Please note that this solution applies specifically to those sites which are running cvsupd to mirror the cvs repository and the www sites. I don't think you can directly apply this solution to sup'ing your ports collection.

In particular: http://www.polstra.com/projects/freeware/CVSup/faq.html#refuse-where For sup'ing the files for a cvsup repository, this is how cvsup is invoked: cvsup -1gL 1 -c sup.client -h cvsup-master.freebsd.org supfile.non-crypto The key is the -c parameter. Reading the FAQ, the refuse file must be "sup.client/refuse". The full pathname is /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup.client/refuse. Within this file I have the following: doc/es* doc/ja* doc/ru* doc/zh* doc/fr* ports/german* ports/japanese* ports/korean* ports/russian* ports/vietnamese* www/es* www/ja* www/ru* www/zh* data/es* data/ja* data/ru* data/zh* www/data/es* www/data/ja* www/data/ru* www/data/zh* src/share/doc/es* src/share/doc/ja* src/share/doc/ru* src/share/doc/zh* This stops all foreign language items. I can't see a demand for that within New Zealand and I feel that saving the bandwidth is a higher priority than completeness. cheers. -- Dan Langille - DVL Software Limited The FreeBSD Diary - http://www.freebsddiary.org/freebsd/ NZ FreeBSD User Group - http://www.nzfug.nz.freebsd.org/ The Racing System - http://www.racingsystem.com/racingsystem.htm unix @ home - http://www.unixathome.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
