It all depends on you configuration file. With cvsup you can decide witch source tree you wanna follow. Usaly its best to keep track of the lastest stable version. Unless you have a reason to do other wise. I have in my config file the tag RELENG_4_6 so i get that. I changed this by hand when 4.6 came out. P.S. Could you change the setting of you mailer to send plain text? -- Best regards, Alex The FreeBSD handbook www.freebsd.org/handbook The mailing lists http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#mailing-list How to get best results from the FreeBSD- questions mailing list http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/freebsd-questions/index.html Alternative: http://www.lemis.com/questions.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
