Howdy.  Well, it does not go very far:

make update
Error: Please define either SUP_UPDATE or CVS_UPDATE first.

My normal routine is to run cvsup then if warranted, either upgrade individual 
ports or run portupgrade if I have done a major update.   I have never ran a 
"make update" from the root of the port tree previously (at least not 
recently in any case).

The non commented out lines in my supfile are:

-------
*default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix

*default compress
------

I've updating the ports tree using:

cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile

Is there any major difference between "make update" and running cvsup directly 
(as instructed to in the FreeBSD handbook)?

Cheers
