changed?  Will my 6.3 binaries run unchanged on 7.0 as well?

Tim,

I am still working on my first server migration. I followed the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING, but still had problems. I also did a portupgrade -faP to make the ports as per the release notes. Unfortunately not all worked after that.

I had issues with apache22 and clamav, so I rebuilt and reinstalled both of those ports. I still don't have xorg and gnome working.

So needless to say this is a much longer update process than previous versions.

I did NOT try the binary update from CD or the new binary update utility. I believe most of the issues I have had are because of changes in the libraries specifically to the threads.

Oh, I started my update on Friday Morning.

        -Derek
