very simple question about patches on freebsd

2007-07-29 Thread b s
dear sir,
I copy some content from http://security.freebsd.org/,

* FreeBSD-SA-07:05.libarchive.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-07:04.file.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-07:03.ipv6.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-07:02.bind.asc

FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE released.

* FreeBSD-SA-07:01.jail.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:26.gtar.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:25.kmem.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:24.libarchive.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:22.openssh.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:23.openssl.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:21.gzip.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:20.bind.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:19.openssl.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:18.ppp.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:17.sendmail.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:16.smbfs.asc
* FreeBSD-SA-06:15.ypserv.asc

FreeBSD 5.5-RELEASE released.

  Is that mean if I use 5.5-release I need to patch all the patches
above and
if I use 6.2-release I only need to patch SA-07:05 to SA-07:02 ?
 Is that right?

 I also learned from http://security.freebsd.org/patches
there two kinds of pathes, SA serial and EN serial, such as
SA-07:05/12-Jul-2007 15:08 -
SA-07:04/23-May-2007 16:18 -
SA-07:03/26-Apr-2007 23:46 -
EN-07:05/15-Mar-2007 08:10 -
EN-07:04/28-Feb-2007 18:41 -
EN-07:03/28-Feb-2007 18:41 -
EN-07:02/28-Feb-2007 18:40 -
EN-07:01/14-Feb-2007 22:33 -
SA-07:02/09-Feb-2007 20:37 -
SA-07:01/11-Jan-2007 18:36 -

what are the differences between them?

Thanks for reply.

time -l date ==> bash: -l: command not found Bug?

2005-02-24 Thread P. B. S.
"time" doesn't seem to accept any options. The first thing on the line after 
"time" is taken as the utility to execute. I need the -l option.
Am I misusing "time" or what?

Explore FreeBSD filesystem under Windows?

2004-12-22 Thread P. B. S.
How can I do that?
explore2fs is for ext2/3 only.
I want to copy files from my FreeBSD filesystem (UFS2, I think?) using 
Windows.

Re: Explore FreeBSD filesystem under Windows?

2004-12-22 Thread P. B. S.
I'm talking about 1 (one) computer! The FreeBSD partition is on the same 
hard disk; the 2 operating systems are not working at the same time. Samba, 
ftp, scp, etc. are not applicable here.
That's why I mentioned explore2fs... I wanted to be clear.

IIRC, explore2fs is a software utility that allows you to mount Linux
ext2/3 drives directly on a Windows box. There's no similar utility for
UFS. So you can't.
I know what it is. ;)
Erm... that's bad news.
