This after five weeks of rebuilding. And now, I still haven't install gnome-lite; still waiting to get the ports upgrade issue resolved. I do a ports cvsup nightly and would like to run, say, portupgrade utils nightly as well. Among the upgraders-elite on this list, which is the best way to cron this. Just a few (5, 6) years ago I only bothered with this weekly, sending myself weekend reminders to "upgrade". Now I want to put something into cron. Suggestions on using port* and <> very welcome indeed! thanks up front, people, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
