Hi again,
I am pretty sure that Adam is right about the version mismatch. I
used sysinstall to update the ports tree and had to change options from
8.0-RELEASE-p3 to 8.0-RELEASE. Cvsup deleted the ports tree. Don't know
if I have to change the RELENG_8 to something else.

# This file contains all of the "CVSup collections" that make up the
# FreeBSD-current ports collection.
#
# 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 ports-supfile
#
# If not running X, or invoking cvsup from a non-interactive script, then
# run it as follows:
#
# cvsup -g -L 2 ports-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/ports" (e.g., "/usr/ports/devel", "/usr/ports/lang").
# 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=cvsup5.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/var/db
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_8
*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
## Ports Collection.
#
# The easiest way to get the ports tree is to use the "ports-all"
# mega-collection. It includes all of the individual "ports-*"
# collections,
#ports-all
# These are the individual collections that make up "ports-all". If you
# use these, be sure to comment out "ports-all" above.
#
# Be sure to ALWAYS cvsup the ports-base collection if you use any of the
# other individual collections below. ports-base is a mandatory collection
# for the ports collection, and your ports may not build correctly if it
# is not kept up to date.
#ports-base
#ports-accessibility
#ports-arabic
#ports-archivers
#ports-astro
#ports-audio
#ports-benchmarks
#ports-biology
#ports-cad
##ports-chinese
#ports-comms
#ports-converters
#ports-databases#
#ports-deskutils
#ports-devel

ports-x11-fm
ports-x11-fonts
ports-x11-servers
ports-x11-themes
ports-x11-toolkits

Will keep trying.
I can't download email right now on this program, so I'm not using text
from the other emails.
I'll keep in mind hal and 'AEI'and 'ADD', Warren.
Thanks again,
