Hi - I've got a 3.4 machine I want to upgrade to 4.4. I've got the 4 CD's ready to go and I suspect that if I just stuffed the install CD in I would get told what to do but this machine is rather important to me so ... can anyone explain what's going to happen if I try to upgrade 3.4 to 4.4. In particular : 1. what's going to happen to the existing installations of : Apache/PHP MySQL Samba NATD IPFW Perl I'm hoping that they will be effectively untouched (with the possible exception of IPFW - see question 2) is that correct ? 2. I recompiled the Kernel to support running IPFW after the initial installation was done. Am I going to have to redo that or is there some option I can take during the install to achieve the same effect ? 3. What's going to happen to users/groups etc ? 4. Are config files such as inetd.conf going to get overwritten ? thanks in advance richard shea. ***************************************************** Open Door Ltd PO Box 119-46 Wellington, NZ PH +64 4 384 7639 FX +64 4 384 7672 ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
