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!!! ____________________________________________________________________ ** Get your free E-Mail account at WWW.DIGITELONE.COM **
