Hello.
I have installed FreeBSD 7 at home and at work.
I have not internet connection at home.

Questions:
1) where can i download all port collections?
2) how can i update system if i have not internet connection at home?

I think i can explain my problems. Sorry for my bad english.

Read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/...rts-using.html pretty much addresses all the standard questions about ports.

If you don't have an internet connection what you need to do is place all the source packages into /usr/ports/distfiles/ before "make"ing/upgrading the packages. This way the script will find the source locally and no network connection needed.
