I don't know where the defaults in the cvsup man page come from,
because the example ports-supfile, I think, looks something like
this (This is actually my ports supfile, but I think it agrees in
the "*default entries" in the sample port-supfile):



# Defaults that apply to all the collections
*default host=cvsup5.freebsd.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
*default delete

ports-all

So base=/usr. I guess CollDir, in this case, becomes
sup/ports-all or something. Anyway, this is my
/usr/sup/ports-all/refuse file. 


ports/chinese
ports/german
ports/japanese
ports/korean
ports/russian
ports/vietnamese

It keeps me from getting unwanted ports.

Good luck.

Greg
