Ram=E9 > http://leonardorame.blogspot.com freebsd-update code (at last check) supported updating -RELEASE and -SECURITY systems, but not -STABLE. Because it's trying to fetch a -STABLE uname, and it doesn't have an idea of the latest time it was built (looks like a snapshot, to us humans), it is unable to move past the keys. You'll need to run -RELEASE[-p#] to update or update from source. the freebsd-update program is a shell script. read it, it's enlightening. --Tim
