I installed the system with a freebsd5.4 release cd. i downloaded the patch and when I excuted it i realized that i don't have the source code of sendmail since i started the installation with de cd-rom standard installation. what am i supposed to do now? patch or upgrade. what is the easy way? i have compiled some little C code for college practices and installed some bsd-ports with make install but now i'm a little bit lost here... thanks for your help. Gonzalo.
