When I get that done I'll list what ever issue(s) I am having. Since I have two machines, and I was thinking the second one was being tempermental that's when I decided to take the first computer and also put 3.0.11 on and had the same problem (I'll list the problem(s) I'm having when I get it finished and set up as per http://us1.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/FastStart.html#id2464512 ) While I'm compiling 3.0.11 on one system, what would I need to do to get 3.0.5 back on the other? I found portdowngrade but I've never used cvs before and tried going through the tutorials but they seem rather cryptic, or perhaps lacking because a few years back I remember them being a bit more user friendly ( http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/anoncvs.html ) Thanks for your assistance. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
