Well the:

[root@cheetah ~]# mv /var/db/freebsd-update /var/db/freebsd-update.9.2
[root@cheetah ~]# mkdir  /var/db/freebsd-update

Would have done the same thing...

DNS should be fine... appears to be:

[michelle@cheetah /usr/home/michelle]$ dig update.freebsd.org

And actually it'll do this:

[michelle@cheetah /usr/home/michelle]$ host -t srv
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 40 80 update6.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 50 80 update5.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 5 80 update3.freebsd.org.
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org has SRV record 1 35 80 update4.freebsd.org.

Which actually returns this:

[michelle@cheetah /usr/home/michelle]$ host -t srv
_http._tcp.update.freebsd.org | sed -nE "s/update.freebsd.org (has SRV
record|server selection) //p" | cut -f 1,2,4 -d ' ' | sed -e 's/\.$//' |
sort
_http._tcp.1 35 update4.freebsd.org
_http._tcp.1 40 update6.freebsd.org
_http._tcp.1 5 update3.freebsd.org
_http._tcp.1 50 update5.freebsd.org

You'll note however, that now...

[michelle@cheetah /usr/home/michelle]$ sudo freebsd-update -r
9.3-RELEASE upgrade
Password:
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found.
Fetching metadata signature for 9.2-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Fetching 2 metadata files... done.
Inspecting system... done.

The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed:
kernel/generic world/base world/doc

The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed:
src/src world/games world/lib32

Does this look reasonable (y/n)? y

Fetching metadata signature for 9.3-RELEASE from update.FreeBSD.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Fetching 1 metadata patches. done.
.
.
etc..

So what ever was broken is not now... and it still says "Looking up
update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... none found."

Thanks for trying...

I'm glad it worked itself out, I've seen posts like these multiple times before. It could be that you tried downloading the upgrade while devs/maintainers were working on updating the files on the server(s).

About the "...not found" message, I'm only aware of DNS to be causing this issue, but it's definitely not limited to that.
