It's in the port tree.
Section 16.11 in the handbook. It's geared towards full-system backups, but that's probably a good idea anyways. Also, couldn't you use ffs snapshots as a backout plan? I don't see anything obvious to disregard everything after a snapshot in the man pages or handbook, however. I suppose you could do a recursive diff and copy the files from the snapshot to the current filesystem. -- Matt Piechota _______________________________________________ freebsd-security@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-security To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
