New description:

 I am a digital forensic examiner for the Orlando Police Department.

 The system was configured several years ago but I believe that Darwinports
 was installed. I am not sure which version.

 I have recently upgrade a MacBook Pro from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I
 installed the new version of Xcode. I need to upgrade the system to
 process two iPhones in a case we are working.

 I have tried several times to upgrade to the current version of MacPorts
 but receive this error message:

 {{{
 jXXXXX-computer:~ jXXXXX$ sudo port -v selfupdate
 Synchronizing from rsync://rsync.darwinports.org/dpupdate/dports
 @ERROR: Unknown module 'dpupdate'
 rsync error: error starting client-server protocol (code 5) at
 /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-40/rsync/main.c(1398) [receiver=2.6.9]
 Error: /opt/local/bin/port: selfupdate failed: Couldn't sync dports tree:
 sync failed doing rsync
 }}}

 I attempted to install the DMG package which instructed me to upgrade the
 MacPorts to 1.7.1

 I attempted to do this but because I am now running Snow Leopard the older
 upgrades will not install do to the OS version not matching.

 How can I upgrade my system.

 Thank you in advance.
