I have a bandwidth manager running on FreeBSD 4.9 LOCAL. I want to

through enough manuals to get assistance on which commands I should
run to install the ports hierarchy. I have even tried using the
cvsup utility but I get an error: "Parsing supfile "ports-supfile"
Release not specified for collection "host=cvsup.FreeBSD.org". It
doesn't matter which host I use, the response is still the same.
Is there something I'm doing wrong or missing out. Will really
appreciate prompt response.
P.S. Can someone please recommend a FreeBSD book for dummies.
Thanks

Try something like this in your ports supfile:
*default release=cvs tag=.
Refer to /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile for a valid ports
supfile.
