Hey Robert,

This error indicates that you are having some sort of connection issues,
I for instance get it when  I forget to use our work proxy, here are
some steps you can try to remedy the problem:

1) Can you resolve update1.FreeBSD.org? 
2) Can you ping update1.FreeBSD.org? 
3) Can you telnet to update1.FreeBSD.org on port 80?

That should give you a idea on what the problem is.

Rudi

Im getting the followng error from freebsd-update fetch

Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found.
Fetching public key from update1.FreeBSD.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.

Can anyone shed any light on why the public key is failing.
