You'll propably need to use cvsup to do this. If you dont 
have it installed in your system you can install it from 
the ports.

As root do :
# cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup-without-gui/
# make install clean && rehash


then you can view and edit this file to give you an 
overview of what you need to do.

# more /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile


then after that you can copy it to anywhere yo want and 
edit it in my case i ussualy put it in tmp but you can put 
the config file where ever you wish.

# cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile 
/tmp/ports-sup
# cd /tmp && cvsup -g -L 2 ports-sup

This is what you need for the cvsup file.. just edit the 
"*default host=" to which ever cvsup mirror is closer to 
your location

example :

# Ports update sup file..
*default host=cvsup1.us.freebsd.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=.
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
ports-all


hope this helps...


btw Welcome to the FreeBSD World!!!
