I have tried both cvsup.freebsd.org and cvsup.nl.freebsd.org with both
csup and cvsup and I get checksum mismatches on all attempts.

I have deleted /usr/sup/src-all/* bun that did not fix the checksum  
errors,
just gave me a lot of SetAttr messages the first run.
If you mean my c{v}sup config file, that hasn't been changed in years  
and
how would an error in that file cause errors on src-all but none on  
ports-all ?

I am stumped, as far as I can tell it's no local config problem, but  
what's causing it?
I have no idea..
Am I the only one seeing these errors ?
