To update the ports tree (assuming you're running 3.0, installed from CD)
using cvsup.

which tag do you use in your sup file?

OpenBSD-ports tag=.

or

OpenBSD-ports tag=OPENBSD_3_0

or

OpenBSD-ports tag=OPENBSD_3_0 TRACKING_SWITCH

I'm running stable. I used the tab=. one and recompiled php4 from ports
but i want to make sure that's correct as the documentation on what each
of those tags does is a little vague.


Thanks.
Clint
