Hi all! Please forgive me, but this question springs from my over-developed sense of caution :) I have a box installed from the 4.3 CD set. root carrot:/# uname -a FreeBSD carrot.mip.co.za 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Sat Apr 21 10:54:49 GMT 2001 jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 Is it safe for me to run cvsup with a 'sup' file like this: ------------------ # SUP file for 4.x stable *default tag=RELENG_4 #*default host=cvsup.za.FreeBSD.org *default host=cvsup2.za.FreeBSD.org *default prefix=/usr *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress src-all ------------------ In other words, is it quite safe to assume that cvsup will correctly update my system which is actually 6 months AND one version number out of date?
