First time running cvsup

Hi Ion,

Tks for your advice.

Freebsd5.2

Noted with tks

> My /etc/ports-supfile is:
> *default host=cvsup3.FreeBSD.org
> *default base=/usr
> *default prefix=/usr
> *default release=cvs tag=.
> *default delete use-rel-suffix
> ports-all

What will be the difference between
*default host=cvsup3.FreeBSD.org
and
*default host=cvsup10.FreeBSD.org
