The best option if you loose your /usr/src is not to cvsup from scratch, but to install the source of your latest cd or downloaded tgz files, and then use cvsup to bring them up to date. (You can do it from scratch, but if you have an older copy lying around it will save you some download time so you dont have to upload ALL the files). If course if you have a T1 connection to the internet then it may actually be faster to just cvsup it from scratch.... *grin* Regards, Jacob Jacob Rhoden Phone: +61 3 9844 6102 ITS Division Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Melbourne University Mobile: +61 403 788 386 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
