Yep, this will work. It'll probably take a long time to upgrade the first time, but it will work. (I mean, I assume it will, cvsup'ing your sources is one of the reasons FreeBSD is brilliant, and you can cvsup from 2.2.* to 3.0-CURRENT, and that's just the way cvsup and such systems work. Basically it'll work) Neil -- Neil Blakey-Milner nbm@rucus.ru.ac.za To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
