If you made any changes to the source code before compiling, you may need to edit /etc/freebsd-update.conf (and in particular, the IgnorePaths and UpdateIfUnmodified directives). > In the article that appears on top of google (http://www.daemonology.net/freebsd-update/binup.html), there is section about removing kernel counters, perllocal.pod etc. It's not clear for me if that step should be taken at server's or the client's side. That's done at the server side, as part of the process of building the updates. Colin Percival
