Just my personal preference, but in a file called supfile.de, I have
current release=ksrc-common host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=ksrc-i386 host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=ksrc-arm32 host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=src host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=othersrc host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=bmake host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=include host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=security host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
current release=doc host=netbsd.wifo.uni-mannheim.de hostbase=/mit/ftp/pub/NetBSD base=/usr prefix=/usr compress use-rel-suffix delete
and then I do
sup -v supfile.de >& sup.log
at a csh prompt.
Hope this helps,
Patrick
