freebsd-update

Hello!

I am trying to do a freebsd-update -r 9.1-RELEASE upgrade.

Code:
# freebsd-update -r 9-1-RELEASE upgrade
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 4 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 9.0-RELEASE from update4.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Inspecting system... done.

The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed:
kernel/generic src/src world/base world/doc world/games world/lib32

The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed:

Does this look reasonable (y/n)? y

Fetching metadata signature for 9-1-RELEASE from update4.freebsd.org... failed.
Fetching metadata signature for 9-1-RELEASE from update2.freebsd.org... failed.
Fetching metadata signature for 9-1-RELEASE from update5.freebsd.org... failed.
Fetching metadata signature for 9-1-RELEASE from update3.freebsd.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.

I have tried doing dig update5.freebsd.org, which works, and I can ping it. I have tried using other DNS-servers (8.8.8.8), and this box is not behind a firewall. Any ideas? Currently running 9.0-RELEASE.
 
First time I see that command...I'll try it

It's freebsd-update -r 9.1-RELEASE upgrade.

Today, trying to update-upgrade from 9.0-RELEASE to 9.1-RELEASE, after I typed the following command freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.1-RELEASE, and after the terminal issued the following:

Code:
Preparing to download files... 
etching 37377 patches.....10....

Applying patches... done.
Fetching 8650 files... 
Fetching 8650 files... failed.

Then something is wrong, I don't know what is it.

But the command I used is the one I have encountered everywhere in forums and pages, and so on. Not the way you type this command here.

I'll make a probe, I expect to fix this problem; if I can't do that I'll ask for your help.

Otherwise, thanks.
