Ok, last night I went through and removed every file and folder I  
could find and then reinstalled, and tried the .bash_profile to add  
the path. Now DP is installed and runs, though when I go to install  
fox or glut it seems to be trying to get them from opendarwin.org .  
Naturally, it just runs through those 4 servers over and over again.  
One odd thing is it's trying to fetch the file XFree86-4.5.0- 
src-3.tgz or XFree86-4.5.0-src-4.tgz , and tries to fetch it for  
either of my attempted installs. When I look in my sources.conf file,  
I see things pointed at rsync://rsync.darwinports.org/dpupdate/ 
dports . Am I correct that this(where the port is looking for the  
file) is something set server side?
