Things look quiet here. But I've been doing a lot of blogging at
dan.langille.org because I prefer WordPress now.
Not all my posts there are FreeBSD related.
I am in the midst of migrating The FreeBSD Diary over to WordPress
(and you can read about that here).
Once the migration is completed, I'll move the FreeBSD posts into the
new FreeBSD Diary website.

Installing cvsupd
6 August 1999
|
|
|
cvsupd is the cvsup daemon. cvsup is a system for
upgrading and maintaining source trees. This article shows how I installed cvsupd.
The original article is at Setting up a FreeBSD mirror site
but I suggest you ignore that part. Actually, I'm not sure why/how cvsupd
stopped working. I suspect user error. So perhaps that original article will
work. I don't know. |

the install
|
Well, seeing as I had all the port skeletons installed, I
just had to do the following:
cd /usr/ports/net/cvsupd-bin
make
make install
|
|
|
Running it
|
As shown in the original article, Setting up a FreeBSD mirror
site, to start cvsupd, issue the following command:/usr/local/etc/rc.d/cvsupd.sh
To verify that cvsupd is running:
# ps -auwx | grep cvsup
cvsup 301 0.0 3.5 1436 476 ?? Ss 9:15AM 0:00.17 /usr/local/sbin/cvsupd
-e -C 8 -l @daemon -s sup.client
root 308 0.0 3.3 1560 440 p3 R+ 9:15AM 0:00.03 grep cvsup (bash)
