I decided to installed FreeBSD 6.2 in my laptop (I dont have internet connection) and now I want to install apache and other software. So, I downloaded ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports/ports.tar.gz and copy to my laptop to update ports. How do I update ports from the file? Right now, I have an old version of Ports, portsnap fetch does not work because I do not have internet connection, and FreeBSD does not recognize my netowrk card reader, so I want to do it by hand , step by step. Any tip how to do update? Should I just unzip the file in /usr/ports , but previosly delete everything??? Thanks Anderson
