That's for running HEAD. I would be careful doing this on a production system if one does not know what one is really doing when doing this;) > Your second option is to take the patches from r185435 and apply them > to your 7.x source tree.

There is difference, though not much. Thus just taking the patch won't work but the solution was posted like 2 weeks ago: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-jail/2008-November/000615.html Look for where it says "RELENG_7". >> lucky), I somehow was under impression (and i guess i was wrong) that >> it will come out in 7.1, > > It's far too late for any new features in 7.1 but the commit log says > it should be in 7.2. Yupp that's the plan. And the reason it will not be in 7.1-RELEASE is that noone provided the needed bribing money. See http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-jail/2008-November/000619.html (not serious here). It's been just too late. Regards, Bjoern -- Bjoern A. Zeeb The greatest risk is not taking one.
