Is there a method by which I can access the source code of ports through FreeBSD? I am currently running FreeBSD 8.0 as a Guest OS on VMware player (host is win 7).

Hi Dave,

You can download the source code tarball here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/posixtest/files/

Whenever you want to fetch the distfile for a FreeBSD port, just cd into
the port directory and type:

make fetch

e.g.:

cd /usr/ports/misc/posixtestsuite && make fetch

Most ports will fetch their distfile into /usr/ports/distfiles (or a
subdir of that), except for certain tools that require a manual download.

Hope that helps,
Greg
