Shortly after 3.4-RELEASE shipped, I recall a few security- : and stability-related patches. Unfortunately, picking a daily snapshot can be : a bad idea. Is there a "known good" snapshot? (I assume that it'll be at least : another month before 3.5.) Personally, I had my best luck with 3.3, I've had a few problems with 3.4, though I'm not sure I can attribute them solely the to the OS. Regarding 3.5 though, is there even going to be a 3.5? I'm under the impression that 4.0 will be the next release, is this incorrect? : --Brett -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
