Hi, When a security update happens, like the last one with the proc fs, what is the required drill? I usually rebuild world, rebuild kernel and reboot. I want to know if that is necessary, I don't think it is but I'm betting for the safe side (rebuilding the kernel). So, what should I do I have an options PROCFS line on my kernel, so for this update I assume I had to rebuild my kernel. But for other updates, how do I know what steps are necessary (like just rebuilding the kernel, making world, or both; also, do I have to reset)? Thanks for your patience, Mario Doria __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!
