Hello,

I am trying to set up CVSup on a box running FreeBSD
4.4. When I ran "make world" everything worked
fine...as far as I know. After that, I ran the
following commands:
# make clean  -to clean up after make world (is this
correct??)
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/config
# make depend all install clean  -to synchronize
kernel modules 

This also seemed to work fine. When it was done. I
noticed that the /usr/ports/ directory had less
directories than before, and the categories that did
remain have very few (if any) ports in them any more.
Also, when I try to run "make search key=xxxx" I get
an error saying "make: don't know how to make search.
Stop". I don't really know what I did wrong. From my
understanding of the process, aren't *all* ports, the
source, and documentation supposed to be updated
(depending on the entries in the cvsup-config file you
use, of course)? I was under the impression that
anything that was updated would replace the old and
anything untouched would not be removed...is this
correct? Any ideas on what I did wrong? Here is the
applicable sections of my cvsup-config file and my
refuse file:

cvsup-config:
(--clipped--)
# Defaults that apply to all the collections
# IMPORTANT: Change the next line to use one of the
CVSup mirror sites
# listed at
http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html.
*default host=cvsup7.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default prefix=/usr
# The following line is for 4-stable.  If you want
3-stable or 2.2-stable,
# change "RELENG_4" to "RELENG_3" or "RELENG_2_2"
respectively.
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix

(--clipped--)
# The easiest way to get the main source tree is to
use the "src-all"
# mega-collection.  It includes all of the individual
"src-*" collections.
# Please note:  If you want to track -STABLE, leave
this uncommented.
src-all
ports-all
doc-all


--file: /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/refuse--

src/etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc*
ports/chinese
ports/french
ports/german
ports/hebrew
ports/japanese
ports/korean
ports/russian
ports/ukrainian
ports/vietnamese



Any comments are appreciated...thanks in advance...
