CVSUP'ing specific directories in ports/source

People,
I've been an OpenBSD user for some time now, and I've started using
FreeBSD, and I'm having an issue converting over. In FreeBSD, to update my
ports tree I run:
$ cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile
Where ports-supfile is a file dictating where to grab the files from and
which ports 'packages' to get (ie. Ports-devel). On OpenBSD I was able to do
this:
$ cvsup -d anoncvs at wiretapped.net:/cvs get ports/net/samba #OR
$ cvsup -d anoncvs at wiretapped.net:/cvs get src/usr.sbin/sendmail
(Note this worked for the current release, if I wanted older releases, I
added -rOPENBSD_3_0 for 3.0 for example)
to get *specific* ports or directories from CVS.
How can I do this in FreeBSD? (I've tried, with no luck) Do I need a
specific server to support this sort of CVSUP'ing?
I'm not subscribed, so I'd appreciate any replies were CC:ed to me. :)
Thanks in advance.
