If you have the port locally as a package, you only have to add the 
package from the directory containing the package using something like

pkg_add "full package name including extension".

Pkg_add doesn't care about the proxy. Most of this is convered in the 
Handbook.

Sysinstall sort of bypasses the port system and causes problems later. 
Using the port system immediately doesn't have any problems. You may 
have to fight getting cvsup to work through your proxy but that is all 
I can think of.

You just have to have a /usr/ports/INDEX that is consistent with your 
packages. In order to maintain the ports, you have to be able to cvsup 
ports-all and remake INDEX.
