Help Please ... Question on cvsupit

Hello,

	I have been trying for the last few days to figure out how to update
the ports collection via the cvsup process. I have two different books on
FreeBSD version 5.x and both say to use this "cvsupit" program but I cannot
find it any where. I have FreeBSD release 5.3 install and created a user
account that I can "su" in. I would like to be able to update the ports
collections and FreeBSD source so that I can custom compile various ports
and FreeBSD. Does any one have any idea where the "cvsupit" program is. I
have tired installing "cvsup-16.1h" and "cvsup-without-gui" via both
pkg_add, sysinstall, and the ports make/install process but I still cannot
find this "cvsupit" program.

	Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I am still learning FreeBSD so I
probably missing something simple some where?

Thanks for your help,
Andrew
