" is going to download source code for current when you uncomment the " #src-all " line. If you're intending to follow current, that's fine. But, if you're going for 4.10 or 5.2.1, then you need a different default tag line. Until you go through the makeworld sequence, it won't bite you, on second thought, it probably will. Below is the supfile that I use: *default tag=RELENG_5_2 *default host=cvsup15.FreeBSD.org *default prefix=/usr *default base=/usr *default release=cvs *default delete use-rel-suffix #src-all ports-all tag=. #doc-all I would suggest using sysutils/fastest_cvsup. You can either do a pkg_add -r, or build it from the ports. If you just installed FreeBSD, I would do a src-all to get all the latest patches, and after that to get new patches Other than that, you're just using bandwidth. There are more changes going on in the ports, so you would be upgrading there the most. Be sure to read usr/src/UPGRADING and usr/ports/UPGRADING.

Depends on whether you want to update the OS as
well as the 3rd party software ("ports").
also is this configuration decent, in your opinion
*default host=cvsup5.FreeBSD.org

*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup

ports-all tag=.
#src-all (pending feedback)
Hmm, never used seperate tags in the same
SUPfile, but I guess that cvsup is smart enough
to do that, considering what it does do.
For a discussion of the release tags, see the "Cutting
Edge" chapter in the FreeBSD handbook[1].
Please do note that you most likely *want* to
use "tag=." for ports, but *not for source*. You
probably want the latest releases of ports, but
it's not nearly so likely you want to be running
HEAD/CURRENT on your system

DaleCo, S.P.
[1]For 4-STABLE, for example, your cvsup app should
be looking for src files tagged "RELENG_4".

If you want STABLE its RELENG_4 only. I don't think RELENG_5 exists as a valid tag but I could be wrong. I've heard elsewhere that using a non-existent tag may leave you with an empty/usr/src so this is consistent with what you've described. If all you want to do is track 5.1 REL with security errata (a.k.a security branch) use: tag=RELENG_5_1 I used this for some time before upgrading to 5.2.1 which uses: tag=RELENG_5_2 I've found that occasionally the cvsup process will hang because the particular mirror I've chosen is having problems or there's network congestion, etc. Try another mirror with the correct tag and let us know what happens.

RELENG_4 will update you to 4-STABLE (the future 4.10 if there's one).

Wisdom would say you to have only one cvsup file for ports like this : *default host=cvsup16.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=. *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress ports-all please use *default compress unless you have a goo connection. ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Absolutely not. > BTW, the error is "don't know how to make buildworld" which is > understood, as there is no Makefile being cvsup'd. That makefile is /usr/local/etc/cvsup/src/Makefile, I suspect.

You also get the full list when you use "make index". Make will die at the first port that is missing and so you can't have ports in your refuse file. BTW, if you do this everytime, you might as well add "ports/INDEX" to your ports-all refuse file. There isn't any reason to re-transfer a 3.05 MB file when you are going to create it as soon as you finish cvsuping.
