In the ports-supfile, you have a lines like *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr I can't recall exactly what they specifiy individually, but if you set them both, for example, to `/usr', then the ports tree would be installed in /usr/ports. You need to do nothing more to ``make'' or ``install'' the ports tree. gh ps: Covered in FreeBSD Handbook, Appendix A section 5 ``Using CVSup''.
