I just ran "make extract" in /usr/ports/databases/postgresql74-server
and got postgresql-base-7.4.6.tar.bz2 and postgresql-opt-7.4.6.tar.bz2
from ftp3.us.postgresql.org without any problems.
Are your connections going through a proxy or some other device
that might be interfering with your downloads? Have you tried other
download programs like wget, curl, or (nc)ftp?
