Don't worry, I tried sending a test message from a gmail account and it bounced too.

OK. Is that equivalent to declaring it as a make command parameter: | make buildkernel KERNCONF=MY_SYS or do I really need to put it in make.conf? >Are you sure that your kernel and world are in sync? I'm not sure I understand what 'in sync' really means. I upgraded the system from 6.1 release using the 6.2 pre-release ISOs which upgraded the binaries and installed the GENERIC kernel, but refused to upgrade the sources - so I then ran cvsup to update the sources using a supfile based on stable-supfile. Machine is 120 MHz and make buildworld is ongoing - should be time for another cup of tea I think! The only significant changes to GENERIC I need are: options PPS_SYNC options HZ=100 Cheers Geoff
