I'm running a fresh install of 4.8 from the mini-iso and would like to install samba. Have d/l'd samba-3.0.10
which is the uncompressed samba-latest.tar.gz and copied this into my /usr/ports/distfiles.


When I go to /usr/ports/net/samba and make build I get:

# make build
>> samba-2.2.8.tar.bz2 doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/.

fetch: http://us3.samba.org/samba/ftp/old-versions/samba-2.2.8.tar.bz2: Operation timed out


I gather that my samba port is too old. How can I do the make build && make install using the latest version.

You have to use cvsup to get the latest ports, therefor you need /net/cvsup then you need to use a cvsup file to download the ports here's mine:
/
*default tag=.
*default host=cvsup.nl.freebsd.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/var/db
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress


ports-all release=cv/

than just run: cvsup -l 2 -g <path_to_supfile>

for more info: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html

and when it's done just run a make install clean again.

An other option is using net/portupgrade but I'm not a fan of that ...
