I've just reinstalled FBSD 4.8 from the mini-iso on an old box (PII-133 w/ 3
GB on two hd's). The problem I'm running into is that my ports are looking
for old, outdated packages, I think.

So going from
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.htmltried
to install cvsup to do a port upgrade:

mrwilhelm# pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui
Error: FTP Unable to get
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.8-release/Latest/cvsup-without-gui.tgz:
File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access)
pkg_add: unable to fetch '
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.8-release/Latest/cvsup-without-gui.tgz'
by URL
mrwilhelm#

Same problem though, how can I tell my system where to get access to
the 4.8stuff?

Marty
