Hello everyone.
I've been able to get cvsup working the way I want as far as ports are
concerned. I've setup my refuse file the way I like it and it has been
working perfectly. I dont get the ports for games, audio and such on my
mail server now. :)
Anyway, a question on cvsup and refuse file ran through my mind today
regarding this and I wanted to post it here.
What do you do if you need to change your refuse file to allow or disallow
new ports?
For example, lets say I setup a brand new server and dont use any refuse
file. Thus, I just download the entire ports tree altogether. Now lets say,
I want to not get certain ports each time I cvsup the tree. What do you
need to do to get this working correctly? DO i just add or remove the ports
in the refuse file as needed? Or is there something else.
Do I need to do any type of index updating (assuming I do not have
portupgarde installed).
Just something I thought about today and wanted to ask.
Thanks,
Jason
