Email seems less than optimum so should I just use the ftp method which gzips all files in the snap dir and pulls them across? I have run a complete 'make world -k' here before without a hitch so is it best to get up to the latest snap level and then rely on sup to get the updates and rebuild? regards kim -- kimc@w8hd.org
