I want to upgrade my ports tree, so I did whats on the Handbook. I'v copied and edit the file - ports-supfile. I ran the command cvsup -g -L 2 /path/to/ports-supfile And it gave me the following error: Parsing supfile "/usr/home/deadline/things/ports-supfile" Release not specified for collection "host=cvsup1.freebsd.org" I tired to change the mirror site, Also i tried to uncomment one of the packages, and I tired to add ports-all to end of the entries, but all gave the same error, any ideas? tips? please. This is my ports-supfile entries: host=cvsup1.freebsd.org *default host=cvsup1.freebsd.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress ports-all PS: This command will run as a background proccess? if i disconnect from internet and I connect again later (Dialup) it will resume the updating? or i have to download it one time? -- Marwan Sultan
