What cvs-supfile Directive did I Leave Out?

[Fred Condo]

Have a look at /usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile

You probably want something like this:

*default host=cvsup15.us.freebsd.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6_2
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-all
