Hi,
If you are getting host not found it either meants that the hostname it is
looking up e.g. www.freebsd.org is wrong or does not exist. You might also
want to check /etc/resolv.conf. If you are just using wget to download one
file try the FreeBSD command "fetch" which is similar for single files
