I'm really starting with freebsd (2 weeks) and i thought you could help me 
understand the following about cvsup, which i just installed and updated my 
ports with. So far so good.

My question is about the sources and the manual is not very clear about : 
what happens after the cvsup job? Do i have to recompile something to switch 
to the new system or is it automatic? Can I backtrack in case of trouble?

I'm running 4.3 (release) right now, i'd prefer not having to reinstall it 
:-) Will cvsup allow me to switch to the upcoming 4.4? TIA
