I'm a little confused.  I built a 4.3-R system about 2 months ago and then
cvsup'ed the sources and made a custom kernel.  I also d'loaded the
appropriate sources and built a custom version of Apache with associated
modules.  As I remember it, all of my sources were in /usr/src, just like
the handful of other times I have done this similar task.  I have not
cvsup'ed the sources since (that I remember).  However, I do cvsup the ports
tree nightly.

Today I was reading about the telnetd exploit and attempted to patch my
system following the instructions on freebsd.org but I could find no sources
in /usr/src.  However, I did find a directory /usr/src/usr.sbin.  This
directory appears to contain all of the sources (including the Apache
sources) that I used previously.

So I have some questions.  Is this correct? And if not, what is the best way
to fix this?  Should I just delete the whole section and cvsup again?  If I
cvsup again, do I need to rebuild my world and kernel instead of just
installing the patch?  And finally, any speculation on how I might have
gotten things out of whack?

Thank you for your help.

Drew
