<p><em>Contributed by &a.jkh; and &a.gclarkii;.</em>

SUP is a network based software update tool developed at CMU. The
|
|
purpose of this document is get the beginner up and running with sup.
|
|
|
|
<sect1><heading>Configuration<label id="sup:setup"></heading>
|
|
|
|
<p>SUP gets the information it needs to run from a configuration file
|
|
called a supfile. There are different example supfiles provided
|
|
for different source releases of FreeBSD. The
|
|
<url url="file:/usr/share/examples/sup/standard-supfile"
|
|
name="/usr/share/examples/sup/standard-supfile"> file, for example,
|
|
contains sup information for the latest standard FreeBSD source
|
|
distributions - it tells sup what collections it will be updating
|
|
and/or installing and where they go. Someone using this particular
|
|
supfile is said to be supping <ref id="current" name="-current">.
|
|
<p>For ports, please have a look at
|
|
<url url="file:/usr/share/examples/sup/ports-supfile"
|
|
name="/usr/share/examples/sup/ports-supfile">.<p>
|
|
If you are interested in obtaining the
|
|
<url url="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi" name="CVS"> files
|
|
that make up the source tree, refer to
|
|
<url url="file:/usr/share/examples/sup/cvs-supfile"
|
|
name="/usr/share/examples/sup/cvs-supfile">.<p>
|
|
If you would rather track changes to the -stable branch, refer to
|
|
<url url="file:/usr/share/examples/sup/stable-supfile"
|
|
name="/usr/share/examples/sup/stable-supfile"> instead.
|
|
|
|
If you are inside the United States, you may also uncomment
|
|
the `secure' and `eBones' collection lines to grab the DES code.
|
|
If you are outside the
|
|
U.S., you should NOT sup this code from sup.FreeBSD.ORG as this will
|
|
violate U.S. export restrictions. Instead you should use the
|
|
<url url="file:/usr/share/examples/sup/secure-supfile"
|
|
name="secure-supfile"> in the sup examples directory. This will
|
|
connect you to the international sup site that contains a secure distribution.
|
|
Any distributions you do not wish to receive can be commented out
|
|
with a # at the beginning of the distribution line.
|
|
|
|
Please consult the file
|
|
<url url="file:/usr/share/examples/sup/README"
|
|
name="/usr/share/examples/sup/README">
|
|
for a list of alternate sup servers. The default sup server (sup.FreeBSD.ORG)
|
|
listed in the above example files is currently overloaded and any traffic
|
|
that can be transfered to a different host will help relieve some of
|
|
the strain.
|
|
|
|
Once this is setup, you are ready to go. To start sup type:
|
|
<verb>
|
|
sup supfile
|
|
</verb>
|
|
If you wish to see what sup is doing "verbosely", give it the -v option,
|
|
like so:
|
|
<verb>
|
|
sup -v supfile
|
|
</verb>
|
|
Thats all there is to it! Remember that if you are running current,
|
|
which is what you will have if you sup with the standard-supfile, please
|
|
join the &a.current . You should also be sure to read
|
|
<ref id="current" name="Staying current with FreeBSD">
|
|
for important information on just what we can and cannot do for you as
|
|
a -current user. If you are using the stable-supfile, please
|
|
join the &a.stable and read
|
|
<ref id="stable" name="Staying stable with FreeBSD">.

|
|
<p>If you want to keep updated on the original source of the ports,
|

you can also add this to your supfile. But note that this collection
|
|
is <em>enormous</em>, and unless you are an ftp site mirroring the

|
entire FreeBSD tree (but cannot use ``mirror'' for some reason), you
|
|
(and us) are much better off not using sup to collect these:
