Sir when I tried to add pkg it gives me an error no address associated with name?!

Hi Reh. I would check two things in this case. Make sure your OpenBSD has a working network configuration meaning an IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default route, Valid DNS Servers. If that is all working correctly. I would then check in the file "/etc/installurl" It should when configured properly contain the URL of a package mirror. In some cases this file can get misconfigured during the install like when you don't configure the network or if you choose to install the sets from local media as opposed to the Internet. If the file is blank here is a list of mirrors to choose from. www.openbsd.org/ftp.html Here is a working one make sure to add the path to where the packages are stored on the mirror server. As an example you might place this in the /etc/installurl file. "cdn.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/7.0/packages/amd64/" You have to of course customize this for your system. This one is for an amd64/x86_64 bit CPU and the OpenBSD 7.0 release. As I said though the exact package URL your system needs may vary. Hope that helps and thank you for watching my videos!
