CVSUP Mirror

FreBSD 4.10 Release
CVSUP-MIRROR v. 1.3_2  freshly installed.

I got the cvsup-mirror port installed without any errors. The CVSUPD daemon 
is running. I can connect to my mirror from another server. When I try to 
update a ports collection (i.e. ports-editors) is will spit out the error:

"Collection "ports-editors" release "cvs" is not available here"

I did not specifiy any of the default collections during the install (i.e. 
src, www, gnats) because all I want to make available via cvsupd is the 
ports collections. However, since the install never asked me anything about 
ports, I'm hesitant that I have not properly made them available via cvsup.

I've been throught the FreeBSD Handbook, and the "cvsup.org" website - 
absolutely no help at all. I've also searched through the 
/usr/ports/net/cvsup-mirror directory just to find absolutely no 
documentation whatsoever.

All I want to do is run a mirror so I can keep the ports trees on my other 
BSD servers up-to-date.

Can you please help me?

-just a little frustrated
