If you have used the cvsup file you show below you have actually gotten neither but instead gotten -CURRENT. If you want the 4.5-RELEASE sources use tag=RELENG_4_5_0_RELEASE You probably actually want RELENG_4_5 or possibly RELENG_4 instead.

No. To get a -RELEASE you must specify exactly which one you want. > > > Here is my current cvsupfile: > *default host=cvsup8.FreeBSD.org > *default base=/usr > *default prefix=/usr > *default release=cvs > *default tag=. > *default delete use-rel-suffix > > src-all > *default tag=. > ports-all > doc-all -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
