Well maybe its not that its to insecure maybe they just couldn't work out how to patch or use CVSup for the source tree, which doesn't really surprised me, while all the main Linux dists have single command automagic live internet updates such as debian,redhat and mandrake, FreeBSD is still stuck with source patches. I personally don't find it very convienient either and as I get less and less time for these things I am now tempted after all these years with FreeBSD to go to a Linux dist just for that, I will miss ports tho if I do. But I have been looking at methods such as a single patch machine and a system wide rsync with sshkeys, but all my machines are out of version sync. Rackspace are a kind of a bad deal anyway. Just go to rackshack and pretend the new linux machine is FreeBSD :) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kenneth P.
