What you probaby need to do is either:

1. Go to "Options" in the main menu of sysinstall, and change "Release Name=
" to 4.2-RELEASE.  THe ports are the same for the entire 4.x branch, so you=
 will be OK

2. Use cvsup to sync your ports tree.  If find this the easiest, anyway, bu=
t it's all a matter of taste.  To install cvsup:

cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup
make all install clean

You can find documentation on cvsup at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/cvsu=
