So, grab the package from one of the ftp mirrors. Look in something like
ftp://ftp10.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/packages/net
You will find a pre-built version that you don't have to build all of the 
auxillary files. FWIW, I built it on a much slower computer than yours in 
about an hour.

Your system date is off. Set the time with date. Get your system squared away 
and try using cvsup again. You will find it makes using the ports much 
easier.
