Recently I upgraded two servers to 8.4 and implemented the pkgng system.

Is portmaster not the appropriate method for updating ports with pkgng?
It depends whether you're talking about *building* packages from the ports
tree or installing binary packages.
As for building from ports, Portmaster doesn't care whether you're using
the new PNGNG or the old pkg_* tools.
Thanks. That's good to know.
Now, when I run portmaster -ad, it seems to keep reinstalling the same
ports over and over again.
That's strange. Perhaps PKGNG hasn't been initialised properly on your
system(s), that's all I can think of at the moment. Did you use pkg2ng?
I'm pretty sure I did, but I ran it again. I noticed several errors which
I will have to investigate.
