Now what is the command to build FreeBSD? The hand book says "do not use make world, but use make buildworld", and look at /usr/src/UPDATING first. But in /usr/src/UPDATING it is said to use "make world" so I am confused. 2) starting from 4.9 RELEASE, can I cvsup to 4.10 RELENG and build FreeBSD the same way? 3) starting from 4.7 RELEASE? 4) I have a mail server running sendmail with a very customised configuration. So far I have compiled/installed my own copy of sendmail. If i update the system, it will re-install a standardized sendmail. Now if I want the update procedure to regenerate a customised sendmail, where in FreeBSD sendmail heirarchy should I put my own cf/cf/sendmail.mc and devtools/Site/site.config.m4 ?
