|

You need to have cvsup installed. Check if you do with the following comand:
user@host#which cvsup
this should give you somethink like: '/usr/local/bin/cvsup'
If not check the ports and install cvsup.
Then you need to make a sup file.
You can find an example at /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
this is my version:
*default tag=.
*default host=cvsup.nl.freebsd.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/usr
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
ports-all
Put the above text in a file called 'supfile'.
Now you can update the ports collection by typing (as root):
cvsup supfile
And sitback and wait and wait and wait (this might take a while) |
