I have figured out what was wrong with my /etc/hosts file and I have
CVSup running now.
Here is my supfile constructed following the example in the handbook:
*default tag=.
*default host=cvsup3.us.FreeBSD.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/var/db
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
src-all
I also have a refuse file as in the handbook to avoid downloading
every language.
I will be sure to ask again if I run into any more problems. Thank
you for your help!

I have just installed FreeBSD 5.3 and I am trying to get the latest
firefox, 1.0.3,1, and pkg_add -r firefox gives me 0.9. something and
downloading the latest source and typing make install clean gives me
some wierd patch-250862 failed error. I saw someone else mention
using cvsup to update the firefox source so I tried that. Now cvsup
gives me Cannot get IP address of my own host -- is its hostname
correct?. I am behind a firewall and I don't know what I should set
my hostname to; the ip address is of course given to me by DHCP.

look at /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ and use (edit first!) the ports-file
from there to update your ports-collection
then a /usr/ports/www/firefox/ ; make install clean
did you try that ?
