Hi,

cvsup-mirror is for running your own cvsup server to distribute FreeBSD
files to others.  You probably just want to use cvsup with an appropriate
supfile - usually based on one of the samples in /usr/share/examples/cvsup.
Also see Ch 19 of the handbook for lots of details on setting this up:

Cheers,

	Scott
