But, if I use cvsup4.FreeBSD.org I get a different versions of the files, which appears to be 4.8p8, which is what I want. My questions is, how do I know I've actually got 4.8p8? The only way I know to check is to read /usr/src/UPDATING, but how do I know I've got all the right files? Can I assume that if UPDATING says its a particular version, then my source is indeed current with that version? Thanks... -- Mark Edwards
