    hi
    2 questions pls.

    1.I happened to come across a fairly fast mirror while
    doing a CVSup.
    How can I configure make to use this mirror (as a
    first preference over ftp.freebsd.org) while making
    apps from ports.

    2. Instead of using cvsup to upgrade the ports tree,
    is there a command to upgrade a specific port, say,
    XMMS.

    thanks
    Tk
