--=-0OXKiofva9DyDs4P6MOn Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi Adam, Thanks for the reply! For clarity's sake, and as I've not done this before, please let me know if I'm understanding this correctly. Here's what I make of the suggestions of how to proceed: # rm -R /usr/ports # cd /usr/share/examples/cvsup; cvsup ports-supfile # cd /usr/ports; portsdb -Uu # pkgdb -F Please let me know if the above procedure is that which your instructions say. Thanks again.
