the problem is of applications you use on a system also FreBSD is YK2 compiland because it stores infoes about dates in seconds from the epoch 1st January 1970 so it has not problems with year 2000. the problem is eventually is some applications which could crach becaues they are not YK2 compilant. So this is not a problem of FreeBSD. As far as I know GNU is rewriting all programs in order to make all of them YK2 compilant Rick On Wed, 3 Mar 1999, Mike Frizzell wrote: > Which versions of FreeBSD are considered Y2K compliant?
