Everything is running fine, but I would feel more comfortable with a kernel not vulnerable to the Nestea (sp?) attack. So is it safe, to install a -current kernel on a 3.0-RELEASE system ? I mainly ask, because I noticed a lot of changes under src/sys recently. Or should I only checkout netinet/ip_input.c and recompile the kernel ? -- # /AS/ http://privat.schlund.de/entropy/ # # GNU is not Unix, BSD is. # To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
