      Hi,

      I'm trying to update from 2.3.2 to the newest version.  However, the update keeps failing when trying to download packages from pkg.pfsense.org.  Is it supposed to be using pkg.pfsense.org?

      dig pkg.pfsense.org @ns1.netgate.com
      

      …gives:

        that is never going to work because pkg.pfsense.org is not a A record its SRV record..

        Dig for
        _http._tcp.pkg.pfsense.org

        or

        dig _https._tcp.pkg.pfsense.org

        example

        dig _http._tcp.pkg.pfsense.org SRV

        ; <<>> DiG 9.11.2 <<>> _http._tcp.pkg.pfsense.org SRV

          Thanks for the quick reply and explanation.  I didn't realized it was using a SRV record.  I'm likely seeing a localized issue since I see now that it fails (randomly) on different packages.  Sorry for the noise.
