Hi there,

I have a cron job that auto-cvs-updates the /usr/ports directories.

I want to update the portsdb and pkgdb as soon as cvsup has completed its
work.  I am using the following two commands to do this.  am I doing the right
thing?

---- snip ---

/usr/local/sbin/portsdb -uU
/usr/local/sbin/pkgdb -Fa

--- snip ---

cheers,

Noah
