I don't know about the reboot, but you should always use the head "." tag f=
or=20
ports (note that's a period without the quotes). Ports don't follow release=
s=20
the way the system does and using anything other than the head tag will jus=
t=20
delete your entire ports tree. The port itself will determine the proper=20
configs for your system.

My /etc/cvsupfile-ports is as follows:

*default  host=3Dcvsup6.freebsd.org
*default  base=3D/usr
*default  prefix=3D/usr
*default  release=3Dcvs
*default  delete use-rel-suffix
*default  compress
ports-all tag=3D. <-------- Use the head tag.

Change the default host to whatever is closest to you.=20
