Well, an elegant solution would be to mirror the current CVS repository, make any local changes you need, commit them back to your local copy of CVS, and they create your own release. At that point you could write a CD, or install from FTP. You'd still need to make a few changes on each one (IP address, name), but you could have unlimited customization. --Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
