    What you did can not work.

    cvsup for forts doesn't take much even on modem.

    `make fetch` in the ports/category/name will get you the right distfile.

    # fetch-recursive-list - Show list of files that would be retrieved by
    # fetch-recursive.
    # fetch-required-list - Show list of files that would be retrieved by
    # fetch-required.

    would give you also the dependencies for a given port.
