Thank you for this bit of very interesting information. This actually convinced me to move up to 6.2. (I formerly tried to avoid this as I'm a little bit frightened by the idea of upgrading from 5.5-rls to 6.2-rls) Are there some things I really should think of? (Besides making a Backup?) (I'm using http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/upgrade/freebsd-upgrade-5x-6x.txt as a reference and checked the RLS notes of 6.2) greets, Julian D. `alamar` Seifert -- If it looks good,And it taste good,And it feels good, There has got to be something wrong some where, So be careful. gpg fingerprint: 435D DDDA 251B 9D70 2F72 78E0 AA5F 11F4 A4ED 451E
