I've downloaded the 8.11.6 patch from sendmail.org, and used the instructions they provided [patch -p0 < /PATH/TO/sendmail.8.11.6.security.cr.patch], which then prompts me for 'which file to patch.' I'm not clear on which file I _need_ to patch? Or where it would be. I've read the thread on this already, and perhaps I'll try upgrading Sendmail in its entirety. But, for my amusement, how would I patch my current (working perfectly) version of Sendmail? Second question, I'd like to re-compile my Kernel and some other things that required the sources to be installed. On one machine (where I didn't install then initially), I'm having a real challenge trying to get them (chicken and egg); using sysinstall, I'm trying to install additional distributions > sources > all. Unfortunately, the CD-ROM does not seem to be working on this box, so I'm trying via ftp... but I keep receiving this message: Warning: Can't find the `4.5-RELEASE' distribution on this server. You may need to visit a different server for the release you are trying to fetch or go to the Options menu and to set the release name to explicitly match what's available on ftp.freebsd.org (or set to "any"). Would you like to select another FTP server? Any thoughts on how to get the sources downloaded? -- Phillip To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
