Yes this is the -STABLE branch. It just happens that at the present moment 4.9-STABLE is a release candidate, which is why you see 4.9-RC. Once it's released then it will be 4.9-RELEASE and they'll increment -STABLE to 4.9.1 (or would it go to 4.10?). > 2)if I wanted, for example, 4.5 stable, or instead 4.3 stable, which > options should I put in the supfile ? Change the "default release" line in the sup file from: *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4 to: *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_5 or: *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_3 respectively. Those tags will also get any future security updates to either of those versions as well. > > Thank you very much. > Bruno You are quite welcome, chris __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
