A few things - If you are using CURRENT (anything) you have posted to
the wrong list - try FreeBSD-CURRENT.

    K.

If your a newb (as you seem to be), you should be using either
5.4-RELEASE or 4.11-RELEASE

Meh. I just want to get my hands dirty a bit and learn more about FreeBSD to the point where I feel confident about the OS inside out.

If you want to use the patch branch of 5.4, your cvs tag will be:
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_4

If you want the 4.11 patch branch:
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_11

I have been using FreeBSD since 2.2.8 - and only recently have I felt
comfy enough to use CURRENT.

For you - admirable, yes - foolish, you betcha. Stick to something solid
until you know what you're doing...

Still, one must make mistakes in order to learn. Besides, my important data is on a separate partition just in case anything goes awry, and I do have a LiveCD on hand.

    Thank you though, I do appreciate it.
