Will they have p3? I'm afraid not. snapshots.jp.freebsd.org is AFAIK not mirrored anywhere. You could just install 4.5-RELEASE from your favorite mirror, and follow the instructions from http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.5R/errata.html (under Security Advisories) about how to patch the various security holes. You could also cvsup using the tag RELENG_4_5, and use 'make world' (http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html) to update it to 4.5-RELEASE-p3 (*not* 4.5-STABLE or 5.0-CURRENT, you want the cvs(up) tag RELENG_4_5 for this purpose, not RELENG_4 or .). For the latter options, you'll have to install the source. If you're not familiar with cvsup and/or 'make world', following the instructions from the advisories might be the easiest way. Don't forget you are vulnarable till you've applied the patches. Read the advisories for the impact and fixes.
