Could someone let me know how I get hold of 3.1 source. You can get the source for any version using anoncvs or cvsup. Try $ cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.FreeBSD.org:/cvs co -rRELENG_3_1_0_RELEASE \ src/... . It seems that doesn't work any more . If you don't want much, you could use cvsweb, if you want all of the source (or a major part, e.g. all of src/lib), use cvsup. (With cvsweb, find the revision which has "RELENG_3_1_0_RELEASE" in the cvs tags list, and download that.) If you don't want much, I could easily mail it to you.
