I read through the handbook about how to make the supfile and refuse files and placed them in /usr/local/etc/cvsup/ Now when I try to enter the command cvsup I get command not found. Actually I cannot find any file anywhere by this name. I did however find the file /usr/bin/cvs which requires parameters I do not understand and are not covered in the cvs section of the handbook. I did get the following command to work: cvs -d /usr/local/etc/cvsup init This created a CVDROOT folder with many files. I still dont know how to make this program update my ports. Seems every port I have is so old it cant even find the files to download since many new versions have been released. I am using 3.3-Stable My supfile contains the following: *default host=cvsup6.freebsd.org *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress *default tag=RELENG_3 src-all Any help is appreciated To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
