Currently, my firewall and main mail host are both running 2.1.5. Obviously, these should be upgraded. I'm very familiar with Linux, but have not used the FreeBSD upgrade system before. Where should I start? Obviously, these machines cannot be down for very long. How difficult is it to upgrade FreeBSD? Any pointers on where to start are more than appreciated. TIA, -Jon. -------------- Jon Charette jc@turbinegames.com Systems Manager http://www.turbinegames.com Turbine Entertainment Software (781)-407-4135 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
