It is part of the 7.x series, man freebsd-update :) in pre-7 versions, i think you could install it from ports. If you are past GENERIC, then you should read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html Ports : you should read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports.html and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/portsnap.html Good luck, b _________________________ {Beto|Norberto|Numard} Meijome If you don't have the time to do it right, where are you going to find the time to do it over?
