The Handbook mentions the availability of binary patchkits for releases that fix security problems and major bugs. I understand fully that the Handbook can be out of date at times, but this would be really helpful, as I manage a fleet of FreeBSD appliances scattered across the country. Each appliance includes an auto-update utility that brings my software up to date, and it would be great if I could send along a package that would also bring FreeBSD up to date simultaneously. Does anyone currently maintain such patchkits, or can someone suggest an easy way of creating them? I've thought of many ways of doing this, but they are all pretty difficult and cumbersome. This is the one thing Windows has over FreeBSD... Thanks in advance for your help. --Aaron Namba ------=_NextPart_000_0000_01C24456.700F91E0 Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name="smime.p7s" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="smime.p7s" MIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAqCAMIACAQExCzAJBgUrDgMCGgUAMIAGCSqGSIb3DQEHAQAAoIIFujCCAnow ggHjoAMCAQICAwf4TTANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCBkjELMAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdl c3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTESMBAGA1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMQ8wDQYDVQQKEwZUaGF3dGUxHTAbBgNVBAsT FENlcnRpZmljYXRlIFNlcnZpY2VzMSgwJgYDVQQDEx9QZXJzb25hbCBGcmVlbWFpbCBSU0EgMjAw MC44LjMwMB4XDTAyMDcyNTE4MDg0N1oXDTAzMDcyNTE4MDg0N1owQjEfMB0GA1UEAxMWVGhhd3Rl IEZyZWVtYWlsIE1lbWJlcjEfMB0GCSqGSIb3DQEJARYQYWFyb25AbmFtYmExLmNvbTCBnzANBgkq hkiG9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEAuIHASXr7mhsnJ76/wCkJALF7ySQyPQ4QPenycysDfQpiQ1XP 6l5GS2VCThFMjERmDCVsxU7evL/y1Bro+W9+hufvzIVwkgAVgfHUMrcmpyYYim+N/hxPH4tAohpr GiWUIlCn+mIVEmC3qhDZlOUk+brHhbS+e3QMghqRCb53zEMCAwEAAaMtMCswGwYDVR0RBBQwEoEQ YWFyb25AbmFtYmExLmNvbTAMBgNVHRMBAf8EAjAAMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBAKtLF/3fT1s8 pNaeHOKvs8eNX+298T/NfpT10acAwJHKW2iua4vr2HVn7a22zePNVgi8CzRrIClZHDEjawzQO9Ri Z/hffG/exznX7ub78ri0UsQjr3VncNC6KGqd0poQ/qdg97T5elONDlZZIdLW3qiM6x2ZeBpAHq2Z GzTcIyXjMIIDODCCAqGgAwIBAgIQZkVyt8x09c9jdkWE0C6RATANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADCB0TEL MAkGA1UEBhMCWkExFTATBgNVBAgTDFdlc3Rlcm4gQ2FwZTESMBAGA1UEBxMJQ2FwZSBUb3duMRow GAYDVQQKExFUaGF3dGUgQ29uc3VsdGluZzEoMCYGA1UECxMfQ2VydGlmaWNhdGlvbiBTZXJ2aWNl cyBEaXZpc2lvbjEkMCIGA1UEAxMbVGhhd3RlIFBlcnNvbmFsIEZyZWVtYWlsIENBMSswKQYJKoZI hvcNAQkBFhxwZXJzb25hbC1mcmVlbWFpbEB0aGF3dGUuY29tMB4XDTAwMDgzMDAwMDAwMFoXDTA0 MDgyNzIzNTk1OVowgZIxCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYDVQQIEwxXZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxEjAQBgNV BAcTCUNhcGUgVG93bjEPMA0GA1UEChMGVGhhd3RlMR0wGwYDVQQLExRDZXJ0aWZpY2F0ZSBTZXJ2 aWNlczEoMCYGA1UEAxMfUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgUlNBIDIwMDAuOC4zMDCBnzANBgkqhkiG 9w0BAQEFAAOBjQAwgYkCgYEA3jMypmPHCSVFPtJueCdngcXaiBmClw7jRCmKYzUqbXA8+tyu9+50 bzC8M5B/+TRxoKNtmPHDT6Jl2w36S/HW3WGl+YXNVZo1Gp2Sdagnrthy+boC9tewkd4c6avgGAOo fENCUFGHgzzwObSbVIoTh/+zm51JZgAtCYnslGvpoWkCAwEAAaNOMEwwKQYDVR0RBCIwIKQeMBwx GjAYBgNVBAMTEVByaXZhdGVMYWJlbDEtMjk3MBIGA1UdEwEB/wQIMAYBAf8CAQAwCwYDVR0PBAQD AgEGMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBBAUAA4GBADGxS0dd+QFx5fVTbF151j2YwCYTYoEipxL4IpXoG0m3J3sE Obr85vIk65H6vewNKjj3UFWobPcNrUwbvAP0teuiR59sogxYjTFCCRFssBpp0SsSskBdavl50Oou Jd2K5PzbDR+dAvNa28o89kTqJmmHf0iezqWf54TYyWJirQXGMYICqjCCAqYCAQEwgZowgZIxCzAJ BgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYDVQQIEwxXZXN0ZXJuIENhcGUxEjAQBgNVBAcTCUNhcGUgVG93bjEPMA0G A1UEChMGVGhhd3RlMR0wGwYDVQQLExRDZXJ0aWZpY2F0ZSBTZXJ2aWNlczEoMCYGA1UEAxMfUGVy c29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgUlNBIDIwMDAuOC4zMAIDB/hNMAkGBSsOAwIaBQCgggFlMBgGCSqGSIb3 DQEJAzELBgkqhkiG9w0BBwEwHAYJKoZIhvcNAQkFMQ8XDTAyMDgxNTE5MjIzNVowIwYJKoZIhvcN AQkEMRYEFJGomvouA/9R6tHo724CCL1IoGHPMFgGCSqGSIb3DQEJDzFLMEkwCgYIKoZIhvcNAwcw DgYIKoZIhvcNAwICAgCAMAcGBSsOAwIHMA0GCCqGSIb3DQMCAgEoMAcGBSsOAwIaMAoGCCqGSIb3 DQIFMIGrBgkrBgEEAYI3EAQxgZ0wgZowgZIxCzAJBgNVBAYTAlpBMRUwEwYDVQQIEwxXZXN0ZXJu IENhcGUxEjAQBgNVBAcTCUNhcGUgVG93bjEPMA0GA1UEChMGVGhhd3RlMR0wGwYDVQQLExRDZXJ0 aWZpY2F0ZSBTZXJ2aWNlczEoMCYGA1UEAxMfUGVyc29uYWwgRnJlZW1haWwgUlNBIDIwMDAuOC4z MAIDB/hNMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBAQUABIGAY/4p5kJDh22G7wJkIjlM1YIvmc3RQyV9s9vRdKrjAKSb EE5WlNO7T+5nA6Q9xAZuFnHf6nZ27dBb+PfrQto3xCYMvmx9jSK855C2R4rFFe5FERk63tWQPglU 6jmfuAznT7JmdvX2ZsBh5jeMJ32JBBtkBWhiD2Ea0mNFESBtDIUAAAAAAAA= ------=_NextPart_000_0000_01C24456.700F91E0-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
