I used the -i option to install any new files. Any files that it found as different I chose to install (if I hadn't personally modified them). When all was done I was left with just a couple of files that still remained as different. /etc/hosts, /etc/inetd.conf, /etc/motd, /etc/defaults/periodic.conf, /etc/defaults/rc.conf I am still getting the same problems. =( Any other suggestions or things that I can check. I am fairly new to FreeBSD and I usually try to solve the problems myself.. but I am at an impass.
