Anyway, I guess what I should do is patch this to the latest 6.3
version?
My strategy was to do a source-base upgrade to 6.3-RELEASE, and then
use freebsd-update to apply critical patches. Freebsd-update only
works on -RELEASE versions with generic kernels, but I find it much
faster and easier than trying to do upgrades from source. You also
need to keep track of ports that need updating: use portaudit for
that.
Unfortunately, this sounds about right, to me.
Well, I'm going to have to practice long and hard before trying this
on our production machines... I need to get a feeling for just how
dangerous a process this is, before trying it. It's one of those
things you want to do right the first time!
