Can someone PLEASE answer my question without asking me more questions ? Is there a way to change the reconnect time or not ?
Not without modifying the source code to cvsup. What I recommend you do is add the '-1' flag to your cvsup command line -- so cvsup will try once to pull down the updates and then exit. Then you can use a trivial bit of shell scripting to try again if the first attempt failed, although you should try to cvsup from a different server if you need to retry. eg. #!/bin/sh CVSUP=/usr/local/bin/cvsup CVSUPFLAGS=-1 -g -L2 /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile CVSUPSERVERS=' cvsup.xx.freebsd.org cvsup.yy.freebsd.org cvsup.zz.freebsd.org ' OTHERCMDS=portsdb -Uu && portupgrade for $h in $CVSUPSERVERS ; do $CVSUP -h $h $CVSUPFLAGS && \ $OTHERCMDS && \ break done Note: untested code intended only as an outline of what you might do -- will need some work before suitable for serious use.
