No. cvsup (in the base system) stores in /usr/sup. Here, let me make an outline tree: csup (in base system): stores CVS data in /var/db/sup cvsup (in ports system): stores CVS data in /usr/sup csup (in ports): not sure where it stores the CVS data All of this assumes the user DOES NOT override the defaults. Further proof: $ which csup /usr/bin/csup $ ls -l /var/db/sup total 4 drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 2 Oct 01:38 ports-all/ drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 8 Oct 01:33 src-all/ -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
