A bit unclear on the use of patch. In this post I am thinking of the recent procfs patch After using patch to patch a file in /usr/src/sys/sys -does anything have to be run to compile the patch or does it just work because it is compiled on the fly? -is this were a patch for say sendmail would one then have to kill the sendmail process, recompile sendmail and then restart it? thanks Jeff Geocrawler.com - The Knowledge Archive To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
