FreeBSD 6.1 Flash Intallation

I followed these steps and other tips, but nothing seems, to work....

and once I can get on my machine (I am at work at the moment) I can copy and paste what is going on into this forum..

http://www.freebsdwiki.net/index.php/Flash

pkg_add -r linuxpluginwrapper

cd /usr/ports/*/linux-flashplugin7;make install

its at that point I can go no further, because fetch attempts to well, fetch a file that doesnt exist, is unavailible....

if there is a better way, could someone let me know?
