/root/standard-supfile exists.

cvsup is not installed:

%su
Password:
pcbsd# cvsup -g -L 2 /root/standard-supfile
cvsup: Command not found.
pcbsd# whereis cvsup
cvsup:
pcbsd# whereis csup
csup: /usr/bin/csup /usr/share/man/man1/csup.1.gz
pcbsd# csup -g -L 2 /root/standard-supfile
Parsing supfile "/root/standard-supfile"
Empty supfile
pcbsd

csup is saying the supfile is empty. All i've done is find the fastest
server. Didn't backup de supfile before finding the fastest server so I
don't know if it's removed any lines. This is the supfile:

# $FreeBSD: src/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile,v
1.23.4.4.2.12007/11/25 06:32:51 kensmith Exp $
#
# This file contains all of the "CVSup collections" that make up the
# FreeBSD 6.x-STABLE source tree.
#
# CVSup (CVS Update Protocol) allows you to download the latest CVS
# tree (or any branch of development therefrom) to your system easily
# and efficiently (far more so than with sup, which CVSup is aimed
# at replacing).  If you're running CVSup interactively, and are
# currently using an X display server, you should run CVSup as follows
# to keep your CVS tree up-to-date:
#
#    cvsup standard-supfile
#
# If not running X, or invoking cvsup from a non-interactive script, then
# run it as follows:
#
#    cvsup -g -L 2 standard-supfile
#
# You may wish to change some of the settings in this file to better
# suit your system:
#
# host=CHANGE_THIS.FreeBSD.org
#        This specifies the server host which will supply the
#        file updates.  You must change it to one of the CVSup
#        mirror sites listed in the FreeBSD Handbook at
#        http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/mirrors.html.
#        You can    override this setting on the command line
#        with cvsup's "-h host" option.
#
# base=/var/db
#        This specifies the root where CVSup will store information
#        about the collections you have transferred to your system.
#        A setting of "/var/db" will generate this information in
#        /var/db/sup.  You can override the "base" setting on the
#        command line with cvsup's "-b base" option.  This directory
#        must exist in order to run CVSup.
#
# prefix=/usr
#        This specifies where to place the requested files.  A
#        setting of "/usr" will place all of the files requested
#        in "/usr/src" (e.g., "/usr/src/bin", "/usr/src/lib").
#        The prefix directory must exist in order to run CVSup.

# Defaults that apply to all the collections
#
# IMPORTANT: Change the next line to use one of the CVSup mirror sites
# listed at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/mirrors.html.
*default host=cvsup3.nl.freebsd.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6_3
*default delete use-rel-suffix

# If you seem to be limited by CPU rather than network or disk bandwidth,
try
# commenting out the following line.  (Normally, today's CPUs are fast
enough
# that you want to run compression.)
*default compress

## Main Source Tree.
#
# The easiest way to get the main source tree is to use the "src-all"
# mega-collection.  It includes all of the individual "src-*" collections.

# These are the individual collections that make up "src-all".  If you
# use these, be sure to comment out "src-all" above.
# These are the individual collections that make up FreeBSD's crypto
# collection. They are no longer export-restricted and are a part of
# src-all
