Thanks. That did the trick. Unfortunately, I am not |
| 21 |
able to pull from portage due to an authenticated |
| 22 |
firewall being in the way. (We tried the instructions |
| 23 |
for the proxy, but it didn't work.) Any how, for |
| 24 |
anyone interested, you can also get the software from |
| 25 |
the following link: |
