Errr... I hope you mean 4.7-RELEASE --- I don't think there was ever a
2.7 release, although there was a 2.2.7 one upon a time.

As I remember, the cvsup example files were accidentally left out of
4.6-RELEASE, but that was corrected very quickly and they've been in
all subsequent releases.

See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/share/examples/cvsup/
for the CVS entries.  If you've got the full system sources installed,
you'll find copies in /usr/src/share/examples/cvsup, or you can use
cvsup to pull down good copies.  To solve the chicken-and-egg problem
I've just posed you, use this sup-file:

    *default host=cvsup3.freebsd.org         # Choose a server that's close
    *default base=/usr
    *default prefix=/usr
    *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_7
    *default delete use-rel-suffix
    src-all

'tag=RELENG_4_7' will get you the latest patchlevel of 4.7-RELEASE.
'tag=RELENG_4' will get you the latest 4-STABLE.  'tag=RELENG_5_0'
will get you 5.0-RELEASE and 'tag=.' will get you the latest 5-CURRENT

        Cheers,

        Matthew
