When I try to run the program it says its not compatible... Is there a way to force it to update anyway, and is there any reason I would NOT want to force it? I'm just trying to figure out the best way to get my machine updated, which was installed from a snapshot ISO, without having to do a buildworld. Thanks!

This is correct. uname(1) reports the kernel version, and the change from 6.2-RELEASE-p2 to 6.2-RELEASE-p3 did not affect the kernel. > The following files are affected by updates, but no changes have been > downloaded because the files have been modified locally: > /etc/rc.d/jail This is correct. The version you have here is not the version which was distributed with the release -- it's the version in the latest RELENG_6_2.
