Sorry for being too terse in my first post. Seems like I should have a =
closer
look at freebsd-update. "Of course" I have lines like this in my =
/etc/make.conf
on each machine that I update from sources:

	SUP_UPDATE=3D		yes
	SUP=3D			/usr/bin/csup
	SUPFLAGS=3D		-g -L 2
	SUPHOST=3D		cvsup2.de.freebsd.org
	SUPFILE=3D		=
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile
	PORTSSUPFILE=3D		/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile

And yes, guilty of never ever re-evaluating that mechanism since FreeBSD =
2.x.
The only change I ever made was replacing cvsup with csup, once the =
latter
became available. And I did not know "make update" had a default without
any configuration.
That's why I ask stupid questions about whatever it is people use =
nowadays.

Thanks,
Patrick
