With that argument only the latest version would be supported. That said, it is a release candidate and as such one could argue that there never had been any official support at all. In that case however the message is wrong, because when a support has ended it implies that there was support. The check in the code is this one: .if (${OPSYS} == FreeBSD && (${OSVERSION} < 1003000 || (${OSVERSION} >= 1100000 && ${OSVERSION} < 1100122))) || \ (${OPSYS} == DragonFly && ${DFLYVERSION} < 400400) It is not about RC as such, it is explicitly about 11.0-RC. My OSVERSION is 1100121. So obviously support starts with the first release. Fair enough, but then the message is still wrong unless it was supported. -- B.Walter http://www.bwct.de Modbus/TCP Ethernet I/O Baugruppen, ARM basierte FreeBSD Rechner uvm.
