What=20 would be the best upgrade path inorder to=20 minimize any problems? The server is located in a=20 co-location 5 hours drive from where I'm so a=20 network upgrade without problems would be perfect. :-) Should I just run a cvsup with RELENG 4_11 and=20 upgrade src/ports, compile a new kernel and make=20 world or should I go through the varous versions up to 4.11 step by step? Also, are there any imidiate problems upgrading 4.11 to 5.4? Thanks for your help! Best regards, Andreas W.
