I'm pretty sure you can use CVSup to upgrade your sources to a specific release although I haven't tried it. Just set the tag appropriately in your cvsup config file, I believe the appropriate tag for 3.1-RELEASE is RELENG_3_1_0_RELEASE, but I'm not entirely sure. -- Greg Lewis glewis@trc.adelaide.edu.au Computing Officer +61 8 8303 3237 Teletraffic Research Centre To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
