It's having trouble parsing the bin.inf file.

I checked that, uppercase "P", as it is in the other *.inf files I looked at. All seems to be in order. Anyway, the 2.2.n CD is right around the corner, right? Considering that I have the 2..1.6 bin & sbin files still installed here, to complete the security upgrade, would you recommend I recompile all of the /bin, /usr/bin, /sbin & /usr/sbin files? The 2.1.7 source code for these did get installed. A 'make world' I suppose? Barry Masterson jbarrm@panix.com >--->--->--->--->---> FreeBSD 2.1.7-R <---<---<---<---<---<
