Ok, several people called and asked this question. I built everything (4.0-STABLE) on a 1Gig drive on another box and mounted it on the 2.2.8 machine. From there, I just copied everything I needed over. This machine didn't have too many users on it and I had backed everything up before I started. I will be doing my mail server soon, but I will replace the HDD on this when I do it. For the mail server, I will build a 4.1-STABLE on a 13Gig and copy the home directories over, rebuild Sendmail and bring it to 8.11 and get all the AUTH stuff working. When its time for the switch over, I will recopy the home directories and mail, onto another machine and swap drives and copy them back. I realize not everyone can upgrade this way, but it does make it soooooooo easy. Erin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
