crontab question involving cvsup

[Joshua Tinnin]

OK, I have searched the archives, and I can't find that my question has 
been answered previously, but please forgive me if that's incorrect.

I'm using (or rather trying to use) cron to update my ports tree daily. 
I've tried several different combinations without success, and lately 
this is what I have in my crontab file:

/usr/local/bin/cvsup -g -L 2 /home/krinklyfig/supfiles/ports-supfile 
&& /usr/local/bin/portindex && /usr/local/sbin/portsdb -u

It runs as root once a day. What appears to be happening is that the 
cvsup is happening, but portindex is not, and because of the latter 
portsdb -u doesn't either. The reason I know cvsup is working is 
because portindex indicates that the ports tree has been updated if I 
run it manually later, but running portversion before manually running 
portindex will not indicate any changes. The cron log doesn't show 
anything but the commands being executed. So, my question is: is this 
type of command valid, or should each command be separate? Or is it not 
working for some other reason?
