RELENG_6 (aka 6.2 stable) is the *development* branch for any FreeBSD 6.x releases. As we are closing in on 6.3 this branch obviously serves as the base for 6.3 pre-releases. You have a choice to either use the 6.2 security fix branch (RELENG_6_2) or the "stable" branch (RELENG_6) - which really is not recommended for production systems. If you really want to go back (not sure why you would want to, though) you should be able to cvsup RELENG_6_2 and do a src upgrade (or downgrade in this case). This, however, might leave you with some leftover files that were added to RELENG_6. -- /"\ Best regards, | [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ / Max Laier | ICQ #67774661 X http://pf4freebsd.love2party.net/ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News
