgin repository?

    Thanks!

    I'm running 3.4, and my /usr/pkg/etc/pkgin/repositories.conf contains
    the single line:
