Comment 3 for bug 444209

Michael

sure, I can tell you verbatim, when I get home, but basically I get an error
that it cant authenticate on of the download sites on My list and it closes,
I tried to add that site based on some commands I found in a forum but it
reports that there is no token to update. I also tried the command u
requested, but it still pulls up the pkg manager or else it reports a
similar error that it cant run the updates, and then it will just quit out.
Or it tells Me that it cant upgrade from 9.10 to 9.04 which seems a little
backwards. is there any way, short of a fresh install to back out or back
down to 9.04?

thanks for your time!!
