In FreeBSD, to update = my ports tree I run: $ cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile=20 Where ports-supfile is a file dictating where to grab the files from and which ports 'packages' to get (ie. Ports-devel). On OpenBSD I was able = to do this: $ cvsup -d anoncvs@wiretapped.net:/cvs get ports/net/samba #OR $ cvsup -d anoncvs@wiretapped.net:/cvs get src/usr.sbin/sendmail (Note this worked for the current release, if I wanted older releases, I added -rOPENBSD_3_0 for 3.0 for example)=20 to get *specific* ports or directories from CVS.=20 How can I do this in FreeBSD? (I've tried, with no luck) Do I need a specific server to support this sort of CVSUP'ing? I'm not subscribed, so I'd appreciate any replies were CC:ed to me. :) Thanks in advance. /avant
