Frank,

you must install it from source via the Pkgscrc system. Do this on commands 
line as root *after* you've installed pkgsrc:

echo 'ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES+=ms-ttf-license' >> /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf
cd /usr/pkgsrc/fonts/ms-ttf/
bmake install clean

You should become familiar with Pkgsrc, because there are not binaries for 
every package. The binaries on ftp://packages.stura.uni-rostock.de are 
compiled packages from Pkgsrc.

You could have a look here: 
http://wiki.dragonflybsd.org/index.cgi/HowToPkgsrc?highlight=%28HowTo%29 and 
here: http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/software/packages.html .

If you have more questions about Pkgsrc, please ask ;-)
