Hello.
What is
ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/4.2-20001121-BETA
(from Nov 21 13:49 GMT)
related to
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.2-RELEASE
(from Nov 20 17:49 GMT)
The RELEASE seems older than the BETA.
Liebe Grüße, Nora.

I installed 4.1-release from a .ISO from ftp.freebsd.org
I see that my locale is note set when ever I attempt to run my perl

I keep getting ...
