Ok great.

Hopefully someday selfupdate can work over https:

https://github.com/macports/macports-base/pull/184

Unfortunately for now it only operates over rsync, so if you cannot use rsync on your network then you cannot use selfupdate. You can use "sudo port sync" to update the ports collection periodically and you can subscribe to the macports-announce mailing list to learn when new releases of MacPorts base are made, and then download the installer for that version from our web site.
