I used the RELENG_3_2_0_RELEASE tag, as outlined in http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html. Tonight, a mere 12 days later, I did the very same cvsup again. Strangely enough, it's checking out all the files!! Since I can't see why any files would have changed in a 6-month old release version of FreeBSD, I'm puzzled as to why they're being checked out. The only thing I can think of is that the release tag I'm using is incorrect - but all the sources I've checked (including the seemingly authoritative one above) all say the same thing. Any help would be appreciated. -- Matthew Emmerton GSI Computer Services +1 (800) 217-5409 (Canada) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
