Funny you should ask, I was toying with that just yesterday, as a matter of fact.


Works well with pkgng, it lets me create static packages of already installed ports:
# pkg create -nao /usr/ports/packages/All


Then creating the repo.txz file for use by clients is rather easy"
# pkg repo -qf /usr/ports/packages


And then, on your client host:
# /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf
