Dear all I always get the following output from freebsd-update: ----- The following files are affected by updates, but no changes have been downloaded because the files have been modified locally: /etc/mail/freebsd.cf /etc/mail/sendmail.cf ----- As I don't think that I have any (relevant) changes in those files, I would like to pass control back to freebsd-update. I assume that I must restore the "original" files to achieve that. So the question is: where do I get the "correct" (i.e. "expected") files from or what other possibility do I have to tell freebsd-update that I want it to handle those files? Or the other way around: why does freebsd-update think that I have local modifications in those files (e.g. what does it compare against)? For reference here's the md5s of the files: # md5 /etc/mail/freebsd.cf MD5 (/etc/mail/freebsd.cf) = 5f0300de03da7892de403ee5e9990e38 # md5 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf MD5 (/etc/mail/sendmail.cf) = f9f356c02d83a578c079064bde0656ae And the box is running 9.1-RELEASE-p21. Prosperous 2015!
