Not wise. New features and fixes are applied to configuration files and rc scripts regu;arly. You'll probably miss them. > STABLE is the security fix branch. Wrong. According to the handbook: 23.2.2.1 What Is FreeBSD-STABLE? FreeBSD-STABLE is our development branch from which major releases are made. Changes go into this branch at a different pace, and with the general assumption that they have first gone into FreeBSD-CURRENT for testing. This is still a development branch, however, and this means that at any given time, the sources for FreeBSD-STABLE may or may not be suitable for any particular purpose. It is simply another engineering development track, not a resource for end-users. RELENG_6 is STABLE RELENG_6_3 is for security fixes regards, Ruben _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
