You can always use cvs to checkout the ports tree with tag RELEASE_4_6_0, although I also thought that cvsupping with that same tag would work. The ports are indeed already tagged according to http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/Makefile?only_with_tag=RELEASE_4_6_0 But just one quick question: why do you really need the *exact* ports tree for 4.6? I'd think the current ports tree is better - ports get upgraded all the time, there's nothing special about the ports tree at the tagging moment.

Instead of altering their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit their views ... which can be very uncomfortable if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering. -- Doctor Who, "Face of Evil" [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9Bg9+Y3r/tLQmfWcRAg+RAJ0c8d5j9WMH7B48nWVY4L8czSi1GACeJG44 aLDfjwcEk49Apr9aNWj48dI= =rfb3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
