You don't say what directory you are in when you type the CTM command. What I do (with 2.2-stable): % cd /usr/CTM/src-2.2 # this is where my incoming src-2.2 CTM's go % cat /usr/src/.ctm* # see how current I am % ls -lt | head # see how far behind I am % ctm -u -b /usr/src list_of_what's_missing I do the same thing for ports. Notice I use -b to set the "base" directory, where ctm will update. If that directory is empty and you start with an *Empty* then it should fill appropriately. Suggest you start with an empty base directory. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
